I 've got ten cents in my pocket, and I '11 give it to you if you '11 keep the kid . To-night. " " Oh, you 've got ten cents, have you ? Well, all right, she can sleep on a bit of a mat on my floor. And where might you be goin' ? ' " Well, " said he, "I 've got to sell some extrys late to-night, and I '11 scare up a box to turn in somewheres. Say, " he added, " she 's awful hungry. If you '11 give her a bit of grub, I '11 pay you for it to-morrow when I come round, and give you a paper. " " All... right, Roy, I '11 do what I kin. " So Janet was settled for the night. It is true she had to sleep on the floor and put up with some scraps to eat. But things go by comparison in this i8 world, and to poor, cold, starving Janet it seemed like living in a palace. Tired and worn out, she slept soundly, forgetting all her sorrows. At last the sun rose in the glory of a new day, making the icicles sparkle in its light, and decking vines, bushes, and trees with a covering of dia- monds. Dame Nature in all her glory of sparkling jewels smiled at the ladies of the world, wearing their paltry gems, as they drove to the slums to leave some little dolls, and wooden horses, and tin watches that would n't go, for starving, ragged, weary children.
