 ''i know that you've been looking at her and~and''- Something was h. ,erfering with the speech of young Mir Waileway However. he mastered the difficulty Suddenly reaching out, he 9rasped the cherub's right hand and gave t n crushing grip, Fl wish you luck. old man.
 Perhaps Mir. Deyine was little sur. prisea by this unexpected display of emotion from tue usually reserved young man. If he WIS h. brushed II aside

You would not have guessed. 10 look at him. that he was considering anss thing more serious than the flavor of the tobacco Not until they aere en the ferry dld he break the silence. Then. briefly and crispls, he outlined his plan of action. Nick NaliowAy heanl him through with glow of ad miratien ln hls eyes.
 If you can do that, Cheruh, yeull win.e he declared. but If the scheme slips ups-
 Then Fun down and out Hut is's got to 70 through aud Mr nevine's mouth lost sone of its cheruhie curves. You'll do your part Nick.
