All the Boys. Three cheers for the American eagle!
All together. Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah!
(Curtain falls. Or, if there be no curtain, a boy rushes in to tell them the organ-man is coming, and they all rush out.)
SHOPPING.—A DIALOGUE FOR THE VERY LITTLE ONES.
CHARACTERS.
| Clerk. | Old Lady. | Mrs. Highfly. |
| Annie. | Celia. | Mr. Jones. |
Scene.—A shop. Tables are placed at one end of the stage to represent counters. Upon these are displayed toys, confectionery, boxes, or any thing which will indicate a shop. Advertisements of patent medicines and of other things might be hung up. White pebbles may pass for sugar-plums. Sticks whittled out and colored will do for sticks of candy. A little boy of seven or eight may be dressed up to represent a smart clerk or storekeeper (with a pen behind his ear). The other actors should be younger. Celia and Annie, two very little girls, enter at one end of the stage.
Celia. O Annie! did your mother give you a cent?
Annie. Yes. See! (Holds it out.)
