Woods, rising upon her feet, "I am a working-woman I came out here to work and improve the country, and you came here to live on your Injun wife. The world belongs to those who work, and not to the idle. It is running water that freshens the earth.
But I don't think you are a common woman, Phebe," he added, lifting up his eager face to hers, as if afraid of hurting her feelings, "and my father does not think so, I know." "Your father has known me all my life, and has always been my best friend," said Phebe, with a pleasant smile. "But I am a working-woman, Felix, and your mother is a lady and a great genius. It is God who has ordered it so."
Her hard common sense as a working-woman suggested to her that Anderson was nursing illusions; and she scornfully though silently hoped that the "old rip" would soon, one way or another, be off his shoulders. But the illusions, for the moment, were Anderson's sustenance.
But I'm establishing a reputation over there as a working-woman, and if I have any influence, or do any little good, it's owing to that fact. Do you think they care anything about Father Damon's gospel?" "I should be sorry to think they did not," Edith said, gravely. "Well, very little they care.
But you had the beginning of the independent working-woman in your days. Most women are independent now. Most of these are married more or less there are a number of methods of contract and that gives them more money, and enables them to enjoy themselves."
Tramp, tramp, tramping along the road, in singles, couples, groups, and gangs, you have the working-man and the working-woman but not clothed like ours.

"Let her tidy up these breakfast things I've used, and there's some cups and plates in the kitchen, for I gave those poor policemen some food 'long 'bout three o'clock this morning. And she can throw out the melted ice cream, it's no good to anybody, and it surely isn't evidence!" I determined to ask the working-woman some questions, but the police forestalled me.

Milly had told far less of her circumstances to the working-woman than Ernestine had told of hers in their mutual confidences. Social pride a sense of caste had prevented Milly from confessing her miserable situation. But now she unfolded the whole story, with a few tears. "If it wasn't for Virgie," she sobbed, "I'd walk into the river to-night I'd do anything to end it. I'm no good."
I am a working-woman myself and cannot afford to do much on my own account, and there's sights of trouble on every side; but, if you'll excuse me, I'm bound to say I've given away many a bit of bread since that wet afternoon, just along o' thinking of you an' how wet an' cold you was, an' how hungry you looked; an' yet you gave away your hot buns as if you was a princess."
