"Twice I have discovered serious flaws in your plans that a common-school education should have enabled you to avoid. And," he continued, "I have been put to expense that I could ill afford in pursuing this swindling quest. I am done with it." I rose and pointed a large pewter spoon at him, fresh from the dish-water. "Goodloe Banks," I said, "I care not one parboiled navy bean for your education.
"Is it?" said Polly, bursting out into a laugh; "never mind, Phronsie, I'll dry you."

Why, only last Sunday, I heard your two mothers flattering themselves about the C girls knowing too much; and I'll swear you've both forgot more than the C girls ever knew. You're as common as dish-water."
