Even the keen eye of the | gentlemen from the surete who mingled with the staff saw nothing out of the way in any of the preparations for the day's routine, and certainly nothing to comment on in the fact that Ramon ‘Cabereo, the young Argentine salesman in charge of the imitation pearl depart- ment, should slip into the rest room | for a smoke.

Senor Cabereo smoked curious cttes which were made esp>cially for him, and had mouthpieces of green bamboo, & choice of csloring which Cabereo felt added to his exotic air of distinction. In the deserted lcunge he lit one now, and inhaled with an air of keen relish, while at the same time glancing anxiously toward the door. Presently this opened to admit a sec- ond clerk, equally fastidiously groomed, who, as soon as he saw there was no | one else present, produced a handker- | chief from his trouser pocket. “Mousieur I took your handkerchief by mistake,” the newcomer said. “Al- low me to exchange for mine!"” Immediately, and without comment on this curious statement, Senor Ra- mon produced a hendkerchief from his own pocket and the exchange was ef- fected. Then the newccr apparently irrelevant r voice, t5 es to 11 Jfor igar- | er word, strolled from the room. Ra- mon nodded at the retreating figure and felt the contents of the handkerchief with fingers which were slightly damp from nervousness, Then after a quick glance at the clock, he returned to his department. 4 No ‘goods were ever on display at Piron’s, but were kept in little drawers sunk into the paneling of the walls, s0 that there was nothing surprising in the fact that Ramon should turn his back to the shop while examining his stock. Nor was a vacancy in the neat- ly laid rows of imitation pearl neck- laces in one of these cabinets visible te anybody else when he opened it. This vacancy was quickly supplied, however, for from the depths of his handker- chief he drew, unobtrusively, a gleam- ing string of pearls, tagged it with a price mark at 1,000 francs, and laid it gingerly in place. cabinet and settled into a waiting at- titude. The clock dgbove the doorway read a quarter to 11, and a moment later Ramon noticed that a young woman was approaching his depart- ment. With a little shock he realized | that the green-tipped cigarette was still | between his lips, a practice strictly for- |bidden in the shop itself, and he stamped it out hastily in the ashtray on his counter just as Alacia Sayers dropped into the seat in front of him “I want,” said Alacia, “to see a string of good imitation pearls, something not teo expensive, but nice “About 25,000 francs?” Ramon sug- “Nonsense!” replied Alacia promptly, “a friend of mine told me she'd bought a beauty here for. a tiusand.” The young Argentinian smiled in a supe- rior manner. “Of course, if mademoiselle Wwishes,” he murmured, “I have the cheap strings!

All the strings were apout of a size | and length, and of a beauty which did credit to the taste and honesty of the famous establishment which had only recently made this concession to a popular demand. But Alacia’s quick eye fastened instantly on the particu- lar string which Ramon had laid i place only a moment before. She pi: ed it up carelessly, noted the price on the tag and smiled up at the young South American in her pleasant, frank manner. “This one is lovely!” she declare “Now why on earth should anybody wear real pearls when they can buy a necklace like this for $40? “As a matter of fact, that one is not very good!" said the boy, his hands clammy, his voice controlled by the ut- most effort. “These strings vary a lot. Look for example, this would be my choice, mademoiselle!” To his infi- nite relief Alacia dropped her first choice and examined the necklace he offered. aid doubtfull But the other n she picked up the firs: string. she said. “I like the slight irregularities on this one.” “But, mademoiselle!” ihe almost moa I ascure you. that is the least able of the lot.

This was not the first time that a clerk in a French shop had at- tempted to overawe her by an air of superiority, as though a mere Ameri- caine was, of course, incapable of choos- ing for herself.
