Biren, the jeweler's son, climbing into the bed of the Duchesse de Courlande and helping her to sign an agreement that he should be proclaimed sovereign of the country, as he was already of the young and beautiful queen, is an example of the happiness which ought to be given to their lovers by our four hundred thousand women.
And it was while we were out together that the cross she was wearing became unfastened and fell. I most clumsily, stepped on it, greatly marring the setting. "She was distressed, of course, but I said I would take it to a jeweler's and have it repaired without any one being the wiser. She agreed that was best. So I took it " "To Mrs.
Flirty hung up the receiver with satisfaction. The manes of the departed Dan might soon rest in peace! The next day, early in the forenoon, a young man with a small package carefully done up came to the Dodge house. "From Martin's, the jeweler's, for Miss Dodge," he said to Jennings at the door. Elaine and Aunt Josephine were sitting in the library when Jennings announced him.
He felt that mad, joyous organ spread abruptly, throughout his entire being. She rose up suddenly and turned to greet him. "Why Mr. Van!" she stammered, flushing rosily. "I heard you were in town." He came towards her quietly enough, the jeweler's box in his hand. "I called before," he answered in his off-hand way. "You must have been out with poor old Searle." "Oh," she said, "poor old Searle?
I watched a silver swan, which had a living grace about his movements and a living intelligence in his eyes watched him swimming about as comfortably and as unconcernedly as if he had been born in a morass instead of a jeweler's shop watched him seize a silver fish from under the water and hold up his head and go through all the customary and elaborate motions of swallowing it but the moment it disappeared down his throat some tattooed South Sea Islanders approached and I yielded to their attractions.
Useless as an ornament, it is the one absolutely indispensable laboratory metal, and literally hundreds of laboratories that need it can't have it because over half the world's supply is tied up in jeweler's windows and in useless baubles. Then, too, it is the best thing known for contact points in electrical machinery.
The jeweler's voice was suspicious. "I didn't at first," admitted Tom. "But when he said he was Mr. Barcoe Jenks, I remembered that I had met him when I was cast away on Earthquake Island." "And he says he can make diamonds?" asked Mr. Track. "What did he want of you?" and the jeweler looked at Tom, quizzically.
In a small box by her plate, with best wishes from Uncle Winthrop, lay a watch and chain, a dainty thing with just "Doris" on the plain space in the center that overlay another name that had once been there. It had undergone some renovation at the jeweler's hands, after lying untouched more than twenty years.
"Helen," said Betty, a spoonful of hot coffee held aloft in one hand, consternation hiding her dimples, "what in the world shall I do? I told you I hadn't studied anything, and I can't flunk now." "Oh, they won't call on you to-day," said Helen hopefully, counting the Dramatic Club pins that made Betty's shirt-waist look like a small section of a jeweler's window.
Blind as I am, I stop before a jeweler's shop windows. That passion was the ruin of me; I took to gambling to play with gold. I was not a cheat, I was cheated, I ruined myself. I lost all my fortune. Then the longing to see Bianca once more possessed me like a frenzy. I stole back to Venice and found her again. For six months I was happy; she hid me in her house and fed me.
