All sorts of pretty, sweetly-smelling old wild blossoms are blooming in them, as gayly as though they have forgotten the fact that autumn is rejoicing in all its matured beauty. Crimson and white and purple asters stand calmly gazing towards the sky; here a flaming fuchsia droops its head, and there, apart from all the rest, smiles an enchanting rose.,“It’s a dark outlook here for the young gentleman,” said Carlstrom. “The horse’s wind is broken.”,Patricia halted by the chair at a side table where her name card lay.
