I thought perhaps I could do it in Clifford's place, and I went out to Mr. Reid's and saw Mr. Reefer. He was very kind and " "Mr. who?" fairly shouted Mr. Harmer. "Mr. Reefer Mr. Andrew Reefer. He told me to tell you that this article contained all he knew or thought about the railroad bill and " But Mr. Harmer was no longer listening.
After this preface, Harmer proceeded to tell his household what he had himself resolved upon.

There are things in the upbringing of children, my good friend, of far more value than those which gold will purchase." The Master Builder gave vent to a sound almost like a groan.
Mary Harmer had a large and productive garden and a large stock of poultry, so that she was able both to sell and to give largely; and the boys thought that working in the garden and looking after the fowls was the best sort of fun possible.

I firmly believe that I'd make a good newspaper woman, if such a thing had ever been heard of in Aylmer." "That you would. You've twice as much knack in that line as I have.
