Lillian smiled whimsically.

Her prophecy was only too well
fulfilled. For the next week we
covered in the faithful car my father
had given me every village Dicky
had listed. We interviewed agents
naughty and agents eager. We
weeded out the places which were
out Of the question. conscientiously
inspected those which appeared TO

list Of three places which we drove

Just as the bunny rabbit said this

bush and a moment later a butterfly
perched itself on the shoulder of the
bunny gentleman.

Uncle Wiggily. This is no time Of

the butterfly in a sad and shivery

dear! What shall 1 do I am so

The sun was shining. but there
was little warmth in the rays and the
wind cold and chill.

"Oh, mercy, What's that?" cried
Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy.

Uncle Wiggily. Il thought he might

"Of course!" invited Nurse Jane.

the butterfly "A drop OF sweet wa

Lillian cast a swife, furtive glance
at me as Dicky airily suggested my
looking for two or three places
close together" in order that the
Durkees might move near us if the
new neighbOrs should prove too una
bearable. 1 knew that her thoughts
had leaped TO the same possibility
as mine, that OF Edith Fairfax con-
tinuing to live in my vicinity. But
with Dicky's eyes upon me I gave
no indication that I had caught her
glance or that his suggestion either
ruffled or interested me.
TN be glad 10 look out for them, &"
1 said sedately. although from what
Lillian tells me, I'm afraid we shan
have to go far afeld unless we take
something inferior TO the home

Dicky's jaw set stubbornly.
We'll. if I can't get something as
good or better than this I'll invest
the money and We'll rent for
awhile!"
May 1 ask where?" Lillian in
terposed dryly. I've been told it's
hard to get even a respectable chick

housekeeping"
ooh, you'll hear that rot all over, -
Dicky returned. with the incurable
optimism Of a man whose women
folk" are going TO perform some task
for him. That's just a dodge of the
real estate men. If you hunt around
and don't let those slick suburban
real estators pull wool over your eyes
you'll find dozens Of places"
Want to lay a little wager.

that she have evolved some scheme
