I have the money."
"Yes, you might do that," said Mrs. Golden. "It would be fine if you
could. Now let me see what you want, and then see if you can get it from
the shelves."
"I can climb like anything!" said Bunny gleefully.
"Well, don't fall!" cautioned Mrs. Golden. Together, with the help of
their friend, Bunny and Sue picked out from the closed store the things
their mother had written on the list for them to get. Mrs. Golden told
them where certain groceries were kept, and the price.
"Why, you are regular little storekeepers!" declared Mrs. Golden, trying
not to think of her aching head. "You have waited on yourselves as well
as I could have done."
"I wish we could wait on some regular customers!" boldly exclaimed
Bunny.
"Wouldn't it be fun!" laughed Sue.
There came a knock on the side door, and a woman's voice called:
"Are you there, Mrs. Golden? I want a few things. May I come in?"
"Oh, yes, come in, Mrs. Clark," replied the storekeeper, as she
recognized the voice of one of her customers.
