Betty's Birthday Bags,

Betty Ellis had had a birthday party
every year she had lived. until the
year Of her seventh birthday. At that
time her mamma was very sick. 50 all
thought OF a party had to be given up.
Betty was dreadfully disappointed, but
bravely tried to make the best OF it. I,
Now Betty had a dear, dear auntie,
who lived at their house, and was al
ways thinking and doing the most de-
lightful things. So when she saw how
bad Betty felt she put on her best
thiRking-cap and soon had made Zip a
clever plan for q birthday surprise
without any party. -. x&S,
For several days before the birthday
Betty noticed that auntie looked very
funny and mysterious, and she just
knew something nice was going to
happen. s>'% - %s.,g r@%%5 ~,
When she opened her eyes on the
morning of her birthday she saw,
leaning up against the side of her bed,
2 large bag. It looked like the bags
that ragmen use to gather rags in, and
seemed to be full Of something very
odd in shape. X - s5'*.< .$=@ ! III
Betty jumped out OF bed to look at
t. and there. tied to the drawstring,
was q card with her name ON it. OF
course she knew it was q birthday
present. But what funny way to
give one!" she thought, as she pulled
It open. Inside was just what she had
longed fora new doll-earriage for her
Christmas doll. IS s.. ss..>:s. 4 IA.
Al breakfast time she found under
her plate q tiny bag made Of pink silk
Inside, wrapped ii cotton, was a ring
with the tiniest speck Of a diamond il
It. How she danced about and Rugged
papa and auntie! .ssz E3 sss !.
{ When she got ready to-: start for.
school she found. in place Of her old
Dook-satchel, a new school bag, with
a story-book in it. tt was hard to-
nave to leaye that at home and put
.,-l school books Id its place. Jane,
the cook, gave her a calico bag to
keep buttons in. She found this at.
noon, UP in her room: also pretty
laundry bag from auntie, With sir
new handkerchiefs in It, And when
papa came home at ni>Iat he brought
instead st a., Of 2 box s. candy, big bag
full OF candies and nuts. :, "A
But the nicest birthday bag Of all,
so betty thought, was the one Tom
gave her. Tom was the gardeners
IN, and a very good friend Of hers.
He had two of the dearest little pup
pies that ever were seen, and Betty
had been teasing for one ever. since
they were born &.es III. n /. a.
How surprised she was when, on her
birthday, Tom came in withza horses
feed-bag in his hand. carrying it very:
carefully, and begged her to accept it.
It seemed q, queer present, but she
thanked him and peeped in, and there
was the prettiest puppy, the one with
the white nose. ID. : ..S .s55 81
When Betty went to bed that night,
with the ring on her finger, the doll
carriage at the foot of the bed and
the puppy in her arms, she told auntie,
in their bedtime talk, that she thought
birthday bags were just exactly as nice
as Christmas stockings. zzs2 #.<
