of the premises attired in a smoking Jacket of a honey plaid was lolling in an easy chair his slippered feet stretched toward the fire His com panion Arthur Van Stade had been his greatest friend at college and this was their first meeting in three Vao Stade had been in India killing big game arid bad barely escaped having the tables turned as a large across one cheek testified Jail er bad stayed

dont suppose you will believe me when tell you that when he Into my possession he worth no than The spring after you went away he went on having finished my course I went over to other tide ox the London season J went to London and In London stayed long after the time I had allotted to that city had expired It there I met Edith In six weeks we were engaged The remainder of the summer I pawed fa with of royflsneee had planned lo go to Nice when the coldweather come on and of course I determined go with them went as far as Paris to gether but at the last moment I was detained that city for a few days and was obliged to allow the rest of the party lo proceed without me pro mising to join era in a week at most I had run of funds and the remittance expected from ray father had not arrived This I did not con sider to explain to Edith and dirtily I said vaguely ibat business kept in Paris Four day after their departure the letter from my father arrived- He had heard my to my satisfaction approved of it Besides amount expected he sent an ad ditional with which he instruct ed mc to buy a suitable present for Edith As the modest diamond I had bought for our engagement had been my only gift I gratified with my fathers generous present The morning I started out in search of something for my dear whom I should be with the very next day- My which bad seemed so much ridic- small and I had almost of finding anything worthy of ray beloved when my eyes fell an extremely beautiful necklace con sisting of two rows of pearls caught together at intervals by small diamond clasps asked the price Five thousand francs Monsieur replied the Kxactly the sum I had to spend I I bought it without a moments hesi tation The blue wis about to be wrapped Up when the discovered some imperfection in the clasp He was profuse in his apolo gies and said that it would be repair and ready for me the following morning I explained that this would not do as I was to leave the city on the night express for Nice Alter a moments hesitation the jeweller promised that should have it at oclock without fail As I was leaving the store I noticed a woman standing by my I say I noticed a woman it would be more correct to say lhat I noticed a beautiful white hand with long taper ringers on one of which was a dia unusual size and brilliancy In this band was a small jewelled watch and as I was leaving the count caught a few words spoken in a peculiar musical voice At oclock I returned and true to his promise the man had the necklace ready for roe Placing it in the inside pocket my coat I left the store and had just time to com a few remaining arrangement before going to the station J bought a Mistclass ticket and tipped ihe alter- giving him to understand in my very best trench that I did hot want him to put other passengers in my compartment I lucked my travelling rug around my knees open French novel when the door was opened and a woman hurriedly entered the compartment and took the seat next the window on other side of the car I glanced at my un welcome companion She was dress ed in mourning of the richest material and in perfect taste As I was notic ing these details something by her si that I had at first taken for a fur cape moved It proved to be a black French poodle and as he sat up and turned his head toward me I saw that around neck he wore a broad sil ver- collar from which depended a peculiar heartshaped padlock Turning to my novel soon for got the intruders nor did I again think of until perhaps half an hour later when I was slanted by feeling something cold and wet press ed against my hand It was the poodles nose He had crawled across the seat and was evidently de sirous of making my acquaintance l4 come here exclaimed a singularly familiar voice- The dog paid no to his but wagged his tall content edly as stroked his curly head must excuse my dog sir said my companion He is a great pet and expects every one to notice him I am afraid he will annoy you I protested that he would not and added that fond of dogs poodles fn particular Perhaps roy answer was due in part to the fact that the woman was young and very beautiful- I had only that become aware of this the light having been too dim in the station to let me see face Her voice loo affect ed me singularly it was low and sweet and I was sure that somewhere I had heard it before A little later on looking up found lhat my companion was with out books or papers- so taking an illustrated magazine from my satchel offered it to her She thanked me and smiled sweetly After a time grew tired of my novel and resolved to attempt a liltle conversation wills my neighbor I asked her if she was going to Nice She replied that she was and went on to say that her sister- whom she had expected would go with her had disappointed her at the last moment She spoke of her dislike for tra velling alone particularly at night and explained that as the compart ment reserved for ladles was full she was obliged 10 mine She was sorry to intrude but the train was about to start and the guard had told her all the other seats were taken hastened assure her that I was glad of the lucky chance that had given me so charming a companion As the evening wore on she opened a basket containing a dainty lunch Would I share it with her The cook evidently had a ridiculous idea of appetite Why these was enough for six I This seemed to be the case as we were by this time very well acquainted I accepted her invitation and we were soon doing justice to a really excellent lunch What a charming creature she Is I thought How Edith will like her Growing confidential I spoke of my visit to Nice and of the dear girl who was awaiting me there She seemed interested and listened pa to the recital of my fair ones many charms We will drink her health cried my companion drawing a small silver flask of exquisite workmanship from the depths of basket I always carry a little cognac with me in case of sickness she explained Opening the flask and filling a dainty glass with the amber liquid she handed it lo me with a smile To Ediths health she said I drained the glass It was brandy of the finest quality had ever tasted She seemed lo read my thoughts a judge of good liquor That is Otanl of Taking glass from my hand she little of the liquor into it and barely touched it with her lips Soon after this I began to grow sleepy and as my companion not seem to talk I made as comfortable as circumstances would permit I turned toward the window through which ihe surrounding country could be seen dimly in the moonlight as we rushed along put a roll of rugs under my head and resigned myself to a of discomfort The next thing it broad daylight I awoke with a dull pain in my head and a sense of weariness that my sleep bad rather in creased lhan diminished My companion wis sitting by the window reading rhe book I had her the night before On perceiving that I was awake she put down her book and remarked that I was evi dently a sleeper and that she envied me She bad passed a wretch- night and was ri we should soon be in I thought of Edith should now see so soon and then the surprise I had in store for her hoped that the necklace would please her and then for the first lime occurred lo me that perhaps it would have been better if had con sulted some woman of taste before it A brilliant idea struck my companion was just the one decide I would ask her opinion It was not too late to change the neck lace for something else if she thought it not suitable I was sure she would tell me cindidly just what she thought Unbuttoning my coat drew the package from my pocket and laid it on lap Removing the wrappings I opened the little blue case For a moment I could not believe my eyes it was empty I 1 turned quickly to my compan ion She was leaning forward motion less breathless her face pale and in her eyes a look that I shall never forget One hand was pressed con vulsively over her heart She had removed her gloves worn the night before and on one hand blared a diamond the one I had seen the previous day at the jewelers In an instant I saw it I sprang forward and grasped her wrist roughly I am afraid Give me back the necklace you thief cried know you You stood by my side yesterday in jewelers shop on the Avenue de IOpera I remember that ring and your voice You heard me say I was going to Nice by this train The liquor you gave me was drugged and you thought to escape before your was discovered It was a very clever scheme but it has failed Give me the necklace or shall turn you over to the police 1 stretched out my hand thinking that seeing Ihe folly of further con cealment and the denial she would return the stolen property I was wrong She drew herself up haughtily and looked me full in the face You have brought a serious charge against me she said and one of which I am Innocent I am alone and a woman this with a momentary tremor in her voice that somehow made me ashamed of the way I had spoken id her If as you say you have lost a necklace your only reason lor accusing me of having stolen it is that we have been only occupants of this compart- The instant you opened the box and found it empty I saw the awful position I was placed in For tunately however I can prove my innocence Perhaps you may hesitate before attempting to blackmail an woman As soon as we arrive at Nice I shall insist on going at once to the police nation where a thorough search of my baggage rind person shall be made I shall then ask you to prove that you ever had a neck- lace This remark was accompanied by a smile that was not pleasant to see Until we reach Nice you will not address me again She leaned back in her seat and turned her face toward the window I felt rather than saw that she was crying began to feel uncomfortable What If after all I been too ready to jump at conclusions and had been mistaken Was it not possible that the box might have been empty- when I received it from the jewelers I had not seen necklace after it was left to be repaired as the box was wrapped up when I called or it My companion had insisted on an in vestigation that might prove her inno cencean investigation that a guilty woman would never have proposed Besides this she had expressed a doubt as to the existence of the neck lace and had accused me of an attempt of blackmail The more thought of It the mote unpleasant pdsttion became Suddenly ray eyes fell on some thing bright lying on the floor of the carriage I stood and picked it up It proved to be the little heartshaped I had noticed
