The baby said nothing. but I've no
doubt he thought: "And rattles and

And in short time the Pie family
were fast asleep with the exception of
| Ginevra Alveretta.
She waited until She heard her grand
father and grandmother suorng, and
her iather and mother snoring, and the
baby snuiflin r, which was the nearest il
could come TO u snore, and then she
got up quietly and dressed herself
again, and, wrapping her mother S
brown woolen shawl about her head and
shoulders. stole carefully up the steep
ladder that led to the scnttle, opened
the scuttle-this was hard work for
such a.little body, but making a great
eXertion she did it; and oh, how her
! heart beat as it slipped from her hands
and fell with q bang! but no one woke.
and she slipped ont on the roof and
| stumbled through the snow until she
came 10 the house where five wealthy
families lived on five handsome flats.
1t had stopped showing, and the stars
were brightly twinkling in the sky, and
the sound of jingling leigh-bells and
merry laughing fioated up to the small
girl from he streets below.
"r m gon' to sit down side of dis yer
chimbley," she said, .'rause l knows
