'I may spend the cold weather in Calcutta, or go into camp with the Dovedells I should like that. 'Mrs. Innes, cried the nearest schoolgirl, 'we are coming tomorrow to see all the lovely things in your boxes, may we? 'Do, duckies. But mind, no copying of them by durzies in the veranda. They're all Paris things Coulter's and you know he doesn't copy well, does he?
"It was you that did it, was it, you wicked mizzable kitty?" burst forth the bereaved Dotty behind the swinging broomstick. "I must strike you with the soft end. I will! I will! If I'd known before that you'd eat live duckies! O, pussy, pussy, when I've given you my own little bones on a plate with gravy!" "Whose little bones did you say, my dear!" asked Abner.
"I will write and tell you all about it," he answered, laughing. "And I will send you pictures of muzhiks and things. Run into the house. It is a hideous damp night. I would rather stay with you than go to Moscow. Good night! Good night, duckies! God bless you!" And he ran down the steps and jumped into the brougham.
The anguish of the children was painful to be behold. Dotty's grief affected her somewhat like the jumping toothache. Who could have carried away those dear, dear little duckies? Who indeed? About this time the unprincipled old cat was found in the cellar, wiping her lips and purring over a little soft, speckled down.
"Is that what kitty's claws were made for?" "So I am told. The truth is, she behaves much better for a cat than you do for a little girl." Dotty scowled at her feet and patted them with the broom. "And better than I do for a young man." "But she ate my duckies so there!" "And Prudy's too," said Abner. "But Prudy doesn't beat her for it.
"Well, my little idea was white walls with little Delft-blue borders of waddling duckies; white dotted Swiss curtains in the brace of sunny southern-exposure windows, with little Delft-blue borders of more waddling duckies; and dear little nursery rhymes painted in blue on the headboard to keep baby's dreams sweet." " baby's dreams sweet! I ask you, is that cute, Nick?
