2t8 MISS BADSWORTH, M.F.H. 



" I'm glad all the work has not gone for nothing," the 

 girl replied. 



" I'm not so sure as I was about the result of man's work 

 in woman's hands," Miss Badsworth remarked. *' You are 

 very wonderful, Lavvy." 



** Wait a bit, auntie ; one cannot always be in luck's way," 

 Lavvy replied. 



" I think it depends on who the woman is," Jack observed 

 with conviction in his voice. 



" Perhaps having had to be a son as well as a daughter 

 makes a difference," Lavvy laughed. And then they had to 

 pass through a bridle-gate in single file.
