(Copyright, McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) The next day after Miss Lumpkin's Selected School for Girls opened for the fall term, Robina Judd, the new- est girl of all, walked ibout the spa- clous grounds with her roommate. ‘Let us go through this cunning gate and. see what is on the other side!” suggested Robins, when they had come to the end of the evergreen Grace Barney glanced up at the for- bidding stone wall and shook her sunny head. “Out of bounds, Robina,” she sald regretfully. “Besides, it's pflnto] property—a perfect ogre of an old‘ man lives there all alone. I asked ! | Miss Lumpkin about him and she sighed and called him “poor, lonely Mr. Hodge—only, you see, Robina, he happens to be rich.” : “Here comes Miss Gerald,” said Ro- bina—"isn’t she a dear?” “My favorite teacher! She has only been here three days and yet I love her better than any of the oth- ers. Sweet and sad and lovely—she— she looks as thoughehe might have suffered, Robina!” The thought of lonely Mr. Hodge | wandering about his perfectly kept grounds haunted the careless mo- ments of Robina Judd. “Some day I ghall go in,” she threatened to her roommate. . “You will have to prove it by bringing me one of those weirdly colored Japanese chrysanthemums from his garden,” Grace replied. “Wait and see!” retorted Robina, and that very afternoon came oppor- tunity. Most of the girls had gone for a long walk in the woods, but Robina, who had slightly twisted her ankle in the gymnasium that morning pre- ferred to hobble around the garden. Finally she came to the door in the wall—the high wall beyond which lived lonely Mr. Hodge. “The time and the place—and I hope the man!” giggled Robina, as she turned the kmob of the little green door. It creaked dismally, opened, and in the distance she could see the mel- lowed walls of a red brick house bathed in the afternoon sunshine ! A gardener was working somewhere . —there was the clicking sound of a | hoe against stones. “It's jolly here” commented Ro- bina, and she rounded a little sum- mer house and came upon the gar- dener; who was, yigorously stirring up the soil in the bed of gorgeous chrys- anthemums. set in & sunburned face, close-shaven and square-jawed. “Well!” he exclaimed. “Well!” gasped Robina, for she had nothing else to say. Then, with sud- den inspiratiop, she added. “The chrysanthemumg are lovely!" “Think so?. Then you must have some,” he degided promptly, and, taking a knife from his pocket, he proceeded . to. qut & huge bunch Fl Duie Flyer is the year-round Jack- sonville to Chicago train.
