get a lawyer Of my own when 1 need
one."
"Tll come around this afternoon and
gee you again." he said coolly. "a few
hours in the Tombs will make YOU see
things differently"
!. few minutes later I found myself
ensconced in a cell again, still conf
dent of my speedy release, but some
what puzzled as to what would be my
best method of procedure. 1 was un-
acquainted with any lawyers; in fact,
with any one in the whole city with
whom could consult. My immediate
hope lay in my friend, Detective Cor
man. There was nothing for me to do
but to wait until heard from him.
Fortunately l had had the fore
thought when the detectives were ar
resting me to take from its hiding
place in the bookcase my little hoard
of money. This enabled me to send
out of the prison and have a luncheon
brought in. Making myself as COM
Portable as possible, I sat down to wait
for German, occupying my mind mean
while with thinking of Barbara Brad
ford.
The thing uppermost in my mind
was how to prevent her from being in
any way involved. She must never
know that only by her testimony would
I be able to prove an alibi Should
she ever realize this, 1 knew that her
sense of justice would make her come
forward and tell the truth, even
though 1t meant the loss of her own
reputation and the scandalizing of all
her acquaintances. She must not be
permitted to talk.
She must not even try to see me
while I was in prison.
The one way-the only way-I saw
by which I could escape from the laws
tolls without duplicating her was
through the speedy rounding up of the
band of criminals who I was positive
were responsible for Miss Lutan's
murder as well as for all our troubles
was relying on German to do this.
A keepers voice interrupted my
chain of thought

room" he said. There is a visitor fol

me at his announcement. I knew O.

checks are used. Long waists and
apron skirts constitute the features.
One is of navy blue and white plaid
gingham barred with green. A straight
skirt is gathered to the long chemise-
like waist. Both the back and front
apron panels are gathered to wide
sash. This sash is not stitched firmly
to the dress, but merely caught by
few threads at either side in both
back and front. To produce an even
longer wasted effect it ties low on the
hips.
Dotted swiss-always a favorite-is
used more than ever this year. The
colors in these are exquisite. First.
comes the practical navy blue. finely
dotted with white. So much in demand
are frocks developed from this that
the ready-made models are sold almost
as soon as they arrive in the shops.

organdie Peeps Out.
While making underslips Of cotton
materials for silk dresses is not new,
this summer it is used by the best de-
signers to a greater extent than ever.
The most delightful taffeta dresses
have organdie underslips which show
at the sides, where the dresses are
often slit, at the hem, and peep out as
guimpes and undersleeves. They are
the freshest and most crisp-looking
dresses that can be imagined.
A black taffeta frock created by a
distinguished American designer is
made over a slip of very pale pink or
candle. The skirt is cut shorter at
either side to reveal the organdie slip.
The absence of the taffeta at the sides
gives the effect of a panel in both back
and front The organdie slip is again
, visible in the form of little under
sleeves, ending just above the elbow,
: and a guimpe, both of which are trim

Lingerie frocks will be more popular
this summer than ever before, accord
ing to a prominent fashion correspond
ent The designs are very simple, fine
handwork trimmings furnishing their
principal charm. Many of them are of
the chemise type with trimmings of
drawn threads and hemstitching. When
they are made with a waistline 1t is
placed low on the hips.
The short sleeve is so comfortable
for warm weather that it will prevail
for the summer, but fashion leaders
believe that it's life is almost spent
and that we may expect long sleeves
in the autumn. Such sleeves as are
long at the present time are usually
of the flowing type.
In materials, voiles, batistes, cotton
crepes, dotted swisses, ginghams and
organdies are used, as well as hand
kerchief and heavy linens. The last
named are not quite as popular as the
thinner materials, because the present
mode is for soft and dainty effects and
the heavy linens are not adaptable to
these. Handkerchief linen is now so
sheer and fine that it is almost like
voile. The tints in both the voiles and
the linens are very delicate.
A Soft, Blue Linen.
One shade of blue in which the
sheer handkerchief linen may be OBJ
tanned is perfectly lovely. 1t is a
soft blue tinged with red The frock
made of this blue linen is good exam

fabric itself. The knife-plaited skirt is
very short and has jabot ruffes laid In
fine plaits with an inch-wide hem hem
stitched in white thread. Frills on
the waist are trimmed in the same way
and hemstitching finishes the short
sleeves. A soft linen sash is knotteG
about the waist This model is equally
effective when developed in delicate
pink linen.

time, this apparently has not been
found true in practice.
Four-Horse Teams Preferred.
The greater number of four-horse
teams and even some five-horse teams
on 14-inch sulky plows for fall plow-
ing is accounted for by the fact that
plowing in the fall is usually about one
inch deeper than in the spring, and
also by the fact that the ground is gen.
orally dry and hard TO turn. On an
average, outfits of the same size cover
about a half acre less per day in the
fall than in the spring, due not only
to the more difficult conditions men,
toned above, but also to the fact that
the time spent in the field is about two
thirds of an hour less per day in the
fall.
AS is the case in spring plowing, the
14-inch plow seems to cover practi-
cally as much ground per day as the
16-inch size. provided both are drawn
by the same number of horses. The
addition of the fourth horse increases
the efficiency of the unit by about 10
per cent and the addition of the fifth
horse to the 16-inch plow results in
similar increase. Excepting under
favorable conditions, q sulky plow
seems to be somewhat of an overload
for three horses of the size and type
used on these farms.
Many Gang PIows Used.
Over 450 men reported using horse
drawn gang plows on their farms.
About so per cent Of these plows have
14-inch bottoms. Most of the remain
ing plows have 12-inch bottoms. Some
plows with 13-inch bottoms were re-
ported, but the number was so small
that no figures on their performance
/ are given. Over three-fourths of the
men who use gang plows also reported
the use of sulky plows.
A comparison of an average days
work for 16-inch sulky plows and 2S-
inch gang plows shows that so far as
horse labor is concerned the gang pillow
drawn by four horses is the most eff
cient unit in both spring and fall. In
the spring this outfit covers one and a
quarter acres per day per horse, while
both the sulky plow drawn by three
horses and the gang plow drawn by five
horses cover one acre per day pei
horse. The gang plow drawn by 81,
horses covers but nine-tenths of ar
acre per horse.
In the fall four horses with the gans
plow cover 1.02 acres per horse, while
three horses on the sulky plow ant
five horses on the gang plow cover 81
acre and 81 acre per horse, respec
lively. Four horses on the sulky plov
and six horses on the gang plow covel
~ and rs acre per horse, respectively
However, the gang is evidently {
heavy load for four horses in the fall
excepting under favorable conditions
The 28-inch gang pillow Is a somewha
heavier load for six horses, the mos
popular-sized team used in the fall
than is the 16-inch sulky for fou
horses, but is a lighter load than tn
16-inch sulky for three horses.
As far as man labor is concerned

Chinese yellow crepe with design
in blue is used for another chemise
frock. The belt is made from braided
strands of blue cotton cord. Both of
these models, although very simple. are
extremely effective.

important trimming features, the ruff

Summer Gowns
Soft and Dainty

A straight-line dress of pale yellow
voile has deep tucks encircling the
skirt. Threads are drawn in the tucks
to give the effect of a looped fringe.
The upper portion of the dress is per-
fectly plain except for large fichu
collar of the voile similarly fringed.
The sleeves are very short, ending
several inches above the elbow, and
are edged with double fringe of the
voile. An inch-wide navy blue velvet
ribbon girdles the frock. This model
is quite as lovely developed in pale
lavender voile and girdled with mauve-
gray velvet.
Plaids and Checks.
This summers gingham frocks are
charming in the colors and patterns
of the materials as well as in the de-
signs. Both large and small plaids and
