Paris, Feb. 25.-British secret SER
vice agents are keeping a close watch
on the Hindu colony here. They are
convinced that the anti-English cam
paign in India is being managed
largely from Paris, the terrorists
finding II easier, as the Russian revo-
lutionists do, to do their planning
beyond the reach of the authorities
they are fighting, while leaving the
execution of their projects to field
workers who are kept in ignorance
of all details of the general conspir-
acy except those relating to their own
special tasks.
A number of the earlier assassina-
tion plots are pretty well known now
to have been hatched in London. The
activity of the secret service agents
rendered the English metropolis so
dangerous place from which to OPP
crate however, that the conspirators
evidently decided to transfer their
headquarters to the continent.
A bureau was already in existence
in Paris, and some time ago It be-
gan to be noticed that the leading
agitators were disappearing from
London. Contrary to reports of Eng
lish government officers, and mes
sages sent out from India, the sus
pected plotters are almost all men of
high caste, excellent education and
apparently of considerable means. SO
far as observation of their movements
indicates, none OF the native Indian
princes, the preservation of whose
fortunes and authority depends large
ly upon the maintenance OF British
rule, are concerned In the movement

CUpid in the Summertime

the couple who are "twostng" Even then the girl should remember that there is many a heart won in the summer and discarded as soon as the leaves turn brown. It is all very well to choose the very handsomest man on the scene and put your own individual label on him 1t makes the other girls envious and gives you a certain feeling of elation- but 1t often proves a boomerang that re- bounds to your own discredit and unhap- piness-
 A proposal on a summer night under leafy bough is often the moon talking, not the man. It is very embarrassing to have man as your devoted attendant at the summer resort and then, in the en- suing winter when someone else you met at the resort happens to call upon you and inquire suggestively as to the health of that particular man, to be compelled to admit that you have not seen him re- gently, or to employ some quite appar- ent subterfuge to avoid the unpleasant question. Somehow, almost any man seems to give, promise of sterling mari tai qualities on summers night though If considered in that light on a winters evening he is not eligible or desirable In any way.
 Besides, as soon as a girl fairly throws herself at man, as many are inclined to do in the summer, the other men lose interest and the other girls become catty. On the other hand. it is anything but good taste for a girl to really put her self out in trying to impress the eligible masculine element present with the fact that she is fairly besieged with beaux at home who are fairly starving for a sight of her. Do not write your love let ters on the veranda for the especial benefit of the half-dozen or so men who anxiously and JealOusly watch you do so IL is all very hattering and nice for ones vanity, but it Is frightfully bad form and far beyond the pale of good taste. The foolish, minimizing chap may be spurred on to a sudden unh8sty act of proposal by such a display. but the man really worth while Is sensible enough to take 1t at its real value If he and the rest of the fellows are told exactly what chap you are writing to. aud how many letters he has written you in the past week without receiving an answer, etc. be will quickly see that his own letters might be subject for general discussion were be in the other fellows shoes
 Keep your own affairs of this sort to yourself and with the men at the resort to be good companion ever ready for a lark that does not exceed the bounds of sensible conventionality-un you are really in love with one of the chaps, and then there is no use giving you any ad- vice at all.

 So Mir. J. packed up his kit. assembled the four wee bass on q string and start ed for the trolley. but not before telling his angry Blossom exactly what he thought of her as a fisherman

Cretonne Furnishings.

@ HERE is nothing In the way of fur a nishlngs that gives the summery V touch quite so well as cretonne- and especially when 1t can be obtained in such varied and bright-hued patterns as are shown this season. Cretonnes of soft cOlOrings that suggest antique tapestries or chene silks will make GOV erings for furniture of the Louis XVI. style. The designs are pretentious in- deed this season. one of the newest for decorative motifs being the Bird of Para disc in cretonne. Floral patterns of pur- pie hue, wistaria and lilacs. on both light and dark backgrounds are being shown. The gorgeous poinsctte and roses. of pink, blue and yellow, are ef- fective on groundwork of tan or cream ivory.
 Various fruits also appear in the pat terms. apples or grapes. or both con- bined the former purple in hue and the latter green. being placed on groundwork of a soft tan color. As drapery, ere tonne is used this season for a border only and not for the entire curtain.

light. summery creations. Or perhaps it Is the almost universal letting down of the bars of conventiona!ity and the at times indiscriminating reception ot fellow -lOdgers at ones summer resort into the circle of acquaintanceship. at least. Whatever the cause. however. the fact remains that vacation time needs only the man and the maid to afford plentiful supply of Cupids victims.
 And right here 1t may not be amiss to pause for a moment and consider that acquaintanceship between man and maid, for a girl cannot be too discreet in her actions toward the male members of the little colony in which she Is spending the summer The average girl wants tC be popular. for there IS no place where lack of popularity will be more keenly felt than at the summer resort
 A large portion of the vacationists, lt not all os them. are fairly argus-eyed in discovering who's who when hearts are trunips among the young folks. And the girl who wants to have good time. without being talked about. has a decid- cdly straight and narrow road to travel. Somehow. the very atmosphere seems ore of fiirtatious contagion, and unless she minds her sentimental P's and Q's nest carefully the old gosslps. who sit in their armchairs on the veranda and tear and rend the reputations of those around them to pieces, will make her visit any thing but pleasant.
 Blessed and happy Is the girl. indeed, who does everything In crowds and Is just as willing to talk to any and every one of the male boarders. without prefer ence-even though she is not apt to gain a husband by doing so.

 "Oh." exclaimed MT. J., do you want to fsh?'
 Mrs. J. did. so Homer strnightway pulled in his own line and rigged up another for Blossom. making a balf-hour Journey back into the woods to find pole for her Then she insisted on using piece of bread as bait. disregarding entirely her husbands protest.
 Just as MT. J. had gotten his line over board again she was astonished to find that the bait was completely gone from her hook. Though Mir. J. explained that the water had dissolved the bread. Mrs. J. insisted that some big hsh-mnybe small whale-had nibbled 1t of1. This time she essayed a small piece of beef from a sandwIch-reassured by Mir.

 Twenty minutes passed-a fairly com fortable. though somewhat distracting. 20 minutes-for Mrs. J. persisted In pulling up her line every other second to see If the bait was still on the hook. Suddenly MT. J. was fairly lifted off his feet by scream.
 Homer, Homer! Help! Help.'
 And Homer's anxious eyes fell upon Mrs J.. terrified with the suddenness of the vision. desperately clutchlng her fish ing pole and gazing In absolute horror upon a wriggling, ugly, sQuirming catfish on her hook. He was landed and the hook extricated Mrs. ]. decided that she had had quite enough fishing for one day, at least.
 MT. Justwed breathed a sigh of relief as she settled herself comfortably upon the cushions and opened a magazine.
 For solid hour Homer tried to catch fish and answer Mrs Us insistent small talk and not totully ignore her questions. And in that hour he landed but two small bass and lost several all of which he laid to Mrs. Us excited suggestions while playing" them.
 Finally he told her attend to her maga- zines and stop talking. ThereupOn Mrs. J. became pathetically indignant and pre- served desperate. impressive. significant silence, not deigning an answer when Mir l. asked her quite casually if she were hungry.
