Excerpt from The Daisy Chain: Or Aspirations, a Family Chronicle Good morning, Ethel, good morning, Flora, ' said the prim, middle-aged, daily governess, taking off her bonnet, and arranging the stiff little rolls of curl at the long, narrow looking-glass, the border of which distorted the countenance.
