I meant to return it some day to this kind friend--yes, I know he meant to be very kind.

This is what he has written on the outside of the envelope." Miss Egerton read aloud--"When you want me, use me; don't return me, and never abuse me." "There must be money here, my dear," she said.
"Yes, I know there is money," said Primrose, "for he wanted to press fifteen pounds on me when I went to say good-bye; but I was too proud to accept it, so now I think he has thought of this way of helping us.
We could buy our furniture out of some of that money, Miss Egerton." "Quite so, dear," said Miss Egerton, in a very cheerful voice.

"Give me the letter, Primrose, and I will put it carefully away for you; you need not open it just at this moment.

I will order just as little furniture as possible, and have it sent in to-day, and then when the bill comes you shall pay out of this envelope.

I should not be surprised if we did our furnishing for seven pounds; I thought of so many nice, cheap little expedients last night.
