Russell had made no mistake. There
was but one jewel like that in the
whole world. He had made sure of
that before he bought it for his wife
ten years before. Curious it was; a
solid diamond heart, fanked by a
score Of tiny ruby ones, held In place
by the finest thread of gold that was
quite invisible at the distance of a
few feet.
Tonight she was wearing it in n
new place-as a sole ornament to the
cleaning pile of corn-gold hair that,
alone, might have made Mamie Rus
sell beauty-famous. But besides this,
there were eyes of a matchless amber
gray, a richly pale, perfect skin, and
fine, scarlet lips that were %gravely
sweet.
Russell gradually let his eyes away
from the jewel to a furtive contempla-
ton Of his wife's familiar features.
No; seven years had made slow prog
ress in ageing a woman of this indie
structible type. If anything. she had
grown more splendid in her thirties
than she had eve been in the old girl
hood days of their first love.
She was conversing spiritedly with
an ambassador, and Russell thanked
