CHAPTER XIV THE UNMASKING OF JERRY "Truly," said Miss Javotte, "I like that! Lend one's gown to a dirty Cindertail like you! I should be mad indeed!" Cinderella fully expected this refusal, and was rejoiced at it, for she would not have known what to do if her sister had lent her the gown. Crown'd their brows with closing flow'rs “He’s a cattleman,” said the boy, as if that explained everything..
