leaping fame, Paul saw, with startling
suddenness, the head and shoulders of
a white-bearded old man emerge from
the obscurity. 1t was the astrologer,

rows stamped into his face one might
have read the story of life given up
to wickedness Paul shuddered at the
sight of the man, but could not turn
his eyes from this hideous apparition.
Evidently there was more than in
cense in the bowl, for the smell of
nostrils, and the secretary, stepping
toward the Jam, proffered him tiny
cup of the liquid. The prince grunted
and began slipping noisily. The other
cup Ramchundra handed to Paul; in
the darkness, Paul could make out a

face. The mans hand, too, shook as
he handed 1t to him. Despite their I'M

he set the empty cup upon an inlaid
table, and saw Ramchundra obse-
quiously take the other empty cup
from the Jam. And now there re-
manned nothing but to wait until the
drug took effect on the unstable ruler.
Presently Paul's eyes became accus-
toned to the darkness. He saw the
dim figure of the old astrologer clear

motionless in his chair. and Ramchun-
Ora at his side. The princes lethargy
seemed to indicate that the drug was
beginning to take effect on him. Pres

Paul leaned back in his chair and
stretched out his limbs luxuriously.
All sense of strangeness had depart

edge of some secret power within him
which made success a certainty. He
looked into the glass.

Paul nodded vaguely. The dimness,

him, also, to lethargic condition. He
could summon no resolution to his

When the balloon Philadelphia ii.

dren in one of the public schools were
at recess. A teacher who took advan-
tage of the opportunity to give the
children a practical lesson went out
into the school yard, and calling the

balloons. Among other things she
told them that what they saw coming
down was sand. which they threw out
to tighten the balloon so 1t would go
up higher.
After they returned to the school
room she asked questions regarding
what they had seen. Among other
things she asked: IF the man want

He was one of the procession now

watchers. A company of soldiers
flashed into sight; white-turbaned
Sikhs, with curled boards, spotlessly
clad, holding their rifles suddenly to
the attention as mounted general
rode past. He bore some message,

deafening acclamations rent the air.
Darkness. The scene had changed
AS in the picture show, when new

new scene flashed into clear precision
before Pauls eyes. He was seated, as
he had arranged to sit, upon the top

ground opposite the pavilion in which

TVHIS is the season at which skating
 costumes should be of interest
 A but here in old Gotham, at least, they are not thought of. On the con- trary, it is so warm that the summer materials present attractions from the standpoint of immediate use as well as of suggestion for the future and for the South, and, consequently we are thinking of costumes designed for rather different occasions than the carnival upon the ice or the sleigh ride to be taken, wrapped in warm rugs. Ii is really fascinating season, how ever, and so many pretty and attract i've things greet one that there IS something of interest wherever one turns. There is the usual exodus to the South in spite of the mild weather Automobiling is being enjoyed to the full and there are always the winter functions to bring varied demands.

 It seems a little curious that this phenomenally warm winter should have been the one chosen for the general use of fur trimmings and 1t IS something of a relief to see marabout used now and then, for fur unques- tionable gives suggestion of warmth, and with the thermometer in it's present state, we do not need that suggestion. Every kind of crepe material is fashionable and crepe de chine is a\ pronounced favorite. An exceedingly lovely afternoon gown IS made of that material in a very beau- tiful shade of brown and 1t is trimmed with little bits of embroidery worked in heavy floss combining blue and gold while changeable blue and gold tafeta makes the girdle. There are bands of brown fur trimming the neck and sleeve edges that are charming. Some very lovely dancing frocks designed for young girls are trimmed with mara bout and marabout IS being used as substitute for fur to great advantage Some of the new Colors are already being put to use and lovely gown of crepe de chine in the new brown.

In one of the speciality shops given over to rather exclusive trade is shown a rather interesting variety of these wraps and, side by side herewith, one of the most prac- tical automobile or steamer coats to be found. It is made of soft, woolly material, preferably double-faced, but
 is so constructed that. when not in use, it can be folded perfectly flat after the manner of rug and laid on the seat of the auto or rolled and held by shawl strap. In this form
 it makes rug simply to be thrown over the knees. The adjustment of a few buttons and button-holes. how ever, converts it into an exceedingly smart loose coat with big, becoming collar, and this collar can be buttoned up closely about the throat if Jack Frost concludes to do some real work If a cold weather trip across the sea is in prospect, the coat can be adjusted over the figure and closed at the
