suggested

the

yellow

hen

.

"

There

is

no

need

to

beware

of

baby

-

cabs

and

wheelbarrows

;

but

automobiles

are

dangerous

things

.

Several

of

my

friends

have

been

run

over

by

them

replied

the

girl

,

"

for

this

is

a

new

,

wild

country

,

without

even

trolley

-

cars

or

tel

phones

The

Over

to

those

trees

,

to

see

if

I

can

find

some

fruit

or

nuts

,

"

answered

Dorothy

.

She

tramped

across

the

sand

,

skirting

the

foot

of

one

of

the

little

rocky

hills

that

stood

near

,

and

soon

reached

the

edge

of

the

forest

.

At

first

she

was

greatly

disappointed

,

because

the

nearer

trees

were

all

punita

,

or

cotton

-

wood

or

eucalyptus

,

and

bore

no

fruit

or

nuts

at

all

.

But

,

bye

and

bye

,

when

she

was

almost

in

despair

,

the

little

girl

came

upon

two

trees

that

promised

to

furnish

her

with

plenty

of

food

.

One

was

quite

full

of

square

paper

boxes

,

which

grew

in

clusters

on

all

the

limbs

,

and

upon

the

biggest

and

ripest

boxes

the

word

"

Lunch

"

could

be

read

,

in

neat

raised

letters

.

This

tree

seemed

to

bear

all

the

year

around

,

for

there

were

lunch

-

box

blossoms

on

some

of

the

branches

,

and

on

others

tiny

little

lunch

-

boxes

that

were

as

yet

quite

green

,

and

evidently

not

fit

to

eat

until

they

had

grown

bigger

.

The

leaves

of

this

tree

were

all

paper

napkins

,

and

it

presented

a

very

pleasing

appearance

to

the

hungry

little

girl

.

But

the

tree

next

to

the

lunch

-

box

tree

was

even

more

wonderful

,

for

it

bore

quantities

of

tin

dinner

-

pails

,

which

were

so

full

and

heavy

that

the

stout

branches

bent

underneath

their

weight

.

Some

were

small

and

dark

-

brown

in

color

;

those

larger

were

of

a

dull

tin

color

;

but

the

really

ripe

ones

were

pails

of

bright

tin

that

shone

and

glistened

beautifully

in

the

rays

of

sunshine

that

touched

them

.

Dorothy

was

delighted

,

and

even

the

yellow

hen

acknowledged

that

she

was

surprised

.
