"Perhaps it will all come right at last. Oh! if some kind good fairy would but come to our aid and help us to confound our enemies!" "Yes; but you have been crying, darling! What has happened?"

"Some of them; not all. I know a considerable few who dress so little that they might as well leave it alone." She shakes her head. "Ah!" replied her father; "it must always be as he says"; and they spoke no more about it. "Oh not for ever so long," returns she, with much and heartless unconcern. (His spirits sink to zero.) "Certainly not until Friday," she goes on, carelessly. (As this is Wednesday, his spirits once more rise into the seventh heaven.) "Or Saturday, or Sunday, or perhaps some day next week," she says, unkindly..
