when the long fingers of the law seemed closing upon
him, he had managed to evade punishment; and this
because he always worked alone and left no in
eliminating evidence behind him. Even Raydon, the
clevercst detective in the Secret Service, forced to
admit he was bafled by the ingenious craftsman: how
ever Raydon declared he would mail him yet.
There came night when Nolan who could line

Cretonnes are 80 attractive that they
have inspired much designing of ar
ticles for personal use and house dec
oration. Recently linen crash and
flowered cretonnes have become more
popular than any other fabrics for
tasteful and inexpensive fittings and
furnishing. Certain patterns have
been featured for living rooms and
porches, but It is in bedroom furnish
ings that they take precedence OF ev-
erythlng else. They are bright and
dainty and better still, they are wash
able. Crashes are embroidered In
fast color embroidery silks or deco
rated with cut figures OF cretonne ap-
piled and button.hole stitched down.
There is long list of attractive
things which are made OF these dura-
BILE fabrics. Among them the dressing
case sets. which cannot fail TO please,
are among the least costly and most
effective OF Christmas gifts, They are
acceptable to either men or women
friends.
Tho lowered cretonnes are used for
covering boxes made TO hold handker-
chiefs. gloves, neckwear. crayats and
wells. and the large boxes for hats
and shirtwaists. They are fine for
laundry bags. shoe and slipper bags.
pin cushions and pin trays. tea trays
and tea cosles Dresser scarfs are
made OF n plain fabric bordered with
cretonne. Picture frames are covered
with II and the cut-out figures are ap.
piled to candle shades. Cushions for
chairs help carry out the scheme for
cretonne decorations.
In the picture are three candle
shades. a fino tray and frame for
photographs. They nre made OF ere

candle shades all matching ought TO
