[The Harvester by Gene Stratton Porter]@TWC D-Link bookThe Harvester CHAPTER XV 27/65
Friends come and go, but a good housekeeper remains and is a business proposition--one that if conducted rightly for both parties and on a strictly common-sense basis, gives you living comfort.
Now that we have disposed of the guests that go and the one that remains, we will proceed downward and arrange for ourselves." "David, did you ever know any one who treated a housekeeper as you say you would ?" "No.
And I never knew any one who raised medicinal stuff for a living, but I'm making a gilt-edged success of it, and I would of a housekeeper, too." "It doesn't seem----" "That's the bedrock of all the trouble on the earth," interrupted the Harvester.
"We are a nation and a part of a world that spends our time on 'seeming.' Our whole outer crust is 'seeming.' When we get beneath the surface and strike the BEING, then we live as we are privileged by the Almighty.
I don't think I give a tinker how anything SEEMS.
