The knights of the days Of chivalry
were so well protected by their armor
that they were practically invincible
to all ordinary weapons. Even when
dismounted they could not be injured,
save by the misericorde, a thin dagger,
which penetrated the chains of the ar
mors. In more than one battle knights
fallen from their horses could not be
killed until heir armor had been bro
ken up with axes and hammers.

more becoming than when the jacket is
made longer and the waist line not so

Large and small buckles ar used fol

Problem Of the Phantom Auto.

jacques futrelle, and that wonder
full Thinking Machine in which he con
fides, relates in the Sunday Magazine
of next Sundays Journal the sFProb-
lem of the Phantom Auto.'' Yarbor-
ough was a wide expanse of country
estates and superbly kept roads,. The
Trap was singularly tempting,aa per-
fectly macadamized road lying between
the two tall walls, with only enough
OF a sinuous twist in it to make each
end invisible from the center. The
Trap was an ideal spot for curbing the
ambitions Of Marlborough residents for
ecilpsing all speed records in autos.
With a man at each end of the. Trap.
with telephone communication between.
the Marlborough constab!es had reason
to congratulate themselves. But the
Phantom Auto changed all this. One
night it came into the Trap at sixty
miles an hour. The man at the other
end waited twenty minutes and failed
to see it. The next night the same
thing happened. The problem was still
unsolved when Hutchinson Hatch, the
reporter, laid it before Professor van
]Dusen, the Thinking Machine. His
logic easily solved the, problem that
seemed impossible to detectives. It
was all so simple that it set everybody
a-laughing when the phantom auto was
no longer mystery
