"There," said Nora, when Ella had left the couch to go to her sister, "that is what I like. Didn't she look beautiful, Daisy?"
"Her dress looked beautiful " said Daisy.
"Well, of course; and that made her look beautiful. Daisy, I wish I could have a nice part. I would like to be the queen in that fainting picture."
"You are going to be in that picture."
"But, I mean, I would like to be the queen. She will have the best dress, won't she?"
"I suppose she will be the most dressed," said Daisy.
"I don't want to be one of the women I want to be the queen. Hamilton Rush said I would be the best one for it, because she was a Jewess; and I am the only one that has got black eyes and hair."
"But her eyes will not be seen," said Daisy. "She is fainting.
When people faint, they keep their eyes shut."
"Yes, but I am the only one that has got black hair. That will show. Her hair ought to be black."
"Why, will not other hair do just as well?" said Daisy.
