Hair Decorations.

Ostrich tips are appearing once
more in fashionable hair ornaments,
but perhaps the most striking of hair
ornament revivals is the big Spanish
comb. 1t is not becoming to everyone,
but where It is becoming It is extraor-
dinarily piquant, and II is consider
ably in evidence this summer.
One OF the new ideas in connection
with It is a comb whose high top is
formed entirely of plaitings Of fine

conscious after misstep in the night
More than once-aye, more than
dozen times-one or the other of these
loyal friends stood between him and
death, and times without numbers he,
too. turned the grim reaper aside for
them.
John Desmond. gay, handsome and
still young as men of his kind go, met
the fate that brooks no Intervention.
He was the first to drop out of the
ranks. In Cairo, during curious Pc
Rod of inactivity some ten months
after the advent of James Brood, he
met the woman who conquered his ven
turesome spirit-a slim, calm, pretty
English governess in the employ of a
British admiraPs family. They were
married inside of six months. He took
her home to the little Maryland town
that had not seen him in years.
Ten years passed before James
Brood put his foot on the soil of his
native land. Then he came back TO
the home of his fathers, to the home
that had been desecrated, and with
him came the two old men who now
sat in his huge library before the
cracking fire. He could go on with
life, but they were no longer fit for
it's cruel hardships. His home became
theirs. They were to die there when
the time came.
Brood's son was fifteen years of age
before he knew, even by sight, the
man whom he called father. Up to
the time of the death of his mother.
in the home of her fathers, he had
been kept in seclusion.
There had been deliberate, purpose
in the methods of James Brood in SO
| far as this unhappy child was con.
cerned. When he cast out the mother
he set his hand heavily upon her flu
ture. Fearing-even feeling-the in
fernal certainty that this child was not
his own, he planned with machiavellian
instinct to hurt her to the limit of his
powers and to the end of her days
He knew she would hunger for this
| baby boy of hers, that her heart could
be broken through him, that her pun
ishment could be made full and com
plete. He sequestered the child in g
place where he could not be found
and went his own way, grimly certain
that he was making her pay! She
died when Frederic was eight years
old, without having seen him agar

For the past three months or more
he had been privileged to hold her
close in his arms and to kiss her good
night at parting. They were lovers
now The slow fuse of passion had
reached it's end and the flame was
alive and shining with a radiance that
enveloped both of them.
On this night, however, he passed
her door without knocking. His dark
handsome face was flushed, and his
teeth were set in sullen anger. With
his hand on the knob of his own door
he suddenly remembered that he had
failed Lydia for the first time. and
stopped A pang Of shame shot
through him. For a moment he hest

the forgotten door. Even as he raised
his hand to sound the loving signal
