A few minutes later Dick and Garrick were on the Club porch. Professor Vario was there with Mrs. Walden, very thoughtful and sympathetic. In fact, he was so at- tentive that Garrick found himself; wondering where lay his interest-—in mother or daughter? “It beats the devil,” himself wondering, *how | dering scientists can be and deep in their own fields—and such children when it comes to affairs of life and the heart,” | Dick saw nothing.
