"I'll consider the matter," she said musingly.

that important detail.

"Oh, yes--the price," agreed Miss Purry indifferently; "I've been
holding it at two hundred thousand. I shall continue to hold it at
that figure."

"Then that's the price," decided Johnny. "Can't we come to an
agreement now?"

"To-morrow afternoon at three," she dryly insisted.

He saw that she meant to-morrow afternoon at three.
