"Oh,the cups!And the book!Mom,I am sorry!" Julia cried.
"Yes,Julia,I believe you are sorry;but make this sorrow of use to you.It is true the broken cups and the book can not be restored;but let it be a warning to you in future.If you continue to be so careless,you will not only suffer from it yourself,but it will be a constant source of trouble to others. "
"Mom,I will change-indeed I will. " Throwing her little arms round her mother's neck,Julia promised sincerely.
