"Well then, it's all right, she will not notice anything, and you and I will have fine times together. If you won't marry me, at least, we can get engaged you know, that will be fine fun." "Hum " said Käthe, "that would be amusing. We might play at being engaged! that would not matter." "Have you a gold ring for me?" "O we will go and buy one at the flower shop," said he.
"Reading, writing and arithmetic, history and geography and scripture and sewing," said Käthe. "But not how to know a fairy when you see one, O my stars!" said our hero. "What is the good of learning To read and write and sew, To count and do addition If fairies you don't know? How do you know a fairy? O by his glittering eye, And by his light, light footsteps You know when he goes by.
"You are clever, now I can't do that," he said. "You must stay with me always, and live with me in the woods, and be my own little sweetheart." "O no," said Käthe, "I should never be allowed to do that; I must go to school every day, and then I have my exercises to do, and to help mother with the housework; the baby to mind; and O I am always so busy." "I will come and help you," said Green Ears.
Two sacks stood already full, looking from a distance like funny old peasants. Käthe liked to watch the potato fires that are lit to burn the refuse of the plants, smouldering and crackling in the dry autumn air, and the smoke curling up in the clear sky. It was now about five o'clock, and as she had worked all day, she was tired and began to groan and grumble.
After they had watched for some time and the sport had become monotonous, Green Ears took Käthe to the top of the hill, and there they saw the beautiful peaked mountain called the Rossert, bathed in the moonlight. "Well, children, enjoying yourselves on this fine night, I hope?" said a woman of tall and commanding presence. "Will you come home and have supper with me?

Wicksell, Sweden; Dr. Käthe Schirmacher, Germany; Miss Richards. 3. What should be the relation of the suffrage movement to political parties in the unenfranchised countries?
So her mother said: "Hurry up and go home now, child, before it gets dark. Käthe was only too glad to be let off; her tiredness soon vanished as she flew down the steep, grassy slope of the Dachberg, slipping and tumbling every minute. The sun was low, and glowed through the pines and larches, which stand here together, making a wonderful contrast.
"I have often thought about it, but I never could imagine how they do it?" "Didn't they teach you that at school either?" said Green Ears. "My stars! What did they teach you at school?" "Children," said the wood-woman, "children, do you mean it?" "Certainly," said Green Ears. "I think so," said Käthe. "Do you wish to buy rings?" "O yes," decidedly from both children.
He seemed glad enough to see Keith, and Keith was, at least, glad to see him. "It's a bad business, it is, Mr. Kathe," he said sadly. "Yes, it is, John. Where is Miss Huntington?" "Gone, sir," said John, with surprise in his voice that Keith should not know. "Gone where?" "An' that no one knows," said John. "What! What do you mean?" "Just that, sir," said the old fellow.
Käthe found her way across the wet emerald field coloured with patches of exquisite lilac from the autumn crocuses growing there in thousands, hanging out their cheeky little orange tongues. She sang and shouted for joy, and a feeling half sadness, half exhilaration, that comes to us often at the twilight, came over her.
