` Ay , ay , ' said Slightly at once , and disappeared , scratching his head . But he knew Peter must be obeyed , and he returned in a moment , wearing John 's hat and looking solemn . ` Please , sir , ' said Peter , going to him , ` are you a doctor ? ' The difference between him and the other boys at such a time was that they knew it was make-believe , while to him make-believe and true were exactly the same thing . This sometimes troubled them , as when they had to make-believe that they had had their dinners . If they broke down in their make-believe he rapped them on the knuckles . ` Yes , my little man , ' anxiously replied Slightly , who had chapped knuckles . ` Please , sir , ' Peter explained , ' a lady lies very ill . ' She was lying at their feet , but Slightly had the sense not to see her . ` Tut , tut , tut , ' he said , ` where does she lie ? ' ` In yonder glade . ' ' I will put a glass thing in her mouth , ' said Slightly ; and he made-believe to do it , while Peter waited . It was an anxious moment when the glass thing was withdrawn . ` How is she ? ' inquired Peter . ` Tut , tut , tut , ' said Slightly , ` this has cured her . ' ' I am glad , ' Peter cried . ' I will call again in the evening , ' Slightly said ; ` give her beef tea out of a cup with a spout to it ' ; but after he had returned the hat to John he blew big breaths , which was his habit on escaping from a difficulty . In the meantime the wood had been alive with the sound of axes ; almost everything needed for a cosy dwelling already lay at Wendy 's feet . ` If only we knew , ' said one , ` the kind of house she likes best . '
` XXXXX , ' shouted another , ` she is moving in her sleep . '
