gazing across the pavement. They
chance to be in front of a cafe chan
tant, and, as in numerous other in
stances, several tables are placed in
and outside the doorway, where seat
ed in the shade, men and women can
sit and sip their wine or coffee while
they watch the passers-by.
At this particular point man can
be seen-a man who would certainly
attract attention in his native city of
Mexico, and certainly does here on
the boulevards of Paris-a man whose
figure is of a magnificent build, and
gives promise of remarkable strength.
This person disdains to doff his ma
tive garb for the sober black of the
Partisan lounger-he has the appear
ance of a Spaniard, with his broad
brimmed hat, his gold-lace embroider-
ed Jacket, trousers wide at the bot
tom and slit open, to be laced and
show the fancy boot-tops underneath.
The man who sits in front of the
cafe returns Dicks stare-there is
sheer written all over his dark face.

The two friends pass on. Sheriff
Bob has taken notice of certain facts
that arouse his interest, likewise his
curiosity.
"A Mexican, that's dead certain,
and he doesn't appear to fancy you
very much. Possibly you have met
before?" he remarks.

who waits and lives in the hope Of
having a chance at me-"

bull-fghter, the man I've heard you
speak of, the man who ran against
you once upon time and got decided

THAT is Tordas, the best bull-fghter
and all-round athlete of Mexico. Do
you notice his splendid figure?"

sun did you ever manage TO worst

well, though not his equal in
strength, I've learned several tricks
at boxing and wrestling that serve me

He gently closes the door, resumes
his seat, and PUTS his finger on an
electric button. Almost as quickly
as a jack-in-the-box leaps into view
when the lid flies back, door opens
and the assistant steps into view.

Again the great project of Paris,
gay, wicked Paris, sits alone; his
head is lowered and his eyes trace
the closely-written lines in one of
those wonderful tones that contain
the lives of all the principal people of
the civilized world, and especially
the good and bad alike within the
gates Of Paris.
At length he closes the volume and

Words Used But Rarely.

A philologist was talking about
words. There are over 225,000 words
in the English language" he said.
'but we only use a few thousand OF
them. The extra ones are no use TO
us. Any man could sit down with a
dictionary and write in good English
a story that no one in the world
would understand. Here, for instance,
can you make head or tail of this?'
And the philologist battered Oh
glibly:

Though the atabal Is dern, still will

Then he translated:

comfortable while sauntering along
the boulevards.
Thus they continue their walk for
some time, admiring the scene, LOOK
ing upon scores of lovely faces, and
the most elegant of toilets. Carriages
roll by, containing other sightseers.
Many of the nobility Of Europe are to
be seen here, for Paris has especial
attractions for them.
Our friends know very few In all
this great mass of people-it is rath-
er a strange feeling that comes over
one when gazing upon tens OF thou
sands, to think that all are utter
strangers.
Dick suddenly raises his hat as
carriage rolls by, and bows with I'M
usual grace.
"Ah. the Senorita Lopez-out for
an airing with her gentle father, the
Don. How the old fiery Mexican
scowled at you-it's plainly evident
he does not share his daughters ad-
miration for my chum," laughs the
sheriff, and Dick is compelled to join
in the merriment
"Perhaps he has learned OF my
share in the defeat of his mysterious
plans of the other night, where ruff
fans in his employ stopped the We
hicle in which Miss Pauline rode. and
right here in the streets of Paris.
That would not make him a very fond
friend of mine"
'If the senorita shows her claws
because you have fallen in love with
another girl, she will have firm ally
in her dad" remarks Bob, whose bust
ness in life has made him keen OBJ
server and a good reader of faces.
They saunter on, the sheriff keep
ing a bright lookout, scanning faces as
they pass. He has not lost all hope
of discovering his man, although all
he has to go by is an extraordinarily
poor photograph taken years before
when the missing Danvers was
smooth-faced boy.
Suddenly Bob, who has his friends
arm for the moment, as he speaks of
something he has become interested
in, feels the ex-horsetamer of the

Probably because his daughter Is

"You put it in too strong light

"My fancy has always been for fair

Thus they saunter on and converse

voices of fower-venders ring out.
laughter and goodwill appear to rule
the hour.

His comrade being quite willing,
they step in at the Cafe Anglais, and
partake of meal.
While they have eaten, darkness
has fallen upon the great city-an-

noon the gentlemen called at the
Grand Continental Hotel, hut 1t hap
