HEN Lollta was married she
bade her friends a tearful
farewell and went. to lire at
me other side of the world
Lollta, merry, wealthy and wise, had al
ways Deen a favorite at the academy,
"Write often, dear," she said, cling
wg to Helen, "and wear this littlo
locket which I hare designed, that
you win not forget me. May my wish
come JUe and "success ever attend
yoa'1 ' : r
' The loctet was a equare golden one,
ana a turquoise rorgetmenot with
diamond center decorated the cover,
wmcn new open when one pressed
any 'spaing, disclosing the words:
FmmJLolUgL. Success Attend Ton.1
' Letters passed between the two girls
ntsx; but now, after three or four
TearsMt 'was ofletf with feelings of
deep compunction that Helen would
write to her long neglected friend,
while the locket glistened at her
throat Then one day It slipped from
Its golden chain and changed the
course of Helen's life. Though late
In November, the weather was delight
ful, and she decided to walk through
the park on her way to the library.
xne bright sunshine tempted ber to
rest for a moment upon a park bench,
and it was not until she had selected
a book at the library that she noticed
the chain hanging empty and retraced
ber steps, searching all the way for
the little charm. A young man was
Sitting upon the bench which she had
so lately vacated, a big blond man In
a gray tweed suit He glanced up at
her as she approached, then continued
Writing hastily In a notebook. Helen
looked at him for a moment startled
aid then relieved, for a silk fob was
dangling from his Watch pocket and
from it suspended lie own little lock
et Evidently the man bad clasped It
there awaiting the return of the own
er. Helen seated herself upon the op
posite -end of the bench and regarded
nlm furtively." How could she tact
gully open the subject
. "Pardon m5 said the man, rising,
hat h-and. ''Have you -lost any
tblngr "Tee, Indeed," Helen told him. "I
dropped a square gold locket here a
short time sgo.. Involuntarily her
eyes sought his fob.
Why. 'thsf s toO bad," said the man
gefllnJiy. -lUioarmeito help yon look

She stood amated as he searched the
gravel with his cane and even remov
ed the heavy bench, going down upon
his knees to look beneath It "Seems
to have disappeared," be said, rising
flushed and troabled. "It has evident
ty been picked up.' Was the locket
very valuable?"
. 1 wouldn't have parted with it for
anything In the world," she said em
phatically. : "Well. IH tell you what to do," said
the man, resuming bis seat "advertise
In . the papers and offer a reward
Some one may bring it back."
Helen eat down upon the bench quite
bewildered. Burely the man could not
flaunt the locket before ber very eye;
In that manner If be were guilty. Per

Whan Helen was dressing for Mrs.

one is wild about his tenor voice, and
he has consented to slug for us pro
vided I find an accompanist Iiftme
fllately I thought of you, my dear."
"Why, certainly I will play," said
Helen and followed her hostess with
a sigh of relief.
Maurice Malcolm bowed low before
ber with a look of adoration In his
dark eyes. "So kind of you." be mur
mured. And Helen soon became ab
sorbed in her music, forgettiug ail else
save the wonderful voice whicb-echoed
through the room. When the applause
had ceased he bent over her.
"It is you," said he. "who have made
my song a success."
But Helen was staring Incredulously
at the forgctmenot charm suspended
from his silken fob. "Who gave you
that locket 7" she demanded curtly.
The singer straightened suddenly and
looked surprised.
"I beg your pardon," he aald coldly.
Then she smiled.
"It is such a beautiful design," she
said and held out her hand. "May I
see it 7"
Unclasping the locket be laid It in
ber palm. "Would you mind if I
opened it?"
The singer smiled. "It took me some
time to find the hidden spring," he
said. "Allow me to show you bow."
But her finger unaided had found I
the spring. Her friend's name with
Its curling "TV and the well known
motto were dancing before her eyes.
"Mr. Malcolm," she said quickly,
"this Is strange; a friend gave me the
very counterpart of this locket several
years ago, and I lost It today In the
park."
"That was Indeed unfortunate," said
the singer. "The owner of this Httle
charm desired me to wear it this even
ing. She baa had It for a number of
years."
Helen's fingers tightened about the
locket as tbe man held out his, hand
to receive it
Mrs. Tom came toward them, a bevy
of laughing girls In her train. "Mr.
Malcolm," she called, "come and be
Introduced." The man hesitated. "If
you please?" he said peremptorily,
looking at Helen.
Reluctantly she surrendered the
golden trinket and turned away. Per
haps Mr. Bryce bad not deceived ber
after all. She was strangely pleased
at the thought and decided at least
to tell him of ber new discovery. She
found him sitting in a secluded corner,
screened from view by palms and
plants and apparently lost in gloomy
meditation. Helen joined blm uncere
moniously.
"I have seen it again," she announc
ed. His face brightened us .she en
tered.
"I am afraid I do Dot understand
yon," be replied.
"Mr. Malcolm is wearing my locket
she explained, "Inscription and all
Did you give It to blm T
"I never saw tbe man before," be
said solemnly. "He has probably been
fortunate enough to And your lost
charm and will return It to you."
Helen shook ber bead. "He says It
Is not mine! She looked up at blm
meaningly. "I suppose It has been
loaned to blm for an occasion.' "
'See berel" said Mr. Bryce indig
nantly. "Be ought to give a better
explanation. Ion wait here for a few
moments while 1 bunt the fellow ap

Tbe girt seemed to bare forgotten
her animosity toward Mr. Bryce.
"How good yoa are," ana said, and
the look hi ber eyee waa flattering
But when be returned bla face wore

Mr. Bryce spoke very alowly. "He

His tall figure blocked tbe passage.

for ber to pass,

to te lost from view in one of tbe
large office buildings.
Ber mother met ber at tbe door
when she returned late in tbe after
noon. "A gentleman Is waiting to sea
you, my dear," sbe said.
Helen's heart beat rapidly. She was
prepared to welcome Mr. Bryce sod to
forgive him for Ignoring ber condi
tions, but tbe expectant look left ber
eyes as sbe entered the room, for It
was the singer who bowed low before
ber.
"I am more than pleased." he aald,
"to be able to restore your lost proper
ty."
Bbe looked skeptical. "There must

Mr. Malcolm smiled. "Will you kind

"Then this Is not tbe one you wore?"
Helen asked.-
"It la not" the singer responded
coldly and vouchsafed no further In
formation. For a few moments sbe exerted ber.
self to be entertaining and thanked
him gratefully ' for bis trouble whea
he left but In ber heart was a great
disappointment "He can never come
now," sbe sighed, and ber thoughts
were of the blond young man,
Sbe was playing a sad little tune
that evening when the maid uehsred
Mr. Bryce into the room. Eagerly abe
advanced to meet bun. "I am so glad."
sbs aald, "that yon did not wait to
bring tbe locket"
He seemed punted st ber change of
manner. "But I nave brought It be
announced triumphantly and placed

Helen sank Into tbe nearest chair
and regarded him with suspicion. Then
she laughed. "Tbe city must be full
of them," sbe said, placing tbe two
lockets with their duplicate tnacrlp-
tions before blm. Tbe man looked
dazed. "Mr. Malcolm recovered this
one by advertising. Now 1 would like
your explanation."
For a moment they looked st each
other, then Joined in laughter. Pres
ently be came and stood before ber.
"I did not intend to make a confes

when crop time came my counselor

I had purchased a sort of combine,

Brown gave me an unwritten vol
