Q — Does the hedgehog drown in the water if it falls in?
Where is its sensitive mortal spot? Does it replace the quills it loses? And how does it fight its adversary? A Schoolgirl
A — The hedgehog does not drown in the water if it is plunged into it, for its hollow quills, which it fills with air, keep it afloat and save it from sinking. It replaces its cast quills within a few months.
And when it means harm to its adversary, it swings its tail right and left and shoots from it a keen quill, which pierces the adversary's body and brings him down.
Q — I married, at sixteen years of age, a wealthy man, and after the tenth year of this marriage we had four children. But how my husband's odious conduct has stirred my sorrows! He comes home only rarely, with a brazen face that accepts no advice and listens to no reproach...

For what fault is it of these children, all that the days have wrought?
Persevere on the path of your lofty mission. A house will never lose its balance while within its walls dwell the mother's humble tenderness and the pride of sacrifice.
Q — My mother keeps steering my thoughts toward my cousin, my aunt's daughter, enumerating her merits and her ample readiness to face life.
And my father recites his daily directives, praising my cousin on his side of the family, her tact and her capability.
While I yearn with longing for the girl who sat beside me on the school bench, in whom I found an understanding and a feeling that bind me to her. Which way am I to take? A Seeker of Stability
A — Your father and your mother intend nothing but good by their guidance; it was a duty upon them, and the decision has now passed into your own judgment. As for you, if you possess any strength of will, knock at the door of your heart earnestly and with understanding; entrust to your conscious mind the final, plain verdict; and go over with your family the direction of your
