nee with the LOOK She had given TIE
day she first came, as If searching In
vain for something she did not find.
BY the time the filing cabinet had
come Daphne had been there ten days,
and Stanley Higgins had missed as
many good nights sleep. The question
had presented itself to him almost
from the first. She was the most
beautiful and most lovely woman he
had ever seen; there was no question
about that.
The question was, having found such
a creature was there anything to do
about it but what men naturally did
under the circumstances, make an eff
fort to marry her? BY the tenth day
he had decided that there was but one
answer to the question. If she re-
fu sed, then she would have to leave
his employ. He calmly made up his
mind to ask her bluntly whether she
would have him. He was far too busy
to go about il with the usual dallying
and too smltten to brook further de-
lay.
He arrived earlier than usual the
morning of the day when he planned
10 make his plea. and, as IL to steady
himself against the ordeal, he took the
put It the first day. Attached to IT
was the recommendation that had
come from Miss Wlggln which he had
never read before.
He glanced at it, first casually, then
gripping the paper read with bated
breath the slip which, with printed
blanks filed in, ran something like
this:
Height, sc, colorlng, natural
blonde dark gray eyes; size foot, 8,
but shapely; gloves 81, but slender;
waist, %; bust, full, 49, arms, slight
ly short. Willing to pose for cloaks?
Yes. Furs? Yes. Hats? Yes. Lin
gerie and corsets? Definitely not

ing last pace-not good mixer;

So preoccupied was Stanley Higgins
with the perusal Of this sheet that he
did not recall that the original of the
brief description was standing before
him.

If it is true as reported that fifty
four of the l. W. w. anarchists were
taken to the atlantic coast for the pur
pose of deporting them from this

conspirators against our institutions
and our National existence itself.
We have laws against the admission
OF such enemies to our shores. Some OF
these are thus barred OFT, but others
slip through. They are here. They
are doing their utmost TO incite in the

TO destroy.
