Harriet sat down, inwardly glad that her part of the story was told.
It wouldn't do for me to go to sea really. I'd get so hungry between meals that I'd gnaw the masts off short." "I really can't eat another mouthful!" exclaimed Tommy. "I gueth I'll go up on deck and walk thome." "And I guess you will stay right here and wash the dishes with me," commanded Margery Brown. "Do you think I am going to wash them alone, while you promenade on deck? Not I!"
I gueth he knowth. He wath brought up on a bean farm." "Then I'll take the beefsteak and never mind the nourishment," declared Jane, who was not particularly fond of beans.

"Irving, can you carry some fudge to Arthur?" continued Ruth, heaping up one of her daintiest saucers. "If you will take this without spilling any, you shall have some to take home with you." "I gueth tho," said Irving with an angelic smile, feeling himself the hero of the occasion. "Just give the dish to Arthur and come right back," said Charlotte decidedly.
"I don't think thhe will ever reach the top of the mountain." "Take her away! Take her away!" screamed Margery. "Yes. Be off with you," ordered Jane. "You have about as much sympathy as these rocks." "Is Margery seriously hurt?" called the guardian. "Yeth. Thhe thkinned her nothe," Tommy informed her. "I gueth thhe will be all right, after thhe hath grown thome new thkin."
"Now, girls, do you know where you are?" asked the guardian, turning to her charges. "Lost in the wilds of New Hampshire," answered Jane dramatically. "No, not lost. We shall soon be among friends.

"Hath Buthter broken her nothe?" questioned Tommy. "I think not," replied Miss Elting. "Come, get started, Tommy. Mr. Grubb will assist you. I shall have to look after Margery's bruised face." "I don't need any athithtanthe. I gueth I know how to get up there by mythelf. Bethideth, I don't want to thkin my nothe." "Wait!" commanded Jane threateningly. "No, I'm going. Look out! I'm coming.
