with little boy. and they took me
along because my little mother would
not leave me behind, although that
nurse tried to get her to.
"They tucked me In between them
on the seat. and slipped out between
the board on the back of the seat.
OF course, they did not know It, and
drove right on without me.
by and by party Of young ladies
and young gentlemen came along and
picked me up.
Why, this Is DruSilla!" said one of
the young ladies'. What in the world
are you doing here in the road?" abe
asked me.
Il did not say a word, Of course, and
she told the rest of the party that
was the best loved doll in the world
she thought; that my little motAsr
mother would not put mo aside for all
the lovely French dolls that other lit
tie girls played with. and that she al.
ways said was better than all the
other dolls In the world.
"Just thea the pony cart with ny
