     "But if you call me Anne please call me Anne spelled with an e."

     "What difference does it make how it's spelled?" asked Marilla with another rusty smile as she picked up the teapot.

     "Oh, it makes such a difference. It looks so much nicer. When you hear a name pronounced can't you always see it in your mind, just as if it was printed out? I can, and A-n-n looks dreadful, but A-n-n-e looks so much more distinguished."
