"We must take it home and consult our folks about it," decided Betty. "I'll ask papa  and you might refer the question to yours, Amy.

"What is that paper pinned to it?" asked Grace, as she took hold of it while Betty held the bank note by the two ends. "That's so--I forgot to look at that," said the finder. She turned it over.

"It's a joke!" declared Grace. "It sounds far from being a joke," spoke Betty, seriously. "Girls, there may be a grim tragedy here." "How romantic!" sighed Mollie. "What shall we do with the money?
