Jam es Dodd had been nn employee
of the botwa of W alfour & Qo., the
Bond street diamond merchants, for
a period of fourteen years before he
w as made assistant m anager and given
charge o f the unset stoues.
For tw o years after he had been
given charge of the gem s Jam es Dodd
w as simply w a itin g .^ H e yueant to Jill
his pockets w ith plunder and skip. l ie
was methodical and cold blooded, lie
would not make the m istake so many
others had. H e would make none at
all. Step by step be prepared for the
coup. H e must change his looks, his
gait aud his voice. An nctor taught
him the art of appearing t o .b e ten
years older.
Some one else taught
him that by holding a ¡»each stone In
bis mouth he could alter the tones of
his voice. A shoemaker made him a
•hoe for a deformed foot, aud for
more than 300 nights he walked
the streets w ith il.
It gave him a
limp aud a lop shoulder. He tested
these things in the severest way. In
his disguise he went boldly Into the
■tore as a stranger mad made pur­
chases of men who had known him for
years and years.
Three months before the affuir w as
ripe Jama*« Dodd had his every plan
laid. He woo Id not flee abroad, ns
others had done and been overhauled
alm ost at once. l i e purchased n book­
stand not five blocks aw ay. He pur­
chased an old house to live In. He se­
cured a housekeeper. He had worn
his w ig a hundred .times. The shoe
for the deformed foot had a caglty In
the heel. The diamonds hidden away
there would alw ays be at hand. At
closing tim e One day the event came
off. Uncut and unset diamonds to the
amount of £20,000 were carried home
In his pocket. An hour later be had
taken possession o f his new quarters
under another name.
The ‘‘diamond m ystery" made a
great sensation. The house believed
In the honesty of Its em ployee; the po­
lice believed he had skipped. Three
or four days were lost In discussion,
and then a reward w as offered and the
sleuths let loose. They telegraphed to
•very port In the empire. They gave
notice to all the steam ers that had
■ailed. They had every constable In
•very village on the watch. If Dodd
had com m itted five cold blooded mur­
ders the hunt couldn’t have been fierc­
er. It dragged Into days and weeks
and months. It was discussed -over
and over In the press and In every
police station and barroom In th e la n d
A young man who bad lived a life
beyond reproach for fourteen years

been employed and disappears from the

leave his boarding house that evening.
No one saw him on the street; He
had not gone abroad by nny sort of
c r a ft H e had not taken a trnlh for
any point w lthia the empire. While
he w as directly In charge of the gems,
the manager or either one of the part-
ner^biid access to them. The detec
tlv e^ fig n r c d It out that Dodd must
surely be the guilty party, but n large
elem ent o f the public shook their hyaihe
doubtfully and made com m ents that
put others In em barrassing positions
After six months the hunt w ib
abandoned. It xvas the general opln
Ion that Dodd Was dead by accident or
suicide.
Meanwhile' the bookstand
flourished. Its only attendant day by
day w as Mr. Cooper, Its owner. The
only one to ¡»enetrate the old house l»e-
hlnd It w as the aged housekeeper, and
she went to her own home o’ nights.
The public had been buying books of
a certain man fo/-years. One day lie
dropped out of sight and a new man
stood behind the counter. There w as
a moment of surprise nt seeing him, a
question or two, perhnps, ns- to the
other, and then business went on ns
usual. That's the w ay with the pub­
lic. The old goes and the new come'’.
There were no newer or better lsmks
There was ne change lti prices. There
w as nothing to call for discussion.
D etectives loafed away a quarter of
an hour at the atnnd. Em ployees of
the house of Walfour & <\> turned up
there alm ost dally. All sorts of men
stopped there. For weeks Mr. Cooper
heard his case discussed, but it w as
rsrely that he had a word to say. Boon
after the bookstand changed hands a
little girl tw elve years old lH*gan to
pass that way every day with her fa ­
ther’s dinner. By nnd by she and Mr.
Cooper began to nod aud smile to each
other. Sometimes she would stop and
chat for a minute, and sometimes be
handed her a penny. She told her fa ­
ther of thf»e things, aud be whs
wroth, but after walking around to the
stand one day and looking the man
over he decided that there was no
harm In him.
A year lacking a few days had gone
by. and It wiib midwinter again, when
one day na the girl passed the stand
tw o dogs began fighting In her path,
Mr. Cooper hurried out to kick them
apart and make a aafe pnsaage for her,
but In doing so he allpped and fell nnd
rolled off the narrow walk In front of
a van and waa run over. There were
tw o or three minutes of excitem ent,
and then be w as taken awfey to the
hospital aud the doctors found him al­
ready dead. Mr. Cooper waa known
by name, but of course bla clothing
w as overhauled. Aa the shoe for the
deformed foot Waa removed It was
seen that the heel w as turned a little.
A m inute's Inveetlgattlon revealed the
fact that there was a cavity and In
that cavity fhe diamond* stolen from

WHEN DEN
CAME HOME.
Vesta sank wearily upon a shoe box
and gated forlornly about her. The
last of the packing was accomplished.
The last nail had been driven home
Into the she« box, which contained the
books that were to be kept out for the
new home. The rest of the beloved
library remained In the cast's, gaps
show ing where the selections had been
made.
-
*
The corner of the lowed shelf had
been the resting place of the blue and
silver "Pilgrim's Progress” ever since
Vesta could reuiemlier, a book to be
taken out Sunday afternoons and car­
ried to the gentle mother, who patient­
ly explained time after time the m ean­
ing of the fascinating woodcuts.
There w as, a very large gap where
the encyclopedias had been. She bad
bought those with the eggs and butter
money. As her eyes roamed over the
partly filled cases she could fill every
gap from memory.
And as It w as with the books, so was
it with the rest of the household be­
longings. Here and there a blank cor­
ner reminded her of som e fam iliar ob­
ject now stacked In the wood shed.
Very little w as to be shipped, for the
way wiis far and freight rates w’ere
high. Tomorrow the neighbors would
gather aud John Berw lu would hang
out the re d H ag.
By nightfall the
house would be emptied and Its con­
tents scattered through the furmhouses
for miles around.
Tears cam e unbidden to V esta’s
eyes as she looked about. Her earliest
memories were of the homely living
room x. itli It« rag carpet and the com ­
fortable rocking chairs on either, side
of the W ove in winter or standing In
front of the north windows in summer,
whtrtJ the double sashes were takeu
down and the wind blew through the
house, softly scented by the blooms
from the orchard on the other side of
the well kept fence, j
ft waa-tke only borne Vesta had ever
known. It seemed to the tired girl
that ship could never learn to love an­
other,'half so well.
Until her mother’s death Vesta had
been shielded from all troubles. After
she lin’d come back from the little
Jfojlda. The sun had long since dropped
below the hills, but the girl’s over­
wrought Imagination could conjure up
the scenes of the past. She leaned
upon the rail and looked1 out across the
fields, now bristling with the frost
kissed stubble. She could see aguln
the glories of thq w aning day. She
could alm ost hear a voice whispering
In her ear.
Her hands clutched the rough bark
of the wood as In memory she lived
over that night when she bad sent Ben
Folsom aw ay because she thought It
her duty to remain with her father and
console him for his loss. She thought
of the sharp fared woman who was
sitting opposite*»!in at the kitchen ta­
ble discussing their new home iu the
west, and then she thought of the gen­
tle faced woman who still lived lu her
daughter’s heart, if not in her hus­
band's.
So lost w as sbe in her thoughts that
she never heard the quick tread of nn
approaching pedestrian nor heeded his
presence until a brown hand closed
over her slender fingers.
“Did 1 startle you?" demanded Ben
as she started back w ith a cry. "1
was on my way to your house. I got
In this afternoon and heard the news.
Do you want to go fo Canada, Vesta?”
•‘I would rather die,” she murmured
passionately.
"It Is like a second
burial to go aw ay aud leave mother
up there on the hill al, alone.”
‘‘And your father?” he asked gently.
"Do you still feel that he needs you
more than I do?”
‘•n ow much do/you need me?” she
demanded qhyly.
"So much that I have come alm ost
across the continent to ask you again
If you will marry me,” he declared.
"I have done well out w e s t - f a r bet­
ter than I anticipated. I can buy the
farm. Perhaps w e can arrange with
your father to buy the furniture, too,
and—w e will make a new home where
the old one was. Are you willing,
dear?”
‘‘Not for the sake of a home!” said
Vesta, softly, “but liecause you want
me, Ben, and—liecnuse I want you, too,
dour.” , . -

efforts to make her father forget his

nnd
f,,rt him In 111« sorrow
Ben bad gone w est nnd sbe wns left
more than ever alone. Then had come
that terrible day. a year nnd a week
after her mother's death, when her
father bad driven Into the yard with
Sadie Connors, who had been teaching
school over nt the corners, nnd bad
aunouncetl bis marriage.
Vesta tried to learn to love this
gaunt, bustling woman, whose every
trait wns the antithesis of the woman
win .e place she took, hut the new
Mrs. Brewster bad repulsed every ad-
ti.nj married to be rid of them, nnd she
treated 'th e stepdaughter with senut
courtesy.
The w ays of the household were
amended to suit her radical tastes.
The old rockprs were sent to the attic
as too old fashioned and two upbolster-
ed«. m oastrvsltiea had taken their places.
The other memorials of Vesta’s mother
quickly followed the rockera to the
garret, nnd the house was completely
changed In appearance, ns were the oc­
cupants In their attitude toward each
other.
And now even the old huiuestt*»-'
wus to lie given up. The fertile farm
was fo lie sold nnd the houaebold gooda
to lx* auctioned off. Mra. Brew ster
had decided that the northw est offer­
ed greater opportunities for her hus-
baud, nnd they were to move to Mani­

Mrs Brewster bustled Into the room,
“Come and eat som e supper,” she com­
manded. **Dnu*t alt there looking an

I’ve done tw ice ns much ns you have
today, nnd 1 got the supper, too, but
I don't look half ns tiled as you do.
Stop mooning here In the dark, ano
come out and have a cup of tea.”
"I dou’t feel like eating,” answered
Vesta, the sobs rising In her throat.
To this woman the abandonment of
the home m«4iiit nothing. She could not
understand what It meant to the girl.
Mrs. Brewster turned away.
“You'll be hungry by nnd by," abe
said sharply. “There’ll 1 m * som e cold
things In the pantry, but I'm hot going
to make any more te»i”
Blip bustled out and left Vesta to her­
self. Wearily the girl rose from the
box nnd left the- house. Hhe could
hear her father laughing and Joking
with her stepmother, nnd the noise of
mirth fell ‘offensively upon her ears.
The d jJ; was deepening to dark and
the nlr was chill, but Vesta did not feel
the need of a shaw l. She wandered
down the road, past the white gate to
the little bridge that spanned the creek.
Here she loved to lean upon the rail
