She Wanted to Save Time.

Little Alice had been very sick, and was taken by her mother, with her twin sister, to a seaside hotel for a change of air. Here she gained strength rapidly, and her appetite increased so that she was no sooner through one meal than she was looking longingly forward to the next. One day, hearing that her supper would be ready in a few minutes, she turned to her sister and said: “Let’s ask a bless'ng now, Janie, so as not to have to wait when we get to the table.”— New York Tribune.
