But the fact is, that multitudes either do not know, or do not at the time remember how to read to advantage and, therefore, profit but little by what they read. It may seem strange to some people, that I should give directions for the performance of an act so well understood as the perusal of a book and especially the perusal of a book of so simple and elementary a kind as this. ![]() ![]() ![]() But when Maryann's parents hold fast to their arranged marriage plan, it'll take a scandal of epic proportions for these two to get out of this together.
