    Emily's wedding (婚礼) dress arrived at five o'clock in the   evening, just seventeen hours before the wedding.

        

    "I just try it on, mother!" she cried, as she ran upstairs. Three   minutes later Emily's cries brought her mother up. The dress was much   too big for her. Emily was in tears.

        

    "Take it back to the dressmaker's." Mrs. Bale said. "She must alter   it tonight. Hurry now. Take it off and go."

        

    The dressmaker's shop was closed." CLOSED FOR ONE WEEK HOLIDAY"   said a notice on the door. Fresh tears rose to Emily's eyes. She ran   home again to her mother.

        

    "This is unlucky," Mrs. Bale said. "But what are we going to do?   Shall I ask Mrs. Peter to help? She was a dressmaker once. I'm sure she   could alter it for you."

        

    Mrs. Peter was brought in and began to work. She could see what was   wrong. She had to take in a lot of material at the front, and that was   a big job. In fact, she almost made it again. At about ten o'clock the   work was finished, and Emily tried her dress on. It fitted her   beautifully.

        

    The three women were having a cup of tea when the door bell rang.   Mrs. Bale answered it and looked into the worried eyes of a young woman.   The woman was carrying a large box.

  

    "Does Miss Emily Bale live here?" she asked.

  

    "Yes, she is my daughter."     "Oh, I am glad I've found you. There's been a mistake. Your   daughter has my wedding dress, and I've got hers. And I'm getting   married tomorrow!" She held out the box to Mrs. Bale.
