house but Jack, her husband. When
he saw George Freer and the basket;
and h i* wife he sensed at once what

“ Keen to that auction over on Miller;

with ri£rvoiisri£ss.
“ W ell,” said Jack, “ le t’s see what

the contents of the basket. First he!
took out three or four dltapituted j

than a quarter were absolutely worth-;
Iss now from nicks and cracks; herd
was an Ola wasli bowl and pitcher,
two or three hand lamps, and a few
other articles which were quite worth-:

“ 1 think," Dora said, soberly, “ that

Jack, dear, I also think I'v e 'g o t the

“ Enough said,” said Jack heartily',
