I'll be a regular boarder." The young men said good-by at the Wyeth door.

Mrs.Wyeth did not ask them in, although the persistent Samuel threw out some pointed hints.
Crawford Smith and Mary shook hands.
"I've had an awfully good time," declared the former.

Then, turning to Mrs.Wyeth, he asked: "May I call occasionally ?" Mrs.Wyeth's answer was, as usual, frank and unmistakable.
"Yes," she said.

"I shall be very glad to see you--occasionally." Crawford turned to Mary.
"May I ?" he asked.
Mary scarcely knew how to reply.

There was no real reason why he should not call; she liked him so far.
