Her lack of familiarity with social customs and all that, I _know_ I can remedy.

Oh, I expect a busy time with her,--and I know I shall have to be tactful and kind,--but don't you think I can be ?" Farnsworth kissed the wistful, questioning face upturned to his and assured her that she most certainly could! So Patty gaily set about her preparations of the pretty guest chamber.
She hoped Azalea liked yellow,--most girls did,--but if not, she could easily be moved to the pink guest room.
This yellow room, however, was so well adapted for a young girl.

There was a long French window that opened on the dearest little balcony, where the wistaria clambered and made a delightful shade.

There was an alcove, where stood a Chippendale writing desk, and a revolving book rack.

There was a sewing corner, with a fully furnished work-stand; and there was a soft puffy couch, with a pile of down pillows and a fluffy yellow afghan.
And yet there was ample room for the bed, with its dimity draperies, and the fascinating toilet table, with its bewildering array of ivory fittings.
Uncertain of her guest's tastes, Patty put out few books, only a story or two of general interest and a couple of new magazines.
