We shall have something to live upon until you begin to make money for us all." "Yes; that is very simple.

But suppose, again, that the inheritance is nothing but a small sum of money." "Why, then," said Iris, "we will give it all to grandfather, who will pay off his creditor, and we will go on as if nothing had happened." "Child!" said Mr.Emblem, "do you think that I would take your little all ?" "And suppose, again," Arnold went on, "that the inheritance turns out a delusion, and that there is nothing at all ?" "That cannot be supposed," said Mr.Emblem quickly; "that is absurd!" "If it were," said Iris, "we shall only be, to-morrow, just exactly what we are to-day.

I am a teacher by correspondence, with five pupils.

Arnold is looking for art-work, which will pay; and between us, my dear grandfather and Lala Roy, we are going to see that you want nothing." Always Lala Roy with her grandfather, as if their interests were identical, and, indeed, he had lived so long with them that Iris could not separate the two old men.
"We will all live together," Iris continued, "and when our fortune is made we will all live in a palace.

And now, grandfather, that we have relieved our feelings, shall we have the story and the opening of the papers in the safe ?" "Which will you have first ?" Mr.Emblem asked again.
"Oh, the safe," said Arnold.
