Looking around the luckless boy saw his headgear in the middle of the font and turned to rescue it. The water became deeper, until he stood in it almost to his arm-pits.,“Glory must git better, nothin’s no fun no more,” blurted Moses.,“Billy! You said you weren’t hurt, but you are!” Alarmed, she rose and switched on the light, pulled off the bandage, and turned faint at the wreck of the bright, clean boy who had left her that afternoon. “My boy! You’re dreadfully hurt! I must send for Doctor Carter, and—”,A whoop startled her and she turned to see a handsome boy racing up on a brown pony, also carrying a basket.，“I don’t give two whoops ef he does,” Betty was bubbling with suppressed mirth.，She glanced down the road, and swiftly around. Not a soul in sight. Obedience was inevitable.，Mrs. Wopp obligingly gave as an encore, “There were ninety and nine,” apropos of nothing whatever.

Beaming from behind a promising array of cups and saucers, his portly wife presented a countenance of aggressive hospitality.

He knew Jean. She would manage somehow, no matter what the difficulty. And he did not trust her without reason. She was already in her shining misty robe that was to change her from Rain to Dew; but she caught the gray mantle, covered herself with it as she ran, and was in the wings almost as soon as Billy.,He had hardly recovered from his laugh when two little girls appeared at the gateway. “There’s Twinnies!
