“I carn’t think what’s happened to my carrots this year,” said Mrs. Wopp, vexedly, after a time. “Hardly any hev come up, an’ them as did come, aint growed much. We’ll shorely not hev many carrot puddin’s nor pies this winter, nor mulligans neither.” The concluding part of this speech was of vital interest to Moses, who delighted in all the delicacies mentioned.

“Ain’t she her own aunt?” hazarded Mr. Wopp, abstractedly thrusting his hammer into his boot top and scratching his bald head with a pair of pincers. “Billy! You’re freezing!” She sprang up and turned on the light. Presently, Moses made for the yard and on his way, offered tribute to Betty by standing on his head on the mat at the door. “And what’s the ‘chinning’ to be about?” she questioned, sitting on the bedside; “the fortune?”.
