And I know from Aunt Sanna that you're a long way ahead of your own people." "I don't know whether it's 'ahead' or not," said Julia, with a worried laugh. "I suppose only God knows the real value of finger bowls and toothbrushes and silk stockings! I SUPPOSE it's 'ahead'!" She opened the Tolands' side gate as she spoke, and they went into the bare garden.

Dolls and blocks were scattered on the hearth rug, and Julia sat her daughter down among them, and jumped up with a radiant face to greet the newcomer. "Aunt Sanna you darling! And you're going to spend the night?" Julia cried out joyfully, with her first kisses. "What a dear thing for you to do! But you're wet?" "No, I dropped everything in my room," Miss Toland said.

Finally the children came to a region where there were no more trees. "I see no more trees," said Sanna. "Perhaps the road is so broad that we cannot see them on account of the snow," answered the boy. "Yes, Conrad," said the girl. After a while the boy remained standing and said: "I don't see any trees now myself, we must have got out of the woods, and also the road keeps on rising.

When I go out to The Alexander now, and remember my old busy days there, and walking to chapel with Aunt Sanna, in the fresh, early mornings I don't know it makes me almost a little sad!" "Don't speak of it," said Barbara.

Last night, old Sanna carried so many buckets of water into the house that I asked her why she was doing that, and she said that if I would promise not to tell any one she would tell me, and I said I would be sure not to tell any one, and she said that early to-morrow morning when father was out hunting, she would set the kettle full of water, throw thee into it and boil thee; but we will get up quickly, dress ourselves, and go away together."

And in a second they were all about her, her first kiss on the wet cheek of Aunt Sanna, the second to her mother "Evelyn, you were a darling to come way across the city, and Marguerite, you were a darling to bring those precious angels" and then the old doctor's kiss, and Richie's kiss, and a pressure from his big bony fingers. Julia half knelt to embrace little Scott Marbury.

And even larger ones which one saw only later were fast in the ice and skirted the glacier like a wall of debris. "There must have been very much water here, because there is so much ice," remarked Sanna. "No, that did not come from any water," replied her brother, "that is the ice of the mountain which is always on it, because that is the way things are." "Yes, Conrad," said Sanna.

Lina saw this and said, 'Listen, old Sanna, why are you fetching so much water? 'If you will never repeat it to anyone, I will tell you why. So Lina said, no, she would never repeat it to anyone, and then the cook said: 'Early tomorrow morning, when the forester is out hunting, I will heat the water, and when it is boiling in the kettle, I will throw in Fundevogel, and will boil him in it.

He took out the cloth in which grandmother had wrapped a pasteboard-box and several paper packages and put it about his shoulders for greater warmth. He also took the two pieces of wheat-bread out of his wallet and gave Sanna both. The child ate them most eagerly. A part of them, however, she gave back to Conrad as she saw he was not eating anything. He accepted it and ate it.
