She was, no doubt, good and honest and brave, very well educated and accomplished, but by no means a lady in her sense of the word. Mrs. Le Moyne's feeling toward the Northern school-teacher was very like that which the English gentry express when they use the word "person." There is no discredit in the term.
"Who is this at the 'phone?" "That doesn't matter. Le Moyne's my name. Get the message to Dr. Ed Wilson at once. We are starting to the city." "Tell me again. I mustn't make a mess of this."

"And buttons?" "Use safety-pins. When they're closed one can button over them as well as " "I think," said Sidney, "that it is quite time some one took a little care of you. If you will give Katie, our maid, twenty-five cents a week, she'll do your washing and not tear your things to ribbons. And I'll mend them." Sheer stupefaction was K. Le Moyne's. After a moment:
