" " What, buy you a new dress, Susy ?,' ■" Yes, papa, won't you ?" "" Well, I'll see. I'll speak to your mother about." Elongation to an alarming extent rapidly spread over that little countenance, but a thought suddenly struck her, and, with a smile she, looks up into her father's face and: said: ''Well, papa, if you do speak to mamma about it, touch, her easy or she may want the new dress herself.
