Those servants! What was the matter
with them? One day Marie, driven by lone
liness, had approached in friendly fashion
Mrs. Dunbarton-Kents personal maid, :
bright faced, intelligent looking girl, who
had ventured upon the grass plot between
the house and the garage. Tho girl had
started convulsively and had almost run
back to the house; she had looked fright.
ened out Of her wits. Marie had been cut
to tho quick; she had retreatsd to the garage
with the tears burning her eyes. II was
80 utterly unaccountable! The attempts at
rough lovemaking on the part Of the chauf-
feurs troubled Marie far less than the con-
duct Of the Kent House servants, for she
had met with that sort Of thing before and
felt quite able to defend herself But to be
feared and avoided when she had done moth,
ing to deserve 1t!
She was utterly lonely and miserable.
What did it all mean? 1t had never been
20 in any other place where she had been:
always her smile had been answered BY
smiles. "Were 1t not for the good pay /
would leave tomorrow! Marie confided to
herself passionately. 1t 10 - II I had
committed a crime!"
But she was compelled by necessity. She
had been Mortified by the high cost of living
in New York. Her hundred dollars would
last her only q short time In that place.
And her experience with the Kent House
servants gave her terror OF working In
any household capacity; the other servants
might make life unbearable. No, she must
cling to her present position until she had
saved enough to feel independent Then.
when not utterly miserable, she was stub
bornly determined to behave as II she was
<n ali
Fortunately, during the day Marie had
little time for repining; there was 90 much
to do But when night came 1t was hard.
Then she sat in her room and thought. In
the darkness she could sit close to the win
dow and could re Breck sitting in his win
dow and studying. Marie felt certain h
was studying Even when his window
shades were down she could see his silhouette
cast upon the shade. In a way 1t was COM
forting to feel that some one beside herself
was lonely; he seemed quite apart from his
family.
She wondered endlessly about him. What
was the dreadful experience during the war
which had made lonely sort Of him? Such
q war experience should have made his fam
lily sympathetic It was strange with this
family; they were highly respected, that was
evident, and their servants were devoted to
them, yet no member Of the family seemed
to have any love for any other member.
Bella spent days at time in the city. Marie
knew because she was constantly driving
her to and from the station, duty which
she dreaded, for, though muffled to the eyes
in a fur coat which concealed all but her un.
usual height, Bella's eyes looked cold con.

little better than an insult, Marie thought

But Marie proved adamant; she reared the
huge collar OF her fur coat against friend and
zoe and turned contemptuous back upon
them.
During nine days time Marie was literally

Kent had defied custom; she was trying to
establish precedent. And she had put that
little feminine tot Of hers into trousers OF

but think Of turning over ones garage to a
girl, and such baby at that! And this at

ANKLES TAB0OED
 IN FAVOR OF ARMS

ASCOT, July 11.-Ankles are now taboo, but one may feast their eyes upon shapely, and unshapely, arms to their hearts content.
 Ascot styles this season, if today'a showing is any criterion, demand that the ankles, of which we have seen so much, must be hidden be- meath long skirts. Arms have come out of captivity, however, and the majority of the gowns seen upon this famous and aristocratic race course are either totally sleeveless or have sleeves which are flowing and slash ed widely from elbow to shoulder.
 Queen Mary, the longtime cham pion of the long skirt, has met with success. Perhaps it is due to the edicts of French modistes more than to the queen, but at any rate the gowns are long skirted. But how the arms have blossomed out! It is a matter of choice now whether the ankle or the arm is more pleasing to the eye.
 Many of the long -skirted gowns are set off with flowing cape effects, and the hats are all wide and floppy brimmed, with the exception of that worn by the queen, who always af- fects the toque.
 Orkendie is the favorfte material for Ascot gowns-and such organ dies, all in delicate tints of lemon, blush pink, sky blue. Crepe maro-

PARIS, July 11.-"Beware of dues and vicomtes, not to mention duch- esses and marquises."
 It has been proposed to placard that warning in all hotels which Americans and other travellers frequent, espe- cially hotels near the opera, following the arrest of Jose Terol, alias Vicomte Romero, whose career in high society cost several guests of leading hotels hugs sums of money and no little humiliation. t'AHfzs FIFE !E51
 The "vicomte" always registered at the best hotels. His charming per sonality and fascinating, although somewhat condescending manner won him innumerable friends, espe- cially among American society women. Ambitious mothers cultivated him. Ambitious fathers were induced to in vite him to dinner. He was under stood to be eligible and an excellent match. ~
 But he wore sneakers"
 ~ The "Vicomte" was shy and went out very little. He preferred to give parties in the large, expensive dining rooms of the large, expensive hotels he chose as his residence. He invited to his parties all the admiring young women, chaperoned by the ambitious mothers and the no less ambitious fathers.
 But someone mentioned the sneak CTS" to the police.
 The "Vicomte' was considered ec- centric which added to his charms. Every once in a while he would dis appear. It was especially commented upon that, during parties, he would excuse himself from the table and remain away, sometimes an hour or so. returning suddenly and silently on his rubber-soled tennis shoes that appeared so interestingly inconqruous with evening clothes.
 But the police decided to investi- gate the reason for the "sneakers.'
 The "Vicomte" spoke seven Ian gnages and was voted tremendously clever and observant. He. failed to notice. however, that in the last three hotels in which he had been a "prom- inent guest" number of the servants moved from hotel to hotel at the same time he did.

Yes, in derd the sunshade is in favor, safely ensconsed on the pedestal of English racing fashions by the queen and Princess Mary, who both appeared at the derby with beautiful blue sun shades
 Lines of the throat and shoulder, in Ascot gowns, are generously dis played, boatshaped collars giving this effect. When there are sleeves they are wide and flowing, slashed literally, and often there are side panels that droop slightly below the hem of the skirt on each side.
 Hand bags have again become a necessity to the well-dressed women, dainty little bags of cloth or silver being most popular among those who crowd the grandstands.
 Fresh flowers are being used pro fusely by both men and women. The king and the Duke of York have re- vived the boutonniere.
