There’s kleptomania, foi instance.” I “Stealing things?" “Yes; only we doctors don’t speak oi » It that way. We know the difference between an uncontrollable impulse when the mind is slightly out ot balance and vulgar, sordid theft’’ “H’m!’’ “A kleptomaniac nearly always takes something for which be has no or for which he could pay without feel fag It if he did happen to want it” •Ah!” “That’s kleptomania.” “Do the magistrates and juries nsuai ly call it that?” “No And 1 believe that sometimes a person morally innocent, but guiltv In the opinion of the law. suffers pun ishment when he should be placed un der medical treatment.” i “Well, doctor. 1 am glad of one thing -that if 1 have inherited any mental weakness it does not take the direction of thievery”— “Kleptomania,” corrected Dr Wii loughby. “All right. Call It what you like But I would rather be a liar than a thief.” He paused. “At least 1 think 1 would Either of them is detestable ' “You are not likely to be troubled to iecide between them, my dear James.” laughed Dr Willoughby “In the first place, an uncle is not like a direct an cestor—your father, son example—and again, it was only wlk>n your uncle gave way under the sVain of over work”— \ “Overwork?” broke in Janies Clune) violently, stopping in his walk as if he had been shot to face the doctor “That’s it! Nervous breakdown! That Is what you said?” “Exactly.” Dr. Willoughby was be coming Impatient of his triend's ob stinaey. and be spoke shortly. "Dr. Willoughby, I think this mar riage should not be allowed to go on.” “In the name of heaven, why?" roar ed the doctor. “Why?” echoed Cluney in a voice al most as loud as the others. "Don't you realize I have been working like a horse to straighten up my affairs so that I can leave my business for the four mouths I intended to be away ’ from .New York on my-ha. ha!—my j wedding tour? Anti can't you see that t I’m run down fyid am in my uncle's 5 exact condition when he was stricken? ; I feel even now as if I should have to ' go outside and proclaim that I am the s emperor of Germany or Lillian Russell j- or—or—somebody, just for the pleas ure of uttering an outrageous lie. Oh. I’ve got it! i know i have!” “Don t be a fool. James,” said Wil loughby, with the familiarity of a com rade. “1 never knew you to tell ade liberate falsehood in your life.” “I'm glad of it. Rut that doesn’t say 1 may not begin now ” “Fudge! You’re not in the slightest danger You’ll be thinking next you’re a kleptomanic.” “No, I'm not afraid of that I have too much contempt for that sort of thing. But the other- this awful dis position to disregard the truth—thats what I fear" Dr. Avilloughby picked up his hat and bustled out James Cluney put on his hat and stuffed his white gloves into his tail pocket Then he drew his hand out of the pocket in a hurry, tloves and all. and again dived in A’hen his hand came out this time it held a valuable lace doily, which he recognized as one he had admired at a house he had visited the last after noon on which he had worn the clothes he now had on. For a minute or more he stood with the doily in his hand, staring at it va cantly. Then he put it on the table I and examined the elaborate initial worked in one corner. “Yes, it’s a ‘V.’ This is the thing Mrs. VanZoon showed me and said it had cost SSO before she had her initial put on it Deuce take the thing! How [ did it come into my pocket?” • He rambled up ami down, trying to ; remember. Suddenly be slapped bis ■ right fist into his open left hand and swore softly. Then he placed the deli cate web of lace carefully in his desk and locked it “I’ll have to get this back to Mrs > VanZoon and explain it the best wav I can. I wonder what I was thinking about. Probably 1 wasn't thinking at all. Hello! Willoughby has left that gold mounted fountain pen of his on the table." Mechanically he placed the fountain pen in the upper pocket of his white waistcoat and took up his hat. gloves and overcoat just as Willoughby came in. “Hurry, now. James. The taxi is at the door, and you haven't too much time. You’ve got to be at the house at least half an hour before the ceremony to talk over things with your new fa ther-in-law and the bride’s sisters.” “Is that the regular thing?" “Always,” replied Dr. Willoughby with the confidence of one who had never been through it “By the way did you see anything of my fountain pen? I think I left it on the table." “Did you?” asked Cluney absently “I wonder how my new sisters will like me when they get to kifow me , well." “I wonder what can have become of that pen?” grumbled Willoughby, look ing about the floor when he did not find his property on the table. “What do you think, Cluney?” “I don’t know what to think.” was the reply, for James Cluney’s mind had left the fountain pen and was fix ed on his approaching marriage. “1 certainly thought I left it here.” went on Dr. Willoughby. “Well. I’ll have to i?t it go. but I hate to lose it [ It’s a very good one. and it was a | present too. There have not been any servants or strangers up here since 1 i went out. have there.

Some such estimate of the Carr fam lly and their wedding was in the mind of the young girl whom Jack Duogan had called Neil as she ascended the brown stone steps to take her post tion as lady's maid in the employ of Mrs. William Carr. A suit case was in her band. The young lady who bad let her in was too full of her own affairs and her sister's, who was so nearly mar ried. to take careful note of the new lady’s maid's manner She mereli said: “I'm the brides sister You know that we have a wedding here today?” "Mrs Carr told me yesterday. lam -.v wait on the bride- Miss Madge ” •Yes Well, you may call me Miss caniline Our other sister is Miss Jva U “Yes. Miss Caroline.” “We have had a little trouble with our servants, and there was no one to answer the door. That is why i came,” volunteered Miss Caroline, as she led Nell into the library overlook ing the rear garden. "Wait here a few minutes. Mother will come and give you full x instructions.” Caroline Carr flounced out. her laces raising a perfumed zephyr that Nell sniffed appreciatively. while bei thoughtful gray eyes appraised every bit of finery and jewelry worn by the self saLsijed young lady. “Jack womd figure her worth about !'D. 1 should say.” murmured Nell of the downcast eyes, as Caroline dis appeared. "There's a solitaire ring on her finger worth about $75, and her gown and shoes and bracelet would probably fetch $75 more. That pearl comb in the back of her head is phony.” Nell made these calculations accord ing to a formula given to her by Jack ■? W' *>:-VsiW' wSwh ■J t.-A'l’ ■ V?:'■ v'X.- '■.■qh..'

It looked vtry much ike the one he bad shown the detective.and Douglas Jamison at the Grand He tie.:! it up • . <• ui>- eves of Carolitie and smiled broader than before Nell as well as Caroline was miznm xt.'adfastly at the packet.

He threw the paper that had inwrap ped the packet into the itastebaskec Then he placed the ring in the box, closed it and put it m the pocket ot his light overcoat, which he laid on a chair i near the table. Nell watched these op 1 eratious steadily, and yet whenever Caroline hajipened to glance m the lady's maid's direction the gray eyes were always cast down at the carpet,! and Ne,l seemed to be patiently wait i ing without seeing anytHing around • her. “I know K must have cost an awful 1 lot.” said Caroline. "Yes. But now look here. Caroline.' Not a word of this to any one.. 1 want; it to come as a great surprise.” “I won't say a word, father. Madge has the most beautiful wedding pres-, ents.
