"Whoop it up, Dollums," said Bernice, laughing, "out with it, you little rascal. Did she hold up her hands in horror?" "She did NOT," said Dolly, with dignity. "She said, that if Alicia chose, she might invite the gentleman to tea on Friday, and that she would see to it that there was a nice tea-party prepared for his benefit. There, WHO'S a good ambassador?"
She's as stubborn as a perfectly good mule! Aren't you, Dollums?" "I s'pect I am," and the golden head nodded. "But only when I care enough to be stubborn. As to this party, I don't care what sort it is, 'cause I know it will be lovely, anyway. That is, if we have it.
I'd give anything to see mother now. I wish I was home in my own room." "You'll be there soon enough. I s'pose we'll go Wednesday." "Wednesday! that seems ages off!" "Why, Dollums, to-morrow, you can say Wednesday is day after to- morrow! That's what I always do if I want to hurry up the days. But I don't want to hurry up our days in New York! No sir-ee! I love every one of 'em!

"Come back to the twentieth century! We mourn our loss!" "Yes, come back, Dollums," said Dotty. "There are other rooms full of stuff awaiting your approval." Dolly laughed. "Oh, you girls don't appreciate What you're seeing.

Dotty's brightness cheered up the others, and as they drove through the park, there were many sights of interest, and after a time the talk drifted from the subject that had so engrossed them.
So the four went up to their rooms, and saying good-night, they closed the door of communication between. "What's the matter, Dollums?" asked Dotty, as she saw tears in the blue eyes. "Nothing, Dot, only don't talk about that gold thing, will you? I just simply can't stand it if you do!" "'Course I won't if you don't want me to, only what DO you s'pose DID become of it?" "There you go!
We've none too much time to dress." Dolly and Dotty went to their room, and it was rather a silent Dolly who sat down to the dressing-table to brush her golden locks. "Whatamatter, Dollums?" said her chum. "Sad at thoughts of going home?" "Oh, no; really, Dot, I'm glad to go home. We've had a magnificent time here, but I'm well, I s'pect I'm homesick." "So'm I, a little, now that you mention it.
