Quinion manages the business, and he suggests thit it gives employment to some other boys, and that he sees no reason why it shouldn't give employment to you.

"Would you like to play hide and seek?" "No; leth not play at rough gameth," said Cuthbert. With a wild spasm of joy William realised that his enemy lisped.
