Mrs.Wilmot came and entered two of her children; and she said that Mrs.Armond was going to send her Florence so soon as her quarter expired in the school she is now attending." "How much will you receive from your present number of scholars ?" inquired Henry.
"I made the estimate to-day," returned Edith, "and find that the bills will come to something like a hundred and twenty-five dollars a quarter." "Five hundred dollars a year," said Henry; "and my five hundred added to that will make a thousand.

Can't we live on a thousand dollars, mother ?" "We may, by the closest economy." "Our school will increase," remarked Edith; "and every increase will add to our income.

Oh! it looks so much brighter ahead! and we have so much real comfort in the present! What a scene of trial have we passed through!" "How I ever bore up under it is more than I can now tell," said Mrs.
Darlington, with an involuntary shudder.

"And the toil, and suffering, and danger through which we have come! I cannot be sufficiently thankful that we are safe from the dreadful ordeal, and with so few marks of the fire upon us." A silence followed this, in which two hearts, at least, were humbled, yet thankful, in their self-communion--the hearts of Henry and Miriam.
Through what perilous ways had they come! How near had they been to shipwreck! "Poor Mrs.Marion!" said Edith, breaking the silence, at length.

"How often I think of her! And the thought brings a feeling of condemnation.
Was it right for us to thrust her forth as we did ?" "Can she still be in ?" "Oh no, no!" spoke up Henry, interrupting his mother.
