"Every Saturday you get a box of that from the Nurse Lady," he boasted.
"Pretty soon you'll be so fat I can't carry you and so well you can have

started to say, "go to the parks," but if other ladies were like the first
one he had talked with, and if, as she said, the law would not let him
keep Peaches, he had better not try to take her where people would see
her.
"Can what?" asked Peaches.
"Have the most fun!" explained Mickey. "We can sit in the window to see
the sky and birds; you can have the shears and cut pictures from the
papers I'll bring you, while I'll read all my story books to you. I got
three that She gave me for Christmas presents, so I could learn to read
them----"
"Mickey could I ever learn to read them?"
"Sure!" cried Mickey. "Surest thing you know! You are awful smart, Lily.
You can learn in no time, and then you can read while I'm gone, so it
won't seem long. I'll teach you. Mother taught me. I can read the papers I
sell.
