What Will He Do with It? Two Volumes in One (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from What Will He Do With It?: Two Volumes in One The girl slunk back shyly, but her companions pushed her forward, and she ended by selecting a cherry-coloured ribbon, for which the boy paid carelessly, while his elder and wiser friend looked at him with grave, compassionate rebuke, and grumbled out, Dr. Franklin tells us that once in his life he paid too dear for a whistle; but then he was only seven years old, and a whistle has its uses. But to pay such a price for a scratch-back!-prodigal! Come along. As the friends strolled on, naturally enough all the young girls who wished for ribbons, and were possessed of scratch backs, followed in their wake. Scratch went the instrument, but in vain.
