We would like to Say few words in

three weeks ago. He complains thai,

a cause for that few parents are willing
to acknowledge. a farmers daughter
is usually considered well provided for
il she gets year or two al boarding
school. and is allowed, in return for the
many weary hours of monoionous labor,
good comfortable clothes. The son who
does no more work in year than she
(if rs much) has handsome buggy, 4

he needs for cigars, "Summit fine-cui,

know nothing about. And never word
Of complaint from parents does he hear.
