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.'
