“They are beauties!” cried Edith.
“How I should love to have one!” said Marty.
“I wonder how much they are,” said Rosa Stevenson.
“You go in and ask, Rosa,” said Edith.
“Yes, do, do,” urged the others.
Rosa went, and came back with the information that they were twelve cents apiece.
“Well, that isn't so much,” said Edith. “I think I can afford to get one. I'll see when I go home.”
“I know I have enough money to buy one,” said Rosa, “but I never buy anything without asking mamma about it first.”
“She'll let you get it,” said Edith.
“Oh, you girls always have some money saved up, and I never have,” sighed Marty. “And I do want one of those chairs so badly.”
