"I rather think that's a matter
for the magistrate to decide" said
Mr.. Jones, loftily.
And SO poor Jessie was taken in
charge of the policeman, like any
wretched culprit Of the street.
She pleaded "Not guilty." but
of what use was her simple plea?
The evidence was strong, and she
was committed for trial, and order
ed to prison in default of bail.
And so the case was dismissed, to
make room for the trial of a drunk
en- brute, who was accused of
pounding his much-enduring wife
into a jelly. -

Jessie. "Oh, why-why can't /
die, before this disgrace comes on
my poor mother!"
Mr.. Jones returned, well satisfied,
to his shop, in front of which stood
the Million carriage, with its olive
green hammer cloth and gilded
coat-of-arms. He hurried in. Miss
Million sat in front of the counter.
"0h, here is Mr.. Jones himselfl'
said Miss Million, in that high
pitch of self-asserting voice of hers.
"The funniest thing, Mr.. Jones.
Positively, l almost expected to be
arrested-hal ha! hal When l
reached home my maid found this
hanging to my sleeve"
And she held up the amethyst
cross.
Mr.. Jones, and Ferguson, the
shopman, stared at each other
guiltily. The purple flush Of the
amethyst seemed to glare at them
like reproachful eyes.
:" We we're too hasty," said Mr.
Ferguson.
"But, you know, appearances
were all against her." said Jones.
The fortunate temperance Of
the missing jewel, of course, re-
leased poor Jessie from "durancC
vile" within the hour.
But I've lost my place as nur
sery-governess at Mrs. Horn

frightened. 81 shall have Ii

To her it seemed like a mine

whose sense Of justicewas painful
