Inside of this was another of white candytuft. This double wall encircled a splendid array of flowers. There were dwarf nasturtiums, red and yellow, a tangled mass of sweet peas clambering up a yard or two of chickenwire, bright marigolds and asters of various colors. Velvet pansies added their soft charms to the display. But most brilliant of all stood a few hollyhocks.

“A girl under foot all the time,” Shifty complained. He had no sister.,“I guess ours’ll be a grown-up chap; but I wish he’d be a boy my size.
