A surprising ending for the reader, and a cruel ending for Joy-Hulga and a well-developed plot. She does not believe in Christianity but in good nature in human-beings. However, Pointer, the bible salesman, seemingly a pious Christian, is actually an evil. He enjoys teasing handicapped women—Hulga and the woman with artificial eyes. He never looks like one.
A good short story does not end as an ordinary reader expects. This work is a typical example of this kind. The contrast of pious Hulga and evil Pointer is the key point of this story. What will become of Hulga-Joy? She has a JOYful life by education, but she turns out to be a miserable girl like Hulga.
The ending paragraph where Mrs. Hopewell and Mrs. Freeman talk about Pointer without knowing his true nature is also good.
