It's clear, I know, and decided, but " She waved the subject aside, as if it were not worth discussing longer, and asked, "What do you think of the twinnies?" Her tone, though laughingly contemptuous, was gentleness itself, and young Allyne looked up, rather puzzled. "Why, they seem nice, sweet girls; don't you think so?"
She has a little fever, and the doctors say we may need to work with her part of the night. Father said to ask if you would go to bed now, so you can get up early in the morning and help us. I am to stay with Prudence to-night, but you may have to take turns in the morning. And you'll have to get breakfast, too. So father thinks you would better go to bed. Will you do that, twinnies?" "Will we!"
Silvy, in her pretty nurse's cap and apron, was kept busy waiting upon her mischievous cousins. Debby Field-Mouse often ran over from her cottage, which she had named the Cosy Retreat, bringing dainties for the poor bruised twinnies to eat. Poor Granny Whiskers' nerves were badly shaken. "Ah, Zenas," she moaned, "take us to our dear attic home before some one is killed.
Marm Lisa looked up dumbly and wonderingly at first, but the mind stirred, thought flowed in upon it, a wave of pain broke over her heart, and she remembered all; for remembrance, alas, is the price of reason. 'Lost! my twinnies, all lost and gone! she whispered brokenly, with long, shuddering sobs between the words. 'I look look look; never, never find!
You promised me that we should all go home safe and sound, and there lay those precious twinnies, all bandages and plasters. Ah, dearie me! What will happen next? Poor Debbie's house was burned; Wink and Wiggle are all smashed up. Zenas Whiskers, I say we must pack up and go home tomorrow."
"Are you all better, Teenty?" whispered Tiny, as they drove home to Gray Rock Bungalow. "Ah, yes, all better, Tiny," lisped Teenty. "You all said I daresn't cut it. I think it is lovely to wear a short tail. Now you and I are real honest-and-true twinnies again, Tiny." The midsummer days were full of good times.
"Can you fix it, Limpy-toes?" asked Jack Rabbit. "Maybe," sighed Limpy-toes, "but it will take all winter. I shall have to haul it home in pieces. Well, I am glad the twinnies aren't killed." "They ought to be walloped," growled Scamper. "It's a shame, Limpy-toes, that's what it is!" It was many weeks before Wink and Wiggle were able to leave their pine-needle beds.
Us?" demanded Lark, indignantly and ungrammatically. "Do you think we can carry home oysters for the the personal consumption of this Babbling young prince? Not so! Let Fairy go after the oysters! She can carry them home tenderly and appreciatively. Carol and I can't! We don't grasp the beauty of that man's nature." "Oh, yes, twinnies, I think you'll go, all right.
She can have her dear Tommy if she wants him." "Did you get anything good to eat?" asked Buster. "Oh, yes. Come over here, twinnies, and I will tell you all about it. I wish I'd had time to stuff some of that chicken and frosted cake into my pocket for you all. It was a splendid dinner party, if that old Tom hadn't been invited."
Pond Lily Lake until snow flies ah, but it's a great country down there!" "I'm a-thinking if I do much doctoring and we fetch greedy Buster, little Squealer, and those mischievous twinnies of yours home safe and sound, that it will not be all vacation fun between now and snow-time," said Grand-daddy. "Better tuck the kiddies into the blankets early, Hezekiah.
