When Sunday came around without the return of Mr. Whitney he determined to make a last effort to find out just where Jerry stood.

In that case it was quite possible that Jerry would fire the first gun before Bob was ready to combat it.,It was evident that great care had been exercised over Betty’s gift. She exclaimed joyously over a Cyclamen, whose pale pink blooms brought the flush of delight to her cheeks; a bag of peppermint bulls’ eyes elicited a like degree of appreciation.,"Anything I can tell him, Billy?" asked Erie, noticing his reluctance.，* * * * * * * *，CHAPTER II.—CONCERNING BETTY.，"Why, Mona?""Weary me! no, indeed. That is one of the very few unkind things you have ever said to me. How could I weary of your voice? Go on; tell me where you keep this magical piano."
