By CLARISSA MACK1E f
On tho nlaht of Edith Palmer's birth
day ball her husband camo homo early
and sought his wib In her own rooms.
His haudsomo face was aglow with
love and admiration as ho took the
lovely form in hla arms and kissed her
eager, red Hps.
"Darling, you nro more beautiful ev
ery time I see you," ho murmured.
"And you grow more blind," she
chlded hlra playfully. "I have been
waiting for you to eomo and tell me
what jewels I shall wear tonight." She
turned to tho dressing table and threw
back tho lid of a jewel box and remov
ed tho trays. Diamonds, sapphires and
emeralds blazed In tho light.
"Wear your rubles, Edith," said Dick
Palmer, with a mysterious Binlle.
"Rubles? Don't tease, Dick. Those
nre tho only atones I really want and
do not possess. Shall It bo diamonds?"
"Rubles tonight," Insisted Dick, and
from an Inner pocket of his coat ho
drew forth a flat leather case and plac
ed It In her hands.
"Dick Palmer, you darling!" crlod
Edith, and sho showered kisses npon
him beforo sho opened tho bos. When
she finally throw bock tho lid she was
awed by 'tho boauty of tho stones her
husband had eeloctod. for her birthday
gift
On a bod of white velvet was coiled
a magnificent necklace of flawless ru
bles, perfect In color and each stone
the slzo of n very largo pea.
Dick lifted tho necklace and clasped
It around his wifo's neck; then he stood
back to admlro tho rich red circle of
fire against tho whiteness of her skin.
"Tou dear, extravagant boy I" mur
mured Edith as sho turned to the mir
ror to foast her eyes on tho jewel. "I
suppose you paid an onormous price
for it"
"I paid a pretty stiff price, but I
guess it's worth it. I didn't buy it In
Buffam's. It isn't a brand new neck
lace; neither Is it reconstructed from
an old one. If s a genulno antique said
to have belonged to an Asiatic ruler."
"Whore did you And it, Dick?"
"In Lenqulth's on Fourth avenue.
I've had It a month now, and Butfam
has been cleaning It up for mo. Well,
I must run away and dress." Dick
kissed his wife again and left the
room.
Edith stood long beforo tho mirror
watching tho liquid flamo of tho ruby
necklaco as sho slowly turned her neck.
At last sho unclasped It and replaced
it within Its case.
"I'll not wear It down to dinner. It
will bo a surprise for all of them when
tho ball begins," sho said to herself
and looked nround for a placo in which
to secret tho case. Hha large Jewel box
would Just fit Into tho tiny steel safe
sunk in the wall near tho chimney.
Beforo the Inconspicuous door there
was hung a heavily framed square
painting, which could bo moved aside
only by pressing a knob on tho other
side of tho room.
Now Edith selected n diamond brace
leta dazzling serpent with ruby eyes
nnd slipped it on her arm. Then she
closed and locked tho largo Jewel box,
pressed tho knob that moved asldo the
squaro picture and placed tho box In
tho little safe. There, was room after
all for the now Jowel caso containing
tho ruby necklaco, and nftor another
glimpse of tho beautiful Jowel Edith
tucked that In the safo, closed tho steel
clad door, replacod tho picture and
went down to dinner Just n3 tho gong
sounded.
Tho rooms were bowers of loveli
ness. A soparato color schemo had
been soloctod for each one, and tho
wholo harmonized in ono glorious ar
rangement of flowers nnd palms.
Thoro wero several people staying at
tho Palmers', and most of them were
gathered in tho drawing room when
Edith entered tho Maxflolds, husband
and wife; Eugenia Card, nn old school
friond of Edith's, and Dick's father,
Henry Palmer. Tho fifth guest, Mme.
Geulot had not yet Joined them.
Just as tho last strokes of the hall
clock died away thoro was a rustic of
silk that hesitated outside tho door,
and then Mmo. Geulot camo swiftly
in, hor bright coloring enhanced by
two vivid crimson polnscttlas at her
breast Her rich blue-black hair was
colled in a soft knot at tho back of her
shapely head, and nbovo her low,
thoughtful brow was placed a coronet
of diamonds. Mmo. Geulot was a very
beautiful woman.
"A thousand pardons, cherie," she
cried penitently. "That so stupid Ma
rie of mmo has mado what you call
a muddlo of my toilet" Sho throw out
her hands with a graceful gesture of
despair, and her long dark eyes darted
from ono smiling faco to another.
Mrs. Palmer shook her charming
bead and lookod at tho vision In amber
J?atin and diamonds. "Dear Mme. Geu
lot" sho said swootly, "If you want to
part with Mario I shall bo delighted to
relievo you of your stupid treasurer'
"No, nor' And they all laughod at
madamo'B dismay.
In splto of tho forthcoming ball the
dinner was aa perfect ml it always had
been since Plerro Oaron had ruled In
tho" Palmer kltchon. When tho meal
.was concluded Edith went upstairs to
complete her toilet, leaving her gueatd
As sho went up tho stairway to tho
next floor two faces peered at her from
a curtained alcove two dark faces
with cunning eyes but so contrasting
wero tholr conditions in life that had
you coupled their namea tho world
would hnvo laughed at you.
After dismlsstag hor maid Edith lock
ed the door of her room and hastened
to open tho wall sufo, where her jew
els wero secreted. Sho started back
with n little cry of dismay, for tho box
containing tho ruby necklace had dis
appeared. Sho recovered herself nlmost Instant
ly. "Of courso Dick had taken it out
to show, his father, but how did ho
know It wns there? Do guessed it,
as I did not woar It at dinner," sho
said as sho closed tho safo, picked up
her gloves and fan and went down to
the drawing room, outwardly composed.
Her brain was a chaos of doubt and
perplexity. Sho dreaded to ask her
husband about tho necklaco. Sho was
afraid to hear his answer.
Dick met her nt tho door of tho
drawing room. "Whcro is tho neck
lace?" he asked quickly.
She paled to tho lips. "Then you did
not take it from the safe?" she gasped.
"No, of course not. I didn't know it
was there."
"Then it has been stolen!" And sho
related the circumstances.
no frowned. "Whcro is Jeanne?".
"She was in my room when I re
turned to it after dinner. I dismissed
her then."
It happened at dinner," bo said
convincingly. 'Til ring up a detec
tive, no can como ns a guest Don't
montlon tho matter to any ono."
No," said Edith, and went to re
ceive tho first nrrivals.
In splto of tho loss of tho ruby neck
laco tho birthday ball was a distinct
success. No ono would havo surmised
from tho swoot composuro of tho
hostess that sho had suffevod a great
loss. Many complimented hor on tho
loveliness of her appearance, and oth
ers added that sho noodod no Jowels
to enhnnco her boauty.
Dick Palmer introduced a slim, dark
haired man in correct evening attire
as tho dotoctlvo, Mr. Block, nnd in n
fow crisp questions ho drew from
Edith all tho facts surrounding tho
thoft of tho ruby necklace. ,
"Block suggests a guest in the
houso," said Dick later to his wife as
they stood nlono together.
"Impossiblo!" said Edith. "Tho Max-
fields aro abovo suspicion. Eugenia
could buy forty ruby necklaces. Your
father absurd! It must have been
ono of the extra servants."
"Joanne?" asked her husband quietly.
"Oh, Jennno is too much of n cow'
ard to attempt anything big llko that.
Sho might purloin a collar In fact
sho has a passion for collars and hand
kerchiefs, but not Jowels."
"You havo not montloned our other
guest Edith," said Dick quietly.
Sho mado a gesutro of dismay and
searched tho room with her eyes.
"Mme. Geulot! Oh, Dick! I know
you havo warned mo against my intl
macy with her, when my acquaintance
with her is so slight But her letters
from Paris wero genuine, and sho is
so delightful! I wonder where sho is.
I havo not seen her slnco dinner."
"I will search for her," said Dick
quietly and wns gone.
AVhen ho mado his reappoaranco the
last of tho guests wero taking depar
ture, and when they wero nlone he
placed his arm around his wife's slen
der form.
"Dear," ho said, "bo prepared for nn
unpleasant shock. Tho ruby nocklaco
has boon traced to Mm Geulot. De
tectlve Bleek found tho Jewel case on
tho person of our cook, Plerro Caron
who has confessed that tho robbery
was one of many that ho and his wife,
Celeste Geulot nono other, my dear
had planned. It seems sho saw you
trying on tho nocklaco after I had left
you, watched yon hide it away and
when you had loft tho room slipped in
secured tho rubles, concealed them In
her room and went down lato to dinner,
"After dinner Pierre, hor husband
went to her and domanded tho nock
laco. Sho refused to give it to him
then, and ho took tho empty case and
went below, furious at her. Sho is
now in her room or lias escaped with
tho necklace. Will you go to her room
and see if sho is there? I want to
avoid tho servants knowing of the af
fair if possible,"
Edith went to tho door of Mme. Geu
lot's room nnd tapped lightly. There
was no response to her summons or to
louder knocking. Then Bleek set his
shoulder to the door, nnd tho lock gave
way. lie peered insldo and then
sprang within. Tho Palmers followed,
gravely apprehonslve.
Mme. Geulot was there. Sho was
sitting beforo a choval glass In all the
regal splendor of her amber sntin ball
gown. About her throat was clasped
tho ruby necklace.
She was dead.
Bleek stepped forward and unclasp
ed tho necklaco and examined it
closely. "That's tho way with many
of theso Asiatic baubles," bo said
thoughtfully. "I happen to havo heard
of this one beforo. Thero is a largo re
ward out for it. Thero Is a legend that
If it is honestly bought or sold or pre
sented as a gift It is quite harmless.
If it is stolen tho wearor pays tho
prlco, as Mmo. Goulot has done, poor
oul!"
Ho pointed to tho throat of the dead
woman, whero a heavy black mark en
circled the whiteness of her neck.
"It grew tighter and Anally strangled
hor," ho explained asjthey went nway
and closed tho door behind them.
"That's an AslaUc trick, too," ho said.
But Edith and hor husband wore not
listening. Edith was weeping bitterly.
Sho was grieving for tho friend who
had pioved false and who had paid the
price.

U 1CARM JOURNAL ("cream, not skim milk") is the great little
paper published for 36 years in Philadelphia by Winner
Atkinson. It is taken and read by more families than any other
farm paper in the WORLD. Its four million readers (known as
" Our Folks ") are the most intelligent and prosperous country
people that grow, and they always say the Farm Journal helped
to make them so. Their potatoes are larger, their milk tests higher, their hogs
weigh more, their fruit brings higher prices, because they read the Farm Journal.
Do you know Peter Tumbledown, the old fellow who won't take the Farm Journal? By showing
how NOT to run a farm, Peter makes many prosperous. Nobody can go on reading the Farm Journal
and being a Tumbledown too. Many have tried, but all have to quit one or the other.
The Farm Journal is bright, brief, "boiled down," practical, full of gumption, cheer and sunshine.
It is strong on housekeeping and home-making, a favorite with busy women, full of life and fun. for boys and
girls. It sparkles with wit, and a happy, sunny spirit. Practical as a plow, readable as a novel. Clean and
pure, not a line of fraudulent or nasty advertising. All its advertisers are guaranteed trustworthy.
The Farm Journal gives more for the money and puts it in fewer words than any other farm paper.
32 to 80 pages monthly, illustrated. FIVE years (60 issues) for $1.00 only. Less than 2 cents a month.
No one-year, two-year or three-year subscriptions taken at any price.

It is miking a liettcr class of people out of farmers, , It was first

"We have read your dear little paper for nearly 40
vears. Now w e don't live on the farm any more, yet I still have a
hankering for the old paper. I feel that I belong to the family, and
every page is as dear and familiar as the faces of old friends," sas
Mrs. 13. W. Edwards.
"I fear I neglect my business to read it. I wish it
could be in the hands of every farmer in Virginia," says V. S. Cline.
"I live in a town where the van! is only 15 x 18 feet,
but I could not do without the Farm Journal," says Miss Sara
Carpenter.
"I get lots of books and papers, and put them aside
for future reading. The only paper I seem to have in my hands
all the time is Farm Journal. 1 can't finish reading it. Can't ou
make it less interesting, so I can have a chance at my other
papers ? " writes John Swail.
"If I am lonesome, down-hearted, or tired, I go to
Farm Journal for comfort, next to the Bible," says Mabel Dewitt.
"Farm Journal has a cheerful vein running through
it that makes it a splendid cme for the "blues." W'Iimi coming
