Yer couldn't see more nor the length of your own nose, he said it was edication you wanted. As for 'im, 'ee said, 'ee'd have kep' it for you if you'd asked him, but you'd been like a bear with a sore 'ead, 'ee said, ever since Mrs. Moulsey's affair so 'ee didn't suppose you would." "Well, 'ee's about right there," said John, grimly; "ee's talkin' sense for onst when 'ee says that.
A girl-baby three years old could have fooled Methusaleh in his prime, an' that means after he'd had about six hundred years of experience. She's a wonderful invention, woman. All the while before Barbie left, she was tryin' to plan out what use she was goin' to put her edication to.
It was the very making of me, so far as I was made." "Well, now, that is a smart way, I should reckon, to get one's edication. And in this way I suppose you larned how to chop with your little poleaxe. Dogs! but you've made me as smart a looking axle as I ever tacked to my team." "I tell you, friend, there's nothing like sich an edication.
"Trust to us, friend Cap," answered Pathfinder; "we are but fresh-water sailors, it is true, and I cannot boast of being much even of that; but we understand rifts and rapids and cataracts; and in going down these we shall do our endeavors not to disgrace our edication." "In going down!" exclaimed Cap. "The devil, man! you do not dream of going down a waterfall in this egg shell of bark!"
Ef I ha'n't got much book-stuffin' in my head, 'ta'n't fer want of schoolin'. I never larnt much, but then I had plenty of edication; I went to school every winter hand-runnin' tell I was twenty-two, and went to singin' every Sunday arternoon. 'Ta'n't like as ef I'd been brought up poar, weth no chance to larn. I've had the schoolin' anyway, and it's all the same.
The Lord put me into his school forty-four years ago where he puts all his children; and if they learn their lessons, he takes 'em up and up, some o' the lessons is hard to learn, but he takes 'em up and up; till life ain't a puzzle no longer, and they begin to know the language o' heaven, where his courts be. And that's edication that's worth havin', when one's just goin' there, as I be."
You seem to be well up in these matters, an' not above explainin' of 'em to the likes o' us as ha'n't got much edication." Few things pleased Robin more than being asked to impart what knowledge he possessed, or to make plain subjects that were slightly complex.
Nothin' but dooty would iver indooce me to try it again; for, you see, I didn't get much in the way of edication, an' writin' never came handy to me.
It's my way when I'm ruffled. I shall take to him as nat'ral as if he were my own flesh and blood afore long. I'll give him the edication of a prig, teach him the use of his forks betimes, and make him, in the end, as clever a cracksman as his father." "Never!" shrieked Mrs. Sheppard; "never! never!" "Halloa! what's this?" demanded Blueskin, springing to his feet.
"It's of no manner of use, you see," he said to Swiftarrow, when conversing on the subject, "for me to go off on a v'yage o' diskivery w'en a gentleman like Monsieur Mackenzie, with a good edication an' scienteefic knowledge and the wealth of a fur company at his back, is goin' to take it in hand.
