A Daughter of the Land

CHAPTER IX
6/30

From you I can tell them what really fine fabrics are, and about laces, and linens.

When the subjects arise, as they always do in teaching, I shall describe each ring you wear, each comb and pin, even the handkerchiefs you carry, and the bags you travel with.

To teach means to educate, and it is a big task; but it is almost painfully interesting.

Each girl of my school shall go into life a gentler, daintier woman, more careful of her person and speech because of my having met you.

Isn't that a fine thought ?" "Why, you darling!" cried Mrs.Jardine.
