Mrs. Bennett wished May Nell to be in the open air as much as possible; and this meant a new experience for Billy, which he accepted with tolerable grace. This threatened catastrophe had considerable weight with St. Elmo who, in spite of Betty’s discouraging words, still had a lurking hope that he too might be privileged to see the “faywies” some day.

I never heard sich moosic, not sence the circus.” “Wisht I hed a chance to holler into one of them brass dinner-horns, too,” he grumbled. A three-legged rooster appeared.
