"Yes, indeed, if you like. I'll send her in." Soon a dainty little morsel of fragrant humanity appeared, accompanied by her nurse. The tot was a trifle shy, but Patty's merry smile soon put her at her ease. "Tell the lady your name, dear," said Marie. "Pitty Yady!" said the baby, caressing Patty's cheek.

"It's just the name for her," said Patty, catching up the midget in her arms and cuddling her. "Pitty Yady," repeated the baby, gazing at Patty. "She's struck with your beauty, Patty, like everybody else," said Marie, laughing.
