“Why, you see,” Billy hesitated, for he was modest, “sister has a class of us heathen boys, and—well, you see, it’s this way; sister says,—she’s partial, you know,—she says I have influence; if I don’t giggle the others won’t, and she gets on O. K.” “Like the lazy coward he is,” Billy tartly interrupted. Her birthday would fall on the last Saturday in September and she was sure to be allowed a party.

A discreet hint must also be thrown out that anyone not so fortunate as to be the possessor of a spare carrot could bring silver.
