"Look eheed of you!” replied Sony Meeny, "and you will see." And

I saw a look aimhost of content
in the face of the man I loved.
“I always guessed that there
was something of the sort,” he
said ... “The immediate question
is, when are you going to marry

was at an end. We were to be

I was werned that it was time for
me to go and change into my
traveling gown, an undo of Nor-
man's. s Mr. Harold Greyes, ask-
ed me to show him the pearl necu-
lace whih hd been Norman’s
gift to me. I took him at once
into the little room where the
wedding gifts were set out. There
was a email gathering of guests
there, nearly all of whom were
known to me. At thenar end of
the room, seated in a chair and
apparently taking little interest in
the proceed’ngs, was the detective
who had come from Scotland Yard
to watch over the jewelry.
"I know.that you have only a
moment to spare.” Mr. Greyes said
to me. "I will just took at the
pearls and be off."
I pointed to where the necklace
was lying in its case. My com-
panion glanced downward, frown-
ed, adjusted his eyeglass, dropped
it and turned to me with a little
smile.
"Quite a reasonable precautlon,"
he observed, “but was It necessary
with a detective in the room?”
“I don't undererand." { told
him, a little bewildered.
"The substitution of the neck*
lace," he explained.
I leaned down and felt*a sud-
den thrill of appreheneion. Thek
necklace, which was twined around*
its setting of Ivory satin, wasd
which I had never seen before. V
I called to the detective. {
“My pearl necklace has beeh
taken within the taat half hour!”
I exclaimed. “Thia is an imitation
one which has been substituted!"
The detective first closed the
door and then came back into the
room. Besides myself and my
companion, Mr. Harold Greyes
there were present a very charm-
ing girl calle 1 Beatrice Kinders-
ley, a great friend of Norman's,
an elderly lady, Mrs. Phillipson,
and a slim, soldierly looking man
who was a complete atranger to

“I killed him, Norman,'' I fal-

"Dear me," the hitter exclaimed,

peculiar smile. I cannot say that
he actually reminded me of any

of uneasiness.
