He looked tired, and dis appointed. She hoped somebody else hadn't traded for Tom New ell's car. Well, she wouldn’t ask for awhile. "What*s the matter, Cyrus Pow ers?" she asked when he had fin ished eating. "Nothin’ Nancy, only Tvp de cided ag’inst tradin’ for Newell's car. I’ll have the old one greased and washed, and it’ll look pretty good, agoin* to the New Year Party." "Cyrus Powers, you know bet- ter’n that," Nancy accused. "You was proud when we was young, and you’ve not changed. Why, you usea to take me to the Parties in the finest rubber tire buggy in the county. Your horses always matched your buggy in looks, and you still want a good lookin’ turn out, when you go some place." Cyrus laughed. "And I had the prettiest, best dressed gal of all." An Old Story Nancy smiled. She’d heard that, before. She started clearing off the table. "Cyfiis, tell me the truth. Why did you change your mind about tradin’ for that same- as-new Ford car?" “Nancy, you’re too inquisitive. But the truth is, I had Bud Carter take my bank book to town this mornin’ and have it balanced. We lack fifty doUars havin’ enough boot money. I could borrow it, but that would worry you and me botlj.’’ "Uh-hub." Nancy reached for the teapot and laid thirty-three dollars on the table in front of Cyrus. "Now, y get to town and trade for that car before some body else beats you to it." "No, Nancy. That’s your dress money." He pushed the money away from him. "Shucks! I don’t want a new dress. Get goin’ before I spill dishwater on you." A Good Cry After he was gone, Nancy sat down and, woman like, had a good cry. It had been so long since she’d had a new dress, but she wanted Cyrus to have the car he’d set his heart on. She mended and pressed an old dress to wear. Late in the after noon, she went to the bam and fed the cattle and horses, and milked the cows. Then she locked up the chicken house. It was get ting dark when she saw Cyrus coming into the driveway. She wouldn’t get to see the new car until morning. Cyrus was laughing when he came in. "I found a place in town where they paint cars while you wait, and fix them to look like new. They said our car was in good shape." He was holding something behind him. "You don’t say! Cyrus, what’s that you’re boldin’ behind you?" He grinned and set a dress box on the table. "Since we only had a paint job to pay for, I knew we could afford something else for the party." Nancy took off the box lid and lifted out the blue silk dress.' She smiled, then her face crumpled. Cyrus really had wanted her to have the dress. She mustn’t cry. "Cyrus," she scolded, "I told you to get "the Newell car . . . But you can’t‘trust a man to do as you tell him.” Cyrus grinned, again.
