of young man suddenly appeared at
one of the openings on the second
floor. 1t showed for only three Sec
onds, but that was long enough to
satisfy the girl that she was looking
at human belng-a young man
whose face might have been interest
ing but for the look of fear on It,
THAT chap is hiding!" whispered
the girl to herself, and she felt more
curiosity than fear.
Bob Andrews had been sheriff Of
Boone county, term after term, and his
wife and daughter had always been
more or less interested in his cases.
YES" resumed the girl" IF he
were not a fugitive, he would not be
here. Hasn't the look Of horse thief,
and he is stranger in this locality.
May have been hiding here for three
or four days, but | haven't heard that
dad is after anyone just now. He is
probably armed. Wonder what dad
would do If he were here?"
For fve long minutes she kept her
eyes on the window, hoping the man
would show his face again, and then
she sprang up with the words:
why, / know what dad would do.
He'd go in there and pull the fellow
out and find out all about him. I'll
do the same!"
Without giving herself time to ar
que, she walked straight up to the
house and halfway around 1t to the
porch, and hooked in at the doors. A
rotting and dismantied stairway led
up from hallway with little heaps Of
rubbish here and Decentralization on
every hand. 1t was ghostly place,
even at midday.
Come down here, sir!'
The girl stepped into the hall and
called to whomever might be above.
No reply-no movement
"Then | shall come up!"
With a chill at her heart and every
nervs tingling, Polly softly mounted

Metal Ribbons, PIcot Edged.

In accordance with the general
vogue for metal effects this season,
ribbon manufacturers are devoting
much attention to the production Of
metallic novelties, says the Dry Goods
Economist. Not only Is a touch Of
gold or silver employed, but many all
metal numbers are in evidence. Pi-
cot-edged silver and gold ribbons are
shown, in widths from No 7 to 16.
Other handsome metal novelties In
widths up to No are distinguished
by a grosgrain edge. Self-colored
striped metals in gold and In silver
are shown, especially suitable for use
in fashioning hair ornaments. Guam

Brand New Baby Is Hunted Down as Burglar

man to the happy father.
Sure, and big fellow too" was
the whispered reply.
Where is he?"
Hes in the back bedroom. Want
to go back?" asked Mccarthy.
Certainly, I'll go back. Just let
me get one look at him."
"The nurse is in there, too" said
the father eyeing the policeman.
What! Why, she may be killed by
this time!"
mo he isn't so savage as that al
though he is a strapping big fellow"
Tho door was pushed gently open
and the policeman, still clutching his
revolver, leaped in. He looked at the
baby, soundly sleeping in the arms OF
smiling nurse, and then turned to
the father.
II thought all the time it was a
burglar. Isn't it?"
"Of course not. He's going to be
policeman, not burglar" said Nc
Carthy.
Then Hoffman returne6 to the police
station and announced that it was too
early to arrest the person who hat
broken into the Mccarthy home.

After he had finished the washing and
hung the wash out, Mr.. Adams came
into the city and did not return until
the next day, which was Aug. IA. Desc
lation awaited him. The bathing suits
lay in a charred mass before the por-
tico Of his home.
What is this?" he demanded.
"Tut, TUT" replied Mrs Adams.
"They are burned Can't you seer"
Mr.. Adams reported the catastrophe
to Odiva, who procured a warrant
against Mrs. Adams.
Magistrate Mcclure released Mrs.
Adams on the ground that there was
no evidence to show she had started

THlCAG0.-The stork made so much
y noise breaking into the rear door
q Lawrence McCarthy's house, at
liSS West Twenty.third street, early
ae other morning, that neighbors
thought that 1t couldn't be anything
less than a burglar-perhaps a dozen
Of them.
a frightened woman who saw lights
suddenly turned up In the house and

ASKED that policemen be hurried to

are shown for fall, most Of them made
OF taffeta over rice net foundations,
and all of them finished with veil
which Is part of the design.
A good example is shown here. 1t
is Of light tobacco brown taffeta trim
med with lace and lace covered but
tons. The crown Is soft and plated
into band about the face, The edge
is frill of plated taffeta and the veil
is arranged to be thrown over the
face II needed. This model is becom-
ing to almost every one and is made
in all the staple colors.
Another model is not so soft for 1t
IL made with a round stiff crown.
But the brim is made over rice-net and
is therefore not rigid. Black tafreta
laid in fine plaits covers the brim,
and light blue taffeta Is stretched over
the crown. A large, square, chiffon
veil in light blue Is finished with a
border Of black taffeta ribbon. The
veil is laid over the hat, falling on
all sides. A narrow boxplaiting Of
taffeta ribbon is laid over the veil at
the base of the crown, and sewed to
place here. This confines the veil,
which may be thrown back at will.
This bonnet is made In many color
copbinations, as pink and black, light
green and black, white and black, and
is very pretty in white and taupe and
