It is high time, mother, that I found something to do. Father seems to be worse, and I’m afraid before long he won’t be able to go to work every day. Ever since I finished schooling I’ve felt like a fish out of water. And stowing away the remainder of the slice of bread he was eating, Richard Dare leaned back in his chair and gazed inquiringly across the breakfast-table to where his mother stood, ready to clear away the dishes when he had finished his meal. I’m sure you have been busy enough, Richard, responded Mrs. Dare fondly. I am well satisfied with the way you have planted the garden; and no carpenter could have made a neater job of the front fence. You haven’t wasted your time.
