much damage she had already accom- plished she could not even guess, and with an inarticulate exclamation. she turned and fled. Nor did she stop running until she was well beyond the corner. and had turned into Broadway.
 There she paused in the doorway of a building and gave herself up to fit of laughter, but not for long. because she realized that the owner of her unhappy choice of names would return, and he would be most lilIelJ to search the imme- diate neighborhood.
 Boarding a surface car that stopped conveniently near her building she com- posed herself in a corner seat and gave her mind up to a thousand thoughts that crowded in upon her, each one demand ing attention and consideration.
 It was all very well to laugh over a chance name, and the results that would meet an unknown man upon his return to the garage. but there were more se rious things afoot than speculating on who Joe Anderson might be. Susie would want to know what she had done with Ballins' body, hundred other questions the woman, Frances knew, would ask, and she must be prepared to answer them.
 If she could only take Judge Crane into her secret This would end a mass of difficulty. Together they could plan a way out that would throw Susie com pletel off the track. alone. Frances felt sense of incompleteness when she con- sidered meeting the master mind with only her own resources to rely upon.
 Coming to a sudden decision, she rose to her feet and left the car. Once on the street she made her way rapidly to the middle of the block and entered a drug store She was in search of telephone, she smiled as her eye chanced upon half dozen booths that stood against the wall 10 the left of the door. Frances entered one of these and dropped a coin in the little slot, waited moment then gave Judge Cranes telephone number to central, who answered her call with brief Number. please?"

 Frances had little idea of where she was going. The car might be on it's way to Brooklyn, Long Island. even New Jer- sey, almost anywhere, and suppose there were no stops on the way, how could she snatch a chance of escape. Of course she could always resort to the final means that of stopping the driver and explaining why she mad become his passenger. but this was not the very last thing she wanted to do. He might ask too many questions, and they might be too per sonal. No, she must find some other way out
 Out of the frying pan into the fire" she mused to herself, laughing quietly at the predicament into which she had will fully jumped Well, the best way is to wait and find out"
 Some ten minutes after the start had been made the machine drew to q halt, then slowly rolled into a garage, or so Frances judged as she saw the walls of building close around them.
 This isn't so very bad" she consid- cred, If I can wait until the chauffeur goes, I can slip out somehow"
 She felt the car being backed into it's place, then the driver, without thinking to glance into the interior of the machine, snapped off his motor and lights and climbed from his seat. He made some cas-
 
 sounds of their voices dwindled in the dis tances and Frances was left alone to open the door with careful fingers and set her feet on the slippery floor of the garage.
 Here she waited listening intenty, but only the indistinct hum of voices, com ing from the entrance of the place reached her ears. Boldly she approached the door, then turned behind a machine, edged around this and walked toward the doornan
 T want to find out if there is chauf- feur here by the name of Joe AndersonY Frances asked, choosing her excuse and the name of her fictitious friend upon the spur of the moment.
 The doorman looked up in surprise and for moment it was evident that he was wondering how the girl had entered with out his seeing her
 Yes he answered unexpectedly. Hes upstairs, shall I call him?'
 In, consternation Frances was on the point of flight, when another voice. com ing from little room at the watchman's back, relieved the tension of her strained nerves.
 Someone want Joe Anderson" it asked. Hes gone out. But he'll be back in about ten minutes"
 T won't wait" Frances murmered, signing with relief at thus escaping the owner of that unfortunate name. Just tell him Frances was here. I'll see him when he comes home.'
 As she finished speaking a surprised face poked itself out of the doorway of the little room and a man gazed into Frances eyes in open astonishment "When he comes home?" the newcomer repeated. ''Why-why, the old son of gun" The girl waited to hear no more, how

EGYPTIAN JEWELS
 SET NEW FASHION
Marvellous Collection Dating 1000 Years Before Christ on Exhibi-
 tion in New York
sy Associatsd Pres.

New York. January 3o.-Crown jewels of the Princess Sat-Hathor-Iunut daughter of Senuseret who ruled Egypt 1000 years before the time of Christ, and which are on exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum or Art, apparently have set new fash ion in necklaces brooches and rings for those who patronize Fifth avenue shops.
 The collection now on display was found in the tomb of the ancient royalty which was unearthed by Prof. w M Flinders Petrie im 1914. Although only one blue bead remained on the sarcophagus as reminder of the Egyptian kings daugh- ter, yet the jewel casket and contents inside were found intact. It was recently purchased by the museum for a large sum.
 Among the costly baubles of the Prin- cess are shining pectorals of the deepest lapis 1azuli and dainty amulets of dark carnelian popular in the years now lost in misty past Her favorite amethyst necklaces as well as smaller jewel cases and ungent jars are narvels of artistry and skilled workmanship.

SHOES
 USED IN BALKANS
Experiences of War Leading People to Abandon the Soft Sandals
 of Old
By AssecIatsd Pres.

By Associated Press
 Fetch, Montenegro, January Z-Amerl- canization of the footwear of the Bal kans within few years may be one of the unexpected results of the war. The Serbian sandal or opanchi, of soft pliable leather was abandoned when Serbia was compelled to call upon the allies for equipment, for only the stiff shoe, to which western European and American armies were accustomed, was available. Now, after having been habituated to the modern shoe. the Serbian soldier upon demobilizatio finds it difficult to return to the primi- tive sandal.
 Suplies of old shoes gathered in America which were distributed re- gently by the American Red Cross were snatched up by the peasant with avidity. American business already has begun to exploint this new source of demand so that a few more years probably will see the Balkan peasant wearing Ameri- can shoes.
 The war has dealt the venerable head gear of the Montenegrin a telling blow
 More than 500 years ago, in 1889, those Serbs who were driven to take refuge from the Turk in the mountains of Montenegro after the overthrow of the Serbian Empire at the Battle Of Kossovo adopted cap which was ln- tended to keep fresh in their minds forever a national consciousness. The cap still worn to this day is brimless and bordered by black band of mourn ing The crown is a crimson red for the blood which was shed in the battle and embroidered about the edge are six gold d-threaded circles for the six cen turies which have elapsed since 1889.
 Some now have discarded the cap for. now that Montenegro and the Serbs have come into the glory which was theirs before Kossovo, there seems to many of them to be no reason for the perpetuation of the sentiment which the cap was calculated to keep alive through the period of diversity of the nation.
