At which time Devlin strange affair INSTALLMENT XL "It was by that time empty," the comte reminded him "alter resurrection. We only know," the comte continued, "that the women of our family have often worn the Peace Stone and there has never been an attempt to steal It. We have noticed also that people to whom It was shown have looked at It with veneration rather than the sort of one often sees tn the eyes of persons who examine a precious gem. But quite aside from its reputed mystic qualities, I do not think that anybody would run as great risk in wearing such a diamond as this as in one of far less value and of which it would be much easler-tdispose." Easter looked at him thoughtfully. "How many generations of your family have safeguarded the Peace Stone, Comte de .Marsac?" "I am the seventh, mademoiselle." "Then." said Easter, "with all due respect to the honor and high traditions of the de Marsac family, the mere fact that seven generations have (each in turn had custody of a diamond of enormous vajue, each successor holding it as a trust to be restored some day to Its proper owner, should such be found. Is to me more wonderful than the stone itself. I have not only you to thank for it, Comte de Marsac, but the six splendid noblemen who were your ancestors. That is something that cannot be done with words, but onjy with the heart. My profoundest gratitude to the Comte de Marsac." "Ah, my dear," said the comte, "you have expressed precisely the appreciation that does us the greatest honor. But look, It has brought us blessings, if only in an ideal to be cherished throughout our succession, that there can be n symbol of honesty which is the ultimate of honor, its final word, and as such never to be broken under any stress at all." He leaned toward Easter, dropped his hands lightly on her shoulder and kissed her on one cheek and then the other. "May this symbol bless you and your posterity likewise, sweet child." When, in the quaint custom of the house, Jacqueline had given them each a lighted bedroom candle at the foot of the stairs and they had gone up; Devlin paused at Easter's door. "I wish." he said, "that your graceful acceptance of the Peace 8tone covet-ousne- o 30130 IOC 1 Hallo we en Are you ready for the fun of this Spooky Holiday? ss had made as much of a hit with Jacqueline as with the comte." "Do you think she's sore, Dev?" "Trajd so. She likes this thing about as much as Armand does. Less, ' perhaps." "I'm horribly upset about that, Dev," Easter said. "I felt it when she was in my room before dinner. What can I do about It,?" Only One of Several Complications. "I don't know. That's only one of several complications. Getting it home is another. The duty might clean you out." "Oh, dear, I hadn't thought of that." Easter looked dismayed. "I may have to leave the Peace Stone over here, and perhaps it wouldn't approve that. Bring me bad luck." "Did you get the comte's relief at being rid of it?" Devlin asked. it did strike me that he "Well didn't seem to want to lose any time about being relieved of his responsibility, once he was convinced my unadvanced claim was sound." Devlin nodded. "It's not hard to guess why." Easter looked startled.

And that's Just what puzzles "Perhris.,"Eastx suggested, "the comte had some reason to fear, these same bandits that attacked us in Washington."

Danger that Jacqueline and the wicked cousin in the piece might swipe the Peace Stone. Well, that danger ought to be over with. As head of the family, the comte was acting entirely within his right. All the same, you take good care of that big rock." "I'll wear it. I've got faith in its mystic properties, it you haven't." Easter said. "Not sure but what I share them quite a lot," Devlin admitted. "You punched the bell when you politely expressed wonder that seven generations had been proof against avarice. In seven generations of any family from peasants up to princes there's Esalmost certain to be one slip-upecially in the case of treasure of owner which the can't be traced. Yes, that's more than enough to make even a doubting Thomas like me believe there must be something in it. ." Let's hope so. Good night: Goes to Bed With Peace Stone Around Neck. In her room, Easter decided that Devlin might be right about Jocque line, and the comte. She undressed. and with the Peace Stone hung round her neck, got into bed. Her door was locked, the volets of the windows drawn and fastened by the iron bolt dropped into its crochet, to leave the edges of the blinds about four inches apart. Iired from the day's run, Easter had expected to fall asleep' lmme diately. Put the excitement of receiving the Peace Stone now kept ner awaxe. Her mind refused to release the Idea that it may have been better if she had declined to accept the jewel so precipitately. The whole performance was as Devlin had said from the start,,yery cloudy. Despite the comte's evitSkrt hurry to make the transfer and his threat, for It amounted to that, of turning it over to the Jesuits, Easter now wished that she had reserved her decision for at least another day. A nervousness that was of doubt rather than fear enveloped her. This effectually b.nlshed sleepiness. Easter was beginning to wonder if she were going to lie awake all night when she heard a slight noise at her door as if the knob, or rather handle, were being turned. This was followed by a faint tapping. It must be Devlin who had either thought of something he wished to tell her or else discovered some cause for disquiet, Easter thought. She slipped out of bed and went to the door without turning on her light Then with her hand on the bolt to slide it back a low voice outside said: " "Monsieur Carter "Who is there?" Easter asked. "It is I. Armand de Marsac. I thought this was his room." Easter slid the bolt and opened the door a crack. She did not think about the Peace Stone of which the locket would be visible In the dim light from the hall outside. "What's the matter?" she asked. "I have Just arrived." Armand said "I must speak to Devlin Carter." "I think his room Is on the next floor. What's wrong?" "Will you please dress auicklv and come down to the front door. Put on your traveling coat." Armand said. "I'll rouse Devlin and meet vou there. Please hurry. Don't alarm anybody." Easter Dresses, Then Joins Armand. He turned and went down the hall. Easter closed the door softly, then switched on her light and dressed. Turning off the light agalnLshe went outnrTdowh to theTroriTdoor. No one was there, but a moment later . p. . . Your Home And You jMlliiilii:iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisiiiiiiiiilllMtiiii(lliiuiiiiM:ni If you went to your telephone and shouted, "Help, help! Send the police," or "Fire, fire; please call the fire department," you would doubtless get the sort of help you needed without much further to do. But other emergencies occur in the housewife's round of existence when such Instant cooperation is not forthcoming. The weather takes a sudden turn from summer to winter and it occurs to you that you need firewood and need it at once. You may want a mother's helper light away. Unexpectedly you may plan to give a dinner and you may want extra help In the kitchen. A pipe may burst and you need a plumber or the battery in your car may grow listless and you may need a taxi. And when the need comes suddenly you may find It most inconvenient to search out the telephone numbers needed or may, in fact, not know where to find them. It Is helpful to have a card near your telephone on which are written the telephone numbers most often called. There are also some numbers that may not be called often, but that are none the less good to have where you can get at them easily. Such a list should always have the telephone number of a doctor, even if you are so healthy that you have no regular attendant. It should have the business telephone number of the head of the house. Vou may know it, but in an unexpected emergency someone else may want to have it at hand. If you have children in school, the number of the principal's office should be listed. Not perhaps on that first list, but somewhere where you can get at it it is a good plan to have written down the name of plumber, carpenter, employment agency, window washer, etc. Neighbors and acquaintances often menUon the names of people who have worked satisfactorily for them and unless we do keep a note of these facts we are pretty sure to have forgotten them by the time we need them most.

GREENBACK HIGH TIDE IN 1880. WASHINGTON, D. C - The preliminaries of the presidential contest of 1880 had many points similar to that of 1912. Oeneral Orant was a candidate for a third term not a third consecutive term, but a third break. He had term after a four-yemade a trip around the world and wherever he went had been received with that same acclaim and welcome that characterized the European visit of Theodore Roosevelt at the end of his African hunt.

"I did so, from Pontivy, about an hour ago. I drove fast. The gendarmes ought to be here now. But Devlin said I must get you away at once." "Why that?" Easter asked. "Because," Armand said impabe any tiently, "if there should hitch, and this band get here first and in force, you would be the object of their attack." "Then the sooner we go the better," Easter said. "But what If we meet them?" "No fear if we go My car is at the gate andimmediately. they will come from the opposite direction.

The very morning of the day the nomination was made, Garfield, who was leading the Sherman forces, declared he was afraid that Grant would be nominated after all and that it would destroy the Republican party; DARK HORSE WINS. Garfield's speech nominating Sherman, in which he declared,that the fine frenzy of the Gipnr adherents reminded him of the billows and the spray of a tempest-tosse- d ocean, taut that all heights and depths are measured from a still, smooth sea, riveted the eyes of the convention upon him.
