c0L0RED COLLARS IN PARIS
White Neckpieee Gives Way to Differ.
ent Welcomed Shades-striped
and Checked Ginghams.

A letter from Paris says that the
white collar has given way to u col
Ored one. Gowns of jersey, wolfe and
serge carry broad handkerchief collars
of plaid Bingham. Dark suits and one,
piece frOcks carry high, rolling col.
lars and broad, gauntlet cuffs of blue,
rose, lavender and yellow Organdie
edged with filet lace or with the or.
candle itself.
The use of brilliantly striped and
checked Bingham for entire collars has
met with approval In France, although
1t Is still question In allegiance over
here.
The prophecy Is that America will
take to these collars with engerness.
We like bingham. Whenever we get a
chance to wear 1t we rush In and al.
Cost spoil 1t by geographically.
For those who do not like the all
Bingham collars there will be naiDsook
prgandie and heavy tilet lace ones
edged with broad bands Of gingham.

Flowers on Our Hats.

The way flowers are used on the
new summer hats is attractive. Really
more ingenuity has been shown
this year by the milliners than
for several years. Sometimes large
velvet flowers are appliqued flat
against the straw or silk foundation Of
a turban or other hat. Flowers are
massed under tulle, nll over the crown
and brim. Sometimes wreath Of
flowers is used around the edge Of the
crown, with band Of tulle fastened
over them to keep them neatly In place.
Many field nowers--laisics and butter
cups, with peoples and corn flowers
are also used on the summer hats.

Although the girl did not know this,
1t was just twenty-four hours after her
capture that John Miles walked up the
steps Of the bungalow and rang the
bell.
When Jimmy and went into the
restaurant and John rang the bell of
the cottage across the street he walked
for the time being out of our ken. But
this Is what was happening to him !:
The negro servant came to the door
and protested against admitting him.
"Ain't All done tole you she amt

In the meantime Madam Gaillard
had gone down the stairway leading to
the subterranean den of rooms in one
of which Jean was hidden and in the
other of which the counterfeiters were
ut work.
Suddenly Jean heard words which
gave her new hope. A mans voice
was crying In great agitation:

hled with joy-John would save her

her Indifferent farewell to the girl: II

was an orphan-friendless and alone.
He had met her some weeks before
when first she came to act MS secretary
for the recluse who lived In the French
bungalow. He had fallen In love with
her almost at once.
II wasn't very slow about telling her
so, either. She was to get through at
Madam Gaillard's yesterday afternoon,
and she promised to meet mother and
me at the parsonage at six for q quiet
little wedding-we were going to be SO
happy.
well, got to the parsonage at six,
but Jean wasn't there. l telephoned
the bungalow, and the negro servant
said Madam Gaillard had gone to
town and might not be back till late,
and that Jean had gone without leav-
ing word where she was going.
II waited at the bungalow another
hour; then left mother there and be-
gan TO scour the country. There wasn't
a trace of her, though / hunted all
night. But now feel hopeful again"
Young Miles drove to the edge of a
grove, led his horse in and tied her.
Then he babe us wait at the restaurant
while he went to the bungalow for an
Interview with Madam Gaillard.
Jimmy and 1 walked slowly over to
the little inn and fingered long enough
to see Miles go up to the door of the
bungalow and ring the bell; then we
sauntered into the restaurant with an
air which we thought well calculated
to deceive. But there was no one to
appreciate our histrionic powers.
Presently we got extremely tired of
the vast Indifference to our presence
which prevailed and Jimmy decided to
go on little tour of investigation He
crossed over to the kitchen and van
ished for second.
Then / heard my name called with
gentle insistence and 1 ran to the
kitchen. 1 saw part of the floor jerk
ing up slowly. Evidently it was a trap
door and someone was sneaking up
from the basement with intent to come
through it. Jimmy gave me quick
order to go into the other room and
bring him tablecloth which he would
tear into strips and use to bind the ap-
preaching enemy"
By the time l got back Jimmy was
holding a man powerless at his feet.
1t did not take long to tie and gag
him.
Its the proprietor" he explained
Guard the fellow. I'm going down in
to his subterranean cavern"
And Jimmy vanished down that
opening which might so easily prove
TIC be trap for him.
Now, as waited in that dimly light
ed, cherries room, with the evil fig
ure of the restaurant proprietor lying
bound and gagged at my feet, I was
hldeously and hopelessly afraid of the
darkness into which Jimmy Barton
had vanished.
1 bent over my prisoner and ex-
amined his bonds. They held firmly.
l went over to the trap door and
opened 1t. Below lay a rickety flight of
narrow stairs, little more than lad
der. 1 gripped my gun firmly and
started down.
And now must turn back the clock
twenty-four hours and trace Jean
Moore from the moment when she gave
her happy promise to meet the man
o'clock that night to that other black
moment when she came face to face
with her first glimpse of the ugly truth
regarding Madam Gaillard.
John Miles earnest, honest wooing
had seemed to Jean to open the doors
to Paradise.
