THE LOST JEWELS

James called to Bertha. Come
Bertha, let's go to the lake and
skate. The ice is dandy"
"All right" said Bertha. As they
were walking along, James said:
Have you heard about the lost
jewels?" They are called miss
Engres lost Jewels"
why no." said Bertha. "Tell
me all about It."
We'll" said James, "Old Uncle
Miller was at our house last night.
He told us some stories and he told
about the lost jewels, and he said
people were offering five hundred
dollars $4,000 to any one who
could find the jewels. You see Miss
Engle never married. She loved
Jewels more than any other thing.
She had an ivory box full Of jewels.
"Her father, a rich man owned a
large factory. There was big
cave near the factory that he kept
his boxes and other things In. Aft.
err Miss Engle's death, the jewels
could not be found. That's all I
know" finished James.
Have you told any one else
about it?" asked Bertha.
Yes, / told Ralph York" Then
they walked in silence till they
reached the lake. They had forgot
ten about the lost jewels till big
boy, Basel Bales, ran up and cried
Ralph York is lost" he has not
been home since morning, his
mother Is awful worried. She told
me to tell you boys and girls to see
il you could find him.
well, Wen try" said James, and ,
he called the others and told them !
Of the lost boy, Ralph.
Then James began to think about
the lost jewels and the five hundred
dollars reward, and wondered If
Ralph was hunting the. Jewels.
AS the boys and girls were going
along the lake, they met Pat Nor
gan, and asked them If he had seen
Ralph that morning. He said he
saw him go In the Engles' cave. So
the boys and girls went to the cave.
The cave was dark, so the boys
used their flashlights Finally they
came to a sign Danger ahead"
But the boys and girls went on till
thew came to place where the
roof was caved in. But they scram-
bled over the rocks and earth and
went on. Then they came to some
one kneeling. James flashed his
light on the kneeling figure. It
was Ralnh! When they saw what
he was digging I'D thew we're aston
ished. 1t was the box Miss Engle's
Jewels were in After thew had
helped Ralph get the jewels out,
they asked, "How did you know the
jewels were IN this cave?"
well" said Ralph, "as I was
walking near here yesterday. l
asked some BOYS about this cave.
They told me it was the Engfe's
cave. so when you told me about
the lost jewels, I thought Of this
place"
"Why never thought OF the
cave" said James. ....
ooh" cried Bertha. "Jnst think.

lars reward. and we can have the

A Wolf AVENGER

1t was in the latter part OF jan
uary, bitterly cold, when Bill Cutter
with his four hunting dogs was in
the woods hunting. The dogs had
caught their prey, which was
wolf. Each had hold Of a leg pull
ing the opposite direction OF the
other. They were all bowling at
Bill to shoot the wolf, though 1t
did them very little good for Bill
lad something fixed on his brain
which had been there for some
time. Bill did not seem to pay
much attention to the dogs but
finally put his thoughts together
enough to shoot the wolf and go
on at what he had started, which
you will find if you will read on.
Bill was twenty-one years old
He had a girl friend, Nellie Brown,
he loved dearly, and he had once
asked her to marry him but she
refused as she did not love him.
About six months later she married
boy named Jimmy Casters. This
disappointed Bill very much and he
was really very angry with Nellie.
Casters lived in a little cottage
on country road which ran close
by the woods in which Bill was
hunting.
Casters lived very happy in their
little cottage until one day tthe
same day that Bill was in the forest
hunting), when Jimmy had gone
to the forest to cut wood, and Mel
lie was left alone to do what she
pleased She beanie lonesome and
went into the other room to get
stocking to darn, humming a little
tune as she went, when all Of a
sudden she heard the window raise
slowly and Bill Cutter crawled
slowly through the window. Bill
had seen Jim in the forest and
thought that now would be the
best chance to do what he so long
ed to do.
Nellie ceased her humming and
walked out into the dining room
to see who it was.
Bill rushed at her with his hunt
ing knife wide open.
Nov, Nellie Brown. See this
knife; I'm going to make use of it
pretty quick. You turned me down
and went and married that old Jim
Caster. You're not going to be
here very long to love anybody,
I'm going to kill you and lay you
on the fire place and then I'll get
behind the door and pounce ON
Jim and treat him the same way"
In the meantime wolf had fol-
lowed Bill and was crawling
through the window. Nellie saw it
but said nothing. The wolf slipped
up behind Bill and quietly pounced
on him, this causing him to roll
over on the hand in which he held
the knife and tho knife ran into
his side and instantly killed him.
Nellie quickly jumped up and got
the revolver on the dresser and
shot the wolf. As Nellie went over
to close the window she heard Jim
whistling outside. Jim came in and
Nellie could not say q word, but
as soon as Jim stepped inside the
dining room he guessed what had
happened. Jim notified Bills par
ents and they came over after him,
and that was the last that Nellie
and Jim ever saw Of Bill.

with expensive tastes and social as

suggestion of a Mrs. Van Ruyper to
help her sail into society. To do

When the misdeed is discovered,
the furious father tells his son he

Nancy is denounced as the cause Of
his sons ruin, and as an alternative
to the Jail route, she is asked to
show her love by leaving Dick for

with her decision, and the denounce-
