Something of a Compromise.

Mina was greatly attached to a neighbor a few blocks away from home, and agreed that she was his little girl, whenever he questioned her about it. One time he said: “Well, if you are really my girl, come home with me to live. Go on and get your hat” Mina hesitated a moment, gazed around the familiar room, and then replied : “I’ll be your little girl,, but I’ll stay here with mamma and papa.”
