Betty was thoroughly engrossed in her subject. Her story was entirely of birds and flowers and fairies.

“I’ve watched, and called to him from the inside; but he only stands and mews. Did you ever see him climb up and open the screen?” The words were hardly out of his mouth when the sound of an approaching team was heard. Betty eyed ruefully the silk shawl she had flung on the ground. “Look he’s been here,” said Betty, pointing to a small footprint in the moist soil, “An’ he’s headed down the crick.” “My eye!” exclaimed Clarence, mockingly shading his eyes from his sister’s radiance, “She’s got her joy-bells on, what’s the stunt?”.
