I knew that he had caught sight ot | the child’s expressive, humiliated face when he said that nobody had kissed him, and had hastened to make amends. Her face changed its expression so suddenly that she gave the effect of laughing and crying at once, but little Mrs. Durkee's laugh- ing voice fortunately took our atten- tion from her. : “You may kiss me now if you like, . Dicy-bird,”" she said, with her pretty lips adorably pouted toward him. “I'm so happy now I don't care it my complexion does come off.”" Dicky looked at her doubtfully, then gravely drew a handkerchief tfrom his pocket, pretended to dust her face, then looked at it, and bent toward her “1 guess it's safe,” he said solemn- aml approval Uncloe to the I can the place are! e out hey pting es discovered the wnd her clear sharp ey Rravelers first, Jalded their coming.
