LATE MILLINERY.

Blue must be reckoned as a fashion

dark shades-principally French blue
and sapphire.
Several shades of red promise almost
as well. They are all tints of a vivid
dye, whether of the peony, ripe goose
berry or poppy varieties. Bright deep
pink and cerise are also in demand.
In spite of this marked preference for
gay colors the trade is we'll provided
with black velvet; still, it is likely to be
used less than might have been expect

not much asked for by the best houses.

looked in the old days!
For with a flash of her old audacity,
aided by her perfect knowledge of the
house, and the bunch of household keys
she had found, which dangled from her
girdle, as in the old fashion, she had
disinterred one of her old frocks from
closet, slipped it on, and loosening
her brown hair had let it fall in rip
ping waves down her back. 1t was
Susy in her old girlishness, with the in.

rangement of her short skirt over her
pretty ankles, and the half conscious
pose she had taken.

servants again-and you didn't come

away, and just rampaged free! It
seemed to me, don't you know, not as
if I'd just come-but as if I'd always
been right here-and it was you who'd
just come! Don't you understand?
Just as you came when me and Mary
Rogers were here-don't you remember
her, Clarence, and how she used to do
'gooseberry' for us!-well-just like
that. So I said to JIM don't know
you any more-get!' and just slipped
on this frock and ordered Mannela
around, as 1 used to do-and she in fits

And then I thought of you--perhaps
worried and flustered yet over things
and the change, and just slipped into
the kitchen, and told old fat Conchita

apron, land brought 'em up to you on

was still open as if she had taken some
thing from it as an afterthought. There
were letters and papers there-some of
his own and some in Capt. Pinckney's
handwriting. 1t did not occur to him
to look at them-even to justify himself
or excuse her. He knew that his
hatred of Capt. Pinckney was not SO

his sudden conviction that they were

For once Susy had not exaggerated.
Capt. Pinckney was lingering with the
deputy who had charge of him on the
trail near the casa. 1t had already
been pretty well understood by both
captives and captors that the arrest
was simply a legal demonstration, that
the sympathizing federal judge would
undoubtedly order the discharge of the
prisoners on their own recognizances
and it was probable that the deputy saw
no harm in granting Pinckney's re-
quest, which was virtually only q delay
in his own liberation. 1t is also possi-

Mrs. Tooley is now the picture of health,

realize that she was at one time SO near to
death. But her testimony is unassailable,
and she is very earnest in her desire to
spread the good news 10 other sufferers.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain, in a
CONDENSED form, all the elements necessary
to give new life and richness TO the blood
and restore shattered nerves. They are
also a specific for troubles peculiar to
females, such as suppressions, irregularities
and all forms OF weakness. They build up
the blood, and restore the glow of health to
pale and sallow cheeks. In me- they effect
