"De booful itty doggies," however, did not behave very well; they cried and howled, and Dumps insisted on taking hers up and rocking him to sleep. "Hit's er gittin' so late, honey," urged Mammy, "let 'um stay in de box, an' go ter bed now, like good chil'en." "I know I ain't, Mammy," replied Dumps.
Jennie clambered up the gate as children do, and peering over, suddenly espied what she took to be me, striding towards the house, at a swinging pace, and followed by two poodles. "Poppa," she cried, "how cute of you! Only to think of you bringing home two doggies!
I complained of our neighbour, for I thought he had an evil eye, and might some day do the children some mischief. "Our landlord, however, would not listen to my complaints. "'Dinna ye fash yersel, Geordie, he said to his herdsman, 'or take notice of what the women-folk say. It is a douce baistie, and he'll nae harm bairns nor doggies.
