True
,
the
knife
would
not
cut
anything
,
but
it
was
a
"
sure-enough
"
Barlow
,
and
there
was
inconceivable
grandeur
in
that
--
though
where
the
Western
boys
ever
got
the
idea
that
such
a
weapon
could
possibly
be
counterfeited
to
its
injury
is
an
imposing
mystery
and
will
always
remain
so
,
perhaps
.
Tom
contrived
to
scarify
the
cupboard
with
it
,
and
was
arranging
to
begin
on
the
bureau
,
when
he
was
called
off
to
dress
for
Sunday-school
.
212
Mary
gave
him
a
tin
basin
of
water
and
a
piece
of
soap
,
and
he
went
outside
the
door
and
set
the
basin
on
a
little
bench
there
;
then
he
dipped
the
soap
in
the
water
and
laid
it
down
;
turned
up
his
sleeves
;
poured
out
the
water
on
the
ground
,
gently
,
and
then
entered
the
kitchen
and
began
to
wipe
his
face
diligently
on
the
towel
behind
the
door
.
But
Mary
removed
the
towel
and
said
:
213
"
Now
ai
n't
you
ashamed
,
Tom
.
You
must
n't
be
so
bad
.
Water
wo
n't
hurt
you
.
"

Tom
was
a
trifle
disconcerted
.
The
basin
was
refilled
,
and
this
time
he
stood
over
it
a
little
while
,
gathering
resolution
;
took
in
a
big
breath
and
began
.
When
he
entered
the
kitchen
presently
,
with
both
eyes
shut
and
groping
for
the
towel
with
his
hands
,
an
honorable
testimony
of
suds
and
water
was
dripping
from
his
face
.
But
when
he
emerged
from
the
towel
,
he
was
not
yet
satisfactory
,
for
the
clean
territory
stopped
short
at
his
chin
and
his
jaws
,
like
a
mask
;
below
and
beyond
this
line
there
was
a
dark
expanse
of
unirrigated
soil
that
spread
downward
in
front
and
backward
around
his
neck
.
Mary
took
him
in
hand
,
and
when
she
was
done
with
him
he
was
a
man
and
a
brother
,
without
distinction
of
color
,
and
his
saturated
hair
was
neatly
brushed
,
and
its
short
curls
wrought
into
a
dainty
and
symmetrical
general
effect
.
(
He
privately
smoothed
out
the
curls
,
with
labor
and
difficulty
,
and
plastered
his
hair
close
down
to
his
head
;
for
he
held
curls
to
be
effeminate
,
and
his
own
filled
his
life
with
bitterness
.
)
215
Then
Mary
got
out
a
suit
of
his
clothing
that
had
been
used
only
on
Sundays
during
two
years
--
they
were
simply
called
his
"
other
clothes
"
--
and
so
by
that
we
know
the
size
of
his
wardrobe
.
The
girl
"
put
him
to
rights
"
after
he
had
dressed
himself
;
she
buttoned
his
neat
roundabout
up
to
his
chin
,
turned
his
vast
shirt
collar
down
over
his
shoulders
,
brushed
him
off
and
crowned
him
with
his
speckled
straw
hat
.
He
now
looked
exceedingly
improved
and
uncomfortable
.
He
was
fully
as
uncomfortable
as
he
looked
;
for
there
was
a
restraint
about
whole
clothes
and
cleanliness
that
galled
him
.
He
hoped
that
Mary
would
forget
his
shoes
,
but
the
hope
was
blighted
;
she
coated
them
thoroughly
with
tallow
,
as
was
the
custom
,
and
brought
them
out
.
He
lost
his
temper
and
said
he
was
always
being
made
to
do
everything
he
did
n't
want
to
do
.
But
Mary
said
,
persuasively
:
216
"
Please
,
Tom
--
that
's
a
good
boy
.
"
217
So
he
got
into
the
shoes
snarling
.
Mary
was
soon
ready
,
and
the
three
children
set
out
for
Sunday-school
--
a
place
that
Tom
hated
with
his
whole
heart
;
but
Sid
and
Mary
were
fond
of
it
.

Sabbath-school
hours
were
from
nine
to
half-past
ten
;
and
then
church
service
.
Two
of
the
children
always
remained
for
the
sermon
voluntarily
,
and
the
other
always
remained
too
--
for
stronger
reasons
.
The
church
's
high-backed
,
uncushioned
pews
would
seat
about
three
hundred
persons
;
the
edifice
was
but
a
small
,
plain
affair
,
with
a
sort
of
pine
board
tree-box
on
top
of
it
for
a
steeple
.
At
the
door
Tom
dropped
back
a
step
and
accosted
a
Sunday-dressed
comrade
:
219
"
Say
,
Billy
,
got
a
yaller
ticket
?
"
220
"
Yes
.
"
