recital, though she kept her eyes flxed
gravely upon him. In moment the
gentleman in blue serge who had
manifested so much feeling over the
governors absence strobe again into
the room.
"Ah. Miss Osborne, so you are
back"
He bowed over the girls hand with
great deal Of manner, then glanced
at once toward the door of the private
office
Hasn't your father come in yet?
I have been looking for him since

Not home! Do you mean to say that
he won't be here today"
81 hardly expect him." replied the
girl calmly VERY likely he will be
at home tonight or in the morning.
Griswold had walked away out OF
hearing; but he felt that the girl pur-
posedly raised her voice so that he
might hear what she said.

was quite evident that she was AMI
mated now by some purpose, and that
she was resolved to avail herself OF
Griswolds proffered aid.
This whole matter must be kept
as quiet as possible. I can appeal TO

father very great injury. But If 1t Is

Miss Osborne turned her back and
walked to the window. Bosworth
stared a moment then rushed angrily
from the room. Griswold abandoned
his study of the picture, and gravely
inclined his head as Bosworth passed.
Then he waited a minute. The girl
still stood at the window, and there
was, Griswold felt, something little
| forlorn in her figure. 1t was quite

train for Richmond. He crossed the

educator undertakes to improve the
mental processes of his students. How
can he do it unless he has correct

He needs to be able to form a judy
ment as to what can and ought to be
emphasized in the period of Adde'S
