"I will buy it then. I will pay you now."
Looking in her purse she drew forth an eight dollar bill, handed it to Henny, and said:—
"Mrs. Penny, here is a bill for your apron. When you finish it please send it to my home at Chicken Place. I hope it is right. Is it?"
"Why, my dear lady, it is too right. I only asked five dollars for the apron. You have given me eight."
"Five dollars is not enough for such exquisite work. So please accept eight."
"Why, thank you very much, my dear lady," said Henny.
"Fluffie, dear, you look badly. What is the matter?" asked Lady Gray about an hour later.
"I feel rather badly, too, Lady Gray. I think we have been having too much fuss down here. I will try to stay in my nest more."
"Fluffie, I want to ask you and Henny and Speck up to the Castle if you will come," said Lady Gray.
