And she had learned by experience that some grown folks never learn the game of "dress-up." But Aunt Effie, the this-morning Aunt Effie, whose eyes looked rested and smiling, seemed very much as though she might understand dress-up, very much. Mary Jane decided to try her. "I'm Aunt Effie come to visit," she said solemnly.
But, you see, I expected to just be sittin’ by Jack’s bed and I never thought to bring any of those dress-up kind of things," she sighed. Janice returned to the bed side. "Hadn’t you better begin to dress?" she howled suggestively. "They are going to dine here before going to the theater and dinner is ordered in an hour." "Maybe I had," said Aunt Mary, "but—oh dear—I don’t know what I will wear!"
ZOO. One would not think so; but if you wont believe in anyone who is not dressed-up, why, we must dress-up for you. It was you who invented all this nonsense, not we. THE ELDERLY GENTLEMAN. But do you expect us to be impressed after this? ZOO. I don't expect anything. I know, as a matter of experience, that you will be impressed.
It all began in this way: Molly rushed in one morning, her face all aglow with the importance of the news she had to tell. "Oh, Aunt Ada," she cried, "they are going to have a dress-up party at Green Island hall, fancy costumes, you know, and we are all invited, you and Uncle Dick and we children. The Ludlows have come and it is Miss Kitty's birthday. Will you go? and what can we wear?"
Rebecca's tone was somewhat censorious, "your father's been so poor perhaps he couldn't afford breast-pins, but I should have thought he'd have given your mother a wedding ring when they were married; that's the time to do it, right at the very first." "They didn't have any real church dress-up wedding," explained Clara Belle extenuatingly.
"Laws, mother!" said Miss Mela; "what you got that old thing on for? If I'd 'a' known you'd 'a' come down in that!" "Coonrod said it was all right, Mely," said her mother. Miss Mela explained to the Marches: "Mother was raised among the Dunkards, and she thinks it's wicked to wear anything but a gray silk even for dress-up."
And these," dangling the false fronts before their eyes, "these lay reposing on the top of the dresser. I brought them along to show you girls how fine they are two grades, one for every day and one for dress-up days." "Don't shake them so close over my cocoa, please," cried Landis, removing her cup beyond the reach of Azzie's scalps.
"What form of art," he asked, "are you contemplating in your studies at the present time in London?".... Before this question could be dealt with at all adequately, the two small boys became active in the garden beating in everybody to "dress-up" before supper. The secretary, Teddy, came in a fatherly way to look after Mr. Direck and see to his draperies. Section 9 Mr.
Between the two alcove rooms, occupied by Dorothy and Tavia, was a long wardrobe closet. Into this both girls put such belongings as might not be used daily a sort of "dress-up" clothes' closet. It was in this closet that street apparel was placed, so that on the night of the auto ride both Dorothy and Tavia had something to hang on the padded hooks there.
Not a bit of caution or of fear about my sham dress-up, as the bad folk put it afterward; the whole of such thoughts was beyond me outright, and no thought of any thing came inside me, only to wait and wonder. "'This corpse belongeth here, as I am informed, said the man, who seemed to be the master of it, and was proud to be so.
