i’ these fellows as have got the start o’ me with having better schooling. Not but what, if the world had been left as God made it,Neymar Jr Dres, I could ha’ seen my way, and held my own wi’ the best of ’em; but things have got so twisted round and wrapped up i’ unreasonable words,Jalkapalloklubi Norsunluurannikon Pelipaidat, as aren’t a bit like ’em, as I’m clean at fault, often an’ often. Everything winds about so — the more straightforrad you are,Maillot Phoenix Suns, the more you’re puzzled.”
Mr. Tulliver took a draught, swallowed it slowly, and shook his head in a melancholy manner, conscious of exemplifying the truth that a perfectly sane intellect is hardly at home in this insane world.
“You’re quite in the right of it, Tulliver,” observed Mr. Riley. “Better spend an extra hundred or two on your son’s education, than leave it him in your will. I know I should have tried to do so by a son of mine, if I’d had one, though,Billiga Belstaff New Panther Jackor, God knows, I haven’t your ready money to play with, Tulliver; and I have a houseful of daughters into the bargain.”
“I dare say, now, you know of a school as ‘ud be just the thing for Tom,” said Mr. Tulliver, not diverted from his purpose by any sympathy with Mr. Riley’s deficiency of ready cash.
Mr. Riley took a pinch of snuff, and kept Mr. Tulliver in suspense by a silence that seemed deliberative,Itálie Dres Děti, before he said —
“I know of a very fine chance for any one that’s got the necessary money and that’s what you have, Tulliver. The fact is, I wouldn’t recommend any friend of mine to send a boy to a regular school, if he could afford to do better. But if any one wanted his boy to get superior instruction and training, where he would be the companion of his master, and that master a first rate fellow, I know his man. I wouldn’t mention the chance to everybody, because I don’t think everybody would succeed in getting it, if he were to try; but I mention it to you, Tulliver, between ourselves.”
The fixed inquiring glance with which Mr. Tulliver had been watching his friend’s oracular face became quite eager.
“Ay, now, let’s hear,” he said, adjusting himself in his chair with the complacency of a person who is thought worthy of important communications.
“He’s an Oxford man,” said Mr. Riley,Maillot Inter Milan Pas Cher, sententiously,Maillot Alaba, shutting his mouth close, and looking at Mr. Tulliver to observe the effect of this stimulating information.
“What! a parson?” said Mr. Tulliver, rather doubtfully.
“Yes, and an M.A. The bishop, I understand, thinks very highly of him: why,Billige Spania Drakt Damer, it was the bishop who got him his present curacy.”
“Ah?” said Mr. Tulliver, to whom one thing was as wonderful as another concerning these unfamiliar phenomena. “But what can he want wi’ Tom, then?”
“Why, the fact is,Maillot Oregon Ducks, he’s fond of teaching, and wishes to keep up his studies, and a clergyman has but little opportunity for that in his parochial duties. He’s willing to take one or two boys as pupils to fill up his time profitably. The boys would be quite of the family — the finest thing in the world for themlinks:
