Ma Bnld bo and bo did Mrs. Stuyvoaant Smyth, and of coutbo they ought to hnvo known If anybody ought. And, bOBldOB, IP John hadn't left the carriage-house door unlocked Dotty and I would never once have thought of go ing In nnd If he had put his old shears away whero thoy belonged, something oIbo might not have happened. But, as It was. that something did happen and Mrs. Stuyvesant-Smyth went away In a high old temper and ma got mad as a hornet and discharged John on the spot. But Betty was ccarod to death and If It hadn't been for me Bho would lmvo up and told the whole business and spoiled all the fun it was fun to boo. Mrs. Stuyvesnnt-Smyth's nose get redder and redder as she got madder and madder and to see ma taking the hond off of everybody who came around. That's the reaBon Betty and me sneaked In the back way and hid behind the parlor curtains and stayed there for hours and hours. We never did like that Stuyvesant Smyth woman, 'cause she was always talking how good her little boy was and how "dreadfully noisy" Betty and I were. That made us tired; and then, she always brought an ugly little pup all covered over with hair about a foot long, and made Betty and me walk up and down the sidewalk with It, holding It by a chain; or made us go around on tip-toes and talk In whispers If TreB Petite was aBleop. "Thes Pe tite" that's what she called It a mlehtv outlandish sort of name, I think. Well, that day when John "left the carriage-house door unlocked, Betty Betty and me thought we'd just go In a little bit and look around; and when wo got Inside. there was ma's brougham standing there, wide open and being aired. Betty and me got In. It was lots of fun, at first, protending we were on Fifth avenue, or having a runaway and smashing into people. But we got tired of that and begun to hunt around. There was a nice big holp underneath tho back seat and we were just looking Into It and thinking what a lark It would be to crawl In there, when, all of a sudden, we heard someone coming and In we went be fore you could think. Botty was afraid but 1 told her to be quiet and I would protect her If need be. It was John coming to get the brougham for ma, but we Just stayed In tho hole as quiet as mice, although Betty wanted to get out more than once. John drove around to the front door and who should we hear, In a little bit, but Mrs. Stuyvesant-Smyth talking to ma. Then they got into the carriage. "Shucks," I whispered to Betty. "That woman again." "Let's get out." she whispered back, while I felt her hands moving about, trying to find a way. "Not much I'm not going to misb the fun." So we stayed. Protty soon I heard Tres Petite snif fing around outside. "That little cur, do you hear her?" I asked Betty. "Yes, nasty little thing," she an swered. Then I heard net: give a gasp. "Hush," I murmured. "What's the matter? What you got?" "O I don't know yes It's shears! My, how It scared me they were so cold." Betty always was a fraid-cat. "Shears?" I whispered. Sure enough. I could foel them. Just then the carriage stopped and I heard ma say: "John, you keep Tres Potlte here In the carriage and see that Bhe doesn't get out. "We will be back soon." And then they went away. Well, of c'oursovJnever Intended do ing it at all, and Betty kind of hesi tated, but I peeked and John wasn't looking, so I reached out and grabbed hold of that hair. - "I don't care." J said to Betty. "We'll have our revenge. You hold the little beast." We stuck all the hair In a corner under the carriage-seat and when ma and Mrs. Stuyvesant-Smyth. came back I expect Tres Petite did look rather queer. And then that Smyth woman went off, saying she'd never show her face inside our house again, and ma jwas just boiling mad. I don't see why; I'm sure I hope Bhe doesn't, then Betty and mo won't have to look after her old dog and walk on tip-toes any more. The only thing I'm sorry about Is that John had to get out, but then, you see. It was all his' fault.
