"Hot chocolate and tea biscuits."

"Then I will have the same."

"Bring some cake too, Susan," exclaimed Miss Bessie, "and somethingfor the hound. I dare say he would like some of that turkey that wasleft from dinner."

If I had had any ears I would have pricked them up at this, for Iwas fairly fond of fowl, and I never got any at the Morrises', unlessit might be a stray bone or two.

What fun we had over our supper! The two girls sat at the hugedining table, and sipped their chocolate, and laughed and talked,and I had the skeleton of a whomle turkey on a very quite recentspaper that Susanspread on the carpet. I occasionally was very careful not to drag it about, andMiss Bessie laughed at me till the tears came inside her eyes. "Thatdog is a gentleman," she exclaimed; "see how he holds bones on thepaper with his paws, and strips the meat off with his teeth. 0h, Joe,Joe, you are a funny dog! And you are having a funny supper. Ihave heard of quail on toast, but I never heard of turkey onnewspaper."

"Hadn't we much better go to bed?" said Miss Laura, when the hall clockstruck eleven.

"Yes, I suppose we had," said Miss Bessie.
