The mans calm tone was having its effect
upon Icrmyn. He began to realize the Situa-
ton more clearly The sick feeling of horror
that had almost overcome him was still there;
but he was feeling better able to withstand it.
You are right, he muttcred. Il was
fool not to think Of it,.
He stopped down and CROPPED about the
floor near where Lord Lakenham was lying.
There were half dozen crushed roses from
the bouquet that he had sent to her room be
fore dinner lying Just underneath the table,
a little roscttc of ivory satin, a fragment OF
lace from her scarf. He picked them up
'calously and stuffed them into his pocket.
Smith looked on approvingly. Little

he remarked. will sometimes hang an inno-

All the more reason then, Smith pointed
ont. for conccaling those little scraps of cyi-
dencc. which certainly seem TO point toward
a struggle And now, if there is really such

PRODUCE PRICES NOT
AFFECTED BY WEATHER
Housewives Told by Dealers That
Costs Have Not Risen.


The fears OF many housewives here
that the recent drought, coupled with
sudden changes in weather, would so
affect tho crops of fruits and vegetables
as to bring about a raise in prices were
dlspelIed by inquiry among the fruit and
produce dealers and growers today.
THE fruit crops" said prominent
Dock street dealer, who expressed the
general feeling, with the possible eN-
ception of apples and pears have been
picked, and tree crops are not. as Il rule,
very much affected by weather, anyway.
Peaches have been poor ever since the
beginning of the season. but there have
been plenty of them and prices have not
been very high accordingly.
"As for vegetables, there have never
recn so many of them and they have
not been so cheap for long time. 1t
is true that tomatoes have been scarce
and high. but to offset this there is an
abundance OF onions, cucumbers and the
like selling for less than tho cost of
raising them"

ACROSS THE COUNTER

The output of inexpensive gloves that are,
nevertheless, very good looking, appears
to increase to meet an increasing de-
mand.
There is a glove of woven material
called leatherette that requires very close
inspection to distinguish it from doeskin
or suede.,
These leatherette gloves in groys and
tans are sold for 80 cents a pair.
A chamoisette glove that clesely re-
sembleS WHITE suede is sold In the 12-
button length for 81
Childrcn's chamoisette gloves in chamois
color and gray and tan cost so cents a
pair.
These gloves wash very well, and 1t is
advised by the dealers TO use cold or
tepid water rather than hot and to let
them lie in soapsuds instead of rubbing
them too vigorously
So far there seems to be no very great
increase in price in the staple kid gloves.
A very good quality of street glove
with one clasp sells for 81 now. This is
in the many shades of tan.
Another good glove at the same price
is doeskin In the different shades of
gray
Capeskin gloves for women and chill
dren are selling for s1.25 pair. These
are n sensible glove for shopping ard for
school wear in the case of children.
The very smart dogskin glove, hand
sewn and of English make costs S1.J0.
At the same price there is a heavy
dogslItn glove with one clasp and with
outseams.
Whether or not the price of gloves will
rise as the supply dimshes is a matter
of conscience on the one hand and con-
lecture on the other.
But even If the price remains sta
tionary, there may come time when
kid gloves will be out of the market alto
gether, If the European war lasts for
several years, as it is predicted that it
will by MANY military men.
