coIors TO Wear.

In spite of advice to the contrary,
blondes should avoid the lighter
shades Of blue, which make their COM
plexions seem ashen. The darker
shades, however, throw the complex
ion in high relief and are vastly be-
coming
True brunettes should not wear blue,
which makes the skin yellower than
ever, but forid brunettes can do so.
Blondes may wear green, but not bru-
nettes. Pale brunettes may wear any
shade of red but crimson, which, how
ecer, looks well on the blonde. Yellow
is the best color for pale brunettes,
especially for evening wear. 1t clears
the complexion and sets of the dark
eyes and hair wonderfully.

of the glass topped table.
Hayes trembled and his heart sank.

means to be the object of complaints
by passengers.

INJURED anxiously.
You have disturbed the sleep of a
large number of passengers on this
line" said the superintendent. Let
tiers have come to me from travelling
men who ride on your train, and they
say that when you announce station
at night your voice not only wakes
them, but scares them and knocks
them out of a proper frame of mind
to do business the next day. Here
after, Mr.. Hayes, when calling out sta
lions wish you would not try to dis
place the window panes or experiment
with sound vibrations on the bell rope.
But it seems that Mr.. Hayes is
walking library for volumes and vol
umes of stentorian noise 1t couldn't
be suppressed, and as he had no time
to attend a ball game and let out
steam on the bleachers. he had to re-
sumo his old habit of standing at one
end of a yellow car and closing the
door at the opposite end by sheer force
of his low register. Also he would
cough when impelled by the platform
draft, and the stovepipe would col
lapse with jangling noise. For a
time the gentle patter of cinders
would be stilled and the volatile dents
in the water cooler would take up the
echoes. At least, that was the descrip-
ton given by the sleep-eager passen-
gers who signed petition which was
sent to the big chief at Omaha ere
another month had passed.
The railroad officials were deeply
puzzled by the case of Conductor
Hayes, who had proved himself relia-
BILE and efficient in every other way.
Some one suggested putting him on
day run, where people sleep at their
own risk. or at the mercy of the train
butcher.
In the meantime the hilarious story
of Conductor Hayes and the sleepy
drummers found its way to Chicago
and Conductor Hayes was ordered to
report here. He came. wondering and
promptly he was set to work learn
ing the list of train departures. Then
when the new station was opened,
like an admiral on the porch of bat
tleship, he stood in his high balcony
and began his interminable recita-
lions in earnest. For day or SO he
wrestled with echoes and acoustic
snares, but now he has mastered the
problem of resonance in the great sta
ton.

One Girl Provides Herself With Serv-
iceabIe Substitute for More Elk
pensive Manufactured One.

Every girl who has seen a ward
robe trunk instantly appreciates the
advantage of having one Of them, but
as such pieces of luggage are so ex-
pensive as to be beyond the reach OF
most of their admirers the best
course is to try to provide substi-
tute with the aid of an ordinary
trunk and the exercise of some in
genuity.
One girl partially solved this diff.
Guilty by having the tray of her square
trunk cut in half and one section OF
1t nailed permanently in position aft
er dividing it into compartments for
lingerie and shoes. The space below
the tray was then equipped with
three hat holders tackled against the
sides of the trunk. and into the ad
joining floor space was fitted a large
fiat box with a hasp fastening, which
was divided to hold handkerchiefs
gloves, wells and neckwear.
The half of the trunk lid which did
rot collide with the remaining por.
ton of the divided tray was then
equipped with hooks for dozen gar
ment hangers and made a satisfac
tory wardrobe for gowns and frocks

CHAPTER v.
A Visit to the Count.

WISH 70 the COUNT.
| The bland serenity of Mr.. Camp
BELLS face was disturbed by thin.
spidery lines of perplexity, and the
guileless blue eyes were vacant as he
stared at the top of his desk. Mr..
| Grimm was talking.
From the moment Miss Thorne
turned the corner lost all trace of
her" he said. Either she had an au-
tomobile in waiting, or else she was
| lucky enough to find one Immediately
she came out. She did not return to
the embassy ball last night-that
much is certain" He paused refec-
lively. "She is a guest of senorita
Inez Rodriguez at the Venezuelan le-
cation" he added
Yes, know" his chief nodded
Il didn't attempt to see her there
last night for two reasons Mr..
Grimm continued. First, she can
have no possible knowledge of the
fact that she is suspected, unless per-
haps the man who slammed the
door" He paused. Anyway. she
will not attempt to leave Washington;
am confident Of that. Again, 1t didn't
seem wise to me to employ the ordi-
nary crude police methods in the case
that is, go to the Venezuelan lega-
ton and pick up row."
For a long time Campbell was ST.
lent; the perplexed lines still furrowed
his benevolent forehead.
THE president is very anxious that
we get to facts in this reported Latin
alliance as soon as possible" he said
at last, irreleyantly. HE mentioned
the matter last night, and he has
been keeping in constant communica-
ton with Gault in Lisbon who. how
ever, has not been able to add ma
terfally to the original dispatch. I'm
