COUNTRY TRADE AND
THE PARCELS POST.
Saturday Evening Post.

A country merchant in New Eng
land writes US:
"My experience in competing with
mail-order houses leads me to think
a parcels-post system would be bene.
fit to ME rather than an injury. Quite
often, II one of my customers could
buy from a mail-order house some
small article that struck his fancy
and have the article delivered cheaply
by post, that would be the extent OF
his mail-order purchase. But he does
not want to pay high express charges
On the article, so he and his neigh.
bors will pore over the catalogue
and pick out enough goods to make
freight shipment. The result Is that
the mail order-house instead Of sell.
ing five pounds, sells a hundred
pounds or more"
How many other country merchants
would find the same condition among
their customers with respect to mail
order business? Isn't there, in fact,
continual drumming up of trade for
mail-orier houses by purchasers who
wish their neighbors to join them, in
by freight and avoid high express
Charges! % IdT d we KNOW, MAN
order houses have never taken any
particular interest in the parcels-post
Is this because they are satisfied with
scheme that induces purchasers tc
buy in bulk? This phase merits con
sideration.
The parcels post, limited to rura,
delivery routes as recommended by
the President, would certainly benefit
the country merchant. We doubt tina,
an extension of the system would
really injure him.-Saturday Evening

drops every half-hour for four hours.
Then take one-half to one teaspoonful

"Your maid Is more cautious" he
said, his smile softening slightly, ''or.
1t may be. your jeweler has made

Mrs. Missioner did not faint. She
only clutched the soft hand of little
Miss March so tightly that the de-
butante with difficulty suppressed a
scream. This time there was silence
in the Missioner box, for Griswold,
even as he began to stammer an apol-
ogy for his awkwardness, let the
words die on his lips as he saw the
cruel pallor of the widows face. The
silence of Sands was grim, that OF
the Oriental suavely self-effecing.

CHAPTER II.
The Man Of Action.

The Man OF Action.
The conference that followed In the
quiet OF Mrs. Missioner's library
threw no light on the mystery of the
Maharanee's disappearance. Mrs.
Missioner was not of the fainting
type, and when she ~tered her Fifth
Avenue home, followed by Dorothy,
Sands, and Griswold, she went
straight to the room in which she
kept her Jewels.
Mrs. Missioner herself switched on
the lights to their full radiance. She
fastened across the room, her opera
cloak slipping from her white shout
ders, and paused In front OF the safe.
"You don't expect to find your dia-
mond there?" inquired Griswold amaz.

Sands, absentiy counting the lesser
Jewels, did not see the massive safe
door swing open. His disciplined mind
was working slowly, steadily. Doro-
thy, her small face cameo clear in the
intense light of the mercury, watched
the shining gems as the millionaire's
strong fingers fiicked them delicately
from the silken bag to the table.
Plainly she, too, was cropping for a
clew. Griswold alone, therefore, saw
the widows gloved hand tremble as,
swiftly, she turned smaller knob
controlling the combination of the
compartment in which she kept her
Jewels. His eyes still upon her, he
felt for cigarette.
The match fell from his fingers as
the inner door opened to his search
ing glance. Lances Of many-colored
light slashed the comparative gloom
of the compartment as Mrs. Missioner
brought forth tray after tray from the
jewel vault. The steel box in the CEN

Miss March gasped again as the wild

The widows guests saw what few
persons other than Mrs. Missioner had
seen-all the Missioner jewels at once.
The gems were the collection Of q
lifetime. Missioner, In the intervals
of amassing millions, had devoted
himself to gathering them from the
earth's four corners.
"You have an inventory. Of course%

table and strolled over to stare at the
rubies and emeralds, the sapphires
and tourmalines and amethysts, above
all at the unrivaled group OF diamonds
graded from a flrefy's sparkle to the
gloryburst Of radium.
Mrs. Missioner drew from a shelf
