"You know, Amy, I'm all alone. I haven't any brothers or sisters." "Don't you want to adopt me?" asked Gummy, who overheard her. "I certainly would have to change your name," declared Janice. "No," and he shook his head, his freckled face becoming grave. "Got to stick to the old name just like gum sticks." "Oh, my dear, is that you?" cried Mrs.

Carringford had a good deal of extra work to do, anyway, for she had to go to the lawyer's office and to the court, and interest herself in many things she had known little about before. She was fighting to save her home. Indeed, Amy declared the Carringford family did not know "whether it was on its head or its heels." Only Gummy. Nothing seemed to disturb Gummy.

They could paint their gummy tapestry stuff anywhere. 'I can imagine your asking them what they thought of Corot.

Pas de blague, he really does."

He then took up his bow and arrows, and with deliberate aim shot them, which was easily done, for the serpents were stationary, and could not move beyond a certain spot. They were of enormous length and of a bright color. Having overcome the sentinel serpents, he went on in his magic canoe till he came to a soft gummy portion of the lake, called Pigiu-wagumee or Pitchwater.

I went to Mr. Harriman, the grocer. You know we trade there. And I know that he can use a boy just as well as not. So I told him about Gummy " "Did you tell Harriman his name?" chuckled her father. "I said he was 'G. Carringford," Janice replied, her eyes twinkling. "But you needn't laugh. Mr. Harriman did." "Did what?"

She put out a hand, plucked a twig from a low drooping bough, and peeling the gummy rind, quoted softly: "'Why do you cross me in this exigent? 'I do not cross you; but I will do so."
