"Bunny Brown and His Sister Sue Keeping Store"

He laid the hose
down, with the water still running, but he turned the stream so it would
spray on the grass and not on the garden, so it would not wash out any
of the growing things.
Bunny was coming out again, with a large slice of bread and jam, when
from the front street he heard a man's voice crying:
"Here! Look out what you're doing! Be careful with that hose! You're
soaking me!"
"Oh, oh!" cried Bunny Brown. "Sue must have picked up the hose that I
left and squirted water on somebody!"


CHAPTER XIII
HELPING MRS. GOLDEN

Almost dropping his slice of bread and jam, so excited was he, Bunny
Brown ran toward the hose. Before he reached it, for it was around the
corner of the house, he heard the man's voice again calling out:
"Here! Stop that I say! Can't people go along the street without being
wet with water from a hose? Pull your hose farther back!"
"Sue! Sue! Don't do that! Be careful! You're wetting some one," cried
Bunny, as he ran along, not yet seeing the hose. But he could guess what
had happened.
