r Tom. I want him to know figures, and write like print, and see into things quick, and know what folks mean, and how to wrap things up in words as aren’t actionable. It’s an uncommon fine thing, that is,” concluded Mr. Tulliver, shaking Washington Nationals Tröjor his head, “when you can let a man know what you think of him without paying for it.”
“Oh, my dear Tulliver,” said Mr. Riley, “you’re quite under a mistake about the clergy; all the best schoolmasters are of the clergy. The schoolmasters who are not clergymen are a very low set of men generally.”
“Ay, that Jacobs is, at the ‘cademy,” interposed Mr. Tulliver.
“To be sure — men who have failed in other trades, most likely. Now, a clergyman is a gentleman by profession and education; and besides that, he has the knowledge that will ground a boy, and prepare him for entering on any career with credit. There may be some clergymen who are mere bookmen; but you may depend upon it, Stelling is not one of them — a man that’s wide awake, let me tell you. drop him a hint, and that’s enough. You talk of figures, now; you have only to say to Stelling, ‘I want my son to be a thorough arithmetician,’ and you may leave the rest to him.”
Mr. Boston Bruins Barn Riley paused a moment, while Mr. Tulliver, some-what reassured as to Aston Villa Børn Fodboldtrøjer clerical tutorship, was inwardly rehearsing to an imaginary Mr. Stelling Cristian Ansaldi Jersey the statement, “I want my son to know ‘rethmetic.”
“You see, my dear Tulliver,” Mr. Riley continued, “when you get a thoroughly educated man, like Stelling, Franciesco Totti Pelipaidat he’s at no loss to take up any branch of instruction. When a workman knows the use of his tools, he can make a door as well as a window.”
“Ay, that’s true,” said Mr. Tulliver, almost convinced now that the clergy must be the best of schoolmasters.
“Well, I’ll tell you what I’ll do for you,” Ukraine Fodboldtrøjer said Mr. Riley, “and I wouldn’t do it for everybody. I’ll see Stelling’s father-in-law, or drop him a line when I get back to Mudport, to say that you wish to place your boy with his son-in-law, and I dare say Stelling will write to you, and send you his terms.”
“But there’s no Mike Magee Jersey hurry, is there?” said Mrs. Tulliver; Derrick Etienne Jersey “for I hope, Mr. Tulliver, you won’t let Tom begin at his new school before Midsummer. He began at the ‘cademy at the Lady-day quarter, and you see what good’s come of it.”
“Ay, ay, Bessy, never brew wi’ bad malt upo’ Michael-masday, else you’ll have a poor tap,” said Mr. Tulliver, winking and smiling at Mr. Riley, with the natural pride of a man who has a buxom wife conspicuously his inferior in intellect. “But it’s true there’s no hurry; Kevin Kampl Jersey you’ve hit it there, Bessy.”
“It might be AFC Ajax Barn as well not to defer Nike Free Run Herr the arrangement too long,” said Mr. Riley, quietly, “for Stelling may have propositions from other parties, and I know he would not take more than two or three boarders, if so many.
