Mary Ann looked delighted at this tribute to her attention, and mentally pronounced Andy the handsomest and most polite boy she had ever chanced to meet.
“What is your name?” she inquired, by no means bashful.
“You may call me Henry Miller,” said Andy, using his assumed name for the first time.
“That’s a nice name,” said Mary Ann.
“Do you think so?” asked Andy, smiling.
“I’ve got a nice name myself,” said Peter, complacently.
“What’s your name?” asked the young lady, indifferently.
“I don’t like it,” said Mary Ann, decidedly, looking unfavorably at the red-headed boy.
“You wouldn’t like to be Mrs. Jenks?” asked Peter, grinning.
