"But wouldn't people give you money for the show if you lived here, grampa? You always got money here the same as other places."
"Yes, my dear, but I could not get fresh pictures every day, and should soon tire them by showing the old house."
"But you are sorry sometimes, grampa, not to have me with you?"
"Yes, Aggie, very sorry. I miss you terribly sometimes, and I am always thinking about you."
"Then why don't you take me away again, grampa?"
"Because, as I told you, Aggie, I want you to learn to read, and to grow up quite a little lady."
"Does reading make one a lady, grampa?"
"No, Aggie, not by itself, but with other things."
"And when I am quite grown up and big, and know how to read nicely, shall I be able to go with you again?"
"We will see about that, Aggie, when the time comes. There is plenty of time yet to think about that."
