DOTTY DIMPLE'S FLYAWAY.
CHAPTER I.
BEGINNING TO REMEMBER.
Katie Clifford was a very bright child. She almost knew enough to keep
out of fire and water, but not quite. She looked like other little
girls, only so wise,--O, so very wise!--that you couldn't tell her any
news about the earth, or the sun, moon, and stars, for she knew all
about it "byfore."
Her hair was soft and flying like corn-silk, and when the wind took it
you would think it meant to blow it off like a dandelion top. She was
so light and breezy, and so little for her age, that her father said
"they must put a cent in her pocket to keep her from flying away;" so,
after that, the family began to call her _Flyaway_. She thought it was
her name, and that when people said "Katie," it was a gentle way they
had of scolding.
Everybody petted her. Her brother Horace put his heart right under her
feet, and she danced over it.
