- Here we have a girl looking starry-eyed at an egg beater, which proves that Mr. Dohanos can do almost impossible things with paint; also that love is blind and the girl will live happily ever after, although a woman's work is never done. Well, what other shower boodle is Nancy Newlyengaged collecting? There's a machine to prevent burning toast, a mixing-bowl nest, a tin-can nest, and let's hope one of those boxes contains a cookbook nest. Would it mean to say that Nancy probably can't cook water without melting the pot? And that her young man can't wipe dishes without dropping them? Ah, well, love conquers adversity, they'll both learn. Is that cat one of the shower presents? If so, she'll get caught in that mousetrap.
