UOSELESS LIMBS VOGUE
 WITH FRENCH RESORTERS

Deauyiue. Sept. 35.-The stock tuglass craze which has become ra- mfUar on the beach of Deauville as now penetrated the Casino. Groups of uewly-arriyed Americans can be seen in the baccarat room of the Doauvile Casino every evening de- batting whether the young lady play ing at a nearby table or promenad ing from a group of spectators at one table 10 another is really wear ing marvelously matched fesh-color- ed silk hose. or whether her limbs are garbed in natures tan.
 The fact that in the majority of cases lack of stockings is not even noticed is ample evidence that the pioneers of this new style of even ing dress are generally using the greatest care that their entire cos. tunes be in harmony with the gen uiue flesh tint.
 The vogue of the 1esh-colored silk hosiery has made it an easy step to the entire omission of any stockings at all. Contrasts are being avoided, and the bare limbs are in. yariably in harmony with silver or lght-coIored silk slippers, as well as a soft cream or tan evening gown
 "Why not?" demanded an Ameri can girl stopping at the Hotel Nor mandy. when her scandalized moth. CT objected 10 the adoption of the mode introduced by some of the Parisiennes at the Casino. This is q Summer resort, isn't it? And sill hose cost on an average of three times as much in France as they dc at home,"

Washington, Sept. 25.-W. Irving Glover, third assistant Postmaster General, replied today to criticisms reported in some quarters of the proposed changes ia designs of post age stamps which the Postmaster General now has under cOnsidera- tion in the designg entirely because the best interests ct the service war rant it.
 "In response to appeals of the Postnaster-General for suggestions for the betterment of the postal service. thousands of letters sug. gesdug new issue of postage stamps have beer received from employees of the postal service, who have pointed out the advisabiIity of a more distinct variation in designs for postage stamps, as well as colors that do not possess strik- ing similarity" he said. "TLe Department knows that thousands of dollars in revenus are lost yearly in the postal service, due to striking similarity in stamps, as well as little deviation in color, which prevents postal authorities from de- tecting short pad matter. This lia- bIlity to error is increased oy can cellation which often obliterates thG uumeral on the stamps to such an extent that errors cannot be detected promptly. In fact the present issue bears so many features like that CT TOTS now made in handling mail with these stamps attached are in the majority of cases eXcusibIe. Par ucularly is this true in many of the larger postolHces, where artificial light is necessarily being used. In asmuch as the stamps from one to seven cents denominations bear the portrait of Washington and eight cent to $5 bear the portrait ot Frakliu, postal clerks cannot easily distinguish the denomination in the rapid handling of mail because of the lack of distinctive features"
 Third Assistant Postmaster Gen. craI Glover also said that the cost of tine new special stamp was very economical, the master die only cost ing the government 745S.9I, which was more than twice covered by sale of these stamps to stamp-col- lecrors for which no service was rendered.

She ran to the huddled figure Of the
man In mackinaw and cap; his face
was hidden partly by the position in
which he lay and partly. by the drift
ing snow; but. before she swept the
snow away and turned him to her, she
knew that he was Alan. .s3sM
She cried to him and, when he did
not answer, she shook him to get him
awake; but she could not rouse him.
Praying in wild whispers to herself,
she opened his jacket and felt within
his clothes; he was warm-at least he
was not frozen within! No; and there
seemed some stir Of his hearth She
tried to lift him, to carry him; then to
drag him. But she could not; he fell
from her arms into the snow again,
and she sat down, pulling him upon
her lap and clasping him to her.
She must have aid, she must get him
to some house, she must take him out
Of the terrible cold; but dared she
leave him? Might Henry return, II she
went away? She arose and looked
about. Far up the shore she saw his
figure rising and falling with his flight
over the rough Ice. A sound came to
her, too, the low, deep reverberation of
the Drum beating once more along the
shore and In the woods and out upon
the lake; and 1t seemed to her that
Henry's figure, in the stumbling steps
of his flight, was keeping time to the
wild rhythm of that sound. And she
stopped to Alan and covered him with
her coat, before leaving him; for she
feared no longer Henry's return.

Noises of the wind and the roaring
Of the lake made inaudtb!e any sound
of his approach to the cabin: she
heard his snowshoes, however, scrape
the cabin wall as, after taking them off,
he leaned them beside the door. He
thrust the door open then and came
in; he did not see her at first and, as
he turned to force the door shut again
against the wind she watched him
quietly.
He saw her now and started and,
as though sight of her confused him,
he looked from the woman and then
back to Constance before he seemed
certain Of her.
"Hello!" he said tentatively: "Hel-

1t was not merely a confessional

wrongs. If the confession left some

She had realized on her way up here
what, vaguely, that strain within him
must be. Guilt-guilt Of some awful
sort connected him, and had connected
Uncle Benny, with the Miwaka-the
lost ship for which the Drum had
beaten the roll Of the dead. Guilt was
in his thought now-racking, tearing
at him. But there was something
more than that; what she had seen in

'"The Aliwaka! What do you mean
by that? What's that got to do with
this?" His swollen face was thrust
forward at her; there was threat
against her in his tense muscles and
his bloodshot eyes.
She did not shrink back from him,
or move; and now he was not waiting
for her answer. Something's sound
had caught him about. Once 1t

when the echo had gone, 1t was SEN

Constance, as they followed the priest

Benitot, whose guest Father .Perron
was; she was very quiet. What would
that grave statement which Father
Perron2 was to make to them mean to

not known, hut whose blood was his
and whose name he now must bear,
