Eresheninq Ribbons.

Ribbons and silks can usually pc
made to look fresher if they are
washed in soapy water, dried and
ironed. If they are desired stiff they
should be ironed while wet. If they
are to be soft they must first be dried,
and any wrinkles which refuse to iron
out without water can be moistened
with a sponge wrung dry.

CHAPTER VIII.
Finger-Prints.

Hilton Toye was the kind of Ameri-
can who knew London as well as most
Londoners, and some other capitals a
good deal better than their respective
| citizens of corresponding intelligence.
! His travels were mysteriously but en-
viably interviewer with business; he
| had an air of enjoying himself, and at
| the same time making money to pay
for his enjoyment, wherever he went.
| His hotel days were much the same all
| over Europe: many appointments, but
abundant leisure AS, however, he
| never spoke about his own affairs un
less they were also those of the lis
tener-and not always then-half his
acquaintances had no idea how he
made his money, and the other half
wondered how he spent his time. Of
| his mere interests, which were many
| Toye made no such secret; but it was
quite impossible to deduce a main in
| dustry from the by-products of his
level-headed versatility.
Criminology, for example was an
obvious by-product; it was no morbid
| taste in Hilton Toye, but scientific
hobby that appealed to his mental
subtlety. And subtle he was, yet
with strange simplicities; grave and
dignified, yet addicted to the express
siye phraseology of his less enlight-
ened countrymen; naturally sincere,
and yet always capable of some in
genuous duplicity.
The appeal of a Blanche Macnair to
| such soul needs no analysis. She
had struck through all complexities to
the core, such rs it was or as she
might make 1t. AS yet she could only
admire the character the man had
shown, though it had upset her none
the less. At Engelberg he had pro-
posed to her inside. of two weeks"
as he had admitted without compunc-
tion at the time. 1t had taken him,
he said, about two minutes to make
up his mind but the following sum-
mer he had laid more deliberate siege,
in accordance with some old idea that
she had let fall to soften her first re-
fusal. The result had been the same,
only more explicit on both sides. She
/ had denied him the least particle of
hope, and he had warned her that she
| had not heard the last of him by any
means, and never would till she mar
ried another man. This had incensed
her at the time, but a great deal less
on subsequent reflection; and such
was the position between that pair
when Toye and Cazalet landed in Eng
land from the same steamer.
On this second day ashore, as GAIA
| let sat over a late breakfast in Jer-
myn street, Toye sent in his card and
was permitted to follow it, rather to
his surprise. He found his man frank
ly divided between kidneys and-bacon
and the morning paper, but in hearty
mood, indicative of amends for his
great heat in yesterdays argument.
You should say what kinds, not
what kind" she corrected him gently.
Il think I'll try every kind they've got.
He-he Won't that be a lark?"
You mustn't" he cr:e0.
oh but SHALL" she laughed mer-
! rily. And she started by ordering
| chocolate, persimmon and rhubarb
