The boy and the girl went down the street together and into the park. Some hours later they returned, and the brother was loud in his praise of the goodness of little sister. Luckily for mama, she never knew what really happened in the park. The boy never knew either, and the baby didn't tell. The boy wheeled the baby sedately enough until he met some of his chums playing marbles. He accepted an invitation to join them in the game, shoved the go cart to one side, and boy-like, never thought of the baby again until it was time to go home. Then, as she was asleep in the go cart, he simply started off with her. While his attention was distracted the baby crawled out of her carriage, and this is what she did. She crossed a road, and was nearly run down by a whizzing auto; she robbed some birds of a dirty crust of bread and ate it, although mother had a hatred of germs and watched her diet carefully; she was just falling into a lake when a woman saved her; was nearly mashed flat by a piano that fell from a high window into which it was being hauled, and ended her adventures with a thrilling dynamite explosion of which she was the star. Then weary and frightened, she went back to her go cart, and it was not a bit surprising that she slept calmly. Written by
