"My goodness, children!" laughed Mary, as they entered the kitchen with
the pepper, "it took you quite a while, and I was in a hurry. Didn't

"Yes, but Wango got in the store," explained Bunny. "When I keep a store
I'm going to keep a monkey, too!"
"Bless and save us, what does the child mean?" murmured Mary, but she
did not stop for an answer, as she was in a hurry to get the supper on
the table.
Some days after this, during which time Bunny Brown and his sister Sue
had had much fun with their playmates keeping store and doing other
things, the two children came down dressed to go to school. But they
were singing and laughing in a way they seldom did unless something
different was happening, or going to happen.
"Bless and save us!" exclaimed Mary, as she saw Bunny and Sue start out
of the house hand in hand.
