Just as the perplexed reporter of
fashions is about to begin to describe
some fetching new fur garment as a
cape, she discovers that it has an IN
disputable claim to be called scarf.
Ard when she has decided that it be-
longs to the straightforward, upright
and downright scarf family, she finds
1t consorting with a belt, something
scarfs and capes have heretofore not
done. Eccentric and interesting
these are the terms that belong to the
small fur garments that have lent
willing ear to tales of alluring camou-
f1age this season. They look like SO
many things We finally have to call
them by the most indefinite of terms
merely garments"-they are that any
way.
Here is one of them which is a cape
so far as the back and shoulders are
concerned, a scarf so far as the front
goes, and a jacket, If We take the
belts word for it. 1t is made of Hud-
son seal and has collar of Siberian
squirrel. And this is another charac-
teristic of fur garments this season.
Hardly one of them but has two kinds
Of fur in it's makeup.
The little fur wrap shown in the
Illustration, worn with a heavy suit,
is warm enough for average winter
weather and an ideal affair for au-
tumn and early winter. Women wear
these small garments with wonderful
grace and it is no wonder that furs

months. 1t is for style-and they

possible dream, or one that would ruin
the girls life If, in some wild moment,
she made it truth.
He had his reward in Eleanor's in
creasing restraint, her quite visible in
dignation. They had fallen apart again,
after that single meeting. 1t was a
poor reward, but the sort that Mark
had received all his life from fortune.
But there were lonely nights when
life seemed unbearable, and he had to
exert all his will power to keep him
self in check. Mark had rented lit
tie furnished apartment in the North
west section, off Pennsylvania avenue,
and he had found the desert more COM
panionable.
One night he felt at the end Of his
powers. That was after grilling day
in the war office, one of those days
that sometimes come in Washington
toward the middle of September, when
everything is as sticky as the asphalt
sidewalks.
1t had been day Of evil pertent be
sides. Colonel Howard, who had
seemed of late to reflect Eleanor's
coolness in some measure, had greeted
him with a wry face when he came in.
''The DEVILS to pay, Mark" he said.
''Draw up your chair. There's leak
age in the department.
"What?" cried Mark.
'"Things are getting known-for in
stance, our dealings with the shipping
people. They've found the exact num-
Der Of ships we've requisitioned. You
know whom mean by they"
Mark nodded. The cosmopolitan in
fuences in Washington, whose ramif-
cations extended to the ends of the
earth, or, at least, across the Atlantic,
were busy in every drawing room eK-
tracing news, the tiniest and least re-
liable of which was not despised, since
many such single items make up a CO.
herent story.
"The Brigadier's wild about it." con-
tinued the Colonel, pulling at his mus
tache. "And 1T seems impossible to
detect how the leakage occurred. 1t

companies, of course; yet they couldn't
have pieced the thing together without
concerted action, which is out of the
question. Let's go through the pa
pers."
They opened the safe and went
through them one by one, but nothing
was missing.
"Damn it !" growled Colonel Howard
'T've been through this before, Mark
you know that. In that case there
was a traitor at work. We found him.
In this case there can be none, at least,
in the war department. And I've told
the Brigadier I'll answer with my place
for discovering where the leak lies"

to Kellerman's room. to return with

CHAPTER vi.

But Mark refused Colonel Howards
invitation to become his guest, and
avoided the house in Massachusetts
circle as much as he could with de-
cency. He was courageous enough to
analyze his reasons and he did not
conceal the result from himself.
He wanted Eleanor with all the pent-
up longing of the denied years in the
desert. His love was the strongest
passion that he had eves felt, and yet,
strangely for man of his years, it had
In it much more Of the paternal ele-
ment than of the lover. All his life
he had been almost kinless, his only
sister was dead, he wanted Eleanor's
presence, Eleanor with him, to see
her every day, whether as wife or
daughter Yet he was brave enough
to acknowledge that this love, selfless
In a measure, threatened to become a
consuming passion if he did not hold
hrrzself rigidIy in check.
He, the middle-aged captain, and
Eleanor, with her station, her pros
pcG..s and her beauty-it was an i'm
