Walter was transformed into a very
natural looking gentleman of the up
per Italian set.
Then he set about bribing the hotel
servants to learn the plans for the fu-
ture OF aunt and niece. He ascertained
that they had arranged to sail for
home within a week. In the mean
time daily the two ladies made their
pleasure and shopping rounds.
There was to be an international
social event that took the form of
masked ball and Walter learned that
the ladies were invited guests. Those
attending were required to go in char
acter costume, or at least to wear
mask. He secured an invitation. He
made a notable cavalier and enyel-
oped in long cloak as soon as a cab
had taken Nina and her chaperon
away from the hotel, jumped into
second vehicle and joined their COM
pany at a distance.
Suddenly he made discovery. The
vehicle containing the ladies, after
pursuing the main thoroughfares lead
ing to the place of the masquerade,
turned off into side street. AS it
did so two suspicious occurrences
fixed the attention of Walter. The
driver of the former carriage swung
hand towards Nina's driver, while
the latter kept straight on without
turning.
Stop" ordered Walter instantly.
Get sign-no," returned his driver
with shrug Of the shoulder, and
drove on
You scoundrel-this is some plot"
cried Walter. and sprang from the
vehicle and was down the side street
in pursuit Of the other carriage.

days Of brigandage were not over in

that the practically unprotected Nina
and her aunt had been spotted by a
league of criminals Her diamonds.
knowledge of her wealth had
led to plan to kidnap her, remove
her to a remote mountain fastness
and hold her for ransom.
Walter was hot in the wake of the
carriage as it drove into the court of
an isolated mansion. The driver
sprang down. He was about to apply
whistle to his lips to summon his
confederates within the building.

He had seized heavy piece of a

blow and the villainous driver went

and that means that there is abundant flare and fulness with co m para lively smooth fit over the hips. The sleeveless coatee is finished with a circular pep lum too, so that there is a ruff1ed effect that is exceed- ingly handsome as well as smart. Similar color effects to the one illustrated can of course be ob- tained in different materials. Crepe de chine or Georgette crepe could be used in place of the or- gandie for the sleeves, or, a cotton material could make the gown in place of the silk and the cotton ma. terials are very beau- tiful this year, many of the embroidered crepes being really exquisite in coloe and in weave. A pretty effect could l~ obtained by making the skirt and the sleeves of white crepe with the coatee CT over-bodice of taf- feta in some pretty color, either lowered or plain, for white gowns with coatccs of color are extremely smart and always pretty and pie turesque. Again, the entire gown could be made of one material and that treatment is of course slightly more practical and less dressy in effect; plain taffcta treated in that way with banding of vel. vet ribbon taking the place of the ruches. would make a very handsome gown and a serviceable one as well, admirably adapted to the nce,:e of the late summer. material 27 in. widei h IN yds. 36 for the rom 34 to 42 in. bust Fashion DeDartment

handsome tor any one of these, while it also is quite appro- priate for the simpler costume of serge or of chcviot. In the picture, gabardine is trimmed with velvet and velvet seems to hint of the coming season. At front and at back, the coat is plain, but there are plaits at the sides that arc joined to the plain body portion beneath the belt. The lines are cx- cccdingly good and since the lower edge can be made either straight or pointed, the model becomes adapted to all figures. The silk suit makes perhaps one of the best assets for be- tween seasons and for early autumn. Falllc or poplin with coat made just as shown here, using satin in place of the velvet, would make a very handsome suit and one that can be worn until cold weather. Taifeta is such a general favorite that it calls for special mention. The woman who is plan- ming a costume for the vacation to be taken in August or Sep tcmber, could not do better than to make a taffeta suit with coat of this sort. It would be very smart with the velvet just as it is here, for vel vet in such quantities is not too heavy at this season and is always handsome on the tafeta. Appro- prntely the coat can be used with any fashionable skirt, but one with plaits at the sides would of course be especially har- monious.
