Mallory’s heart sank to its usual depth, but Marjorie had another or her inspirations. She startled every- body by suddenly beckoning and call- ing: “Excuse me, Mr. Robber. Come here, please.” The curious gallant edged her way, keeping a sharp watch along the line: “What d’you want?" Marjorie leaned nearer, and spoke in a low tone with an amiable smile: “That lady who wanted to kiss you has a bracelet up her sleeve." v, ,, found her bracelet, and accomplished what Mallory had failed in, its re- moval. “Don’t, don’t" cried Kathleen, "it's wished on.” "I wish it on," the villain laughed, and it joined the growing heap in the feed-bag. Kathleen, doubly enraged, broke out viciously: “You’re a common, sneakingâ€"" “Ah, turn round!” the n and she obeyed in silence. Then he explored Mrs. Whitcomb, but with such small reward that he said: “Say, you’d oughter have a pocketbook somewhere. Where's it at ?" Mrs. Whitcomb blushed furiously: "None of your business, you low brute.” “Perdooce, madame," the scoundrel snorted, “perdooce the purse, or 1’11 hunt for it myself.” Mrs, Whitcomb turned away, and after some management of her skirts, slapped her handbag Into the eager palm with a wrathful: “You’re no gen. tleman, sir! " “If I was, I’d be in Wall street,” he laughed. “Now you can turn round." And when she turned, he saw a bit of chain depending from her back hair. He tugged. and brought away the locket, and then proceeded to sound Ashton for hidden wealth. And now Mrs. Temple began tdsob, as she .parted with an old-fashioned brooch and two aid-fashioned rings that had been her little vanities for the quarter of a century and more. The old clergyman could have wept with her at the vandalism. He turned on the wretch with a heartsick ap- Deal: ever have a mother? The robber started, his fierce eyes softened, his voice choked, and he gulped hard as he drew the back of his hand across his eyes. “Aw, hell.” he 'whimpered, “that ain’t fair. If you're goin’ to remind me of me poor old mo-mo-motherâ€"” But the one called Jakeâ€"the Claude Duval who had been prevented from a display of human sentiment. did not intend to be cheated. He thundered: "Stop it, Bill. You ’tend strictly to business, or I'll blow your mush-bowl off. You know your Maw died before you Was born.” This reminder sobered the weeping thief at once, and he Went back to work ruthlessly. “Oh, all right, Jake. Sorry, ma’am, but- business is busi- ness." And he dumped Mrs. Temple’s trinkets into the satchel. It was too much for the little old lady’s little old husband. He fairly shrieked: “Young man, you're a damned scoundrel, and the best argument I ever saw for hell-fire!" Mrs. Temple's grief changed to hor- ror at such a bolt from the blue: “Walter!” she gasped, “such lan- guage!” â€" But her husband answered in self- defenso: “Even a minister hasarignt to swear once in his lifetime.” Mallory almost dropped in his tracks, and Marjorie keeled over‘on him, as he gasped. "Good Lord, Dr. Temple, you are aâ€"a minister?" “Yes, my boy,” the old man con- fessed, glad that the robbers had re- lieved him of his guilty secret along with the rest of his private properties. Mallory looked at the collapsing Mar- jorie and groaned: “And he was in the next berth all this time!” The unmasking of the old fraud made a second sensation. Mrs. Fos- dick called from far down the aisle: “Dr. Temple, you’re not a detective?” Mrs. Temple shouted hack furious- ly: “How dare you?" ,‘an't you spare those? Didn't you CHAPTER XXXIX.

Mr. and Mrs. Fosdick steal a kiss behind their 'upraised arms, for the robber to whose lot Mallory tell was gloating over his well-filled wallet. Mallory saw it go with fortitude: but. noting a piece of legal paper, he said: “Say, old man, you don’t want that marriage license, do you?" The robber handled it as it It were hotâ€"as it he had burned his fingers on some such document once before. and he stuffed it back in Mallory’s pocket. “I Should say not. Keep it. Turn round.” And now Mrs. Temple’s gentle eyes and voice filled with tears again: “Oh, don’t take that. That’s the money for his vacationâ€"after thirty long years. Please don’t take that.” And now everybody had been robbed but Marjorie. She happened to be at the center of the line, and how. men reached her at the same time: “I seen her first." the first on. shouted. “You did not," the other roared. “I tell you 1 did.” “I tell you I did."

It monarchs have often permitted themselves the indulgence of making puns the fact has not been recorded is the pages of history. One pun. how- ever. is assigned to King Frederick William IV. of Prussia. it is said that on the occasion of a court ball he was standing. near the middle of the dance hall in conversation with an exceed- ingly thin ambassador. in the haste and excitement of a fiery galop a lieu. tenant of the hussars danced with his partner between the monarch and the persos whom he was addressing. and then. seeing what he had done. he be- gan to stammer abject apologies and explanations.

Hired ROI-fives. In Bukharest. the capital of Ron- mania. flourishes the noble profession of “hired relatives," which undertakes to furnish to everybody in want of parents, brothers, sisters, aunts, etc.. the necessary persons to represent them. Persons who desire to get mar- ried, for instance. and have no par. ents to figure at their respective wed- dings or who are in possession of such who decline to give their consent to the marriage of their sons and daugh- ters need do nothing more than station themselves near the eptrance to the marriage license bureau. There they will soon find themselves accosted by some “gentleman" or “lady." who for a moderate sum of money is willing to take the place of the absent parent.
