• a small, thin distic of white flI t, with
i a bole in the center through which a
( beaded cord of sluew-wes looped. 'I'be

ted and the whole surface MS -Wilted so

beads, made of very small segmenta
' porcuplue quills, were varlousty dyed,
!making a curiously gaudy show of
'colors. ,
"There now, ma chinas, Is something
worth arty times its weight to gofd."
said M. Ruusslliou when he prewuted
the necklace to his foster daughter
with pardouable self aattsfection. "It
is a sacred charm string giveu we by
an old heathen who would sell b1• soul
for a pint of cheap rum. He solemnly
informed me that whoever wore it
could not by any possibility be killed
by an enemy."
Atlee. kissed M. Ron.tillou.
"It's so curious and beautiful," she
said, holding It up and drawing the
variegated string tbrough her 1lnger.f
Then wltb her mischievous laugh ebe
added: "And lin glad it is so powerful
against one's enemy. i'll wear It when-
ever I go where Adrienne lffourcler is.
B ee if I don't!"
"Is she your enemy? What's up be-
tween you and la petite Adrienne,
eh?' 1l. Rousallton lightly demanded.
"Tou were always the best of good
friends, I thought. What's happened?"
"Oh, we are good trieuds," said
Alice quickly, "very good friends, In-
deed; I was but chaffing!'
"Good friends, but enemies; that's
how it 1s with women. Who's the
young man that's caused the coolness?
I could guess, maybe:" He laughed
e nd winked knowingly. ."May I be /0
bold u to name him -''t a venture?'
"Ten, 11 you'll be sure t• mention M.
Rene de RoDville," she gayly auswered.
"Who but be could work Adrienne up
Into a perfect greet' mist of jealousy?'
"He would need as accomplice. I
should imagine; a young lady of some
beauty and • good deal of heartless-
,
mess."
"like whom, for example?' And she
tossed her bright head. "Not me, I am
sure."
"Pob! Like every pretty maiden to
the whole world ma petite coquette.
They're all alike as peas, cruel as blur
jays and as sweet as apple blossoms."
He stroked ger hair clumsily with his
large band, as a heavy and roughly
fond man is apt to do, adding in nu al-
- serious tone:
"But my little girl is better than most
of tbem-not a foolish miscbief maker,
I hope."
Alice was patting ber head through.
the string of beads and letting the
translucent whit*. disk fall into her
bosom.
"it's time to change the subject."
said she. "Tell me what you have
seen while away. I wish I could go
far off and see things. Ilave you been
to Detroit, Quebec, Montreal?"
"Yes, I've been to all, a long, bard
