"I've had nothing but trouble since you went away! I've got into more scrapes than ever in my life before! I've spoilt your black alpaca dress, and torn your white shawl, and-and-I can't tell half the mischief we've done."

"Well, never mind now," said Mrs. Rievor; Now come and see

"you can tell me by and by. what I have brought you."

I shall not tell you of Nimpo's presents, and the book of poems; for, glad as she was to get them, they were nothing when compared with the best gift of all-her home and her mother.
