Two Ring Stories.

Perhaps this true ''ring story" may
interest. your readers. Many years
ago my brother-in-law, a clergyman,
was travelling in Switzerland with his
mother and wife. They went to the
"Beau Rivage" hotel at Lausanne,
and there his mother died. She had
given him a valuable diamond ring,
which, on leaving, he found had been
stolen from his bedroom. He sus-
pected the waiter and wrote on an
empty powder box, "Powder for stolen
rings" The waiter, feeling himself
charged with theft, prosecuted him,
and he was fined 1925. Several years
afterward, when my sister, who knew
the ring we'll, was ill in bed at their
rectory-house,' two detectives called at
8 o'clock in the morning and insisted
on being shown up into her bedroom.
They produced the identical ring,
which, of course, she claimed and re-
ceived for her husband. It had been
found on the person of the medical at
tendant, who, with a oma in his
company, had committed suicide, and
thus was, in this remarkable name
recovered. Here is another true ring
story known to me: A niece of mine
had been holding a class of girls. One
of them took an omnibus and on leav-
ing it found that her purse had been
stolen. On reaching home she turned
out her pockets, and at the bottom of

have escaped into her pocket. A good
exchange for a purse which, I believe
contained only a few pence.-London
