that of the ordinary household strong
box There we're several account
books. ledgers and the like, together
with some packages of docketed bills,

The cash box combination offered
less difficu.ty than had the outer dial.

Then, brazenly lifting out the inner
framework bodily, he thrust a FUN

leasing the panel at the back. II dis

and the splash Of light from the bulls

humbly in the secret compartment; a
fatlittle canvas bag. considerably soiled
from much handling. such as is used
by banks for coin, sturdy, matter-of'
fact, everyday sort Of canvas bag,
with nothing about it of hauteur, no
air OF self-importance or ostentation,
TO betray the fact that il was the re-
ceptacle Of a small fortune.

"How did you guess?" she breathed.
He took thought and breath. both

"BTibed the head clerk of the safe

Rising. he passed over to the center
table, the girl following. STEADY with
the light" he whispered; and loosed
the string around the mouth OF the
bag. pouring its contents, a glistening,
priceless. flaming. iridiscent treasure

"Ohi" said a small voice at his side.
And again and again: "Oh, Oh! OH"
Maitland himself was moved by the
wonder of Il. The Jewels seemed 10

coruscant glamour. rainbowlike. His
breath came hot and fast as he gazed
