one in
the morning
My doll he 's dead . '' `` Dear me ! '' said Van Bibber . He made a mental note to get a live one in the morning , and then he said : `` That 's very sad . But dead dolls do come to life . '' The little girl looked up at him , and surveyed him intently and critically , and then smiled , with the dimples showing , as much as to say that she understood him and approved of him entirely . Van Bibber answered this sign language by taking Madeline 's hand in his and asking her how she liked being a great actress , and how soon she would begin to storm because THAT photographer had n't sent the proofs .
