I have got some internal mischief, something that obstructs the passages, and it has got to be removed. There's a risk, of course they never can tell exactly what they will find, but they don't think it has gone too far to be remedied. I don't pretend to like it in fact it's decidedly inconvenient.
And Polly also had a surprise, though not so pleasant a one, for the youth whom she had tried to slay, like David did Goliath, was one of their Boy Scout guests and Polly wondered if it were her duty to inquire in regard to his wounded feelings or to pretend that to-day's more formal meeting was in reality their first?

Men don't like innocence because it's holy, but because it whets their appetites, my sister says, and if they're deceived it serves them right.
