It would have been a pull. Little things like that count, you know, and I am anxious to get ahead.” | “Now, honey,” Bonnie May smiled disarmingly. “Owning the same kind of dog your employer has doesn’t help you. It's what you do with your job. “You are mistaken, Doll. Ask any of the fellows at the mill. They are always doing things to call the old man’s at- tention to them.” «Tell him he speaks piffle, Nick!” she challenged gayly. *But the dog merely growled without opening his eyes. One day George found Bonnie May in tears; Nick had chewed through the hated leash and was gone. “He'll probably find his way back to Carp Center,” comforted George. “We' n| wait for word from there.” il “we will not wait!” declared Bonnie May. “T'll have a notice in the evening paper about him, offering a reward.

AS the painted table beneath the casement 4n the shining kitchen sat Bonnie May, facing grizzled Perigo Scott. On a chair between them was grizzled Nick, ears erect, tail quivering. He was en- joying life again. g "Alas- for the tiny sandwiches and cakes and shell-like cups of tea! Be- fore Perigo Scott was a section of the deep-dish apple pie Bonnie May had baked for dinner. Between them was a plate heaped with hot, spicy squares of the gingerbread she had baked for|’ supper. There was cream for the pie, | butter for the gingerbread and the Kitchen coffee pot, smoking hot. The old man had just bestowed a crumb of gingerbread on Nick, who politely shook hands with the donor. Nick! The old man! The kitchen!
