Don't excite yourself. dear. You

death that shocked you. Says here
rather a ripping story-such
trumpery the papers get up.
The Ricci necklace was later
discovered, after Magdala RiccPs
deathT To keep the affair quiet.
BonEiceti had kept II hidden for
years. He was afraid to sell 1t, or
otherwise evidence its existence.
One day in touring the West, he
met lady whose great beauty en-
tranced him. She was so like the
little Italian maid-his first love.
He gave the ruby necklace to her.
not telling her Of its value. Years
later her daughter. Jeanne Dare,
now Mrs. Victor ~Barstowe, upon
discovering the history Of the
rubies insisted upon returning them
20 Bonnicetti. The great italian
was so impressed at the girls hon
esty and beauty, and that same re-
semblance. that he bequeathed nts
estate to her"
The climax of the story stated
that only a few days before the
same, Mrs. Barstowe had inherited
large sum from railroad property.
The details of this were obtained
from Selby North, a clubman who
claims to be an intimate friend OF
the Barstowes."
Don't read any more" Jeanne
begged. For a long time she lay
quiet thinking and thinking and
