'It was stolen from my dressing
room during the night" she replied. Il
very carelessly left it there, although
all my other jewels of value were put
away in the safe, as usual. 1t was in
small burnt wood box, not jewel

diamond collar into it, intending to
take it out again Immediately. But
the lid of the box fell down. and that
was why l forgot the collar. The box
was gone this morning."

He had no time to respond to this
suggestion in words; but l could see
that he took a different view of the
matter. If he had any inner light upon
the subject, he did not share it with
Mrs. Kelvin and me during the drive to
The Films. He remained silent, eX-
cept when directly addressed, and all
his replies were as brief as courtesy
permitted them to be.

sight of the fair queen Of his youthful
fancy could move him in the least. In

disagreeing radically with Mr.. Kelvin,

very angry with Donald if he failed.
For my own part. | had not felt so

believed to be without precedent in
this part of the country, will take
place next Tuesday, when the Misses
Gertrude and Viola Baldwin, sisters,

Baldwin. The interest in the double
wedding is increased by the fact thai

tives and friends of the quartet, and
elaborate preparations are being
made to render the affair a brilliant
one.
