Jasper County Democrat, Volume 11, Number 44, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 November 1908 — She Liked Variety. [ARTICLE]
She Liked Variety.
She is a very nice little girl, and yet she has an imagination bo vivid that people can’t help wondering once In awhile what is going to become of it. The little girl can and does tell the most marvelous tales, and when she is reproved she. is entirely complacent and cannot see that her effective inventions are anything more than jokes. One of these she told to an interested neighbor at whose house she called frequently. “How Is your mamma, dear?” asked the neighbor one morning when the little girl made her appearance. “She is very sick,” answered the little girl earnestly. “Nelly (her sister) and I were up with her all night. We called the doctor.” But when the kind neighbor went in haste to see her sick friend she found her In every respect as well as ever. “Why did you tell kind Mrs. Blank such a story about me?” asked mamma seriously of her little girl at the first opportunity. “Well, mamma.” said the little girl, with a toss of her curls. “Mrs. Blank asks me every single morplng how you are, and I get tired of telling her that you are very well.”—New York Times
