SYNOPSIS.

The story opens with scream from
Dorothy March in the opera box of Mrs.
Missioner, wealthy widow. 1t is oc-
casioned when Mrs. Missioner's necklace
breaks, scattering the diamonds all over
the floor. Curtis Griswold and BruxtOn
Sands, society men in love with Mrs. Mis-
sioner gather up the gems. Griswold
steps on what is supposed to be the cele-
brated Maharanee and brushes 1t. A Hin
doc declares it was not the genuine. An
expert later pronounces all the stones
substitutes for the original. One of the
missing diamonds is found in the room
of Elinor Holcomb, confidential compan-
ion of Mrs Missioner She is arrested,
Notwithstanding Mrs. Missioner's belief
in her innocence Meantime, in an up
town mansion. two Hindoos, who are In
America to recover the Maharanee, dis
cuss the arrest. Detective Britz takes
up the case. He asks the cooperation or

| way, crawled across the intervening
space between the threshold and the
camera, whisl1ed the Millicent note
| from the board, and as silently made
his escape before Burlen had replaced
the cork in the bottle. By the time
Detective-Lieutenant Britt was en-
veloped in the fog of the steam room,
that little note was in the possession
and those worthless were studying it
SO swiftly and so profitably that ere
Britt took his cold plunge, the sage
and the Maharajahs son made a
swifter, deeper dive toward the heart
of the Missioner mystery. 1t was as
a result of what they learned from
Millicent's missive that the Swami
and the Prince went separately to the
ballroom of Doris Missioners most
fashionable friend. 1t was also in
consequence of the information CLEAN
ed from those petulant feminine lines
that the Swami found Mrs. Missioner's
society so interesting, and that the
Prince, before and after that tete-a
tete, experienced keen curiosity con
corning the doings, characteristics,
and state of mind of Curtis Griswold.
The third result of Millicent's little
letter and the Fasteners joint visit
to the Fifth Avenue ballroom, was
their dash in separate cabs to a bach
elor apartment in side street just
off Central Park, where, shortly after
their several arrivals, they were in

ters man had ordered. Remorse
spurred him so effectively that all the
hundred Impressions were ready when
Rawson sent for them. Half an hour
afterward, as many detectives were
comparing the halftone prints with
the signatures of all the Millicents in
the registers of New York's more
fashionable hotels.
Britt, as fit as a fiddle after his par
boiling, walked briskly to the marble
lobby of the Holland House and join
ed Fitch in the bar. That hotel is not
patronized by the Bright Light set,
one reason being that it sturdily re-
pels all attempts at such patronage.
Half dozen men of undoubted fash
ion were in the cafe when Britt and
Fitch draped themselves over one end
of the bar, and began absorbing long,
cold drinks in punctuation of their In
terested talk.
We're getting warm, as the young
sters say" said Britt, and he told
him of all that had happened since
their last meeting. your young lady
won't have to stay in the Tombs much
longer, I'm thinking, unless we have
stroke of bad luck. I'm puzzled on
one point, however, and that's what
wanted to see you about. What do
you know about Bruxton Sands?"

piled. "One of the best ever"

family. Bruxton has done me several
good turns"
'You think that square look of his
is not front, them" inquired the de-
tective.
NO." said the doctor, who talked
more at his ease with the detective
than he would have dreamed of doing
with any of his fashionable patients.
He's the goods"
We'll" rejoined the sleuth, I'm
glad to hear you say so. I don't mind
telling you he made me a little sus-
picious this evening. 1 must say that
for an honest man his attitude was a
little queer"
''In what way?'
We'll" said Britt, che wouldn't let
me see bit of paper that might have
helped me whole lot in this matter;
and just for a moment began to won
der whether he was as eager to have
the Missioner mystery solved as he
pretended to be-"
There's no pretense about Bruxton
Sands" said Fitch very positively.
He does want this thing Strengthened
out, and he wouldn't do anything in
any way, if he could help it, to hinder
you"
Britt then told the physician more
fully how stubborn SANDS had been
in regard to the note the millionaire
himself had taken from one of the
Hindoo burglars.
"I'll admit it seemed strange" said
Fitch. But if you go on the assump-
ton there is anything wrong behind
it, you'll lose your point. Sands is as
square as they make EN-"
"You don't think, them" asked the
detective, sit is possible his infatua-
ton for Mrs. Missioner would lead
him to do anything to queer his riv-
als?"
Most assuredly not" replied Fitch.
I'm the first place. he is not infatuat-
ed. Bruxton Sands is genuinely in
love with Doris Missioner, and he Is

Hindoos-the one Prince Kananda in

was held-was written on a letterhead

Swami an address they very much de-
sired to know. Had that address found
it's way to observation-disclosures Britt
as soon, it would have saved him
much delay, and would have spared
large part of the city's detective force
the necessity of a laboriouS search
through Manhattan's hotel registers.
Burlen was one of the most aston
ished young men in lower Manhattan
when, turning from his row Of bottles,
he found the note entrusted to him by
Britt had vanished. At first he as
sumed he had fastened 1t carelessly
and that it had fallen to the floor. A
quick hunt showed him he was wrong.
He extended his search to every part
of the room, and it was not until he
had disturbed the dust of ages that
he realized the scrap of paper actually
was gone. His sensations following
that realization were not of the pleas

tive's earnestness the note was of ex-
ceptional Importance. 1t solaced him
only in part to find on taking the plate

through a developing process that the

than he. He held in his hand a perfect
duplicate of the letter. That would
not satisfy Britt, of course, but 1t was
better than it would have been if the
note had disappeared before the photo
graphing was complete. Burlen hast

DOES SURELY BREAK A COLD.
Also Ends all Misery from the Grippe
In Just a Few Hours.

There is not one grain of quinine
in Pape's Cold Compound, which
when taken every two hours, until
three consecutive doses are taken,
will surely end the grippe and break
up the most severe cold, either in
the head, chest, back, stomach or
limbs.
1t promptly relieves the most mis-
cradle neuralgia pains, headache,
dullness, head and nose stuffed up,
feverishness, sneezing, sore throat,

Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit of three years research at a
cost of more than fifty thousand dol
lars and contains no Quinine, which
we have conclusively demonstrated
is not effective in the treatment of
colds or grippe.
Take this harmless Compound as

there is no other medicine made any

INTERESTING ADDRESS
BY Miss White Of Middebury at
FortnIehtly Saturday Afternoon

Miss Rhoda N. White, dean of the
women's college of Middlebury gave
an interesting and enlightening talk
on Rural Social Problems and Pro
gress" at the Fortnightly Saturday
The afternoon was in charge of the
social science committee, Mrs. War
rem L. Putnam, chairman, who intro
duced Miss White to her hearers
with a few well chosen remarks.
AS student of sociology in wes-
tern university and head OF the de-
partment for women in one of Yer
mont's most progressive colleges,
Miss White showed her broad know
ledge of the subject and handled II
in a most interesting manner. Her
aim she said was to cite a few of the
problems encountered In the rural
communities of Vermont and to show
a means of solving them. The first
part of the talk was taken up with
statistics showing the comparative
gains in the population of the cities
and small towns not only of this
state but of the country as a whole.
Miss White spoke Of the cityward
rush which she said did not always
take the most capable and brilliant
from the country towns but almost
as many of the incapable. One rem.
edy for this, to improve the opportu.
mites for advancement offered, in the
suburban districts. Although this
lure of the city is to be deplored II
is not as discouraging as 1t has been
depicted and is simply due to de
sire for more life.
Two OF the many problems to b.
solved in the rural community are
education and religion. Miss Whit,
spoke of the country school house
its unattractiveness, the opportuni
ties for betterment along sanitary
hygienic and social lines and advo
Gated change OF curriculum in al
