A burial place OF the Stone Age has
just been found by Prof. Dali Osso of
Ancona, in the Vale Vibrata prov

The bodies are not buried, but are
all laid in small cabins containing
from two to eight each, and are
ranged on either side OF these little
huts on low platforms sloping toward
the center.
With a single exception the bodies
all rest on one side, with the knees
drawn up. and 1t is assumed that the
dead were placed In this position to
give them the attitude OF prayer in
their death chamber for It has been
established that the custom OF praying
on ones knees was already in exist

bodies, but a big circular hearth,

WOULD MARK ALL CRIMINALS |
Woman's Suggestion to Mayor Of New
York is to Have Them All Ap-
propriately Tattooed.

Among the helpful letters daily re-
ceived by Mayor Mitchell came one the
other day signed Nine. Mercury" the
New York Sun states. She wrote that
since all other forms of punishment
had failed she would suggest that each
criminal be tattooed with a suitable
mark across his forehead or on the
cheeks.
"A pickpocket," she said, should
have long fingered red hand grasp
ing purse tattooed on the cheek. A
Black Handler should have black
heart pierced with red dagger a
gunman should be marked with a
red hand grasping a gun, grafters
with hand grasping the long green,
thugs marked with blue hand grasp
Ing blackjack, burglars marked with
a doorlock and pick.

she asked. 1T is humane and will not
require any extra expense. See how
many gunmen. pickpockets, murderers
and thieves the police can tattoo In

"The revolution that suggest in

CHAPTER xvl.-continued.

The weeks slipped by. He was with
her almost daily. Other people came
to her house, some for rather protract-
ed visits. others in quest of pillage at
the nightly bridge table, but he was
seldom missing. There were times
when be thought he detected a ten
dency to waver, but each cunning at
tempt on his part to encourage the
impulse invariably brought a certain
mocking light into her eyes and he
yeered off in defeat. Something kept
telling him, however, that the hour
was bound to come when she would
falter in her resolution; when frank
ness would meet frankness, and the
the veil be lifted.
There we're no letters from Hetty,
no word OF any description. II Sara
knew anything OF the girls movements
she did not take Booth into her conii-
dence.
Leslie Wrandall went abroad in Au-
gust, ostensibly to attend the aviation
meets In France and England. His
mother and sister sailed in September,
but not before the entire colony OF
which they we're a part had begun to
discuss Sara and Booth with relish
that was obviously distasteful to the
Wrandalls.
Where there is smoke there is fire,
said all the gossips, and forthwith pro
ceeded to carry faggots.
A week or so before sailing, Mrs
Redmond Wrandall had Booth In for
dinner. think she said en- famille
At any rate, Sara was not as ked
which is proof enough that she was
bent on making 1t family affair.
After dinner, Booth sat in the
screened upper balcony with Vivian

plain-spoken young woman, with few
false ideals and no subtlety. She wa'
less snobbish than arrogant. or al
the Wrandalls, she was the least self
centered. Leslie never quite under
stood her for the paradoxical reason
that she thoroughly understood him.

"And all that sort OF thing" she
said sweepingly, and he could almost
see the inclusive gesture with her free
hand. He laughed but still marveled
at the shrewdness OF her perceptions.
"Ill come over this afternoon and
show you wherein you are wrong" he
began, but she interrupted him with a
laugh.

True to her word, she WAS gone
when he drove over later on In the
day. Somehow, he experienced a
queer feeling OF relief Not that he
was oppressed by the rather vivacious
opinions Of Vivian and her fix, but
because something told him that Sara
was waverlng in her determination to
withhold the secret from him and fed
for perfectly obvious reasons.
lie had two commissions among the
rich summer colonists. One, a full

shooting togs, was nearly finished. The
other was TO be halflength Of Mrs.
Rayenscroft. who wanted one just like
Hetty Castleton's, except for the eyes,
which she admitted would have to be
different. Nothing was said Of the
seventeen years difference in their
ages. Vivian had put off posing until
Lent.
The Wrandalls departed for Scot
land, and other friends of his began
to desert the country for the city. The
fortnight passed and another week
besides. Mrs. Ravenscroft decided to
90 to Europe when the picture was

and that was the end of II all. She
had made the unpleasant discovery
that It wasn't going to be in the least
like Hetty Castletons, so why bother
about II?
Booth waited until Sara came out
to superintend the closing Of her house
for the winter. He called at South.
look on the day OF her arrival. He
was struck at once by the curious
change in her appearance and manner
There was something bleak and desc,
late in the vivldly brilliant face: the
tired wistful, harassed look OF one
who has begun to quail and yet fights
on.
"Will you 20 out with me tomorrow
Brandon, for an all.day trip in the

gether before the open fireplace OF
this late November afternoon. HeI
