On the roof, Rosa improvised a sort of garden, with honeysuckles, sweet-peas, and nasturtiums, and here they kept a sheep, with long, silky wool, for a model. Very often Isadore would take him on his back and carry him down the six flights of stairs, the day of elevators had not dawned, and after he had enjoyed grazing, would bring him back to his garden home.

'Monsieur Isadore, she exclaimed, 'working in the garden and washing pots and pans! Why, don't you know some people think he is almost as good as our head chef Leonard?

Everything is all right!" "What do you mean?" Then, as though the current of his returning vigor could know no bounds, he scooped her in a one-armed embrace that fairly raised her from the floor. "All of a sudden, when you went out, Renie, I remembered Aunt Becky. You remember she was the one who made Uncle Isadore fork over to papa that time about the mortgage?" "Yes, yes."

Ruth related the affair in a few words, while she helped Tom bind up Reno's wounds. The young master tore up his handkerchiefs to do duty as bandages for the wounded dog. "We'll carry him to camp we can do it, easily enough, old man," said Bob Steele. "And what about the panther? Don't we want his pelt?" cried Isadore. "We'll send Long Jerry after that," Tom said.

The place had been packed with people, but the clock had just struck ten and the readers were leaving reluctantly, many with books under their arms. At sight of Deborah and her father, Isadore leaped up from his desk and came quickly to meet them with outstretched hands. "Oh, this is splendid! Good evening!" he cried.

They traveled as far as Cheslow together, where Heavy and Belle and Lluella went to their homes for a day or two, to finish out the tag-end of the vacation, while the Steeles and Isadore went home with the Camerons, and Ruth returned to the Red Mill. And how glad Aunt Alvirah was to see Ruth!

This question he put to Ralph Tingley and the latter flushed angrily. "You wait!" he exclaimed. "Father will be angry, I bet. I told mother not to let the men have anything to do with the hunt, but you know how women are. She was afraid. She said that if Blent and the constable were within their legal rights " "All bosh!" snapped Isadore Phelps. "I do not think Mrs.

The sons, Auguste and Isadore, had both become artists; the former a painter, the latter a sculptor. Even little Juliette was learning to paint. Rosa was working hard all day at her easel, and at night was illustrating books, or molding little groups of animals for the figure-dealers. All the family were happy despite their poverty, because they had congenial work.

Isadore Binswanger rose from his couch, pressing his friend's hand and passing him round the little circle. "Pa, meet Irving Shapiro, city man for the Empire Waist Company. Irv, meet my father and mother and my sister." A round of handshaking. "We're as excited as a barnyard round here, Irv; the governor and the family just decided to light out for Europe for two months." "Europe!"

Sally closed her eyes, and as she did so from somewhere up near the roof there came the song of a bird. Isadore Abrahams was a man of his word. He advertised a Flower Garden, and he had tried to give the public something as closely resembling a flower-garden as it was possible for an overcrowded, overheated, overnoisy Broadway dancing-resort to achieve.
