garrison had relieved me IN some meas
ure from that torment of personal
worry which had bounded me before
vet the trouble had only taken another
form, the more heavy for being less
selfish. I was inside the mystery now,
in action If not in knowledge. What
the root of the matter might be, l
knew no better than before: but some
how. l had been quite sincere in saying
thai l did not really care. 1t was as
il the nerve of curiosity had been
blunted in me through overstrain, And
1 knew now that come what might,
Lady had begun to care for
me, and that left little In the
world which for myself / could
fear. Only for her l feared
everything; and the necessity of her
remaining here at the mercy of dangers
which I could neither dispel nor under
stand was too heavy a burden for my
frivolous enjoyment of adventure. I
could not say 30, nor try again to per-
suade her away from the fight. AS
her way was, she had dropped my in
terrupted protest into no~thingness, as
though 1t had never been; and my
only comfort was the hope that, know
ing how wholly my blindfold loyalty
to them all was for her sake, might be
a secret help to her.
Beyond taking care that one of us
three men should be always in the
house, we did nothing, so far as /
knew, except to await events passively.
Dr.. Reid, of course, went daily to his
office, where he remained often until
late In the afternoon; and Mr.. Tabor
though I understood that he was re-
tired from active business, made two or
three all-day trips to the city. What
they might be doing to safeguard us
from Carucci or in affairs more init
mate to the situation, l could not guess.
At any rate, my own periods of guar
dianship were generally lonely; for Mrs.
Tabor was still too shaken by our re-
cent alarm to be much out of her
room, and Lady made occasion of shop
ping to accompany her father. Per-
haps | was touchy, but 1t seemed that
she avoided the strain of being long
alone with me, skating IN thin ice
above emotion.
Mrs. Tabor had gone to lie down after
luncheon, and I was trying to forget in
a book the prospect of a long uninter-
esting afternoon within doors. when
the telephone in the den across the hall
began to ring. 1 hurried across, with
an irritable impulse to shout, yes, I'm
coming" and pick it up.
"Hello!" drawled the little voice.
who is this?"
/ gave the number. with n mental
reservation concerning some unknown
persons telephone
YES, know; but who's there? Who
is this speakink?"
This is Mr.. Tabor's house." said I
sharply. do you want some one in
particular, or will you leave a mes
sage?" II may have been partly the
voice which annoyed me; a thick, soft
voice unnaturally sweet in it's infec-
ton; a voice like the caress of a fat
hand. l thought there was a trace of
foreign accent, but hat might be
imagination.

OSTRICH FEATHERS.


No two are alike.
They must be fluffy.
Quality cannot be too fine.
A poor plume is an absurdity.
Ornaments simply must be orna-
mental.
An ostrich plume is not an actual
necessity.
In dress that which isn't necessary
should be exquisite.
Besides an ostrich plume is designed
for dress wear and that only.
Long plumes are curled snugly
around hats, the fluffy end rising
aigrette fashion,
Two or three half-length plumes are
likely to slant backward and upward,
or from the right front to the left
back.
A quarter-length plume often points
straight upward, being set on at the
back of the chapeau, and usually a
little to the right.

Gray Hairs Quickly Banished;
DdndruH, Failing Hair Stopped

A feeling of sadness accompanies the
discovery of the first gray hairs, which.
unfortunately. are looked upon as her
aids of advancing age. Gray hairs,
however, are not always an indication
of advancing age, for many people
have gray hairs quite early in life. OF
course, it is unnatural and indicates
that there is something wrong with the
individual and that Nature needs as
s~istance in correcting the trouble. The
same is true of hair that is constant
~ falling out and becoming. thinner
every day. If everything is right with
Nature, the hair. even in compare
lively elderly people, should be long,
thick and glossy. without even a streak

Under the bank commissioner the
state bank examiners are to be

such districts, giving each examiner
