CHAPTER III

The next morning Wimburn woke
from dreams of bliss to the realization
that his hotel bill would require all of
his funds except enough for the por-
ter's tip and few odd dollars.
He could not buy Daphne an engage
ment ring with a few odd dollars, and
he was afraid to leave her without the
brand OF possession on her finger.
But how was he to come at the nee
essary sum2 He could not decently
ask the firm he was dealing with to
lend him money. He might have asked
1t to cash a check on his bank. but
his account was at the irredncihle min
imum.
After an hour or two of meditation
he determined to beard jeweler in
his lair and try to coax him into the
extension of credit.
He loitered In front Of several win
dows, staring at the glittering pebbles
on the velvet beaches till he found a
tiny gem that he thought might feebly
represent his exquisite alteration. He
went in and asked the price. An ca.
ger salesman peered at the very small

He clung to the counter for support
and in a husky tone asked for the
credit man. He was escorted to q
barred window where a very sane old
person gazed out at people insane
enough to buy jewelry. Mr.. Gassett
had a look of hospitality toward cash
and Of shyness toward credit.
Wimburn hemmed and blushad and
swallowed hard. With the p!auslbility

There are 100000 people in India
engaged In the production Of silk. Cat
erpillars and moths of the mulberry
silk industry Of India are entirely do
mesticated creatures. The Indians
collect the cocoons spun by caterpil-
lars and allow them to hatch, an ex-

until they lay eggs and when the cater
pillars are large enough they are placed
on trees to feed. When a tree
is stripped piece Of cloth is hung
from n limb and the caterpillars crawl
onto 1t and are moved to another tree.
Tasar or tussor silk comes from
China and Japan. Muga silk is prod
uct of Assam. Fri silk comes from
caterpillars which feed on the castor
oil plant. 1t is of great value in In
dia. because 1t is the only silk that
can be spun from cocoons without kill
ing the insects in the cocoons and is
therefore the only silk that can be
