10 There are two kinds of girls.
One is the kind that appears best
abroad-the girls that are good
for parties, rides, visits, balls, ETC.,
and chief delight is in such things.
The other is the kind that appears
best at home-the girls that are
cheerful and useful in the dining
room, sick room and all the pre-
cincts of home. They differ wide
ly in character. One is torment
at home, the other a blessing. One
is a moth consuming everything
about her; the other is a sunbeam,
inspiring light and gladness all
around her pathway.naThe right
education will modify both a lit
tie, and thus unite the good quail
ties Of both in one.
