took to be an imitation diamond He

In remarkable circumstances q
pearl necklace worth $4,000. which
was stolen a few days ago from the
Marquise de L.. has been recovered.
The marquise. who was staying at q
Paris hotel. had ordered some shoes.
These were brought by a messenger
boy. who took the opportunity Of
pocketing the necklace.
On arriving home the lads mother
fhund the jewels in his pocket. He
told her he had bought the necklace
and was soundly scolded for spending
the money on such rubbish. She took
the row OF pearls. and gave 1t to her
little daughter. who went to school
with 1t round her neck. II thought
the whole thing was not worth ten
CENTS" said the little girls mother to
the magistrate when the lad had been
arrested. As the necklace was too
large for the girl. her mother took
some of the pearls out. which she put
in her work-basket amongst buttons.
needles and threads.
All the pearls were found and
handed to the marquise, who was SO
much amused at the adventures of the
recovered necklace that she withdrew
the complaint. with the result that

next day these chickens we're nowhere
