"I will let you have it for sixpence seeing that it is you," the girl said.
She was very pleasant, with kind, grey eyes. "Sixpence is very cheap for two children and their entire wardrobe, not to mention play-things," she added.
"Yes, it is cheap," said Molly.
Julia, meanwhile, had discovered some paper doll furniture. One card was full of kitchen things, and another was devoted to parlour furniture, while a third displayed a bedroom set.
"How perfectly beautiful!" Molly said, as she looked at the little brown dressing-table with white-and-red cover and the red pin-cushion full of pins.
"What a dear little rug!" said Julia, pointing to a charming brown skin rug.
"And look at the towels and the little towel-rack," said Molly.
"And the bed and washstand and the pretty blue screen," added Julia.
"See the brown chairs and the dear little brown clock. What fun it would be to cut them out, Julia!"
"Look at the parlour set," said Julia. "See the piano, and the red sofa and chairs, and the tall piano-lamp with its red shade."
