Henny unfolded, as she spoke, a beautiful apron. It was embroidered in forget-me-nots, which were sprinkled over it. Fluffie laughed and told Speckle afterwards that Lady Featherly nearly had a fit when she saw it. For she said:—
"O, Mrs. Penny, how beautiful. Thought you did not embroider." Then turning to Lady Gray, "Look here, Cousin Gray, see how lovely this is."
A GROUP IN THE YARD.
Soon every one was admiring Henny's work.
"May I ask who you are making it for, Mrs. Penny?"
"For sale."
"How much do you ask?"
"Five dollars!"
