"Oh, we haven't that much money!" cried Nan, much surprised.
"That's why I say we must go slow," said Billy. "Now you leave this to me and Bert."
"I think it would be a good idea," declared Nell.
"All right! I will," agreed Nan. "But, oh, I do hope we can get those dishes for Miss Pompret."
"And I hope we can get the reward of a hundred dollars," murmured Bert.
"I only hope they're the right dishes," said Billy.
"Oh, I'm sure they are," declared Nan. "They have the blue lion on and everything. And if they have the letters 'J. W.' on, then we'll know for sure. Let's go in and see."
"We've got to go slow," declared Billy. "Mustn't be too fast. Let Bert and me go ahead."
"I want to come in, too!" declared Freddie. "I want to buy a whistle. Do they have whistles in here?"
"I guess so," answered Bert. "It will be a good thing to go in and ask for, anyhow."
