Flyaway was frightened, and clung to Prudy for protection. "Don't the gemplum love little gee urls?" said she, in a voice as low and sad as a dying dove's. Mr. Poindexter laughed, and stroked the beautiful floss lovingly. "Just turn your sweet little face this way, dear child; that's all." "O, my shole! Must I turn my face to my back!" said Flyaway, bewildered.
"Now I just mean to tell you something nice, for you might as well know it and be happy a day longer: mother and you and I are going to Indianapolis to-morrow with Dotty going in the cars." "O!" exclaimed the child, whirling about like a leaf in a breeze. "Going to 'Naplis, yidin' in the cars! O my shole!"

Where you s'pose um goin'?" Kitty winked again and Dinah sulked. Flyaway answered her own question. "Diny, dat worm gone see his mamma."
Katie came and peeped in with her, opening her small mouth and drawing her lips over her teeth, as her grandfather did when he shaved. "See, Flyaway, you haven't any dimples at all!" said Dotty, primping a little. "Your hair isn't smooth and curly like mine; it sticks up all over your head, like a little fan."
