works within were so loose that they rattled. The friend brought out a neat little silver watch and after some han tering the two men exchanged watches. I knew that Kahn's watch was not silver and his friend had given him a. very good silver watch in exchange for it. Kahn left for Montreal the next Gay and I stayed at his hotel in New York.
 "The more l thought about the watch trade the more suspicious was. When Kahn returned to the New York hotel a week later I was prepared for him. He greeted me cheerfully and in the evening hlo friend came tC call on him. Again I stuck close to Kahn. Finally his friend said:
 "'Got any more tullseye watches to swap?'
 "'YeJ.' said Kahn. I've got another big fellow that I picked up in Montreal and he pulled out a watch that my ex- perlenced eye told me was the same one he had swapped before. l expected something of this sort. In fact if it had not occurred had made fool of my self
 After the usual hantering on trade another exchange of watches was made and suggested that we go into the bar and nave drink on 1t. No sooner was the drink served than two of our spe- cial men, who had been leaning against

"If l had not served an apprentice ship with a jeweler." said man who was once connected with the govern ment's secret service and now manages his own detective burea;,, II probably would have missed wGat l consider was the beot stroke of business I ever did. It only goes to prove the old saying that there Is no such thing as useless knowledge, ,
 'I had been In the secret service about two yearS- grubbing on unlmpor- tant jobs because I was only youngs- ter. when 1t was. dia,overed that large quantities of diamonds were being smuggled into the country. The rep utable diamond dealers in New York gave the first information. That was in the fall of 1879. Some of the bs st de- tectives in the businesS had been as- signed to this job and it wa9 well 'un- derStood that the man who succeeded In running 1t down would find his repu- tation made. In the middle of Novem- Der the chief of our department sent for me and said:

From my inves- tigations I have reached the conclusion that the stones are brought into this country by way of Canada. I want you to go up to Rouse's Point on Lake Champlain and see If you can get any clue to this business there. Don't let even the custom house officers in that country know what you are. and draw on me for expenses
 That struck me as being a pretty blind sort of commission. but I was young and full O; confidence in myself l was thin as q rail in thooe days, and l got together hunters outfit and ar rived at Rouse's Point after a week in the Adirondacks.
 ''In those days the through trains from Montreal to New York all stopped for breakfast or dinner at Rouses Point. Having nothing to do I made the station my lounging place. l cul- tlvated the acquaintance of the news boys on the train and l kept clooe tap on all the passengers My month heightened into two and at the end of taat time I telegraphed my chief that l had suspicion and to verify it I was going to Montreal.
 "I wanted to learn more of a certain Julius Kahn. He made regular trips betwten Montreal and New York os- tensibly as an agent for fire insurance company. He was one of those boist- erous. hail-fellow sort of chaps who knew all of the trainmen by name. He tipped Eberally I had made some sec ond hand inquiries about his insurance business with the result that doubted his connection with any insurance com, pany. l learned that he stayed, when in Montreal. in quiet little third-rate hotel on Notre Dame street. The be-. hotels in Canada in those days were rone tco good and that a man of Kahn's generous tastes should stay in such hotel was another suspicious cir eumstance.

From the states without any explana- ton are at once classed with the men for whcm the law has punishment in store. fostered this idea about my self and two days after I wao estab- lished in this hotel 1t was assumed by the otaer patrons of the place that was fugitive from the stater. I had been there nearly a week when Kahn arrived, He was greeted as an old friend by the landlord and in due course of time was introduced to him.
 Kahn sized me up in accordance with the landlords suspicious and we became very friendly. I discovered that he seldom left the hotel and that he had no definite date for returning to New York, One evening as We were smoking together the landlord came over to US and told Kahn that some friends of his were waiting for him in his room. Kahn left me and the next day I learned that he had gone to New York.
 Acting hy my instructions one of the men in the New York office shadowed Kahn on his arrival and until he left town, Kahn stayed at an old hotel that stood near what is now the New York end of the Brooklyn bridge. None Of the men who via.ted him was iden- tifed with the sellers of cheap dia- monds and if my suspicious were cor rect knew that I had clever man to deal with.
 Kahn came back to the Notre Dame street hotel a week later. The next time he went to New York I was on the train with him and was as indignant as he when customs officers came aboard as we crossed the line and made very thorough search of the baggage and clothes of every passenger.
 Don't kick said Kahn to me, 1t won't do any good. Let them go through you. If you make fuss they may identify you"
 This rcriark, of course. referred to his suspicion that l was fugitive from JuSttce. l watched Kahn. examination closely ari when it ended. without the finding of any dutlable goods in his pos session. l concluded that had made a mistake. Kahn might be engaged in some sort of crooked business, but it was not smuggling diamonds
 After the examination we went into the smoker. Kahn was in high good humor. He twitte6 me on my nervous ness and told me to put up bold front and If l got into difficulties to let him know. He advised me to stay at his hotel l accepted his suggestion for we were now on friendly terms. We reached Now York early in the morning and an hour after our arrival a man came into the dining room where we were at breakfast and greeted Kahn ao an old friend.
 Well how's business?' he asked
 I'm not complaining said Kahn. My commissions are good
 Tt was evident from the subsequent conversation that Kahns' friend wanted to get rid of me, but I stuck like a brother. Finally he caid to Kahn.
 Got watch to swap?'
 Yes, said Kahn: an old fashioned bullseye with about half a pound of silver in the case and no works to speak of
 Let's see it, said the friend.
 Kahn pulled out a watch Of a pat tern that I knew from my experience in jewelry store was very rare. It was an unusually Eig watch and the

 Whats the charge?' asked Kahn.
 Smuggling, said l, and turning to Kahn's friend I said; T will trouble you for that bullseye watch. It has served in this business long enough?'
 They saw that the game was up. There were no works in the watch and the ca3e was filled with as fine col lection of diamonds as ever you saw. Kahn turned states evidence and "ev- eral small jewellers went out of busi- ness. My reputation was made. Had not my service in a jewelry shop trained my eye for watches I would never have discovered the fraud. It's the little things that count in my busi- neuJ."-New York Sun.

The old proverb; rTo be at peace prepare for war" is the secret of the larger part of life's successes, whether of nations or individuals.
 The difference between the healthy, happy mother who has healthy children to nurse and nourish, and the weak, nervous mother, with weakling child, is mostly difference of preparation.
 The great preparative for motherhood is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. l. tranquilizes the nerves, encourages the appetite and induces refreshing sleep. It gives the mother strength to give her child. It inparts elasticity and strength to the organs of maternity so that the baby's advent is practically painless.
 "I take pleasure in writing you to let you know about your Favorite Prescription says Mir F. F., Fricke, of Petersburg, Menard Co.,, III. Box 567. My wife had been sick nearly all her life, and after trying everything I could think of made mp my mind to try Favoritc Prescription. l sent to Chicago and got sir bottles. which my wife took, a tablespoonful three times day, until the baby came She felt better after taking the first bottle and wher baby was born he weighed nine and hall pounds. To day he is six months old and weighs twenty-two pounds He is as good q child as any one could wish. The doctor say3 he Is as healthy as any baby could be- and also the doctor says your Favorite Prescription was the cause of such n healthy baby. I felt I owed you this much for the good you did my wife and myself hope you will mention this to others who may be in need of such help, and you may refer them to me, as l would be glad to tell of the good of such valuable medicine"
