fist taught the warden on the point OF

corridor of the prison opened. and Sig
nor P~etrossnni, accompanied by one OF
the guards, entered the Warden's
office. The masked man glanced around
at them, and with a motion of his
head indicated the door leading to the
street. They passed through, closing
the door behind them.
For a little time the intruder stood
staring down at the still body, then he
went to the telephone and called police

BY MAY MANTON.


Sv HE bathing suit that is closed at the left in front in Russian
style is me of the latest and best liked. This one includes dart
fitted boomers that mean perfect smoothness over the hips and
is both smart and simple. The tunic is made with blouse and skirt
portions in one and is laid in tucks over the shoulders. 1t is just com
fortably low at the neck and is very easy to adjust in addition to its
other advantages. Black brultantine with trimming of black and white
silk makes the combination illustrated, but bathing suits this season
arr being made from the silk that is especially prepared for salt water
use and from pongees, a we'll as from such heavier materials as bril-
nantine and serge. For the trimming either contrasting material or
banding can be used. Black salt water silk is handsome and a favorite
and is pretty trimmed either with black and white or with color
Plain natural colored pongee trimmed with foulard is smart and we'll
liked and there are, indeed, various novelties of the kind in vogue.
