He had hardly recovered from his laugh when two little girls appeared at the gateway. “There’s Twinnies! Come in, Kiddies, and see my new sister,” he called, as they hesitated. “Don’t, mother! Mother, don’t come in here! Don’t come in the same room with me,—I’m not fit for— O mother, I’ve hurt Jimmy for life!” “Do you need it right away?” Billy stood his wheel against the steps and flung his books on the porch table. “That’s Flash; he always works for his breakfast,” Billy pompously approved..
