she took them to the dining room and there they found a table which had
everything nice to eat upon it. And so the children ate and ate and ate,
for the magic table knew just what the person wished for who sat at
it. So you may be sure there were plenty of cookies and ice cream and
candies and golden doughnuts and everything.

So the two little orphan children lived all the time with Sally

and playthings,--merry-go-rounds, sliding boards, sand piles, hundreds

furniture.

There was a roller coaster which knew just when to stop and start so

cookies and candy and ice cream whenever they wished. You may be sure it
was a very happy place to live and the children made Sally Migrundy very
happy. At first the creatures who lived in the whispering forest were
surprised to hear the happy laughter and to see so many children playing
