So we went down to the kitchen.

"Please let us stay" we begged. We'll

they looked as if they'd be lovely. But Aunt
Jenny went to dress, and left Betty to watch
them, and. would you believe it? she took
one out when it was done, but she forgot all
about the other, and it burnt to regular Gin
der in the oven. What shame it was!
"There does seem to be spell on the
cake today" said mamma. whats a spell,
/ wonderO tits too late to make any more.
I'll send Miy out for some kisses and little
cocoanut-cakes, and they'll make one basket
full and this one cake another"
When it was almost time for the company
to come, we went into the dining-room. and
found mamma and Aunt Jenny there.
Jenny" mamma was saying, Il hadn't
quite finished dressing, and l must run up
again. Will you please cut the cake? Put
ON my big white apron that you'll find in the
drawer of the buffet"
"Go and get it for me, Mily," said Aunt
Jenny.
She might have said please. How would
she like to be ordered about SO? But, of
course, l had to go and get it.
Aunt Jenny stood with the knife in her
hand, and tapped the cake. as if she we're con-
sidering how many pieces it could be cut into.
did not count them then, but afterward
thought she must have cut twelve.
Children" she said, putting it into the
basket, 'you mustn't ask for any of this at
the table-at any rate, not until everybody
else is helped. You can eat the fancy cakes D
Then she hurried away and we were alone
"Isn't that horrid?" said Amy. "As if we
didn't like it as well as the other people!'
"Yes," said l. "And it isn't her cake. if
she did make it. 1t belongs to my father be
cause this is his house, and l guess can have
some. Suppose Betty hands me the basket;
can say, right out loud: i won't take any,
for fear there won't be enough to go round ?''i
'There is enough, I'm sure" said Amy.
"And how can she tell that everybody'n want
some? Perhaps no one will. It's very vain

Amy reached out her fingers to the yery ton
piece and broke off tiny bit. and put It
into her mouth
"Is it goodP / asked.
She nodded, and then l followed her ex-
amlnle. II was delicious.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-08-26

Aunt Jenny helped Amy to undrcss; and
then she turned the light down little and
went down stairs
!. / had my head covered up so Amy would
mt hear me giggle, but pretty soon she began
to giggie, too. In few minutes happened
to look over at the door between the rooms,
and there was Amy, peeping around the cor
ner.
The minute | looked at her we both burst
out laughing. just as | knew we should do,
for we never stay cross very long.
Then | said:
'Im coming in there with you"
And she said: "Well!" and we both ran
and jumped into bed together.
We began to tell ghost stories, and they
were so dreadful | couldn't bear to go back
l stayed and stayed, and Amy went to sleep,
and must have got almost asleep, for the
next thing knew somebody was shaking me,
until | opened my eyes, and there was Aunt
Jenny come up to bed
you weas doiss 'BB BBs4ss" sR'id' she said what are
1Ive only been here little while," said L.
'What have you come to bed so early for,
Aunt Jenny? thought big people, always
sat up till midnight"
.It's nearly twelve o'clock said she.
/ didn't believe we'd been talking all that
time. Her watch must have been wrong.
But she made me go to my bed, and l fell
asleep before she put the light out.
The next day we had a tea-party. Nine
people were coming besides us-my father and
mother and me and Amy and Aunt Jenny.
l was dreadfully afraid somebody'd say
the table would be crowded and must wait.
Don't you think it's horrid mean to make
children wait! / do. But Aunt Jenny said
if | didn't come. there'd be thirteen, and
somebody might not like that. She didn't
care herself, but she knew old Mrs. Gage be-
lieved in signs.
They were boiling tongue in the kitchen,
and baking custard and biscuit and cake.
There were lovely smells coming up the
kitchen stairs, and Amy and l sat in the hall
and played jack-stones, SO we could see all
that was going on.
"Why don't you go out and take a walk"
mamma and Aunt Jenny said, whenever they
had to pass u.s. They were carrying the com
pany-china from the hall-coset into the din
ing-room eff we didn't want you to 60. it
would be hard to keep you in"
They wanted all the fun to themselves, |
suppose, Just as if couldn't go to walk every
dayl But we didn't have a tea-party every
Presently Aunt Jenny said:
"Agnes, would you like me TO make some of
INV chocolate -cakeT "
i'Yes, I'd be glad L you would, Jenny"
replied mamma, "for thia ponge-cake hasn't
turned out well, and don't ike to use it,

Los Angeles herald., 1906-08-26

Then l broke off another bit and Amy did
the same. By this time the piece didn't look
like the others, and we had to finish it.
Then | took another piece from the basket
and broke it in two.
This will only make one apiece" said !:
And it's only fair for us to have ours now, If
we don't eat any at the table"
That's so," said Amy.
You may suppose that that piece didn't
taste very good to us. You'd be mistaken,
though. 1t was elegant But we felt rather
| ashamed.
"Do you think they'll notice." I asked, as
tried to pile the remaining pieces higher.
81 don't know" said Amy, obviously Then
she exclaimed, suddenly: 81 believe all she
wants is to have it look good deal There
really is plenty you know, And ! know
way to make it look more than it is"
Howl asked.
"Id put something underneath the napkin
to make a little sort of hump in the cake
basket. Then put the cake on top Of that,
and it would be a great deal bigger pile"
"To-be-surel" said l. Let's tell them
about it. No; let's do it ourselves and sur
Agreed. We carried the basket to the side
table, and took oXt the cake.
Then the question arose what to put, under
the napkin. We. tried saucer, but that
wouldn't go into the basket We tried tra-
cup, but that made too big a hump. We
tried a salt-cellar, but that was too little
II know what would do said 1; 'but per-
haps it will be wanted. The dmustard-pot.
Do people eat mustard on tongue"
We neither of us could remember.
perhaps they do" said Amy. "And if
anybody wanted it, you'd have to say, It's in
the cake ebasket,' and they'd think it was kind
of queer Besides, the mustard would spill
on the cake, and it's too big, anyway"
At last we found that the lid of the every
day sugar-bowl was just the thing. We put
that in and piled up the cake over it, and.
would you believe it? there looked more than
there had been at first.
Then we ran to the parlor, for the company
had begun to come.
First, there was old Mrs. Gage, with her
cap, with the yellow ribbons in band-box,
and she put it on at the parlor looking-gass.
for she said she never went up stairs when
she could help it. 1t took her breath away.
Her niece. Miss Styner, came with her.
Mamma says:
'Poor thing!"
She has to wash the poodle every Saturday
and read the paper all through every morning,
and that's what makes her voice SO hoarse--
screaming, l mean. for her aunts deaf
Then there was Mr. Masters He's the
principal of our school. He'd never been in
our house before, and ! did wonder what
made him come, but suppose mamma must

tonight at the West Fork mines OF the
Pocahontas Galleries Company, where
the explosion occurred late yesterday.
The bodies of those recovered were
taken from the mines as the result of
the heroic work OF a band of thirty
five men, constituting a rescue party
which worked necessarily through the
hours of the night and day. 1t was not
until 1880 o'clock this evening that the
rescuers reached a point near the Paul
entry. where the explosion occurred.
Toward the middle OF the evening the
hope was expressed that all the bodies
would be recovered by midnight.
The authorities anticipated the fear
full extent OF the casualties today by
ordering carload of coffins and burial
supplies, now on the way
Superintendent William Leckie, who
entered the mine as one of the rescu-
ing party, had q narrow escape from
death. He was overcome by the
fumes and had to be carried out. Ed
ward Jones. the inside mine foreman,
led the first rescue party and when
that party failed to return In a reason

superintendent Leckie followed.
