'Ah! well,' answered Sister Agatha, 'there's no telling what they wouldn't do to us.'
'Still,' said Mary, 'you would be there, too, wouldn't you?'
'Neither of us will be there if some one doesn't go to bed at once!' cried Sister Agatha.
'Oh, isn't it to-night?' asked Mary.
'Not until to-morrow,' was the answer. 'Don't you know that nice things are generally to-morrow?'
Mary turned to look at Evangeline's wings once more before she left the room, and then Sister Agatha put her to bed. To-morrow was one of the most exciting days she had ever passed. For one thing she knew she was going to leave the room for the first time since she had entered it. She had no idea what she should see on the other side of the door, she could only wonder about it just as you may wonder what there is on the other side of the moon.
She sat up much later than usual, too, and she liked that; then she wore the new outdoor jacket over her dress, although Sister Agatha said she was not going out.
'But where are we going?' asked Mary.
'Well,' answered Sister Agatha, 'I think you will say it looks very much like fairy-land.'
'How shall I get there?' asked Mary.
