"Yes; that's my idea of teaching botany. Text-books are so dry and dull, I think." "So do I," said Midge; "I looked in a botany book once, and it was awful poky. Tell us more, Miss Hart." "Not to-day, dearie; it's one o'clock, and school is over for to-day." "One o'clock!" both girls exclaimed at once; "it can't be!"
"Yes, dearie, yes, we'll come out under the plum tree, we will," echoed Mrs. Prettyman. "See, Nursie, take my arm, I'll help you out into the warm sunshine," Robinette said.

"It isn't, dearie," Pollyanna at last soothed laughingly. But Mrs.
