“I am Prince Jingle. May I have the pleasure of dancing with the most beautiful guest in my castle?”
Dorothy took his arm with one of her most winning smiles, and the next minute she was dancing around the room with the Prince.
“It’s lovely,” thought Dorothy. “If only Ray could see me now I don’t think he would run off and leave me.”
“I don’t think he would either,” said the beautiful Prince.
“O,” said Dorothy surprised, “I was only thinking—I didn’t speak, you know.”
“I know you didn’t speak in words,” answered the Prince, “but your face spoke.”
“I didn’t know I could speak with my face,” cried Dorothy, smiling to herself, and she thought, “I don’t believe I can, either.”
“O, yes, you can,” said the Prince, with a merry laugh, and Dorothy blushed to think that he knew just what she thought.
“I wonder how he can tell what is in my mind,” thought Dorothy, but she said nothing.
“It’s the easiest thing in the world to tell what is in a little girl’s mind,” said the Prince, “you can see it in her face, I tell you.”
