How much I 4 that dime, too! Grandpa gave it to me a whole month ago, and I had kept it ever since in my red box upstairs, but those sugar apples looked so attractive, and were so 5 — only a dime a piece — that I wanted to have one.
I could imagine the little girl stood there in front of the 6 in her old dirty dress, looking at the 7 that were put all in a row in the window.

I could not run away from that little girl’s sad, 13 look — so I dropped the dime right into her hand. How 14 the girl was! I am so glad I gave her the dime, 15 I had to go without the apple lying there in the window.
