Three Points About Shoes.

There are three points about shoes style,
comfort and economy.
Without a reasonabse compliance with
the dictates of fashion you appear odd and
attract unfavorable attention.
Comfort is induced by securing shoes that

even pressure.
Economy results from kuying honestly

That's the first time I have ever
heard what they were," he replied
"kitwater a missionary! You must
forgive my laughing, but the idea is
too ludicrous. I'll admit he's done a
considerable amount of converting,
but it has been converting other peo-
pies money into his own pockets"
He laughed at his own bad joke,
and almost instantly grew serious
once more. He was quite at his
ease, and, though he must have
known that | was familiar with the
story. or supposed story, of his vii
lainy, seemed in no way ashamed.
"Now, Mr.. Fairfax" he went on,
II know that you are surprised to

think you will be when we have had
little talk together. First and fore
most, you have been told the story

II know that you robbed my clients

that you should not, for there's more

No! We obtained them honestly

reason I secured them in belt

A HAREM-SCARUM TIME.
man Duchess In a Family Circle
of Tunisian Ladies'.

Ladies contemplating visit to the
Barbary States would do well to in
form themselves by reading recent
book, "Tunisia and the Modern Bar
barry Pirates" by Herbert Vivian, M.
A., to which Mrs. Vivian has contrib
uted chapter describing those seclud-
ed parts of oriental dwellings which no
masculine visitor is permitted to en-
ter, and the etiquette prevailing there.
In a harem, as in occidental centers
of femininity, the costume of lady
visitor is source of interest and curl.
osity When Mrs. Vivian paid calls the
whole family would gather round and
pluck at her things, but on the whole
she came off very we'll, the Tunisian la.
dies contenting themselves with polk
ing and patting her gently and discus
sing her raiment-cost, cut and cloror
with each other.
So exalted parsonage as the duch-
ess of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha was less
fortunate. The gentleman who ar
ranged for the duchess visit to the ha-
rem of an old Arabian friend said to
the man:
"The lady who is coming to see you
is the daughter of the emperor of all
the Russias, and has married the son
of the English queen"
The old man was too polite to show
incredibly; but when he saw little
lady dressed in ordinary English
clothes, he was quite convinced that
he had been hoaxed
ga great princess" he said to him
self, could not possibly go about ex-
cept attended by larger suite and at
tired in brocade or cloth of gold"
The ladies of his household were APP
parently Of the same opinion, for the
duchess came out of the house terri
bly, disheyeled; they had pulled her
hair about, taken the combs out to
look at them; tugged at her dress to
see how strong the material was, and
even attempted to undo it to see what
she wore beneath.
The duchess was immensely amused.
"But," she declared, "now that have
seen one harem, l am quite satisfied,
and have no desire ever to visit an
| other"

HOUSE WE USED TO LIVE IN

The house we used to live in looks at us
So wistfully as we go driving by;
The wind that makes its near tree muir
murous
Flies swiftly after with entreating sigh
Come back! come back! we hear it low
implore.
Lift up the grass-choked gate, the earth
stained door,
And enter in your childhood's home once
more.
All, no! let US make merry with light
speech
OF newer days and push the past aside
Close to that door the baby used to reach
Inc Knob and play with it-before he died !;
lie used to sleep on the broad window-sill
A sunbeam in his curls-no, not that hill
This level road. Drive fast-oh, faster still.
How small it was. Before the birds are
grown
They lie so warmly in one tiny nest;
But all the world is theirs when they have
flown,
And foreign roofs replace the mothers
breast
All, well-God careth See, before us now
The ampler home beneath lofty bough
Lift up the saddened heart and clear the
brow.
For In that empty nest beyond the hill
Are blessed shadows at immortal ease;
The sun-crowned baby on the window-sill.
The happy children underneath the trees.
Old house, look not so piteous. Thou art
OF larger lives the very sweetest part;
The first love of the unforgetting heart.

panion.

CHAPTER TX

AT the moment that | saw Hayle
enter my room, you might, as the
saying goes, have knocked me down
with a feather. Of all that could
possibly have happened, this was
surely the most unexpected! The
man had endeavored to get me out
of his way in London, he had PLAYED
all sorts of tricks upon me in order
to put me off the scent, he had bolt
ed from England because he knew
was searching for him, yet here he
was deliberately seeking me out, and
of his own free will putting his head
into the lions mouth. 1t was as
astonishing as it was inexplicable.
Good morning. Mr.. Fairfax" he
said, bowling most politely to me as
he spoke. 81 hope you will forgive
this early call. l only discovered
your address an hour ago, and, as 1
did not wish to run the risk of losing
you, l came on at once"
"You appeared to be fairly desir-
GUS of doing so last week." l said.
What has occurred to make you
Jun illiiAu ~ SuuucIly
GA variety of circumstances have
conspired to bring such result
about" he answered. 81 have been
thinking the matter over, and not
being able to determine the benefit
of this hole-and-corner sort of game,
[ have made up my mind to settle it
once and for ALL"
81 am glad you have come to that
way of thinking" l said ''It will
save us both an iniinity of trouble.
You understand, of course, that l rep
resent Messrs. Kitwater and Codd.'
II am well aware of it," he replied,
land in common fairness to myself
| can only say that l am sorry to
hear it,
May | ask why you are sorry?"
Because you have the honor to
represent the biggest pair of scoun-
drels unhung," he answered. "And in
saying this | pledge you my word
thar | am by no means overstepping
the mark. / have known them both
for great many years, and can
therefore, speak from experience"

first time. Let me conduct you to
my dressing-room. where you will
find all that is necessary for your
makeup
He thereupon showed me to
room leading out of that in which we
had hitherto been sitting. 1t was
very small, and lighted by means of
skylight. Indeed, it was that very
skylight, so he always declared, that
induced him to take the fiat.
III this room looked out over the
back, or front, it would have been
necessary for me either to have cur
tains, which 1 abominate, or to run
the risk of being observed, which
would have been far worse" he had
remarked to me once. Needless to
say there are times when / find it
most necessary that my preparations
should not be suspected"
Taken altogether, it was room
that had strange fascination for
me. l had been in it many times be-
fore, but was always able to discov-
er something new in it. 1t was a
conglomeration of cupboards and
shelves. A large variety of costumes
hung upon the pegs in the walls,
ranging from soldiers uniforms to
beggar's rags. There were wigs of
all sorts and descriptions on blocks,
pads of every possible order and for
every part of the body, humps for
hunchbacks, wooden legs, boots rang
ing from the patent leather of the
dandy to the toeless foot-covering of
the beggar. There were hats in
abundance, from the spotless silk to
the most miserable head coverings,
some of which looked as if they had
been picked up from the rubbish
heap. There were peddlers' trays fit
