"Not Mrs. Old-thing there, at any rate. And how can anybody tell, Pink?"
"I don't know," said Matilda; "and so it seems to me the best way would be to act as if everybody depended on you; and then you would be sure and make no mistake."
"You would be making mistakes the whole time," said Norton. "It would be all one grand mistake."
"Ah, but it cannot be a mistake, Norton,"—she stopped suddenly.
"What cannot be a mistake?"
"It cannot be a mistake, to do anything that God has given you to do."
"How can you tell?" said Norton. "It's all like a Chinese puzzle. How can you tell which piece fits into which?"
"But if every piece fitted, then the pattern would be all right," said Matilda.
"Yes," said Norton, laughing; "but that is what I say! How can you tell?"
"Mr. Richmond says, that whenever we have an opportunity to do anything or to learn anything, the Lord means that we should use it."
