I might ha' been a great man meself" he grinned "if I'd had your eddication, but here I am, a 'low man' as Li Choo said, takin' me place simple as a babe." "Patsy, you save my life," remarked the Young Doctor. "You save my life daily. That's why I'm glad you're getting a good home at last." "At Slow Down Ranch, with her that's to be its queen! Well, isn't that like her to be thinkin' of others?
"In the first place, you are not going to work so hard and in the next place the girls are going to have a better education." "Well, I'm not afraid of work," answered the farmer. "About eddication, if they want it well, it's their money and they can have all the learnin' they want." "Dora is going to a boarding school and Nellie and Grace want to go with her," went on Mrs. Laning.
I suppose the oldest go to school." "Naw. They never saw the inside of a school house." "You don't say so!" and David looked his astonishment. "Surely there must be a school near here." "Oh, yes, there's a school all right, but they've never gone. I don't set any store by eddication. What good is it to any one, I'd like to know?
"I've a notion you have few equals with a hoe." "I was afraid " "Ah, that's always the way of folks wi' real talent. Guess you're an eddication with a hoe." Seth went on with his work until Rosebud spoke again. She was looking away out across the prairie, and her eyes were just a trifle troubled. "Then I'd best get my things changed and bring out a hoe.
"Why did you come out clear to end o' track?" he inquired. "I was ordered by my physician to find a locality in the Far West, high and dry." I gulped at his smile. "I've found it and shall go home to report." "With your tail between your legs?" He clapped me upon the shoulder. "Stiffen your back. We all have to pay for eddication. You're not wolf meat yet, by a long shot.
"I'm just goin' to stick to this place, an' Miss Milly an' her folks, till I get eddication enough to be a lawyer. I find it's mostly lawyers or sojers that gets to be Presidents; lawyers like Mr. Edward. Miss Amy," with a sudden air of apprehension, "you don't think Mr. Edward would try to cut me out, do you?
That's the only proper sort o' dignity a gen'leman's son need ever be partic'ler about, to make people recognise him for what he is; and, with this feeling and eddication, you'll take your proper place in the world, never fear! Now, what do you think about doing, my lad? for the day is getting on, and it's time to see after something." "I'm sure I don't know," I replied.
I mean to put him to some business as he can go into without capital, and I want to give him an eddication as he'll be even wi' the lawyers and folks, and put me up to a notion now an' then." Mrs. Glegg emitted a long sort of guttural sound with closed lips, that smiled in mingled pity and scorn.

"For whilst," said he, "Mahs Jimmy has eddication, you know whilst he has eddication, I has 'scretion. He has eddication and I has 'scretion, an' so we gits along."
Y'see, I ain't had no thousand dollar eddication to make me see things any other ways. Life's a mighty tough proposition an' it can't be run on no schedule, an' each feller's got to travel the way he sees with his own two eyes.
