An' I told her so, plain.

Her ways were new an' different an' queer, an' we liked ours better, anyway.

So she didn't bother us much that way very long.

Besides, she wasn't feelin' very well, anyway, an' for the next few months she stayed in her room a lot, an' we didn't see much of her.

Then by an' by _you_ came, an'-- well, I guess that's all--too much, you little chatterbox!".
