arrived at a hotel in the Avenue de

engaged the best suite of rooms. In which
her husband was to join her shortly.
After an expensive lunch in her apart

car came with q respondent chauffeur.
and she drove TO a dressmaker's, where
she ordered a quantity OF clothes to be
ready that very evening. From there she
went to a lingerie shop and ordered piles
of garments. These were brought to her
hotel, where she went through them. re-
jecting some.
Having selected what she would keep,
she went downstairs Ito get change from

WAITING at the Hotel,

She offered her car to the dressmaker's S
son. who drove off in 1t to the hotel with
the bill. which her husband, who must
by that time have arrived, would pay.
while she took a cab with one of the
dressmaker's girl assistants to carry the
parcels.
The dressmaker's son, on reaching the
hotel, found only the lingerie shop mes
senger, who was growing uneasy. The
two rushed in the motor to the dress
maker. where they breathed again on
learning that an assistant had accom-
panied the customer. But the girl came
back alone and crestfallen.
1t was evidently all up now. She had
been sent to buy bag of sweetmeats,
while the lady waited in the cab. When
she came out the cab had naturally gone
with the parcels and with the distinguish
ed officer's wife, who had got neatly OFF
having thus swindled dressmaker. a
lingerie shop, a motor driver and a hote
keeper between lunch and tea ume.
