STYLE HINTS
Ribbon Hats.

Ribbon Hats.
Ribbon trimmed hats were never more
popular than now. Satin, MORE, picot-
edged, double-faced and brocaded rib
bons are used to fashion the soft little
hats that are SC becoming. If the hat it
self ise of velvet or silk it is quite likely
to have a large ribbon bow for trim
ming.
In Red Velvet.
A red velvet gown is given festive
appearance by the addition of clusters
of grapes made of silver cloth The
drapelry is caught up on enc side and
one sided train offsets 1t on the other.
Velvet Bracelets.
Rraace1ets of black velvet ribbon with
buckles of rhinestones. pearls or dia-
mondss or of a combination OF diamonds
and sapphires are a new ccnceit for
evening wear.
An attractive suit of mustard-colored
duvesyn is made with very narrow
skirt and a flaring coat. The coat is
trimmed with many inch bands OF seal
fur and seal buttons.
Beaded TUNES.
Readed tunics continue in popularity
and are a good addition for any ward
robe for they may be worn ever differ
emf colored slips to give quite different,
effects and they make a wardrobe seem
mOreS extensive than II fedIlS Is.
Ruffles Again.
Small ruffles, suggestive of femininity
and frivolty, are used effectively on
nar1v frocks of georgette and taffeta for
the sub deb. Frequently they offer the
only attempt at decoration.
skirt Lengths.
Short Jackets Of brown caracul are eff
fectjvelv worn with brown velvet or
d,,Ietvn one-piece dresses. A narrow.
straight skirt. escaping the ground by
from five to eight inches. gives the best
line with the short fur coat.
Evening Costume.
One Of the most lovely evening gowns
axnioIted on Broadway Is Of silver
clcth. gracefully draped. and beaded
ri+b the tintest of cut steel beads.
Bronze Slippers.
Bronze slippers are seen in number
~ attractive shapes. adorned with the
49, tongue and buckle effects. The
r,ost elaborate ones are beaded on the
+oe and some are beaded about the
heel.
White satin IS no longer exclusively
+or, the bride. but for the society bud and
~ noatrcn as well. Frequently 1t Is
r,oda sleeveless. and depends upon Its
.,,1o-+ness for its line and drapery.
Often It it beaded with white or colored
beads.

Rae had been fussing with the ia j..

nothing escaped her, no matter how
slight. He had continued to watch
some time.
Suddenly a very rakish roadster
drew up and Rae looked out of the
sedan in which she was. When she
saw Glenn Buckley in the roadster
she jumped out to meet him.
Glenn greeted her with a sickiy
smile.

Rae. You must believe in ghosts

Mckay had gone properly reward

what he had just learned.
Were they the three at the Parr
estate last night-Rae, Brock and

length.

He didn't know what IL was or where
it was but he gave him a key, sir.
Mckay pointed the fellow, a

into his pocket for his ever ready
roll of bills.
Mckay seemed really offended.
"Mr. Garrick-please. 1 didn't feel

fine to me-I've driven her three

one else and had had Ruth's car
towed to a garage. They stopped
there a minute and Professor Vario's

to offer Garrick the opportunity to

Outside he found Mckay and de-

Garrick had been thinking out a
plan for the installation of the
dictagraph Up the street from
from the Inner Circle were two
houses turned into studio apart

the conversation was lucrative TO
her.
Dick selected and carried up to the
roof the apparatus and they went as
silently as possible acros the inter
vening roofs until they came to the
roof OF the Inner Circle.
1t was a curious roof. In the cen
ter had been built a great concrete
box as big as a room. There was no
time to investigate that. however.

Pink Room.
Meanwhile on the roof, Dick had
been busy placing his sending set
and Garrick helped him complete the
set-up.
As they left the studio house, two
men were passing. One of them
brushed suspiciously against Dick
with enough force to knock the bag
he was carrying out of his hand.
Garrick controlled his temper. Here
were the mysterious shadows
again. Were they emissaries of the
gang?
Garrick picked up the bag him.

AS they had beer at work on the
roof, they had determined on plac-

several blocks uptown.
At Bachelors Hall Dick worked
rapidly for 1t was now getting dark
in spite of the length of the days.
He unpacked the receiving end OF

Carefully and deity he began TO

difficult to get the fine adjustment.

He looked up at Garrick, smiled,
and took the headgear off. handing
it to him. Get that?"
Garrick adjusted it, listened for a
moment in some p~erplexity, then ex-
claimed. why. 1 car hear the whirr

the engine running. but well mufled,
as silent as sleeve valves could make

Ga..ick dismissed his taxi at the
corner and began to r~econnoitre. To
his amazement he saw that he was
on the block where was the town

II was an added shock when he
saw that the car had stopped just Ia

As he turned in at the gate the
man at the door heard him. looking
quickly as IL expecting him. then
catching a better look uttered all

Garrick parted and countered
The man went sprawling backward
on the bit Of turf of the little front
yard.
At that moment Garrick heard
the clatter of feet from across the
street and around the motor. But
before he could turn. the other man
was on him. bearing him down with
the momentum OF the rush. He was
a husky but Garrick felt he could
outwrestle him.
The fellow sprawled OF the turf
swore again as he crouched up on
his hands and knees. waiting to get
a hold.
Two were more than Garrick
could handle as legs and arms and
heads cut the turf. getting ever
nearer the sharp pickets OF the
