Mr. Bhaer, in one of their conversations, had advised her to study simple, true, and lovely characters, wherever she found them, as good training for a writer. Jo took him at his word, for she coolly turned round and studied him -- a proceeding which would have much surprised him, had he know it, for the worthy Professor was very humble in his own conceit.
