To tie white ribbon on a brides

1t Means good luck for the newly
married pair to keep the route Of their
wedding trip a secret
A yellow garter knit by q friend, and
presented as a surprise. and worn upon

wedding within a year.
If a bride wears upon her wedding
day some article which her mother
wore at her own wedding she will be
Insured many years of married life.
If a maiden or widow holds the we'd

CHAPTER x.


AN their way to the hotel Brett,
~ yielding apparently to a mo-
mentary impulse. stopped the
cab at q house in the Rue du Chaussee
d'Antin. Without any explanation to
Lord F%airholme, he disappeared into
the interior. and did not rejoin his COM
panion for nearly ten minutes.
"It is perhaps not of much use." he
explained on his return. but I do not
like to leave any stone unturned. The
man 1 have just called on is a we'll
known private detective. and I can
trust him to look after my business
without taking the police into his con-
f1dence. Two Of his smartest agents
will maintain a close watch on both
the Cabaret Noir and No. II Rue Bar
bette during the afternoon"
'sYou do not seem to expect much re-
sult?"
NO; we are tracking some Of the
most expert and daring criminals In
France. It Is hopeless to expect them
to provide US with clues; they simply
won I 10 II. NO OD6 Dut u 6cliluo "a
criminality would have risked such a
dramatic, move as the p%ersonation of
Jack Talbot, or dared to put In an OPEN
appearance at the Grand Hotel. So my
agents here can only hope, at the best,
to get sight of any messenger or as
sistant scoundrel who may turn up at
either of the places indicated"
May we expect to be busy tonight
Brett did not answer at ance. 1t was
evident that whilst he ratified on In a
careless strain his active brain was
busily employed in discounting the
future.
II hope So" he said at last. "Of
course 1 cannot tell. Our only chance
Is that we may be able to guess the
course of the hidden trail. If tonight
does not yield us some information, our
chances of solving the mystery will be
remote. in which case we may as well
abandon the quest"
This faint-hearted reply naturally
surprised Lord Fairholme considerably.
To his mind a considerable measure OF
success had already been achieved, AMI
he utterly failed to understand why
his friend should take such a pessi-
mistic view of affairs at the very mo-
ment when they appeared to be open
ing up somewhat. Brett noted the
earl's perplexity, and smiled with
genial depreciation.
do not be afraid, Fairholme; I wiz
liberate Mr.. Talbot n clear his mans
so effectually that all difficulties will
disappear from the path of your mar
riage."
Then what is 1t that makes you sc
downcast?" cried Fairholme.
II hate to be beaten at the final
stage, and 1 have a premonition that
were / in England-had I but the
power to proceed unchecked and
unhindered by officialdom-I would
soon lay my hands on the man
who originated the Albert Gate
mystery. But we are in France
in a country of queer legal forms and
unusual methods. At home l can al
ways circumvent Scotland Yard; here
l am In the midst of strange sur
roundings. and know not what may
happen. Therefore, we must possess
our souls in patience and wait develop
ments. The agent 1 have just employed

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.


Scratches on furniture a be re-
moved by rubbing with a wooden rag
dipped in boiled linseed oil. The var
nishing may then be done with shellac
dissolved in alcohol.
For black eyes or bruises rub a little
butter on the place. or. better still, lay
a rag stepped in arnica lotion, or equal
parts of gin and water, upon 1t, and
keep 1t wet. The arnica lotion may be
made by mixing twenty drops of the
pure tincture with water.
Ink stains on silver or plated articles
may be effectually removed without in
jury to the articles by making a little
chloride of lime into a paste with water
and rubbing the stains until they disap-
pear. and afterwards washing the
article with soap and water.

DAHL FASHION TALKS
A GRACEFUL EVENING GOWN.
BY MAY MANTON.


VENING gowns that are made of thin materials simply treated
are always the preferred ones for the spring and summer
season. This model is graceful in the extreme. The gown is
made from one of the pretty new organizes and is trimmed with m
broidered banding and ribbon. The skirt is one of the most graceful
OF the tedIn- sort and can be made with the trained skirt or to clear
the ground, as liked; also the upper, or tunic portion, can be left free
as indicated In the small view. Really there re two skirts in place
OF one. The bodice includes sleeves of the prettiest possible sort, with
the round neck that is SO becoming and SO we'll liked for simple ma
terials OF this sort. 1t also can be varied, however, for it can be made
high at the neck with long sleeves if preferred. All thin materials are
appropriate, marquisette and vone would be charming so made, crepe
de chine suits the model admirably well and there are a great many at
tracuve and inexpensive silk and cotton mixtures on the market that
would be excellent for this design. For the trimming any fancy band
ing can be used, and the season is prolific of beautiful ones.
