However a surgical operation with needle and thread would restore health, and Norah stanched the wound with her pinafore and prepared to enjoy life to the full. The doll continued to smile gaily as though Spartan sawdust ran in her veins.，There! Now he had an idea. She should have that rare postage stamp from Mozambique, she certainly should!
