"Why do you call the maid Twinkle?" Dot asked the Queen.
"Because she steps so quickly and so softly, like the twinkling of a star, and because her eyes are so bright and sparkling," answered the Wax Doll.
"Why do you call him Scollops?" enquired Tot, pointing his finger at the boy doll.
"Because his hair is all knitted in scollops, and he has scollops around his wrists and at the bottom of his trousers."
Tot looked, and sure enough the scollops were there.
"You see we always have a reason for the names we bear in this kingdom. It is only in the big outside world that people have names that mean nothing," said the Queen.
"What is your name?" asked the girl.
"Haven't you heard it?" enquired the Queen, with a surprised look.
"No; I have only heard you called the Queen," said Dot; "but, of course, you must have a name of your own."
