"There are fortune tellers."
"That won't do—not interest enough. There! here's one. 'Little Red
Riding-hood.' That will be beautiful for you, Daisy."
"But Preston, I mustn't be everything."
"Plenty more things coming. You don't like Red Riding-hood? Then we will give it to Nora or Ella."
"O like it," said Daisy. "I like it much better than Esther—unless you will play Ahasuerus."
"Well I will put you down for both of 'em."
"But who's to be anything else?"
"Lots. Here.—Splendid! 'Marie Antoinette' going from the revolutionary tribunal—that will be capital."
"Who will take that?" said Daisy.
"Let me see. I think—I think, Daisy, it must be Theresa Stanfield. She is a clever girl, and it must be a clever girl to do this."
