" The snow-norm?" .he called. ” Hive you remembered it?” Y«, I've got it,” said Anna. ** Rut Sharley, listen I I'm coming to live next door to youl” " Next door Г cried Sharlcy. ” D’you mean for aluip?

Jbji what we needed 1” said Sharley, snatching Anna's arm. *' My dear Anna, 1 must aay we art lucky 1 Now we don’t only need to do things together on Saturdays—wc can do them every day. How soon arc you coming?” ” Whenever the painting and papering’s done.” ” How simply marvellous I” said Sharley. Anna thought to too.

I've done some pictures on the scullery wall for Jcinnie to look at while she’s washing the dishes. I got the idea from the Beans' atable.” Late in the afternoon the vins rattled off empty down the terrace, leaving behind them straws that blew about in the wind; and Anna's mother’s cook got the fire on in the kitchen. " I’ve got to go in now,” said Anna, blowing on her cold hands. " I expect you'd better not oak me to tea the 6r»t night,” said Sharlcy. 41 No, Mother aaid I wasn't to,” said Anna. " Ail right.

This, of course, was true, and Anna sighed and hurried. Inside the pram crouched the speckled hen, much annoyed. It was dark in there, and crowded.

Just escaping his hoofs, she leapt into the air with a screech of triumph and alighted on the cop of a garden wall by the ride of the roid. The dock stopped as suddenly as it hid begun, and the tinker woman, getting the pram on to its wheels again, bundled everything back into it and made off, running, into the fir wood. The piebald pony came to a standstill. To see him standing there in the rain, so meek and so thoughtful, you might have imagined thit he was repeating a pony hymn to himself; you would certainly never have guested that he bad a decorated stall and a red and gold saddlecloth, or thit he had won three thousand medals. ” Here she is, Mr. Bean I” cried Sharley. ” Your hen 1” The pony threw back hi* heid^fif this were i\most amusing speech, an^K^hed loudly; im the ben, vjkh a startb^bCluckl” sprang M\iauarp mSSiq jy *Jtj t uaita peq \ qsus j -тт]0»тр Jno inoqx ij«d t „ тииу pres ,/aou jnoqe LiSunq jaB iotp wdra ) и машо эф jmf si snp oa ji par 'Sotuoao spirmoj ino эшео Xaq> loodxa | -ррм Ъио оээ» ja.vau эл4| 'aiou^ noi '3vjtit[d pur poo a* эф ui jnoqt Зшииги asnf—xoj о) эао| ijdtuu pjnoja ] ‘aunts эф \[y *Jэц ia8 l.opyp aoj )гф pc|3 mf| *sn oj dpq асэаЗ t |jua qaiqa* ‘ieja Эф MOiq o> suiaas эц§ M •3uiq9nr| 1э|пя§ P!** ,aixuxiV ‘u0 эшо^ M •oqsnq uiqM риг *ээл ag iq аэфо эф ао рае 4э8рэц ipaaq е риг qaJfp т эр« эао ао parapjoq sta qaiqaa p«oj e ujaop jpo paqaiTUi aqs 4Atai pyiajerio « m uri3e qvea эф uo qatq iooj J3q 3upx;d *pue ^[рэррэр ij3.\ pres 3qs ,jrB/D .. -‘«nuiui « joj J3q jnoqe 1ц1фч5пс>Ф P**!00! d4S >!

Meinwhile, Shirley’s mother sent a very polite letter to Anna’s mother saying how sorry she WO about Anna's slipper»; and in reply Anna’s mother sent a very polite letter saying that of course this fort of thing was a pity but that she supposed it could not now be helped. But Jcannie told Shirley where the potato-man lived. She knew, because her cousin who worked on the boats had once told her that Tom Bean lived in a cottage not fir from the sea, near a wood and beyond the gas-works. He had a garden with flower» in it, the cousin said, and his children were as impudent as wild cats. ” Don't forget, Anna,” Slid Sharley in class one day near the end of the week, ” that on not muci ijiturally wished « Very unwillioj got in; and they hive continued bores; but com “ Cll./.w »• .1 onaricy, ac cushions with a I've ever gone to ".
