to mother about the necklace.
"We’ll go upstairs and look for it,”
replied mother, with simple confidence.
“You might be mistaken, you know.”
I suggested darkly, “that funny little
thing in black—no one knew her."’
«She left the hotel bag and baggage
Just befoe you came down,” serenely
assured mother. “Her eyes were still
red from weeping, poo thing."
"Wh re is the Slater man?” I wanted
to know
"He loaned her his motor. She was
still nervous and crying.”
By that time we had reached my
room, Eulalle stood in the doorway
that separated her room from mine.
Her ryes, dilated, were framed in a
white, scared face. She held out mute-
ly her empty jewel case and her silver
mesh bag, minus its contents.
“There must be a dishonest maid
about the house,” walled poor, dear
mother.
A piercing shriek from the floor
above echoed through the halls. We
all ran out. Such a sight as met our
eyes—women guests running hither
and thither holding in their hands
empty pocketbooks, jewel cases and I
stunningest man I ever saw I “Did you
ever see anyone so distinguished?”
gushed mother.
Just then the stranger locked about
and, after giving me a mere passing
glance, his eyes rested on the face of
the woman in black. The kindest ex-
pression came into his eyes—the way
one looks at helpless, pretty babies.
His eyes wandered on to Eulalie.

When I could no longer bear the ac-

fled to my room.
I unfastened a string of pearls from
my throat, threw them on the dresser
and myself on a couch.
In another second I was sitting up
straight, dumb with terror! I wanted
to shriek, but could not. I saw my

For answer, Eulalie silently held up
