"I used to pay a penny a week for the

outlet _London Journal_," said Debby early in their
acquaintanceship, "till one day I discovered I had a dreadful bad
memory."
"And what was the good of that?" said Esther.
"Why, it
was worth shillings and shillings to me. You see I used to save up all the back
numbers of the _London Journal_ because of the answers to correspondents,
telling you how to do your hair and trim your nails and give yourself a nice
complexion. I

canvas used to bother my head about that sort of thing in those
days, dear; and one day I happened to get reading a story in a back number only
about a year old and I found I was just as interested as if I had never read it
before and I hadn't the slightest remembrance of it. After that I left off

bags numbers. I get through them once every two years." Debby
interrupted herself with a fit of coughing, for lengthy monologue is inadvisable
for persons who bend over needle-work in dark back rooms. Recovering herself,

"Ah, you will grow up a clever woman!" said Debby,
patting her hair.

and their frocks. They would rather play gobs or shuttlecock or hopscotch than
read about the 'Forty Thieves.' They don't mind being kept a whole year in one
class
chanel bags outlet but I--oh, I
feel so mad at getting on so slow. I could easily learn the standard work in
three months. I want to know everything--so that I can grow up to be a teacher
at our school."
"And does your teacher know everything?"
"Oh
yes! She knows the meaning of every word and all about foreign
countries."
"And would you like to be a teacher?"
