"I'll let Maggie bring you drink." "Want my dolly," murmured Toddie. I found the knotted towels, took the dirty things up gingerly and threw them upon the bed. "Now want to shee wheels go wound," said Toddie. I hurried out of the room and slammed the door. I looked at my watch it was half-past eight; I had spent an hour and a half with those dreadful children.
Finally, the pennies were arranged in four rows, two of three each and two of two each, and Budge counted the threes and Toddie verified the twos; and Budge was adding the four sums together, when footsteps were heard descending the stairs.
Helen opened her arms, and Toddie threw himself into them, sobbing: "Mam MA! shing 'Toddie one-boy-day!" How uncomfortable a man CAN feel in the society of a dearly-loved sister and an incomparable brother-in-law I never imagined until that short drive.
Snatching it up, with a violent exclamation, there dropped from it one of these infernal dolls. A howl resounded from the doorway. "You tookted my dolly out of her k'adle want to wock my dolly oo-ee- ee!" I called the girl, and asked where the key was that locked the door between my room and the children's. "Please sir, Toddie threw it down the well."
"He boo hoo went to hoo light his boo hoo hoo pipe, an' I just let the boo hoo whip go against to the goat, an' then he scattooed." "Nashty old goat scaddooed," said Toddie, in corroboration. "Well, walk right home, and tell Maggie to wash and dress you," said I. "O Harry," pleaded Alice, "after they've been in such danger!
Arrived at the breakfast-table, they eyed with withering contempt an irreproachable cutlet, some crisp-brown potatoes of wafer-like thinness, and a heap of rolls almost as light as snowflakes. "We don't want done of this kind of breakfast," said Budge. "Of course we don't," said Toddie, "when we's so awful full of uvver fings.
Then that imp was moved, for the first time that morning, to something like good-nature, and he exclaimed with a giggle: "My! What big stomachs we'd have when we got done, wouldn't we?" At the breakfast table Toddie wept again, because I insisted on beginning operations before Budge came. Then neither boys knew exactly what he wanted.
In the contemplation of all the shy possibilities my short chat with Miss Mayton had suggested, I had quite forgotten my dusty clothing and the two little living causes thereof. II. The Fate of a Bouquet Next morning at breakfast Toddie remarked, "Ocken Hawwy, darsh an awfoo funny chunt upstairs. I show it to you after brepspup."
Burton was glad to see Toddie come out of a brown study and hear him say: "I fink that placesh where the river is bwoke off izh the nicest placesh." "What does the child mean?" asked his aunt. "Don't you know where we went last year, an' you stopped us from seein' how far we could hang over, Uncle Harry?" said Budge. "Oh Passaic Falls!" exclaimed Mr. Burton. "Yes, that's it," said Budge.
He froed away a cigar the other day, he was in such a hurry when a wasp stung me, an' Toddie picked the cigar up and ate it, an' it made him AWFUL sick." The last-named incident did not affect Mrs. Mayton deeply, perhaps on the score of inapplicability to the question before her. Budge went on: "An' wasn't he good to me today?
