"Well, now that it is all over, won't you come on to the house and have supper?" said Betty's cousin, as they came out of the telegraph office. "I must say, you girls know how to do things." "Oh, you can always trust Betty for that," said Mollie. "It just did itself," declared Betty. "Everything seemed to work out of its own accord from the time we found the five hundred dollar bill." "But you helped a lot," insisted Amy. "Indeed she did," added Grace.

 a little delay, but not much, and soon Mr. Blackford was in a position to take up his option. A local bank, where the telegraph concern did business, paid over the five hundred in cash, and four hundred of this was at once sent on to New York, by telegraph. "I hope it reaches my man," said Mr. Blackford. "I have told him to wire me here." A little later word was received that the transaction had been successfully carried out. Mr. Blackford could now get control of the business. "And it's all due to you young ladies!" he said, gratefully. "I don't know how to thank you. You are entitled to a reward--" "Don't you dare mention it!" cried Betty, "Well, some day I'll pay you back for all you did for me!" he exclaimed, warmly. "I won't forget. And now that I have some money to spare, I'm going to get a new suit of clothes." He said good-bye to the girls, promising to see them again some time, and then he left, having made arrangements to go on to New York and finish up his business affairs.
