Then he turned to De Pas. “When will the drawings be ready for us to see?” he asked. ! “I can promise them in 10 days’ time,” Armand assured him. It ‘'was nine days later while Armand was still jubilant about his important commission, that, Alacia’s racing Eu- ropa having been repaired, the ample lunch_period so generously allowed by French shopkeepers, was being turned to advantage by the two. When Alacia insisted that Armand try out the car, the power of its marvelous engine and the instant response of the perfectly balanced wheel made him tingle with pleasure. and laugh for sheer joy in being alive and hearing her laugh echo close at his side. Then over an omelet and salad at a small inn on the edge of Paris Armand confided his pride in getting out the designs for her mother’s Jewels a day ahead of time. “Old_Piron said I was quite mad when I promised them for tomorrow,” he told her with a business-like air, “but I've kept right on the engraving chap's trail, and actually got them in this morning. Big business man, eh? I hope she likes them.” “Dearest! Of course, she'll like them!” said Alacia. “Why shouldn't she? By i business ley due to reach Paris this week?” “Bradley got in last night,” Armand replied. “He's coming to the big party your mother is giving tonight and was tremendously interested when I told him about you. Nice of your mother to let me bring him. Is it going to be a frightfully big party?"” “Frightfully Eni renrrully'" she as- sured him. “Composed of the darndest mixture of -people, I'm_warning yo It's mother's birthday affair and every one is invited, from old Piron to San- | tini.” “Down to Santini 15 right!” Armand exclaimed heartily. “Who is that fel- low? I don't care much for him, some- how, almuugh I've only met him once, in the shop.” “Santini is our official driver in the Grand Prix de Monaco” Alacia_ex- plained without enthusiasm. “He's driving a car the exact duplicate of | mine. In fact, you can't tell them apart.” “Lucky dog!"” ought to win easily. driving it myself!” “I wish 50, to0,” she said. “Nothing would please me better. I only wish | something would drop on Santini's head, so that you could take over!” “You don't seem to care much for him, yourself!” Armand remarked half jestingly. “Is there any particular reason for that?” “No,” she was forced to admit don't really know anything against him.

But I wish I could find out something about him.” “I'll find out,” he promised her. “I have, as you may suppose, friends who know many peculiar things. Then there is always the possibility of learn- ing a lot from his dossier—we are all minutely recorded by the police, you know!"” verybody?” exclaimed Alacia. “But, yes, certainly!” he exclaimed. “Didn’t you know? Every one, French or foreign, has his little card on rec- ord. Even respectable you! But the police allow an examination of these records only in case of a crime having been committed. However, as I told | you, one of my three guardian angels is the present prefet de police.

Anyway well see! And meanwhile, my dear, don't worry about Maman! = She is too sensible to take him seriously.” Alacia had her private doubts on this point, but she said nothing of them as Armand drove her into town, and went back to work at Piron's. However, from the moment she left him, Alacia was unable to dismiss his suggestion about the police dossier from her mind. Tomorrow was the day set for Santini’s departure for Monte Carlo. He was to leave late in order to take advantage of the empty roads offered by night driving. but nevertheless there remain- ed very little time to act in case the police report was unfavorable. And supposing that Armand unearthed something unpleasant about the man, what course of action would be best to take considering that it was the very eve of the great race? Her finely penciled brows were knittted over the puzzle as she drove slowly homeward, and that night when she dressed for the gala, the problem was still weigh- ing heavily on her mind. Alacia had chosen a plain blue satin evening gown which set off her figure admirably. Obviously the costume called for pearls, and almost for the first time since she had bought them, Alacia thought of the 1,000-franc | string she had purchased that memor- able morning at Piron’s. = Clasping it around her neck, she decided after a critical glance in the mirror, that it really looked quite well. She wondered if Armand would notice, and remem- ber? And then, dismissing the pearls from her mind, she went e B join her mother, who was already ing herself in front of a great bnnk of flowers where she was to receive the guests. And it was not until later in the evening that Alacia had further occasion to think about her necklace. This was when during the long, elabor- ate dinner, M. Piron, who was seated next to hek.spoke of it admiringly. i ®ther Sernices HALL MISSION 522 6th St. N.W. For the Promotion of Scriptural Holiness.

And as a matter of fact, it is!” “Are you trying to say it is an imita- tion?” he challenged her. “But my little friend, I don’t bell it. I know pearls when I see them “That's your story!” Alacia retorted. “Come on, now M. Piron, don't get in too deep. This necklace cost only a thousand francs, but I must | admit it's a pretty good fake.” “A thousand francs!” he sald in- credu!ously “Tiens, if that is all you paid, you certainly got a bargain! May I look more closely? Algcia undid the c]asp and slipped the strand into his hand. The old gentleman peered at the necklace closely, weighing it with expert fingers, and clicking his_tongue | against his teeth in a puzzled fashion. “T'll swear they are real!” he said at length, handing them back to her. “Are you certain you have not put on your good necklace by mistake?” “Positive!” said she, knowing the real necklace lay hidden behind the impeccable white shirt front which Armand presented to the table a few places away. But the old jeweler re- mained unconvinced. “If those are false pearls,” he as- serted, There is certainly nothing as good in the imitation pearl department at my shop!” 1 5 wan om Hhe il of Alachfs fougui to tell him where she had got her bar- gain when the humor of the old man's mistake led her into keeping quiet | about it. | “Th bet you anything t's just first-class copy,” she said. “And thnt you do sell the same sort.” “Well, I'm not a gambler—jewelers cannot afford to bet,” he said pleasant- Iy, “but_this time I will take you up. ‘Whut shall the bet be?
