One big boy was whistling a jig tune, and clapping on his knee. "That's old Mrs. McGiven," explained Hanny. "The school-children go there for cake and candy and slate pencils, because hers have such nice sharp points. And Biddy Brady!" Jim was with the boys. He gave Hanny a nod and laughed and joined the whistling. "Oh, Jim Biddy's baby is crying " "Come, start up again, Biddy.
"Some of the children were very pretty. But that Biddy Brady I can see her yet." The very next day Daisy drew two pictures, and held them before Hanny. "Why, that's Biddy Brady!" the little girl said, with a bright wondering laugh. "And that's old Mrs. McGiven! They're splendid! How could you do it?" "I don't know. It came to me." Mrs. Craven said the old lady was excellent.
McGiven still sold candies and cakes, and slate-pencils, and, oh, Washington pie that was almost as great a necessity to childhood then, as chewing-gum is now. Mr. Jasper brought up the pictures when he escorted his wife.
