Chapter 24

_Mother._ Well, little One-Eye, tell us what you have seen. Why doesn't little Two-Eyes eat the food we have for her?

_Little One-Eye._ I don't know, mother. The way was so long and I was so tired; I fell asleep; and when I woke up it was time to come home.

_Mother._ It was a hard walk for you, my dear; but we must find out who is giving little Two-Eyes something to eat. To-morrow you must go, little Three-Eyes.

_Little Three-Eyes._ I'll find out, mother. If anyone dares to give food to little Two-Eyes, I'll tell you all about it.

_Mother._ Yes, my dear, I know you won't go to sleep. I can trust you to find out everything.
