He'll have a fit if she doesn't! Wasn't Miss Sniffen horrible the other day? When we were having such a good time! I must go no, I guess I'll wait till you've been up and found out. Then I can tell him." Polly waited and waited, wondering, after five minutes, why Miss Sterling did not come back. "Dear me!" she thought anxiously, "I hope Mrs. Adlerfeld hasn't fainted or anything!"
"I hope so," was the reply; "but call me if she should grow worse." "Yes, I will, though you couldn't do any good," she amended. "I could get a doctor for her." "I don't see how!" Mrs. Albright gazed questioningly into the steady gray eyes. This was a new Miss Sterling. "You can't do anything with Miss Sniffen." "There are other people in the world besides Miss Sniffen.
"I've got something!" insisted Miss Crilly, writhing with pain. Miss Sniffen appeared at the door with a bowl of steaming water and a bundle of cloths. "I'm going to put these on," she announced briskly. "I tried hot water first thing," said Mrs. Albright. "It didn't do any good." The superintendent gave no response. She was busy administering the remedy.
There's nothing like getting used to things. It's a great help." "It is a shame, Miss Nita!" Polly was saying. "To think of it that you can't curl your hair even to go to a wedding! I wonder if father or mother could do anything." "Oh, no!" cried Miss Sterling, in sudden terror. "Don't, I beg of you, let them say a word to Miss Sniffen! She'd turn me right out!"
You talk as if you'd like to keep me in prison, same as Miss Sniffen keeps those poor dears over there. I know better, but it sounds that way." "Forgive me! I'm getting piggish again!" "No, but I wish you weren't quite so suspicious. I'll have to make a bargain with you, how will this do? If anybody steals my heart away, I'll notify you at once." David stood up straight. "I must go," he said.
Gunnip He's no good! Father says he's little more than a quack and he isn't safe. I wish father could see her; but he can't unless he is called. It is too bad! I believe I'll go straight to Mr. Randolph!" "I don't dare have you," returned Mrs. Albright. "He would, of course, favor the Home, and if Miss Sniffen should hear of it " "Before I say anything I shall make him promise not to tell."
"Oh, she isn't an especial friend, but I feel sorry for her because she has to wear such old clothes and she loves pretty things." "Why doesn't she get pretty things, then, while she is about it?" "She can't!" cried Polly. "She has to take what Miss Sniffen gives her." "Oh, I see! Well, I reckon I'd look sour if I were dependent on that Miss Sniffen for clothes." Polly chuckled.
The slight girlish form of Mushymush with outstretched hands stood between the exasperated Pirate Prodigy and the Boy Chief. "Forbear," she said sternly to Chitterlings; "you know not what you do." The two youths paused. "Hear me," she said rapidly. "When captured in a confectioner's shop at New Rochelle, E. J. Sniffen was taken back to poverty. She resolved to become a schoolmistress.
"It has come to a pretty pass if our belongings have to be tampered with before we even are allowed to see them! I think somebody ought to tell the president." The incident, however, passed with talk, nobody being willing to risk her residence in behalf of Juanita Sterling. When Polly Dudley heard of it she waxed wrathful. "I never liked Miss Sniffen," she declared, "and now I just hate her!"
"It's a lovely place, and there has to be rules where there's so many." "There don't have to be hair-crimping rules, Mrs. Prindle huh!" As the curly-headed maker of the hated law walked across the lawn. Miss Castlevaine sent her an annihilating glance. "Is that Miss Sniffen?" queried Miss Mullaly, adjusting her eyeglasses. Miss Castlevaine nodded.
