What do you think about it ?" "I think if Adam had it he'd be rich from it in ten years," she said, quietly.
"Then you DO think it's a bully idea," he cried.

"You WOULD try it if we had a chance ?" "I might," said Kate.
"You know," he cried, jumping up in excitement, "I've never mentioned this to a soul, but I've got it all thought out.

Would you go to see your brother Adam, and see if you could get him to take an interest for young Adam?
He could manage the money himself." "I wouldn't go to a relative of mine for a cent, even if the children were starving," said Kate.

"Get, and keep, THAT clear in your head." "But you think there is something in it ?" he persisted.
"I know there is," said Kate with finality.

"In the hands of the right man, and with the capital to start." "Kate, you can be the meanest," he said.
"I didn't intend to be, in this particular instance," she said.
