Soon he could see the headlight
of the engine as it swung around
a curve, and, with wildly beating
heart he watched the train app
proach. When the engine struck
the slippery rails its speed slack
ened greatly, and before going
many feet further the forward
progress stopped altogether, and
the train began to roll back down
the grade, until brought to sud
den stop by the air brakes.
Rushing from his hiding place,
Hartman hurried along the one
Pullman until he saw curtain
raised. In the window appeared
the face of the woman he loved,
and boldly he stepped into the
broad beam of light and beckoned
to her to leave the train.
The curtain was drawn down
again and a minute later, as the
engine began its second effort to
climb the grade, Sadie Morton
stepped from the rear platform Of
the Pullman into the waiting arms
of her lover.
Quickly they ran to the buggy
tied at the roadside, and drove
rapidly away. They were nearly
back to the city, where minister
was waiting, when the engine,
amid a shower of sparks, pulled
across the crest of the grade, and
Mrs. Morton, ignorant of her
daughters departure, dreamed Of
the European trim ahead.

LONDON, March 1.-THE
countess of Warwick has again
the hard-headed British
business people, as we'll as shock
ed that exclusive element of the
nobility that scorns the very sus-
picion of being connected with
trade.
For Lady Warwick has been
quietly and successfully trading on
the London markets for some
time. She can afford to laugh at
all the hostile darts from her
critics, for the net gains of this
remarkable woman who snaps her
fingers at all forms and customs
of British MOBILITY amounts to ST.
100000, nearly all won during the
past few months. South African
mines. American railways and
securities in other parts of the
world have contributed to her win
nings, and she is now said to have
Sufficient investments in gilt
edged stocks to assure her a snug
income for many years.
Not only is the countess
|shrewd and successful in the
business world, but she is also
famed as the most beautiful wom-
an in England, as well as an ora
tor of exceptional ability, and,
strangest of all, an uncompromis-
ing, revolutionary socialist.
When still in her teens and be-
fore she married the earl of War
wick. Lady Brooke created a ter
rifle sensation by calmly announc-
ing that the homes of the exclu-
sive folks In London were the
scenes of gambling and other riot
GUS doings, and that the prince Of
Wales (now King Edward) was a
baccarat player who could hold his
own with the best professionals in
the game. That indiscretion earn
ed for the young woman the So
briquet of "Babbling Brooke"
But society forgave her, al
though she offered no apology,
and Lady Brooke married the earl
of Warwick, a direct descendant of
the turbulent old warrior who

U0DES UP To
HE Mill MUTE

Plenty of buttons continue to
trim skirts. Many of the new trot-
teur skirts fasten down the front
or button up the side. These are
easier adjusted than those which
open in the back.
The newest turban is named aft
err Robinson Crusoe. 1t has three
owl heads on the left side.
Jets are extremely fashionable
hat trimmings.
Jet spangled scarfs are draped
about the crowns of some of the
new hats.
Black velvet is the material used
for many of the new stocks. A lace
frill at the top and a lace jabot
are added. When the stock is of
lace a bow of black velvet is often
worn at the front.
One of the daintiest of the new
combination lingerie undergar-
ments is made the fine cross-bar
muslin. Narrow lines of beading
and lace edging are the only trim
mings.
