7 A marked feature of the present season is the novelties which are ap- bearing in the realm of fashion. Con- spicuous among these novelties may be mentioned the Japanese outline of the bodice, which is permitted to stamp its popularity upon the blouse, notably upon tho lace blouse which looks very well. indeed. under such conditions. I would quote a capital example made in combination of thick white guipure striped with lines of black velvet ribbon over a fine lace front. and destined to be worn with fine lace skirt bordered with coarse lace-a very good dress altogether. Besides this. would observe the addition to the lace blouse of more ordinary detail. of braces of ribbon, short wide sleeves of ribbon, and belt with sash ends of ribbon. Such ribbon could be chine with a satin border. This needs a slim figure for its best success, and those who are at all stout should trust themselves to the simpler belts of ribbon, kid, or leather. or striped gallon. This last is comparatively new. and is to be met with the buckle covered to match. The elastic belt continues to receive 1t supporters, and shines beneath the influence of gold and silver. It may also be found faced with velvet, and only under one condition could I be induced to recognize its plausible charms.
 But to proceed with my list of trifies. I comment with joy on the continued favor shown to the lawn and linen collar, recognizing that the former daily assumes a finer aspect and is traced with finer stitching, no minute details of design seeming to be too intricate to do it service. For the prodigal, summer blouses are made entirely of such luxuries as this finely embroidered lawn. costing no

 It was the first prayer that had vol untarily left his lips for many day. The boys heard. They interpreted it as an expression of sorrow that his own career should have been so cut of from their childhood and joyous youth.
 "well, cheer up. dad. anyhow" cried the elder, much relieved by this con- clusion. "we are all together again, and you can face the world once more with us at your side"
 No dagger of steel could have hurt so dreadfully as this we'll meant con- soIation, but for the sake of his sons the man wrestled with his agony and conquered 1t to some outward seeming.
 When the cab stopped outside a big building he was steady on his feet when he alighted. and he managed to sumufon q ghastly smile to his aid as be said to John:

 Certainly. father. Why noti It is all right as medicine. Willie, you go and get some brandy while I take fa- ther upstaiys."
 Their fiat was on the second floor. It was neatly furnished. fitted with electric light and contained five rooms.
 John talked freely. explaining house keeping arrangements. the ,puzzle as to their fathers sire, for the first bed they bought was a short one: their hours of work. the variety of their enploynent-any and every cheering topic, indeed, until N lille came with a bottle.
 Both of them glanced askarce at the quantity Mason consumed. but they passed no comment He tried to smoke and sat SO that the light should not fall on his face And then be said to them:

This quality of cashmere comes in small checks and other neat effects which look SO we'll with plain coat and skirt costumes. and which like SO many of the shirt-waists. is made with or dinary collar band. although this may be changed to suit the individual taste.

less than eight guineas; and perhaps their charm is only discernible to the expert, and nine women out of ten would be as content with the linen ba- tiste blouse, bearing hem-stitched tucks intersected with small satin stitched spots, and to these latter I confess I am much addicted, finding they look equally we'll with glace coats or cloth or serge.
 There are some pretty new models in glace coats, some taking the straight Japanese outline and being covered with silken braid. others be- ing in the paletot shape with belt at the waist and an embroidered lawn collar round the neck. and few black tassels on the front, and the sleeves striking decorative note. The most extravagant form of the glace coat. however, is embroidered all over with floss silk. and bears thickly netted silken fringe all round 1t.
 The three-quarter coats. fitting al. most tightly, and bearing no fullness in the basque, are suggestive of the Directoire period with their large but tons and the sleeves full on the top. but the absence of fulness on the skirt contradicts this impression to some extent.
 All the best of the new skirts are cut on the cross, with a seam down the center. and fitted tightly round the hips, while their decoration is either braid or flatly-stitched bands upon the hem and above 1t. Besides this. the trimming of the hour is embroid- cry, and our taste for 1t grows apace.
 I have just seen an advance sample of summer millinery. entirely made of embroidered batiste, this being work ed into the crown. and mushroom shaped brim, and simply trimmed with scarf of colored crepe de chine. I can look forward to meeting 1t again with much pleasure.

It is the recognized fact in Europe that American women are the most extensive wearers and the keenest critics of the shirtwaist, and for this reason they are constantly on the alert for new designs In that partic- ular article of apparel. The tailor made shirt-waist is, like all made-to- measure garments. distinguishable for It's smartness of cut and flt, and more and more are women appreciat- ing this fact. The two strong points in favor of the shIrt-waist are the null titude of shades and designs and cloths In which 1t may be obtained, and the comparative eheapness of this indispensable article of dress Freshly laundried, what looks fresher or more attractive than a well-made, EeIl-ftting shirt-waist- The shirtwaist worn by the lady to the right in our illustration above Is made in the gauze cashmere, which, being pure wool. Is absolutely unshrinkable.

 They all laughed. The cab was pass ing St. Thomas hospital. Across the bridge noble prospect met their eyes. London had glamour for Mason that night it never held before. TIT "So Robinson wrote to Bradley, knowing that would report myself to. day, and Bradley arranged"-
 "Who is Robinson, fatherT' inter rupted John.
 "The superintendent, to be sure. He used to be inspector at Whitechapel." "He is not the man we mean. We are talking of MT. Giles superintend- ent of the Mary Anson home"
 The two boys felt their fathers start of dismay, of positive alright. They wondered what had happened to give him such shock. Peering at him sideways from the corners of the han som, they could see the quick pallor of his swarthy face.
 You forget, John." put in the adroit William, that father knows as little about our lives as we knew about his until very recently. When we reach our fiat we must begin at the begin ming and tell him everything"
 .'There isn't much to tell" cried John. "When poor mother died we were talk :en care of by a gentleman whom MT. Philip asked to look after us. When the Mary Anson home was built we were among the first batch of inmates. If ever a young man has done good in this world, 1t is MT. Philip Anson. See what he did for us. Mother was nursed and tended with the utmost kindness, but her life could not be saved. We were rescued from the workhouse, taught well and fed well and given such instruction in first class trade that even at our age we can earn f5 week between us. And what he has done for us he does for hundreds of others. God bless Philip Anson, I say"
 "Amenr' said his brother.
 The voices of his sons reached Ma sons tortured brain like sounds heard, remote but distinct, through long tunnel. His great frame seemed to collapse. In an instant he became an old man. He set his teeth and jammed his elbows against the woodwork of the cab, but, strive as he would with his immense physical strength and his dogged will, he shook with palsy.
 Father" cried John anxiously, little dreaming how his enthusiastic speech had pierced to the very marrow of his nearer, "are you i'll? Shall we stop?"
 "Perhaps, John, little brandy would do him good" murmured Willie.
 Father, Go tell me what is the mat ter Willie, reach up and tell the man to stop"
 Then Mason forced himself to speak.
 "No, mo-" he gasped. "Go on. It is- only-a passing spasm."
 He must have time, even few min utes, in which to drive of the awful specter that hugged him in the em- brace of death. He dared not look at his sons. If he were compelled to face them on the pavement in the far ing gaslight he would run away.
 His anguish was pitiable. Great drops of sweat stood clammy on his

CHAPTER N

@ HILIP was thrown into the sea U on a Tuesday. Jocky Mason reached London on Wednesday \ and kept his appointment with Inspector Bradley on Thursday even ing.
 The inspector received him gracious ly, thus chasing from the ex-convict's mind a lurking suspicion that matters were awry. There is a curious sym pathy between the police and we'll known criminals They meet with friendiiness and exchange pleasantries. as a watch dog might fraternize with a wolf In of hours.
 But Mason had no responsive smile or ready quip.
 Whats upT be demanded morosely. "YOu sent for me. Here I am. would have brought my ticket sooner if you hadn't written"

And the wages of sin is death! The drama insisted on the full measure of Biblical accuracy. Altogether Grenier lay down to rest under unenviable con- ditions.
 He dreamed that he was falling down precipices and striking sheets of blue water with appalling splashes. Each time he was awakened by the shock.
 But he was hardy rogue where conscience was concerned, and he swore himself to sleep again. Rest he must have. He must arise with steady head and clear brain.
 He was early astir. His first act was to send for the Yorkshire morn- ing papers. They contained no news of Philip Anson dead, but the local sheet chronicled his arrival at York.
 This was excellent. The banker would see it. A few printed lines car " great weight in such matters.
 Then he signed the leases, dispatched them in a typewriter envelope and telegraphed:
 Documents forwarded this morning. Please meet wishes expressed in letter.
 Surely" he reflected, Abingdon will not give another thought to my proceedings. Philip Anson is not a ! boy in leading strings s
 He wired to Evelyn:
 Sorry for misunderstanding. Blue Atom must wait until my return.
 Here was a way out. Whatever that wretched speck of color meant, it could be dealt with subsequently,.
 But Evelyn's prompt reply only made confusion worse confounded:
 Delay is impossible The man has put off the duchess two days already.
 So man and duchess and period of time were mixed up with blue atom. He must do something desper- ate-begin his plan of alienation soon- CT than he intended. He answered.:
 Too busy to attend to matter further Going to Leeds today. Letters here as usual.
 And to Leeds he went Residence in York was a fever-a constant fret. In Leeds he was removed from the arena. He passed the afternoon and evening in roaming the streets, consumed with a fiery desire to be doing, daring, bray ing difficulties. .r
 But he must wait at least another day before he could lay hands on any portion of Philip Anson's wealth save the money stolen from his pockets.
 At the hotel there was only one letter and no telegrams.
 The London bankers wrote:
 We beg to acknowledge yours of yester- day. Your cash balance at date is s12,410 9s. Id. Your securities in our pos session amount to a net value at today's prices of about G92000O, including s250, 900 consols at par. We will forward you a de- tailed list if desired and will be pleased to realize any securities as directed.
 Kindly note that instructions for sale should be given in your handwriting and not typed.
 There was joy, intoxicating almost to madness, in this communication, but it was not unleavened by the elements of danger and delay.
 His signature had been accepted without demur. He could control an enormous sum without question. These were the entrancing certainties which dazzled his eyes for time.
 But it was horribly annoying that millionaire should keep his current ac- count so low, and the concluding para graph held bogey. not wholly unfore- seen, but looming large when it actual ly presented itself.
 The memorandum in Philips hand writing on Evelyn's letter was now
