"My lover
would be ready to give up his engagement," said the youngest, who was betrothed
to a paver's hammer; and the hammer is the thing which drives great piles into
the earth, like a machine, and therefore does on a large scale what ten maidens
effect in a similar way. "He wants to marry me as a maiden, but whether he would
have me were I a hand-rammer is a question, so I won't have my name changed."
"And I," said the elder one, "would rather have both my arms broken
off."
But the Wheelbarrow was of a different opinion; and the Wheelbarrow
was looked upon as of some consequence, for he considered himself a quarter of a
coach, because he went about upon one wheel. "I must submit to your notice," he
said, "that the name 'maiden' is common enough, and not nearly so refined as
'hand-rammer,' or 'stamper,' which latter has also been proposed, and through
which you would be introduced into the category of seals; and only think of the
great stamp of state, which impresses the royal seal that gives effect to the
laws! No, in your case I would surrender my maiden name."
"No, certainly
not!" exclaimed the elder. "I am too old for that." "I presume you have never
heard of what is called 'European necessity?'" observed the honest Measuring
Tape. "One must be able to adapt one's self to time and circumstances, and if
there is a law that the 'maiden' is to be called 'hand-rammer,' why, she must be
called 'hand-rammer,' and no pouting will avail, for everything has its
measure." "No; if there must be a change," said the younger, "I should prefer to
be called 'Missy,' for that reminds one a little of maidens."
