When I hid finished my careful inpeotion of th '"hinc-.e vas which' na i -en l ft me as a pr c.ous le-j gaoy by my little mother I -Keidedj not only that it was the ery thing' I needed in which to hid th" im-: r-crtnnt r-'T'"' r.iy fathor h'i4 intrust-1 -d to me. but th it 1 could a'.- con tinue keeping in it the perennially' fre.vih blossom with which I had sr'in-. plied it dnee my mother's d"ath.j With hands trembling from -cit-' mnt I tried a little, preliminary ex-' periment. Into the bottom of the vase, through the slender neck, ij pushed down with the button-like I jcnob of a hat pin a piece of absorb-j ent cotton. Then I insetted into the n-ck of the vase one of the empty', metal pencil cases I had boaght off the spy masquerading as a peddler. To mv intense jrratineatioi-! if not too large for the. opening1, and.; thanks to the absorbent cotton, it! came to rest on the bottom of the vase without any click. Shaking the vase also failed to produce anv noise.! and I began to breathe more freely. I tilled the vase nain witli water, put back the flower, and then hold ing if to the light, looked it over carefully in the fear that some shad ow through its wonderful coloring would betray the prcsenr of the alin thing inside it. Hut its ap pearance was exactly the same as before. I was sure that no one would ever dream of looking inside it. So far, so good. My next problem! was the extraction of the pencil easel whenever I should wish to do so. Tho Very Tliintc. To test It I took out tho flower aain, emptied the water, and turned! the vase upside down to see whether by any chance the pencil case would fcllp out again, something I wished to guard against. Hut there wa.s no sign of its appearance, and I pro ceeded to the last and most crucial Mop of my experiment, the thought of which had made the idea of the vase possible in the first place. One of my favorite childish pas times waH experimenting with mng r.ets or different kinds. Jack liic kett, my brother-cousin, who was the playmate of my childhood, shared my enthusiasm, and many a hippy and absorbed hour wo spent with our treasures. Neither of us ever quite, relinquished the. childhood hobby, and Jack used often to bring me queerly shaped magnets he had picked up in his travels. Katherlne Honnot, his tbmoee, and my friend, knew of thin hobby which we shared find when I had last ao'en her she lad laughingly handed rue a small parrel. ".'nek asked no to give this to o:i when I should next sec you." she .said. "If I couldn't hae him collect something diffeieri than that stuff 1" Who Has Seen? Her oice was full of playful .-corn, v. hich did not datura me in the 'ms;, for I knew it was but teasing raillery. I drew from the package a magnet such as I had never seen before. - long slender bar wi:h a ju-er looking cap or protector on the end. ".Tack says "if you keep that pro tector on it the tiling will stay mag-' r.etized for many a long year," his I retty fiancee said, eying the magnet with pretended disfavor. "Look at her, Lillian. She's ns pleased as if Jack smt her a box of roses." "He may keep the rost-s for you. my d-u" I aid placidly. "For my part. I much prefer the magnet." "Ail wight, ittle dirly dirl. Go jay wif nice play sing!" Catherine mocked, anil the incident had ended. Uat I blessed Jack's remembrance of my childish predilection as I took the queer looking- bar from my desk, demoved the protector from it, and gently inserted the magnet into the vase. (Mick! The sound told me that the metal case had been drawn to the end of the magnet, and in an other second, magnet and pencil case lay upon my bed. Even with success" assured I stood for a mom ent shaking as with a chill. The remembrance of the immln-1 ence of Dicky's home-coming roused me. His train must be late. I thought for to my excited imagination the time I had spent in experimenting with my vase seemed almost hours. I looked at my watch, and to my as tonishment found that the whole proceeding had occupied less than five minutes. I still had five minutes before time for Dicky to come home. Pe.ping inside che pencil case in which I had put the oiled silk in closed message to be sure I had the right case I fastened it securely, put it into the vase, filled the vase again with water, put in the carnation I had taken from It and replaced the vape upon my dressing table. Then I locked the other pencil cases and the magnet securely Jn my trunk and turned to my mirror to fee if my hair was disarranged. Then it was that a slight scratch ing noise outside my door tartled me. sent the color from my face as I stood confronting my image in the mirror.
