It is the history of such a scheme. ruined by such an oversight, that I will set down in the tines that follow. One morning T w -as instructed by my chief at hearkq,uar-ters tar go to the of- flce of ,J3hn Pelln,ythorpe, in Golden Square, to inquire into a forgery case. I at onee took may oteps to the office named, and, after it short delay, was shown into M4•, Pennythorpe's room. ',He was a genii'Wooking, (-lean vhav- en clan of some 35 years, and he rose to greet ane with it smite. "Good Morning, Mr- Blake," he Haid, as he motiOned me do a chair. "i am glad that ,you have came so promptly. for there has been some bother over a ohpc'k of mine." I prepared to listen to the details and he oontd•nued : "Last Monday I re- ceived lroNm the bank the usual paid cheeks I%hich they are in the habit of rieturning to me every month, There w+er•e fifteen in all, most of them for Kznall sums. One of them, however, WHa for no less an amount than £500, and directly I looked at it 1 knew that it was a forgery. "The signature anti the bopdy of the check were etpPtarently in my own hand- writing, but ors I,had not drawn any- thing like such a sum for months past. I !knew of course, that; the business was a fraud. T at once communicated With the managers of the hank and also with Scotland Yard." "You seem unnecess•irily agitated," I reunarked, after a pause, "for after all the bank, T Presume, will bear the loss and not your's•2If. In the case of forgeries the hank is always liable." "Quite se, quite Hoyhe returned. "I myself do spot lose a penny, trot what agitates me is the knowledge that I must bare a forger near me, for no- body but a man intimate with me could have so gauged the amount of my ao- count.

T'he bank ]las tree ed me very bonora.bly, and has written already to say that my .account has been credited with the £500 in ques- tion. My intereat, therefore. in find- ing,the forger is purely from the point of view• of justice to the bank, Doubt- less, if the scoundrel is discovered ini- meldiately, Howe of the money may be refunded." No doubt," I returned, quietly ; "and now, .perhaps you will he good 'enough to let me sere the check, alHu a check bearing your genuine signa- ture,'• lie took from a drawer In his table a couple of checks.

No. There w•a.s no noticeable dif- ference. 1 scrutinized the forged check with the aid of rr><ty glass, but the mag- nifying process elicited absolutely no- thing. "This is the must strikingly clever forgery that I have ever come across," I said, after a pause. "I do not won- der that the bank peOPle were de- ceived." . "Nor' I," he made answer, "for upon sty word I myself should have been taaken in by so extraordinary an imi- tation- And now, if there are a.n • de- tails I can give you Which may be Her- vioeeable, Pray command me."
