`` Yes : the best and most powerful of all lives in that big house with the bell on the roof , '' said Wee , smiling . `` Why , that 's only the schoolhouse . '' `` Education is a long word , dear ; but you know what it means , and , as you grow older , you will see what wonders it can work . It is a noble giant ; for in this country rich and poor are helped by it , and no one need suffer for it unless they choose . It works more wonders than any other : it changes little children into wise , good men and women , who rule the world , and make happy homes everywhere ; it helps write books , sing songs , paint pictures , do good deeds , and beautify the world . Love and respect it , my little Daisy , and be glad that you live now when such giants lend a hand to dwarfs like us . '' Daisy sat still a long time , looking all about her on the mountain-top ; and , when she rode away , she carried a new thought in her mind , which she never forgot . `` This is the last day of the seven , and no fairies have been found . Do you think I ever shall see one ? '' said Daisy , on the Sunday morning that ended her week 's hunt . `` Not the kind you think of , for there are none such , Daisy ; but you have found two better and more beautiful ones than any fanciful sprites , '' said Wee . `` Have I ? Where are they ? What are their names ? '' Aunt Wee drew her to the glass , and said , as she pointed to Daisy 's face : `` Here they are , and their names are Health and Happiness . There are many ways of losing them , and they are hard to catch when once lost . I wanted you to keep both , and tried to show you how . A happy , healthful hour in the morning sweetens and brightens the whole day ; and there is no fairy-book half so wonderful as the lovely world all about us , if we only know how to read it . '' `` Then all these mornings we were hunting after health and happiness , instead of fairies , were we ? '' `` Yes : have n't you enjoyed it , and do n't you think you have caught my fairies ? ''
Daisy looked from a little picture of herself , which XXXXX had drawn some time ago , to her image in the glass .
