He was always “down to Harold's.” One day mam ™a said to him, “Why don't you ask Harold's mamma if he can't come here some day?" “Oh,” said Peter, carelessly, “he ain’t got no mamma; just a houses) keeper and a maid and a papa. 1 guess he could come if I ask him, but there ain't nothing to play with up here, so I don't never ask him. One rainy day Peter was in the big Bursery, He was making the twins very happy by playing with them. He | refused, however, to play “papa” to! the big family of dolls, but had found | an old rag doll of his own and had set up housekeeping for himself in the corner. He was. sitting in his| little old rocker with “John” in his lap, giving him a dose of medicine. Patty and Pressy stood watching him. Patty held the bottle of medi- cine and Prissy had a tiny glass of water to give him after he had tak-| ,en the TOMORROW'S STORY medicine. Baby Pau! sat in his high chair, and mamma was in her low chair by the window, mend- ing stockings, Just then Jane opened the door and said A boy to see you, Peter.” And there stood Harold. “John dropped from Peter's arms and Pe ter’s cheeks grew as red as his hair. What would Harold think of him? But Harold hardly looked “Oh, Peter,” he was running to: ward Paul's high chair, “you didn't tell me you had a baby. Isn't he cute? What's his name? I had a little sister once before mamma died." Then he shook hands with Mrs. Palmer, gave Patty and Prissy a Peppermint, and before Peter could get his breath, he and Patty were arranging a new house in the corner by the fireplace. Poor Prissy looked rather forlorn, so Peter took pity on her, and soon they were all playing happily. When Harold had gone, leaned up against his shoulder. “Old Hal's got kinda tough luck, ain't he?" “But [ thought you said he had everything.” Peter squeezed his mother’s hand. “Everything but a mamma.” —HE CARPENTER MOORE.
