How Old is Ann?

There is sometimes
merit in age and old
methods-not always.
Our fathers were con-
tent with the ox-cart
as a vehicle of trans
portation. We, their
sons, prefer the auto
mobile or the limited
express. A man or a
firm may do business
TOO long so long
that they grow an
tique in methods and
fossilized in manners.
Did you ever notice it?
The fact that a man
has done business in a
community for ten or
twenty years may be
anything but a guar
antee Of his business
ability. It may sim
ply indicate the mar
velous patience and
forbearance of the
community.

Ice Cheap In Persia,

The fact that ice is plentiful and
cheap makes living In Persia more
pleasant than 1t would otherwise be,
and the fact that 1t can be obtained at
all Is indicative Of the ingenuity Of the
people Of the country. The ground is
SO porous that water percolates
through quickly. There are therefore
few rivers or lakes from which Ice
can be obtained, and 1t Is seldom so
cold In any part Of Persia that Ice Of
a thickness suitable for packing would
form under the direct rays of the sun.
The Persian obtains his ice by making
shallow pool and building a high wall
which will protect 1t from the sun. A
thin layer Of Ice will form; this he
foods at night with water, and so
he goes on adding inch to inch until
he can cut a block Of considerable
thickness.

Mr.. Spiegelmann not only confirmed

gave him some additional details. 1t

shortly after the robbery took place.

the strong room for himself. Upon

to the problem Of the vanishing Of the

he uttered a sigh OF relief. He ina.

due reliance had been placed on the
indicator to give warning when the
bolts were shot. He fancied that he
had detected way whereby the lndi.
Gator could be so tampered with that It
would falsely declare that the door
was properly closed.
To test his theory further he had
working wooden model OF the plan OF
the strong room door made by q clever
mechanic. and the result was exactly
what he had expected 1t would be.
The inventor Of Messrs. Gammage and
Lallal's complicated treasure chamber
had overlooked one important fact,
which was that by disconnecting Ger.

although the indicator would work.
Evidently somebody had two years be-
fore discovered this simple hitch, and
utilized his knowledge to the extent
Of carrying OF the pearl. It has al.
ready been stated that at the time Of
the robbery the Indian Arm had only
one European In their employ-a
Frenchman named Eugene Vatican.
BY natural process Of deduction
Danevitch fixed on this individual as
the thief, Notwithstanding that he had
been In the employ Of the hrm for
many years and bore high character.

that there would be great difficulty In
getting rid of such valuable brooch.
and that any attempt to steal It In the
usual way would surely lead TO his de-
lection and arrest. The thief. In all
probability, was one OF gang OF Grim
inals who flew at high game. 1t had
been shown conclusively that the gem
was the Identical one which had been
stolen from the Bombay dealers two
years before. In whose possession was
1t during the interval? 1t was absolute
ly certain that 1t had not been traded

that mystery II might be possible to
trace the career Of the pearl until he
should be In position to restore 1t to

legitimate claim on the gem. She. at
least, had not acquired It dishonesty.

detective to look up the duchess once

something about the career Of her hus.

II was a delicate subject to ap.
proach. but Danevitch by degrees
drew forth the lady's confidence. and
the revelations she made did not preju'
dice him In the dukes favor. On his
marriage that gentleman was heavily
In debt. and her father paid bis debts
with the result that he contracted
fresh ones, and the indignant merchant
refused to let him have any more
money. He then began TO sell bis

lady from whom the pearl Of the

their falling to return. That night
