Mr.. Grimm giance- around at him,
and with a slight motion of his head
summoned two men who had been
chatting nearby. One of them was
Blair, and the other Hastings.
Take this man in charge" he di-
rected. Hold him in solitary con.

Don't talk TO him, don't let any one
else talk to him. and don't let him

crime, but a single word from him
nov will endanger my life"
That was all. 1t was said and done
SO quickly that Howard, dazed. con-
fused and utterly unable to account
for anything. was led away without a
protest. Mr.. Grimm, musing gently
on the stupidity of mankind in gen.
eral and the ease with which it is
possible TO lead even a clever indi-
vidual into a trap, if the bait appeals
to greed, took a car and went up
town.
Some three hours later he walked
briskly along a narrow path strewn
with pine needles, which led tortu-
ously up TO an old colonial farmhouse.
Outwardly the place seemed to be de-
serted. The blinds, battered and
stripped of paint by wind and rain,
were all closed and one corner of the
small veranda had crumbled away
from age and neglect. In the rear of
the house, rising from an old barn. a
thin pole with a cup-like attachment
at the apex, thrust its point into the
open above the dense. odorous pines.
Mr.. Grimm noted these things as he
came along.
He stepped up quietly on the YER
anda and had just extended n hand
to rap on the door when it was open
ed from within, and Miss Thorne
stood before him. He was not sur
prised; intuition had told him he
would meet her again. perhaps here in
hiding. A sudden quick tenderness
lighted the l~istless eyes. For an in
slant she stood staring, her face pallid
against the gloom of the hallway be-
yond. and she drew a long breath of
relief, as she pressed one hand to her
breast. The b~lue-gray eyes were
yelled by dropping lids. then she re-
covered herself and they opened into
his. In them he saw anxiety, appre-
hension, fear even.

bowed low over the white hand which
she impulsively thrust toward him.

ING ONE DOLLAR PER HUN.
DRIED BUNDLES.

Corn fodder, a commodity not seen
much these latter years, is coming to
the local market now The fodder is
selling at a dollar a hundred bundles
which is about fifty cents a hundred
pounds, the bundles being about two
pounds each at this time of year. The
fodder is clean and bright and gener-
ally good. 1t is expected that there
will be an unusually large amount of
this forage on the markets this year
owing to the scarcity of other forage
crops.

Grade-Handsom Block In Town
Mondays Daily.)

Every day shows vast advances
made on the new buildings of Dob
bins & Ewing, Woodbridge Company
and McKennon, Anderson & Foster.
The laying of joists for the third floor
on the Dobbins & Ewing building was
commenced Friday afternoon and fin
ished Saturday. Work for laying the
joists for the third floor Of the Nc
Kennon, Anderson & Foster store
was commenced Saturday afternoon.
From the present indications it
would seem that the roofs will be on
the buildings by the middle or the
goth of this month, and just as soon
as this is done and the electric wir-
ing can be done a double force will
likely be put to work and the work
will be carried on at night the same
as day.
From the present outlook Decemb-
or the first will find the handsome
block of buildings completed, and
when done it will be the handsomest
block of buildings in any town Of the
s,ze in the South. The cornish on
10 new buildings will be much larg-
er than that around the Hotel
Bethel, this alone will set the build
ings off to great advantage.
The furnishings for the interior of
the buildings will be much nicer
than in the old stores. McKennon
Anderson and Foster and Dobbins &
Ewing have placed the contracts for
their furniture and DR.. W. P. Void
ridge will place his contract within
the next few days.
The Dobbins & Ewing annex which
opens out on South Garden street is
completed as far as the brick masons
are concerned and the timers will
begin putting on the roof this week.

IS IN HIGH FAVOR

Good old-fashioned handmade torchon
lace has been revived for the trimming
Of underwear. 1t is a durable serviceable
lace that never should have gone out of
fashion, and most women will welcome
its return as they would the flowers in
May.
Our mothers used it on all fine under
wear, and it was only given up when
the masses of cheap laces were intro
Guced by the manufacturers.
Now. however, consumers are recog-
rizing the error Of their ways and favor
the torchon patterns made of substan-
tial linen threads.
With this revival it is expected, that
some of the dainty handmade laces SO
dear to the heart of our feminine an
Cestors will again be in vogue. With a
fine crochet needle and a ball Of linen
thread the idle hours can be profitably
employed in making yards of lace after
some simple pattern that will not tax
the brain too much with the counting OF
stitches. Small handbOoks can be had
at the art neddlework departments of
cur large stores. that contain full in
struCtiOns in the making of laces that
will not only give a dainty touch to the
homemade undergarments. but would be
8 most acceptable gift for the brfde-to-
be who is busily engaged in stocking her
trousseau chest.
We welcome the revival Of handmade
torChOn lace.
