By Adele Marion Morton Exhibits Her Secret Fortune’ to Madge, Exacting a Pledge. From my early childhood the idea of a secret compartment in a box, or a hidden sliding panel in a wall has intrigued me, I know that I am not alone in this, that thousands of peo- ple with romantic imaginations, share my liking, even though they feel constrained as I do, to hide their tcelings from their harder-headed relatives and friends. But there was no need to conceal interest from Marion as she ssed the hidden spring which threw open the hottom of her dead grandmother’s old €andalwood box 1 disclosed the secrct compa nt beneath. Her fingers were trembling, her face aglow. and 1 realized that her excitement wus far greater than mine I tried to call my common sense to my aid and to tell myself that the long envelopes crowded into th tom of the box held only the cially worthless letters and keey sakes of an old woman long dead. But 1 could not banish the eerie impression which Marion's recital of her grandmother's tnjunction had t made upon me. It was the most fantastic idea possible, that Tom Morton, who had dJied practically a bankrupt &hould have entrusted any fortune™ to his aged, almost senile mother, to bhe 18, vet my imagination kept dallying with it as Marion lifted the envelopes trom the bottom of the box and laid them in my lap. 1 want you fo look at these, | won't feel easy a minute unless it's Auntie Madge,” she said with an at- | m your care, where he will have no Ampt at being business-like which | chance even to see it.” ar prettily amusing. hen we | She put her grandmother's jewel- van check up on them when we open |« trinkets back in the top tray, the hox again, or you can, if any-|locked the box and put the key in thing should happen to me. lan envelope which she sealed.
