e girl was taking some from the cup the train gave a sudden
swing to one side, and, the first thing Sue knew, the water had splashed
up in her face, and down over her dress.

"Oh--oh, Mother!" gasped Sue. "I--I didn't mean to do that."

"No, you couldn't help it," said Mrs. Brown. "It was the train that made
you do it. Water won't hurt your dress."

Mrs. Brown sat down, after wiping the drops off Sue's skirt and face.
She was beginning to read a book when Bunny, who had been looking out of
his window, called:

"Mother, I'm thirsty. I want a drink!"

"Oh, Bunny dear! Why didn't you tell me that when I was getting one for
Sue?"

"'Cause, Mother, I wasn't thirsty then."

Mrs. Brown smiled. Then she once more went down to the end of the car
and got Bunny a drink. By this time the train had stopped at a station,
so the car was not "jiggling" as Sue called it. And Bunny did not spill

For some time after this the two children sat quietly in their seats.

Even Sue thought this might be so. She sat looking out of the window,
watching the trees, houses, fences and telegraph poles, as they seemed
to fly past.

By and by a boy came through the car selling candy.

"Mother, I'm hungry!" said Bunny.

"So am I!" added Sue. "I want some candy!"

Mrs. Brown bought them some chocolates, for the ride was a long one, and
they had eaten an early breakfast. The candy kept Bunny and Sue quiet
for a while, and Mrs. Brown was shutting her eyes for a little sleep,
when she heard some one behind her saying:

"Oh, children, I wouldn't do that!"

Quickly opening her eyes she saw Bunny and Sue crossing to the other
side of the car, to take some empty seats there. A passenger behind Mrs.
Brown, seeing that she was asleep, had spoken to the children.

"Oh, you musn't do that," said Mrs. Brown. "Stay in the seats you had
first."

"We want to see what's on this side," said Bunny. He had already climbed
up into a vacant seat, and was near the window, when, all at once, a
train rushed pa
