Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from A Daughter of the Philistines The question of marrying or not marrying is an exceedingly momentous one in a woman´s life; and in a man´s too, for that matter. Preliminarily, I believe, every young lady, unless she has been to Vassar, settles it in the affirmative, but leaves the choice of date and victim to Providence and Mamma. If either of these authorities (who in a well-regulated family are nearly synonymous) fails to give satisfaction, the time comes for asserting individual preferences. Papa is called in for consultation (which in well-regulated families is a very rare occurrence), and rebels mildly against Providence, or rather its synonym; there is weeping and wailing, and perhaps even gnashing of teeth, offensive and defensive alliances are formed, and perhaps in the end - but I am anticipating; Miss Alma Hampton, whose agitation I am presently to account for, was as yet far from the end. She was seated on a velvet cushion in the stern of a great cat-boat, - a sort of cross between a clipper and a Chinese junk, - thinking, thinking, thinking, until her cranium seemed in danger of exploding.
