That Made Noise.
Bertha was very fond Of play; in fact
she was little inclined to be romp,
and the more noise she made the better
it suited her.
Bertha's mamma did not allow her to
play with some Of the boys in the neigh
borhood because they we're rude, too;
but there was one gentle little boy who
lived near, and he and Bertha had fine
times together.
Once Bertha and her mamma were
spending the day at a house where .
Bishop was visiting. The Bishop
was small. boyish-looking man,
and he was extremely fond OF
children, so he and Bertha were
friends directly. And what a merry
time these two had! Bertha seemed to
have found playfellow after her own
heart, ard. the, Bishop sppeard to enjoy
their frolics as much as she did.
When the time came for Bertha and
her mamma to leave, the little girl
walked up to the Bishop and said:
II wish you would come and play
with me some afternoon. Mamma let's
me play with nice boys!"
Then she added to her mamma, in q
coaxing tone:
Hes real nice, mamma, if he does
make noise!"
And Bertha wondered why every
body laughed. Youths Companion.
