"Yes, Virginia Bascom's goin' to read a paper called 'The Christian Mother as a Missionary in her own Household. To be sure, Ginty's no Christian Mother, or any other kind of a mother; but she's as full of enthusiasm as a shad is of bones. She'd bring up any child while you wait, and not charge a cent.
