You know he is the book- keeper at Evans & Wilson.” “Yes, I know,” nodded the eager busybody. “They are decorators, and all that. Arthur said there was a lot of extra work, this being the rush spring sea- son. He says all hands have been working overtime. Well, I didn’t think 80 much of that, but he has acted strange and secretive. I've heard him chuckle to himself, I've caught him smiling, as if he had some pleasant secret thought. He didn't share it with me, and it worried me, it was so unlike him.” “Plain case!” smirked Mrs. Prescott confldently. “But this morning—oh, how shall I tell it! I took up his coat to iron out a stray wrinkle or two—he is 8o neat and tidy, you know. He jumped at me as if he was terribly startled. He handed back the coat to me, but not undii I saw him slyly remove a roiaea piece of pink paper from the pocket that he did not want me to see.” “Pink? that's bad!” croaked Prescott, oracularly.

She listened, while her visitor went on to give the | result of her investigations in full. Then she collapsed. The trouble- | maker tried to console her.

She's out for a new husband, but she might leave respect- able married men alone, say I!” “Oh, what shall I do?” lamented Al- thea, in wild despair. “Why, I'll stay with you till the cul- prit comes home tonight.
