Through the neat little, sweet little house.

The walls reechoed with riot and noise;

And the sun went down, and the stars

Shake hands, Tommy. I'll take it

most as high as Tommy's head, too.
Nobody stopped to play on the way
home that noon. Everybody ran just
as fast as their legs could carry them
that is-everybody but the Thomp-
son twins. They walked very slowly
indeed, weighed down by the respon-
sibility of taking care of all that
money.
Miss Swinton, when she went to the
window at five minutes past 12, won
dering at the unusual silence, opened
her eyes in establishment. Not boy
or girl was in sight except the Thomp-
son twins, and they were slowly and
carefully turning the corner.
That afternoon when school opened
Dottie and Tottie walked up to Miss
Swinton's desk and carefully laid on it
two open boxes. One was nearly full
of pennies, five-cent bits, dimes, quar-
tiers and halves, and one big silver
''cart-wheel." In the other reposed
leathern pouch from whose open
mouth issued perfect stream of
varied coins.
"Yessum," said Dottie, in answer to |
an inquiring glance from her teacher.
They're from us-it's the money for
our frecrackers-"
"And lemonade and ice cream" put |

looked mournfully round on her com

What did you ask her?"
'How much money will you have?"

proving self-conscious smile that
comes from superior virtue, and Tot
