It's on your account and theirs that I don't intend to have anybody make any mistake about me....

_Now_ do you understand me, Dolly ?" "Yes." "Is it agreeable ?" "Y-es." And, flushing: "But I did not mistake you, Louis; and there is no reason not to come, even if I am alone." He laughed, lighted a cigarette, and stroked the kitten.
"It's an amusing experiment, anyway," he said.
"Have you never tried it before ?" "Oh, yes, several times." "Were the several times successes ?" "Not one!" he said, laughing.
