After my disastrous | visit to Paris;, no news whatever had come to me from my husband. A slack period had set in at the dress- making establishment where T had been employed, and I was informed that my services were no longer nec- essary. 1 spent a month at a mani- curist's and a few weeks at a photo- graphic studio. Mrs. Trumperton-Smith advertised in the Morning Post for a companion and lady's maid. I won the post on account of my manners and appear- ance. My mistrebs was a lady of ample person and ample means. She lived in excellent style and apparently had plenty of money. She was a widow about 45 years old, still good- leoking in a florid sort of way, and well enough educated from the mid- dle-class point of view. Men were | her one and everlasting hobby. 1 We were staying at the Magnificent Hotel at Brighton when the idea which 1 have mentioned, of robbing my mistre: first took definite shape in my mind. I should have bided my | time, I think, but for two reasons. One was that the salary which she paid me was absurdly small and 1 saw no chance of savi anything, and the other was the very imminent fear of being anticipated. M Trum- rerton-Smith was not always so dis- creet as she should have been in her acquaintances. At the pr It wa had been t time she was on ex- ceedingly friendly terms with a Mr. Sidney Bloor, whom I put down, from the moment I first saw him, as an undoubted adventurer. He was always dressed in the height of fashion, and he had acquired the shibboleth of the up-to-date young man of the moment. He made lan- guid attempts to kiss me whenever he found me alone. He found me one evening, some four months after our arrival in Brighton, alone in the silling-roomi at about the hour when Madam was]| sometimes pleased to dispense cock- tails. A spasmodic attempt at gal- lantry having been met and re- pulsed, he lingered to watch me busy repairing a hair-ornament which my mistress desired to wear that eve- ning. “Where is the old bird?" he asked confidentially. “Madam is out playing bridge with some friends,”” I told him. “What little gewgaws are sending her down in tonigh®?"” “Whatever she chooses to wear,” 1 lied. l’e")‘Onl_\' last night,” remarked, wghe told me that it was generally you who made the selection.” “She usually does wear what I put out,” 1 assented. “Which do you admire her in most, Mr. Bloor?” The young man scratched his chin thoughtfully. “It doesn’'t matter to me what she wears,” he sighed. “I know a little girl, though, who would look the real thing decked out in those dia- monds, eh?” “I expect you have a large guaintance amongst my sex,” I plied demurely. “You're a cold young woman, net,” he complained. My last ning, too.” 3 “Are you going away? “Back to the city tomerrow. my own master and all that, of course—take a week or two just when I want it—but one has to pick up a bit of the rhino now and then.” “If it is really your last night,” 1 said, “tell me what jewelry you would like the mistress to wear this ——————————— How to Make Pine Cough Syrup at Home you he ac- re- Ja- eve- I'm Haa no equal for prompt results. ome! 3 Ta S Yaves You about §1. | T— You know that pine is used in nearly all prescriptions and remedies for coughs. The reason is that pine contains several peculiar elements that have a remark- able effect in soothing and healing the membranes of the throat and chest. Pine is famous for this purpose. i Pine cough syrups are combinations of pine and syrup. The “syrup” part is usually plain sugar syrun. To make the best pine cough remedy that money can buy, put 23 ounces of Pinex in a_pint bottle, and fill up with home-made sugar syrup. Or you can use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, you make a full pint—more than you can buy ready-made for three times the money.

The cough may be dry, hoarse and tight, r may be persistentiy loose from the formation of phlegm.

It was perfectly clear to me now that if 1 were going to rob Mrs, Trumperton-Smith at all, it had better be done quickly, The drinking of cockalls was con- cluded a little more quickly than usual, and Mrs, Trumperton-Smith jcined me in the bedroom, full of what passed with her as geniality, It was a quality, however, which was entirely superficial, and in a general way T found her disagree- able, selfish and jealous to a degree. I 'RELIEVED HER OF HER JEWELS. ALL THE TIME MR. ELOOR WAS WATCHING WITH A GLEAM IN HIS EYE. She withdrew the key of her jewel- case from.a bracelet and passed it to me. I, selected the diamond necklace, ear rings and bracelet, locked up the case and returned the key. My mis- tress’ expression softened as she looked at herself in the glass. She picked up her gold bag, looked inside to see that I had placed her handkerchief there, and turned away. ‘‘See that the fire is kept up in the sitting-room, Janet,” she ordered. “Mr. Bloor and I will take our coffee there.” I went into the steward’s room and had my supper as usual, and 1 also paid a visit to Mr. Bloor's bed- room and borrowed - certain trifles which I proposed to use later on. 1 happened to know that both he and Mrs. Trumperton-Smith were en- gaged to play bridge after dinner at a neighboring hotel. I contrived to leave open the con- necting door between the bedroom and the sitting-room, and to be in the former when they returned for their coffee. Madam had come in for her cloak, and they were on the point of starting out again, wWhen her escort at last gave me the cue for which I had been, waiting. “I say, " Mimi,” called her ‘Mimi’ although she weighed fourteen stone—"I don't feel comfortable walking along the front with you in those diamonds. Leave them behind, there's a dear.” “Just as you like, dear,” she as- sented meekly. 'Perhaps you're right, especially if we go on to supper afterward. Here, Janet!"” I hurried out. “Yes, madam?" ake these off—all of them,” directed, extending her arms poising her neck. he drawled—he she and You ARE UP PRETTY EARLY THIS MORNING, MOTHER - You LOOK BRIGHT AS A DAISY! “1 am going out( and may be late.' I relleved her of the jewels. All the time Mr, Bloor was watching with a gleam in nis eyes, “If you will give me your key, madam, I will lock them up,” I sug- gested, “Oh, that will do when I get back,” she sald, “Put them in one of the drawers, Janet.,” They went off together. ‘I did ex- actly as I had been bidden, and after- ward lingered in the sitting-room while I completed my plans. I had just come to a decision when there was & sharp knock at the door, The manager of the hotel—a Mr, Leon Grant-—made his appearance, He looked around the empty sitting- room, ‘I understood that Mrs, Trumper- ton-Smith was up here,” he said courteously, “Mrs, Trumperton-Smith went some little time ago,” I told him, “What time do you expect your mistress back?" he inquired. ¢ “She did not say, sir,” 1 replied. “The last time she went out to play Lridge, it was about one o'clock when she returned. Mr. Bloor is with her.” The manager nodded and away. “Can 1 give her any message, sir?"” I added. He hesitated, closed the door came back again. “I should imagine,” he said, look- ing at me attentively, “that you are a .trusted servant.” L a8 engaged as companion- lady’'s-maid, sir,” I tgld him. "I be- lieve that my mistress has every con- fidence in me."” He nodded. “To tell you the truth,” he ex- plained, “I am a little worried about your mistress’ jewels. There was a small robbery last night at a hotel in the neighborhocd, and 1 have had an indirect sort of warning from the police that there are thieves about. Mrs. Trumperton-Smith has the reputation of being very careless. I came to ask her if she would allow me to keep her jewels in the hotel safe."” “I should be very glad if you could persuade her to do so” I'as- sured him. “I suggested it when we arrived, but Madam likes to take them out and look at them when she is alone.” “It is scarcely fair upon any ho- tel,” the manager pointed out a lit- tle querulously. “Will you be so kind as to tell me where she keeps them?"” I showed him the case, although T said nothing of the diamonds in the drawer. He frowned severely. ‘It is placing temptation in ple's way,” he declared. “The door of the bedroom is ways locked,” I reminded him, “and you have a night-watchman. Then, too, we are on the fourth story—" “My dear young woman,” he in- terrupted irritably, “those things are nothing to an experienced thief.. The hotel safe is the only place for such jewelry as Mrs. Trumperton-Smith possesses.’” (Continued in Our Next Issue). out turned and peo- al- PATENTS ISSUED TO CONN, PEOPLE Patents Issued by the U, S, Patent Office Feb, 27, 1928, to Connecticut Inventors, (List furnished by the office of Harold G."Manning, Walk-Over store, 211 Main street, New Britain,) Frans G.
