Then Cazalet introduced himself to
the old gardener whom he had known
all his life; and by rights the man
should have wept outright. or else
emitted rustic epigram laden with
wise humor. But old Savage hailed
from silly Suffolk, and all his life he
had belied his surname, but never the
alliterative libel on his native county.
He took the wanderers return very
much as matter of course, very
much as though he had never been

only in his further use of the East

Savage looked cautiously toward

lowered his voice dramatically. Sure.
Miss Blanche. Why. see him that

Blanche, and Cazalet, nodded vigorous

Savage said this with a pleased and
yacuous grin, looking Cazalet full in
the face; his rheumy eyes were red
as the sunset they faced; and Cazalet
drew deep breath as Blanche and he
turned back toward the river.

RIGS mentioned as suited to coats that
must be graceful and not too weighty.
Two features of this model bespeak
for it special consideration. They are
the collar and the belt, both very nov
Ell and practical The collar is con-

extend entirely across tho front of
the neck, an item that will be APP
preciated by the short.necked wearer.
The belt of the fabric does not extend
across the back. but, Overlaps band
of satin, which joins the full skirt to
the shaped body.
Plain pointed pieces are set on to
the belt at each side, and the belt
dips toward the front. The body is
fulled by means of plaits at the waist
line and falls in straight lines below
the bust. Everywhere is evidence that
the designer has worked to produce
an effect of slenderness.
Silk ornaments and buttons of the
material finish design which por-

wolfe with hemstitched edges and an
inserted line of hemstitching about an
inch from the edge.
The second collar is of plain or
candle with a rolled hem and an edge
of cluny lace. 1t is wired at the back
and flares from the point of the "
shaped opening at the front. A tie
Of narrow black velvet ribbon is

This little touch of black velvet is

of many of the new neckpieces. The
contrast of black velvet with sheer
white materials is very elegant The
velvet is introduced in way to make
it easily detached when the collar

charms of these neckpieces- lies in tho
fact that they return from the wash

Coats for either day or evening wear
must be carefully designed to fit into
the scheme of things, which varies
with the order of the day.
Two conservative models of coats
which are suited to any dress occa-
sion are pictured here. Taking them
as a guide. the individual may supply
details which will emphasize the ex-
tremer modes in collars and sleeves
md trimmings The designs as shown
are elegant and not too difficult for
the faithful copyist.
The straight-hanging coat of ivory
white chiffon broadcloth has wide
boxplait across the back, which
makes folded panel from neck to
hem. A narrower plat is laid at each
side of it and is stitched down to the
belt line. There is wide collar of
marteri fur which may be turned high
up about the neck, and bands of the
same fur finish the cuffs. A cleverly
designed belt effect is achieved by set
ting the side pieces of the eoat-skirt
in at the waist line. which is long and
defined by piping of black satin.
This gives flare to the skirt. The
upper edge of the belt is pointed and
.pipad with satin, and the body is made
full at the front, fastening little to
one side.

of doing q little amateur detective work
on the case himself. In the train to town
they discuss the murder, which was com

from Cazalet that Scruton, who had been
Cazalet's friend and the scapegoat for
Craven's dishonesty, has been released
from prison. Cazalet goes down the
river and meets Blanche. Toye also
comes to see her and tells Cazalet that
Scruton has been arrested, but as he
doesn't believe the old clerk is guilty he
is going to ferret out the murderer.

home and meet Mr.. Drinkwater of Scot

The latest neckwear pieces, antici-
pating the holiday demand, are among
the most tempting things displayed
In the shops. Crepe georgette. as
well as organdie and batiste, has been
employed for making new neckwear,
and fine yoile is exploited in this best
of fields. for its sheerness and dainti-
ness. Both these fabrics, fragile as
they look, are remarkably strong and
worthy the careful needlework that
claims attention as the best possible
decoration for them.
Hemstitching, featherstitching,
groups of tiny tucks, and shocking
are charmingly in keeping with the
fine fabrics used. Narrow knife plat
ing, also, with hemstitched edges,
makes an exquisite finish for collars
and cuffs. Much of the needlework is
done by hand, but hemstitched edges
or lines are usually machine-made and
enter into the composition of nearly
all neckpieces.
When laces are used, very narrow
sluny, crocheted laces and tatting pro-
vide the best choice. but the palmer
finishes seem to be preferred

CHATTER VII.
FineerPrints.

Hilton Toye was the kind of Ameri-
can who knew London as well as most
LsondOners. 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; bHttit was
quite impossible to deduce main in
sdustry from the by-products of his
leyel-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
sive phraseology of his less enllght-
ened countrymen; naturally sincere,
and yet always capable of some in
genuous duplicity.
The appeal of Blanche Macnair to
such soul needs no analysis. She
had struck through all complexities to
the core. such as 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-
ton 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 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 late breakfast in Jer-
myn street. Toye sent in his card and
