CHAPTER XXI.
A Man of No Principle.

Monsieur Chatelard's disappearance
was as complete as though he had
dropped off the earth. The sheriff,
with his warrant in his pocket, hid
his chagrin behind the sugar and -four
barrels whose sale occupied his time
when he wasn't losing malefactors.
Chamberlain. having once freed his
mind to the grave-like Hand, main
tanned absolute silence on the subject,
so far as the audience at the old red
house was concerned. But he went
into consultation with Aleck, and to-
gether they laid network OF police
inspection about Ilion and Charles
port.
1T won't do any good" grumbled
Chamberlain. Wen have to catch
him and choke him with our own
hands. if it ever gets done"
Nevertheless, they left nothing to
chance. Telegraph and telephone we're
brought into reauisition, and within
twenty-four hours after the disap-
pearance every station on the railroad,
as well as every village along the
coast, was warned to arrest the fugi-
tive if he came that way. Mr. Cham
berlain took the white motor and went
off on long. mysterious journeys,
coming back only to go into secret
conclave with Aleck, or mysteriously
to rush off again.
Aleck Van Camp stayed at home,
keeping a dog-watch on Melanie and
Madame Reynier, whether they were
at the Hillside or at the old red
house. Now that the purposes of the
Frenchman had been made clear. and
since he was still at large, the world
was no safe place for unattended
women. Aleck pondered deeply over
the situation.

Why should sensible men of this

1t may be true that women of to-

seem to be actuated to initiate the

an affair of the fair sex and men
had best keep out of it. Their sug

Time and again the question has
been asked. What has become of
the old-fashioned girl who know

She still exists, hut, like radium,
is very rare and hard to find.
1t is not the fault of the women,
perhaps; it is the fault Of the age
in which they live.

ent gown are finding eager advo-
Gates. The wearers of these spec
tacular garments are not all In

THE TANGO PEDoMETER.

The tango pedometer is the latest,
1t registers the distance Travelled
around room by the dancer and
thus gives correct idea OF the
amount of exercise taken.
The pedometer is worn about or
near the ankle and is, OF course, hid
den from view, but the register may
be read at any time by the tiniest
lift Of the skirt.
At a tango tea in one of the pop
ular hotels of Los Angeles a young
society woman surprised her part
ner, after an hour or more of dane
ing, by lifting her skirt just little
bit to consult the pedometer worn
above her ankle and by her an-
nouncement that she had covered
distance of four miles to the
music of the orchestra. To verify
the record she asked her partner,
a young man who was very good al
figures, to multiply the length of the
tango room by the time danced, de-
duct the minutes between dances
and arrive at conclusion. The re-
suit did not quite tally with the reg
istry Of the pedometer, but, that may
have been the fault Of the mathe-
NAUTICAL calculation. Then the idea
occurred to the young woman to
have several of her girl friends wear
pedometers at the next dansante and
at the conclusion of the dance COM
pare the records to determine wheth-
er they might be accepted as relia-
BILE.
This new device opens up a wide
field Of speculation as to possibil,-
ties. Physicians have agreed that
dancing is most healthful and in
MIGRATING exercise and that 1t
should be practiced within modera-
tion for Its beneficial effects, An
objection is that it is frequently
carried to excess, involving late
hours. late suppers and such indis-
cretions as going from a warm room
into the cool air without sufficiel
catching cold. The Joy of dancing
affords mental relaxation as well as
physical exercise and is emphasized
that ~ avaro;oa ;e eo b.naGa,ol - :
that which Ia enjoyable. Hence the
popularity OF golf and other outdoor
sports with those who are trying to
reduce weight or to improve digea-
ton. With this new device attached
to ones ankle the dancer or golfer
would be able to measure the
amount of exercise taken and avoid
OVERRIDING 1t by knocking off in time
which would be better than firing
ones self to the point of detracting
from the benefits to be derived from
the exercise.
Next to tangoing, which is said
~ "a tht1 Tilt liluSNltE UI the UOuf
into play, walking is the best exer-
else and the pedometer might be
pleasurably, If not benefcially. en-
ployed in that also but the AVERAGE
young woman who might dance
forty miles between dark and day-
light could hardly be persuaded to-
walk the distance of two blocks
from her home to the ballroom or
even to the shopping district. She
dotes on dancing, but she balks on
walking, But with the weight-re-
ducers and dyspeptics it might be
different and the pedometer might
prove an encouragement to both, es-
peeially If prizes were offered to
dancers and pedestrians who could
show the best records.
