V. Her yea were dancing with TOischlef, and I knew that she 'vrelconHtl the! opportunity of get- . ting a rise ou t of Dick y, the f aa- tluious. He ; took the i bait promptly. ;' "You needn't own i us as ac quaintances if 'you don't want ; to," be 'said : huffily. "You go - cn ahead, : and Madge and I will respectfully follow , twelve steps ' in the rear, carrying: the luggage.

"I knoTtl It,' Dicky-bird," LH ' llan replied placatingly, "but you'll-, feel better "as soon as you get into a good hot bath and have, one of Betty's dinners. I Of course, you're going to spend the night with me, so stir your stumps, lad, and. pipe all bands down i to a porter and taxi." "I'm more likely to make you. walk a plank," . Dicky growled, "and what's 4he big Idea any way "of making' your house a hotel?", r - " ; " i "Will you shut-upland get; a ; porter?".

I raised my voice to its normal tones, as , Dicky dropped (back with after transferring the suitcases and bags to the hands or rather arms of the ' porter -the suit case capacity of the arms of a railroad porter, has always beeii a fascinating mystery to me. "Not Jis well as I wish: she ; were,' she replied, her" face : clouding. "We -both had a hec tic .session , with the 'intluenxa 1 while you were gone,; nothing ' eerkms, fortunately, but it' has i left Marion a bit lumpish. U I could onry n have gotten out iato the suburbs with her, but perhaps V you." know . what the he using situation has been. I'm . on my knees . to my 'particular ; little joss every day? In thank : fulness , that 'I've goi '.an iron- bound lease- on my apartments for two years to come.' The land lord has worn his teeth through. ' gnashing them at - his lost oppor t tc&itles for charging eight times " what I ' pay. Queer, he always J seemed a kindly old aoul before. But this profiteering bug seems to make grafters of us all." t , A Promise, but Dicky laughed at her para ; phrase, but there was little mirth in the laughter, r 1 guess : ed that her words had affected him as they had me with a lively ; dread of what "might be - ahead of us when we ) should start, house hunting.

"It you want to see some real 5 house hunting you'd better watch . the missus and me tor the' next two weeks. And " ; while . we're ' about It we . might as' well look - .P something for you, too. We : don't r mind having neighbors '. a . little;' below 'our standard it they're only good lenders." ! . "What do you mean?" Lillian's "voice was sharp.. "Iiooking for a house! You can't mean .

I should think you'd have some lingering conscience f about telling such tarradiddles."- , . , I had my -reward for my 6wn stifled.: conscience when I saw Dicky ' straighten' almost uncon sciously, and the defiant, sulky note vanish from his voice.
