critical of man who had done so

Neither have you worked out an
explanation of the fact that 1t was q

II don't quite understand why the

added Fitch tentatively.
Britz smiled.
Mere Details" Britz replied. First,
Griswold did not smuggle the dia-
mond into Miss Holcomb's room.
That little trick was pulled off by
Ali. He was the only one who could
have done 1t, and his reason for want
ing to throw suspicion on the young
woman Is plain. He was in the house
to get the necklace and he also want
ed to make a sure getaway. There

Manning nodded reluctantly, Fitch
approvingly.
LAS for old Martins possession OF

ant, Il see no explanation about that
except that Griswold handed 1t to
him. There seems to be streak OF
malicious mischief in our club friend
AS side exploit in pulling off big
crime, he would enjoy making trouble
for another-especially for a man he
had reason TO fear as a rival, which
was the case with Sands. It may be
he even hoped to cast suspicion per
manently on the millionaire, though
that seems hardly possible. Ever
when Sands acted so mysteriously In
regard to that letter he recovered
from the Hindoo burglar he did no

diamonds, the strongest suspicion
had was that he might be shielding
the thief, and that didn't last long.

Crazy. is he?" asked Manning
Mad as they make EN-" Britt re-
piled, but, as the doctor says, harm
less. He couldn't have made so good
an imitation had he not believed he
was manufacturing a genuine stone.
That's his delusion. you understand
thinks he's making diamonds"
We'll" said the Chief after another
pause. How did Griswold turn the
trick when it came to a showdown"
A faint smile flickered an instant
about Births lips, then disappeared.
''He never got chance to turn the
trick" the detective replied. For
more than year now, he's been cast
ing covetous eyes on the same paste
stones he had manufactured"
BY a tremendous effort Fitch sue
ceeded in subduing his excitement,
and locking his hands behind his
head, he waited with what patience
he could for the rest of the detec-
tive's story Manning seemed to turn
to ice.
"Griswold has been in bad financial
ly for over two years." Britt contin-
ued. Hes been doing stunts with the
books of the Iroquois Trust company
At my request, the directors have had
experts on the books for a couple of
weeks, and they've got as pretty a
case against Mr.. Griswold as ever
you saw. He wanted that necklace in
order to get enough money to square
his accounts.
Nov comes the strangest part of
the case" The detective smiled as
he made ready to fire the verbal
bomb. "The most surprised man in
the world, on the night that Mrs. Mis-.

mere paste, was Curtis Griswold."

There is a rule Of hospitality that
demands loyalty on the part Of the
hostess to any guest whom she may
have within her gates. She may re-
greet having extended hospitality to
this guest and may never renew the
invitation, but so long as the relation
of guest and hostess exists the great
est loyalty and courtesy must be pre-
served. So when one of your guests
makes a great blunder swallow your
amusement and your pride and make
the least Of it

tactful Washington hostess whose

some one present, the unkindest thing
to do Is to allow a pause to follow. 1t

There is one sort Of social break
that takes a great deal of courage to
meet in the tactful tvomanly manner,
and that is the break when some one
tells you something disagreeable she
has heard about you. Besides the
pain that such information cannot help
but cause, there is always an element
of curiosity that makes you yearn to
hear all. But put down this curiosity;
show the greatest indifference about
any sort Of SANDER that may be
brought to your ears.
"Oh, please don't tell me. I like to

THE DREAMERs.

Dreamer! You sweep the skies
With valorous eyes
TO read the portent Of the stars un'
bornI
On the frail Icarian wing,
Withdrawing thru the night,
Hopeful of other light
Than day can bring;-
You lose the glory of our earthly
morni
Dreameri The long-loved goal
OF your impatient soul
Lies in no fame wrought vision Of new
creed,
Your lowered fantasies,
Builde6 on shifting sand,
Guarded with loyal hand,
And prayerful ecstasies.
Are but the smoky vapors of our need.
Dreamerl Our skyward drift
Is not so swift
Az dreams that have no dreary leagues
to 60.
Yet still with even tread
We climb the sunlit peak,
Knowing the height we seek
Is sacred to our dead,
Whose mortal shards lie marshaled far
below.
Not by law-riven gives,
But in triumphant lives
Your surging dream shall win the up
land roadi
Know you since time began
The one transcendent Lord
OF all our earth born horde
Planned from the soul of man?
Life is not bondage to a golden goad!
Sprung from your bitter tears
Against the hungry years
The sword-blade of your anger leaps
full drawn.
Smite not insensate things!
Not over broken stone,
But thru swift love alone
Shall your new hope find wingsl
Up, Dreamer! Wake! For life! For

AT THE COUNTRY
CLUB YESTERDAY.

1t was soon after noon yesterday,
when the great dripping trees and the
waters of the grey-gre bay and the
dank grasses at the Country club be-
gan to shudder again in unison with
the fierce restlessness Of warning
Nature, while the great mist gods rose
slowly and angrily over a distant jut
Of rain soaked sand.
Angry, flashing, foaming waves were
soon washing the beach. creeping like
some living thing, onto the safe habita-
ton Of man, only to be beaten back
again into its own element.
Then the storm broke.
You could hear the trees groan In
the agony of the moment, and you
could hear the sobbing of many winds.
You could feel the throbbing pulse
Of Nature, passion tossed, in the beat
ing Of the waves, for you were very,
very near to Nature yourself yester-
day, when you met her intimately as
you always do at the Country club.
and when you came up her in the real
throes of her passion and her fury.
Inside, where peace and rainy day
gloom prevailed, you could hear 1t all,
feel 1t all, see 1t all-for you were very,
very near indeed to Nature, yesterday,
at the pretty, smiling, rain washed
club house by the sea-

MEETING
SOCIAL BREAKS.

Do you know how to meet the social
break-how to pass 1t off lightly or ig-
more 1t If 1t is made Intentionally, or
how to cover 1t or even to take it upon
yourself If 1t is made blindly?
What would you do when an obliging
but awkward young man drops a glass
OF sherbet on the front panel of your
best bib and tucker, or a misguided &C
quatntance comes to an afternoon
function in evening Dress or when one
OF your guests makes scratching re-
marks about a certain religion to
which you know another one Of your
guests is a strict adherent, or when a
friend breaks a highly priced vase or
topples over the lighted dinner candles
on your most expensive damask
To be sure, every woman who makes
pretense at good manners knows in
theory what to do on these and similar
trying occasions. but If you want to be
sure to be able to meet the emergency
when II comes, sit down right now and
make up your mind what you would
