"These eggs hatch at the end of three weeks they don't sprout and then we have a lovely family of soft downy chickies; little puff balls that we can cuddle under our wings and love dearly!" "Have you been sitting upon the eggs very long?" Raggedy asked. "Neither one of us has kept track of the time," said one hen. "So we do not know!
"Poor chickies," said Phronsie, and looked lovingly at the rest of the toast and butter on the plate; and while Polly fed it to her, listened with absorbed interest to all the particulars concerning each and every chick in the Henderson hen-coop. "Mother," said Polly, towards evening, "I'm going to sit up with Ben to-night; say I may, do, mother." "Oh no, you can't," replied Mrs.
And all the dolls were happy when they heard of Raggedy's adventure and they did not have to wait long before they were all taken out to see the new chickies. Jeanette was a new wax doll, and like Henny, the Dutch doll, she could say "Mamma" when anyone tipped her backward or forward. She had lovely golden brown curls of real hair.
I'll bust 'em sure as shootin'!" shouted The Hopper. They cowered before him; Muriel wept softly; Billie played with his chickies, disdainful of the world's woe. The Hopper, holding the two angry men at bay, was enjoying his command of the situation. "You gents ain't got no business to be fussin' an' causin' yer childern trouble. An' ye ain't goin' to have these pretty jugs to fuss about no more.
"Oh, Aunt Persis, see what they've gone and done." "What is it, child?" "You said that little chickies came out of eggs." There was no further pretense of whispering on Celia's part. Her voice rose in a tragic wail. "And now he's going to eat up those eggs, and I wanted to save 'em to make chickies of. Oh, dear, dear!"
And, besides we've got to prepare somebody to love these things after we're gone. We can work together and train Billie to be the greatest collector in America!" "Please, father," urged Roger as Talbot frowned and shook his head impatiently. Billie, struck with the happy thought of hanging one of his chickies on the Christmas tree, caused them all to laugh at this moment.
She lifted the box away and gave a little squeal of surprise and happiness. "Oh you dear old Hennypennies!" she cried, lifting both old hens from their nests. "You have hidden your nests away back here and now you have one, two, three, four twenty chickies!" and as she counted them, Marcella placed them in her apron; then catching up Raggedy Ann, she placed her over the new little chickies.
There was a good deal of discussion, but it all ended in everybody's agreeing to Jane's idea. The moment after it had done so, with stiff, furry reluctance, like that of a cat when you want to nurse it, and its ideas are not the same as yours, old Nurse came in. 'Well, chickies, she said, 'are you feeling very dull? 'Oh, no, Nurse dear, said Anthea; 'we're having a lovely time.
But it isn't hurt a bit, and I've brought it home all safe, 'cause I know you love your chickies, and Tabby ate lots of 'em," said the childish voice in its most conciliatory tone. "Why didn't you fling it over the wall, as I did the cat?" asked Mr.
But she pulled up again fifty yards away and came back on foot and stood a very respectable distance away from the infected spot. "I'm so sorry, chickies," she said kindly; "that's a wretched visitor for the holidays. Have you been very bad?" "I go nearly lack in the face," said Max, not without pride. "Is mother with you?" said the lady, Mrs. Gowan by name, somewhat anxiously, "and your father?"
