boxcar and had threatened wooden frame buildings in the vicinity. The
escapades of the gang decided to give them a scare, sc called out the
real, honesttogoodness patrol wagon, rushed them all off to the police sta.
ton, and held them there until Captain Sullivan arrived.
The discipline didn't work very well, though, for the boys, considering
the whole affair an exciting adventure, enjoyed themselves hugely, talking
to the detectives and officers and storing up information to retail to their
friends about the "pleece station" Everybody made pets o. them-untl the
captain came.
1t was a meek little group of Riddles that filed out of the captains
office, which they had entered with uch a swagger. Captain Sullivan, to
whom the distracted policeman had related his troubles at the hands OF the
"itle imps" made them understand a few things about endangering other
peoples property and evidently they took it to heart. Those of the boys
who had not participated in the building of the bonfire, but merely came
along as witnesses, were is chastened as the culprts. Only the two elder
boys, fourteen and fifteen years old, were held at Detention home.

that soldiers. Thus when the time for dispersal from THE prisoners camps
about the German bully would turn the rest loose to find their way
unaided and starving, into Holland and safety, but would detain the soldier
who had insulted him, and afterward secretly send the man to work in his
castle or IN his estate, where he could torture and degrade him at will.
The second reason limited at by my informant is that these men whose
whereabouts n such a mystery have, by reason of their special knowledge
or adaptablty, been put to work on undertakings the nature of which Ger
mans want to keep secret.
Although the actual fighting is over, the trade war with Germany is
only just beginning and If any of the mel in question acquired, either
accidentally or otherwise, q trade secret of any value-and such a condn-
gency is by no means an imposdbiiy-he would be kept a prisoner in secret
The third reason is somewhat similar The men are being kept prison
through the instrumentaIity of individual officers or men They have
gained some knowledge which. if disclosed, would end in terrible retribution
for the officer or man concerned.

ReIlaIon Worth having.

A religion that annot be brought
into every phase of life is not worth
having; and the affairs of life that
cannot be maintained side by side with
Christ's teachings ought to be strapped
without delay. And until the brother
hood movement rises to its responsible
ties and makes these facts plain, 1t
will fail to be the power it may be its
privilege to become.

Taupe velvet is popular, because II

Ermine is used with best effect on

beautifully combined with kolinsky
on account of the black markings
which run through the brown hairs.
