Excerpt from Beetzen Manor: A Romance

Then Ditscha must dust, for which Aunt Bertha has provided her with an old pair of her uncle's Chamois-skin gloves, that her hands may not suf fer, since by the hands one recognizes a true lady. Then she practises, on the piano, heavy classical music. Aunt Anna, who teaches her, despises all salon trash. Finally she may go and bid good day to Aunt Clementine, whose sick-room is in the tower, and who, about this time, has been placed by her nurse, Mrs. Hannah, in her invalid chair, which stands day in and day out by the window affording the widest view of all in the manor, and which the poor cripple so loves, poor crippled, gentle Aunt Clementine.
