Internationaler Buchtitel. In englischer Sprache. Verlag: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 206 Seiten, L=152mm, B=229mm, H=12mm, Gew.=308gr, Kartoniert/Broschiert, Klappentext: Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III. WHICH PARTLY EXPLAINS ITSELF. Dorothy Beed was of a somewhat livelier temperament than Donald, and that, as she often could not but feel, gave her an advantage. Also, she was ahead of him in history, botany, and rhetoric. Donald, though full of boyish spirit, was steadier, more self-possessed than Dorothy, and in algebra and physical geography he " left her nowhere," as the young lady herself would tersely confess when in a very good humor. But never were brother and sister better friends. " She's first-rate," Don would say, confidentially, to some boon companion, " not a bit like a girl, you know, ? more like ? well, no, there's nothing tom- boyish about her, but she's spirited and never gets tired or sickish like other girls." And many a time Dorothy had declared to some choice confidential friend of the twining- arms sort, that Donald was "perfectly splendid! nicer than all the boys she ever had seen, put together." On one point they were fully united, and that was in their love for Uncle George, though of late it seemed that he was constantly making rough weather for them. This expression, " rough weather," is not original, but isborrowed from Sailor Jack, whom you soon shall know nearly as well as the two D's did. And " the two D's" is not original either. That is Liddy's. She called Donald and Dorothy " the two D's " for brevity's sake, when they were not present, just as she often spoke of the master of the house, in his absence, as " Mr. G." There was no thought of disrespect in this. It was a way that had come upon her after she had learned her alphabet in middle life, and had stopped just at the point of knowing or guessing the first letter of a word or a name. Farther than that into the paths of learning, Liddy's patience had failed to c...<
