Wounon Tn .Janpn.

A japanese lady's visiting dress often
costs 5000, not including her hairpins,
which are always most important item.
AS the fashion never changes, both dress
and pins are handed down from mother to
daughter. In each city the women wear
color peculiar to themselves. In Tokyo
1t is blue in Kioto slate gray, and SO on.
Japanese women have strange ideas of
adding to their beauty. They shave of
their eyebrows and have penciled ones
with an exaggerated arch. They paint
their lips vivid crimson, with a patch OF
gold in the center, and their faces a chalky
white. The peasant girl of course cannot
afford all this decoration and must be con-
tent with her own rosy cheeks and tanned
skin.-Tokyo Letter.

THAT'S LEFEBRY." ~
upon askance by strangers. One night
met person in the cigar store who
interested me considerably. He was
q Frenchman, and as 1 spoke French
easily he felt at home with me, and we
had quite conversation. We talked
of number of things, and when he
finally left. the keeper Of the cigar
store whispered to me;
"That's Lefebry."
"Lefebry?"
RsOf course, knew who he meant, in
stantly.
"A fellow-countryman of ours" he
said, by way OF explanation; "bloods
thicker than water. You are q
Frenchman, aren't you?"
| nodded my head but did not an
swer, preferring not to forswear my
own country---a sin which no ono
should unnecessarily commit.
'Lefebry," the name sounded like
music to my ear. felt as If partially
under the influence of an intoxicant.
My heart quickened and sent the blood
humping to my brain cells.
Lefebry was the man for whom the
London police had been searching for
weeks, in the belief that he had mur-
dered woman over in the Eastern dis
trict.
My silence caused the cigarmaker to
look anxious.
''You wouldn't attempt to do him
any harm, would you?" he asked me
earnestly In French.
Harm" l answered, almost too
dazed by the information to make
more than mechanical answer.
"Oh, certainly not; I'd rather do
him good, If that were possible" I
added promptly, observing his alarm.
HE is in disguise, OF course" con-
tinued Lerocq, contidentially, sand no
one would ever recognize him; but l
have known him for years, and he has
come to me to get the money with
which to buy ticket for America"
"Where is he going to in America"

where all the steamers run to, and he's

Lefebry cares to go as my servant I'll
