Here he aroused the proprietor, who had been sleeping peacefully, and purchased a bottle of milk for a dollar. But in running back to the house Da-da slipped on some ice and landed on one ear. Incidentally, the bottle of milk was broken. Back went Da-da on the run, and again he got the storekeeper out of bed. This time the precious milk cost two dollars for the bottle, but Da-da "should worry" when it was going to make "Snookums" happy. So he raced home and climbed cautiously up the steps, which were covered with ice. Into the house he crept quietly, so as not to disturb the precious darling. But it was dark in the house and Da-da's only match soon burned out. The very next step, and he went headlong over a chair, breaking the second bottle of milk. He was making a few remarks on the subject in no gentle tone, when "Snookums'" mother appeared and cautioned him against making such a disturbance, since Snookums was sleeping so peacefully.
