Only because he could not disregard the last wishes of a dearly loved friend and colleague, did Professor John White accept the guardianship of his friend's daughter Edith. The professor was a man who knew more about science than he did about women, in fact he had never any time to devote to the latter, since he devoted all his time to the former. It required considerable courage on his part to make his first visit. Edith was living with a maiden aunt, and Auntie promptly ordered the professor from the house. He scarcely knew how to proceed. Still he did not want to be outwitted, so he bought two tickets for the circus and managed to get word to Edith. She was very glad to accompany her guardian. When Edith returned home, her Auntie made such a fuss, that the girl decided to live at the professor's home. That good man was very much embarrassed, but once he had accepted the conditions, he certainly made it very pleasant for his ward. About three years later, Hugh Thomas, an old college friend of the professor, came to pay him a visit. Hugh was not a bit bashful either, and it was not very long before he had asked Edith to be his wife. Edith referred him to the professor, who had just about wakened up to the fact that he wanted her himself, but when Hugh asked for Edith's hand, the professor thought that Hugh was her choice, Hugh being younger and dressier, so he gave his consent. When the young man returned to her with the news, Edith promptly rejected him. Then she ran to the professor, who was decidedly gloomy, and told him that she loved only him.
