Writing materials were kept in readiness here for these purposes a due array of quills, paper, inkhorn, wafers, sealing-wax, sand-box, and lights.
He inquired whether I had any dutiable articles, and wrote for my signature a declaration in the negative; and then he lifted a sand-box, beneath which was a little heap of silver coins. On this delicate hint I asked what was the usual fee, and was told that fifteen pauls was the proper sum.
"Mother," asked Sunny Boy that night, as he sat on the foot-board of the bed in his blue pajamas and watched her brush her hair. They were all tired after the excitement of the picnic and the finding of the bonds, and every one was going to bed at Sunny's bed time, even Grandpa. "Mother, will I take my sand-box to the seashore?" "Oh, no, precious," she assured him.
Let 'em air till night. I want to play in the sand-box." "Ray Anderson and me's going to play in the sand-box," said Shirley. "You can't come you take all the toys." "Oh, Shirley, how cross you are!" cried Rosemary, aghast at the frown on Shirley's pretty forehead. "Don't be so cranky, darling. Sarah will play in one end of the box and you play in the other."

At one end were Sunny Boy's swing and sand-box, and the center was in thick, green grass. Mondays the grass belonged to Harriet, who used it to walk on when she hung out the clean clothes, but other days Sunny had the whole yard pretty much to himself. There was a little gate cut in the fence on one side of the yard. Daddy Horton had made the gate for Sunny Boy and Nelson and Ruth.
"Oh, no, Hugh," she begged, "Don't send them back, please don't. I won't run away again, ever. Honestly." "Will you promise not to leave the yard again unless you first ask Rosemary or Winnie or Aunt Trudy?" asked the doctor. "Yes," nodded Shirley instantly. "Well then, if you are not going to run away again, I'll keep the sand-box," decided Doctor Hugh.

But he looked on every thing that was shewn him with the utmost indifference; nor did he take notice of any one thing, except a wooden sand-box, which he seemed to admire, and turned it two or three times over in his hand. Next morning after breakfast, a party of us set out for the country, to try if we could not get a nearer and better view of the volcano.
