OCTOBER. 21, 1KC9 UOVV I .VA YioTiMlZhSS). coxcLrnEr ''Give me a glasd -if sherry," La said, impatieutly. 'No. not thar, gld.-s the other Mr. I dou't know your caaaa try that sherry." - He sipped a little. "You'll Cud it very good,"' I thank you," I said quietly; "bat I never take ie io business hours." "Won't you try the port, then?" ho said. , ."1 would much rather not," I replied. "A littla cake?" suggested the lady. I bowed, and declined, when Mr?. Koss readjusted her husband s respilator, leaning over the while. "Now, let ma sea that bracelet." said Mr. lloss, pointing to one" upon the table. "But are these all you have brought?" "Yes, sir," I said; "but I can easily bring a fresh selection though I had brought over two thousand pounds' worth. "Hem, yes," he said:, "of course! Da you like that bracelet, LillaV" ' "Yes said Mrs. iioss; "I picked it oat particularly -yesterday.: That emerald ii so beautiful." "I'ut it on,"he said, curtly and she clasped it upon her arm. "How mnch?" he said shortly. "Thirty-five guineas," I replied. "Dear' he said; "very dear. The bracelet we bought at the shop was far more handsome, at the same money." "No love; it was sixty guineas," said Mrs. Itoss. "Ah I was it? I forgot," he said carelessly. "Well, lay that aside; I don't want you to come for nothing," He turned over the various rings, askinsj the price of nearly every article I had brought, when, suddenly throwing himself impatiently back, he exclaimed: "Good heavens, Lilla, this room is insufferable; throw some of that vinegar about." Mrs. Ross smilled faintly; and taking a flexible tube from the mantlepiece, she pressed it, so that in a fine shower a finely scented aromatic vinegar diffused a refreshing perfume through the room. "That's better," he exclaimed, "Now, show me those pearls again. How much did you say they were?" "Four hundred guineas the suit," I said, hastening to lay them before him, "There, take them away!" ho ex claimed. "I can't afford four hundred guineas; four hundred shillings more likely. That confounded doctor is rurniog me. Let ma look at the watches; or, "stay, let me look at the pearls again. No; never mind. I won't have them unless you will take half the money. I bolieve you jewellers get most terrible profits. iShow mo the watches." I was hastening to place the half dozen I had with ma in his hands, when he exclaimed again: "Insufferable I Have you any more of that vinegar, Lilla?" . : Mrs. lloss nodded: and taking a cut-glass bottle Irom her pocket, she placed it with a handkerchief by his side. "No.no," ho said, giving me back the watches, "dprinkla the room with another of those tubes. Now, you! I'll have that little plain watch. I'm getting tired of this. Let me have a chaiu to match a fine one. mind the thinnest you have aDd that will do for to-day." As I selected four or five chains, after putting th.3 watch ande, Mrs. lloss took up aaothcr tube, unscrewed it, and then appeared to be taking especial notice of the chains which I bore across ;o the invalid. "Tncso are sweetly pretty," she exclaimed. As she spoke she itojd close to my side, when the icva'.id exclaimed, impatiently: "There, pray be quick, dear ;" and at one and the same moment he poured out tho contents of his bottle upon his handkerchief, and I felt t. fine spray of peculiar odor playing right in my nostrils. I started back, gaspiog and astonished, when, leapicj; from the coueb, the invalid exclaimed: "Good heavens, sir, you are unwell;" and he covered my faco and nose with the wet handkerchief, forcing me backwards into a chair. I believe that I struggled, but only feebly; for a strange, delicious, enervating languor was stealing over me ; I saw things mistily, but still with an understanding mind, seeing, though unable to move hand or foot, that the invalid was bending over me, while Mrs. Ross was hastily placing the various articles of jewelry in her pocket, i saw all that, but in a dreamy, untroubled way, for it seemed then not to be of the slightest consequence not to concern me. Then I bave some recollection of an intensly cold sensation as of water being poured upon my face, while my next impression is of hearing a closing door and the click of a lock. How long I remained in that condition I never knew; but by degrees I awoke to a feeling ot deadly nausea; my head swam, my temples throbbed, and everything I gazed upon was seen through a mist of dancing motes. But by degrees thoughts of tho present began to tako the place of the dreamy imaginings of the past. I started up and looked around, to find that I was still in the inner room: but the jewels the cases where was the invalid where Mrs. Boss? Was it true, or was it some strange vision? It wa3 impossible that 1 could have been duped like that. I ran to the door lastened. The other door locked on the out side. I darted across to the bell, but in doing so, caught my foot in the long table-cover, ana tripped ana ten, dragicg tho cloth on to tho carpet, and revealing the whole of the jawelcases beneath the table, just as they had been hastily flung. I could not help it then, for my brain was confused, and stooping down, I took the casos one by one, and opened them, in the fond bopo that I had been deceived, and that I should had the jewels sale; but, gave one ring, which had craped their notice, everything hal been taken. I sat oa tuo carpet . for a few minutes holding my throbbing head, and trying to recall the scene, but almost in vain, for it seemed as if a portion of my existence had been wiped completely away. I wa j showing jewelry at one moment, the next it seemed that I-was seated by the empty cases. I tried to cleat my faculties, but in vain; and I should think quite half aa hour ,had elapsed before thoroughly awakened to tho tact that I tad been robbed, I rung the bell. I had nearly arrived at the extent ot my loss two or three times, but only to have, as it were, a veil drawn over my sense!", just as if a relapsa were coming on; and then mentally blind, I could do nothing but rock myself to and fro, trying to get rid of the remains of the BtraDga stupor in which I had been plunged. Before the waiter could ascend I rang again. "Where are Mr. and Mrs. Boss? I inquired.

THURSDAY.

"Went out in a brougham some time ao, ?ir; and -your lunch is ready." , - "My lunch!" I exclaimed i "Yes, sir: the lunch they ordered for you." , "Oh. thank you!" I said quietly. i I'I'll ring again. Send my porter up in Gvo minutes' time." The waiter did cot seem surprised that tho doer was fastened on tho outside it had cot struck him then; but as soon a3 he had gone, I hastily repacked the empty morocco cases, - and as soon a3 possible made my int j

the street, and met the principal. "We were just getting uneasy, Mr. Willi3, and going to send after you. What have they taken?" "Everything, sir," I said almost fiercely. "What!" he exclaimed. I told all I knew, while he listened with blank amazement. Then follow-: ed a visit to police headquarters and to Moore s, to hn J that Mr. and Mrs. Boss had not returned; while eo impressed was the manager- with his visitors' respectability, that he laugh- i cd at the idea of there being any swindling transaction. 'They were most respectable people," he said;: "paid their bill last time without ti murmur; thair portmanteaus and boxes upstairs were all in their rooms ; and it wa3 all a mistake" "or something worse," he added with a dark look at me. " ; .",,.. m t . . ii . o.nat it was something worse, i was very soon evident, from the tubc3, 1 and bottles, and a wine-glass con-j taining a few drops of a limpid fluid, ! found to corroborate my story. .But though tho instruments of the de- j ception, even to a couple cf respirators, lined with wet sponge, were found, the depredators had mada their j escape, and were never f'onnd. !
