THE ESCAPE.

1t had been a bad time for the boy
and the girl adventurers when they
thought that they might be carried
away in Mr.. Moving Mans trunk.
"Why do you want to put us in the
trunk?' the girl had asked.
eve might find you could sell for
good deal at the market" the old
man had said.
"Well won't you go in that way,
please?" the boy had asked, pointing
in the direction Of the Hospitality
Hotel.
"No sir" the old man had replied,
"He hates that way" Miss Rolling
Stone, or Mrs. Moving Man had said.
She could be called by both names
correctly.
Hes mad, you see, because he
didn't get to the House of Secrets.
He doesn't want any one else to get
there. He didn't want the long
journey there"
The boy looked at the girl. They
didn't know what to do. They were
held tight and they looked at the now
wlde-open trunk. They couldn't bear to
think they would be carried around in
IT, bumped this way aud that, and
perhaps suffOcated too, and yet they
couldn't but believe that they would
somehow get back to the real road
again so they could so on to the
House of Secrets
And we were to 60 to the Hos
pitality Hotel this very evening" said
the boy, 81 believe it's almost time"
"Oh," said the girl suddenly, then
she added very softly, I'm free. Miss
Rolling StoIe has gone TO sleep
standing up! Oh, you're free too.
Let's hurry" The old man had begun
to snOre.
They hurried down the road, run
ming as hard as they could. They got
well out of sight of the old man and
woman
weren't they horrible?" asked the
boy.
But how strange that they should
fall asleep so suddenly" said the girl.

clever trimming of an embroidered
band somehow manages to simulate a
short cape. The scarf ends, and also
those Of the long and narrow glrdle,
are finished with ball trimming.
The cape-coat, or mantle, at the right
is another example of skillful design
ing in which the body of the garment,
with dolman sleeves cut in it, is set
onto a deep cape. Turned-back cuffs,
ornamented with rows of machine
stitching, bespeak the most paiLstak-

tons defining the shoulder line bear
out this testimony. The scarf ends
support handsome and dlgnified silk
tassels. Both coats have inconspicu-
