Dicky’s Plan. “Of course, there's one way out,” she reflected. “The deal's not fin'sh- ed until you sign the deed. And if Richard’s been fool enough to give posaession in a week’'s time, something which 1 wouldn't put past him for a minute, you can hold out on sign ng until they change the date of posses- sion.” “Probably something can be done,” I said non-committally, with a wary remembrance of her lightninz change of attitude toward the signing of the deed but a few hours before. “Well, T should think so!" she snort- ¢d. “I can manage Richard if you can't!"” I quickly caught up Junior, who was playing at my knee, in order to scroen my laughing face from her gaze. The remembrance of the way Dicky had just wound her completely round his figger was too delicpous In contrast to her calm assurance. “Isn't he just too cunning, mother ?" 1 exclaimed. “He's gan'ma’s pessus baby,” she re. confided motre of lis purposes to mo turned fatoously, and I knew that the than he had to her.

I kept her busy dilating on Junior's perfections, and in plans for his spring wardrobe until Dicky’s return, know- ing that was the surest method of warding off any return to the trouble- filled subject of the deed. Dicky came in whistling, evidently at peace with himself and the world. “Kendrick will be back with the ma- zuma day after tomorrow,” he raid, and we'll go down and s'gn the deed. And tomorrow we're going on a real jaunt. 1 asked Jim Paige whether mother would dare make the trip, and ; ho sald not under an consideration. But I want to go.
