"Oh, dear!" sighed Bunny Brown. "What are you going to do, Mother?"
"I don't know just what daddy is going to do," she answered. "He said he would talk it over when he came home to lunch. But don't worry. Run out and play. Here are your cookies."
Bunny wanted to help his mother, but he soon forgot all about the ring, the pocketbook, and the five dollars in the jolly times he and Sue and their playmates had in the yard.
Soon after the twelve o'clock whistles blew, Bunny saw his father coming along the street on his way home to lunch.
"Oh, Daddy! did you find mother's ring?" called the little boy, as he ran to meet his father.
"No, not yet," was the answer. "But I have some good news for all of you."
"Oh, maybe he's found Splash or the other dog!" cried Sue, as she, also, ran to meet her father.
