She was wondrously deceitful but, also, won
drously lovely. And as gallant he had
accustomed himself to address Loveliness, no
matter how deceitful. fittingly
Just for the moment, he said smoothly,
''Madame's allure robs me of speech"
She acknowledged that with graceful little
bow. "Me1ci l was afraid that, perhaps,
Monsieur had tired of our - well. friendship"
Fervently, Jules made perish-the- thought
motions. They were false, as false as Madame
herself But he deemed them necessary. For
a most intriguing idea had entered his head
Far from tiring," he contrived to look
wistful, Il seek proper words. In which to
ask Madame to dine tonight At the Cafe
Pe1T0Quet."
MoMENrARLY free of Madame Daceaux
Jules repaired to the Hotel Beauclaire, a ques-
tionable hostelry in a questionable section of
Paris. There resided Etienne Duval, his
sometime friend and protege.
Sometime" thought Jules, was right. A
fine friend Etienne had proved. Etienne had
sat long at the feet of Jules. the master,
absorbing the intricacies of successful jewel
thievery. But, having absorbed them, he had
grown too big for his breeches
A little hotly now, Jules reviewed his score
against Etienne. The bracelet of Mrs. Faunce,
silly wife of an American steel king. The
Countess of Middlemar's emeralds. Rubies
of a certain Mrs. O'Hara. All plucked cleverly
from under the very nose of Jules Garon, even
though Etenne well knew that his mentor
was interested in these cases.
But, taken to task, Etienne had merely
laughed. The laughter had burned Jules to
the marrow. Migrate, upstart. eOchon! But,
fortunately. Jules had held his tongue Long

excellent eyesight and
superior judgment, he might have fallen head
long into the trap. The trap. of course, had
been baited with this beautiful, if feather
witted. brunette and her string of priceless
pearls And the setter of the trap? Ha! 1t
was clear now. None other than fat Marcel
Ribot, of the St1yeK Gtstrale.
Across the sidewalk cafe table Jules regarded
Madame Dareaux. the largest though least
valuable portion of the bait Madame, looking
innocent and winsome, toyed with her aperitif.
And Jules nodded. Really, she was splendid
actress. Conversationally frothy, seemingly
cotton puff minded, she had almost taken him
in. He, Jules Garon, a man of the world,
boulevardier, and Frances most eminent
jewel thief Indeed, he might well have engi-
neered the COUP had that porcine fool from
the S11eX exercised patience
bur M. Ribot who for years, it was well
known, had left his office only under dire
necessity (being too fat and indolent) had
obviously grown nervous with catch like
jules Garon in prospect. He had, as the Grass
Americans said, got "ants in his pants" ..
and made the mistake of allowing himself to
be seen in the region of his own mobile snare.
Several times since attracted by her lus-
trous pearls Jules had scraped acquaintance
with the most-willing Madame Daueaux in
hotel lobby. he had observed the phenomenon
of Ribot, shutting his avoirdupois through
Paris. He had observed it first with wonder,
then with dawning intelligence; M. Ribot
ambulating. instead of squatting like an over
fed slug at the headquarters of the gen.
darmerie. PGrbleM! 1t could mean only one

thing - and that was enough to give wise
man pause
Jules had paused. And now his quick eye
once more discerned Ribot, bumbling along
the opposite side of the street. All sud-
denly became clear. Rbot was dogging the
whereabouts of Jules Garon - and Madame
DaIeau Why?
Because. indubitably, the pompous idiot
wished to be present when Jules fell into the
police net. He would then take personal credit
for landing such glittering prize.
As for Madame she was not, as she repre-
sented herself, the young relict of wealthy
Provencal vineyard owner. Neither did she
sojourn in Paris for holiday. The cleaning
rope of pearls did not belong to her. 1t had
been provided by Ribot, as a lure for Jules.
The fascinating Madame was, naturally, in
SareK employ. And, doubtless, they were
constantly being shadowed by SdreN myrmi-
dons. Sometime during the shadowing the
myrmidons hoped Jules would make gesture
toward the pearls. Then, at scream from
Madame, they proposed to pounce. And from
somewhere in the convenient offing would
hustle the portly Ribot, to be in at the kill.
All very neat. But Jules had no intention
of being duped by this elephantine arrange
ment. A thousand pities, to be sure, that he
must forget the lavish pearls The proceeds
from the pearls would have enabled him to
strut the boulevards, exquisitely and idly, in
definitely But - he sighed. 1t was not to be.
Wisdom forbade.
A LOW musical voice recalled him to his
present locale. Monsieur is very quiet"
Jules glanced up. She was slanting her
ravishing eyes; lips like scarlet flowers formed
a vague pout Jules pulled himself together.

sighted as usual, he had envisaged the day
when he himself might be the means of giving
Etienne his lesson.
Now Eienne would learn that lesson. After
the Sarex's trap had closed =. not upon
Jules Garon but upon nearly as good haul,
from the Saretx's angle For, indeed. Etienne
had turned out to be very fair jewel thief.
Which, of course, resulted from the excellent
tutelage of Jules Caron. But, liens! He had
no time for these fancies now He entered the
Beauclaire.
To Etienne, an alert-eyed young gentleman,
Jules was plausibility itself. He had just re-
ceived word that his revered mother in
Cherbowg was gravely i'll. He must leave at
once. There was, however, this appointment
for tonight. In colorful hyperbole he described
the charms of Madame DaIeaux. The bare
idea of foregoing an engagement with this
enchanting creature desolated him. But filial
duty came first.
AS FOR simply cancelling the appointment -
not to be thought of. Because the lady, lately
bereaved, vacationed here attempting to ale
viate her sorrow and each of her few evenings
was important to her. Therefore. by Etienne,
he proposed to send an explanatory note and
recommend Etienne as an escort Now then,
what had Etienne to say?
Etienne said that the prospect sounded
delightful He said that he adored beautiful
women and had reason to trust Jules judg-
ment regarding same. But" he added fiat
teringiy. Il cannot hope to duplicate the -er,
technique of my teacher"
Certainly not, head OF dog, muttered Jules
inaudibly. But you can fall into Ribot's trap.
Then we shall see who laughs, and at whom?
Jules went to the Riviera, confidently and
