The Louis XIV. style is more than
apparent in many of the new gowns.

back rapidly from the waist line in the
skirt. is of quaint coralcolored bro
cade. the ends OF the skirt part knot

the middle of the back falling in with

There is no girdle at the front, but
there is at the sides and back. The

short sleeves have deep lace frills.

Where had Olive yanstone gone?
Stephen Ruthen's mind had been ex-
ercised by that problem since the
morning Of the previous day, when he
had come down stairs to find that
Olive had left the reetory as strangely
and abruptly as three years ago she
had gone out of his life. without hint
Of explanation now as then.
This morning had brought him. by
the merest accident. a clue to her dis
appearance.
"She has gone away with Anthony
Strangways."
That much Stephen knew now. An
thcny Strangways, the friend of Bon
holt Hume. who had indeed been the
guest OF Hume for some days before
olives flight. had met her at the rail-
way station at Fellsgarth that night
and Travelled with her in the London
train.
The merest accident had brought
him that knowledge: the casual NE
mark Of an. acquaintance with whom
he had stopped to speak in the street
at Fellsgarth that morning. who had
seen the man and woman at the rail-
way station. and. having no suspicion
but that the rector was aware of it,
had mentioned the fact Incidentally
Olive had gone away with Anthony
Strangways.

The cubs, which are about half

the basement of the station. Several
weeks ago a patrolman say an old

covered the entrance to the burrow.
A squad Of officers. armed with
shoyeis and gun. found four other
entrances to the den. They com.
meneed digging in spot as near the
center as possible, leaving man on
guard at each hole. One tiny fox
made a dash for liberty, but was
caught and Immediately made friends
with his captor. When the den was
finally opened the remaining six were
huddled in one corner.
The place was Uttered with feath'
ers, fish bones and other evidences
of the energy with which the mother
fox must have hunted to feed her

larder. II is thought that the cubs
