THE MILLINERY FOR SPRING
Half Cloths End Straw AIlovers Among
First Fabrics Making
Appearance

Half cloths and straw allovers are
among the first fabrics to make their
appearance for the early spring mil
linery season, and these are being
shown in the dark colors for the most
part, made up into tailored types.
while the southern lines show the
brilliant colors in faille and taffeta
There are new combinations and
weaves appearing in these straw
cloths, and one Of the latest is the
Persian haircloth that carries the reds
and greens and touches of tinsel
thread through it, but through which
the black predominates. Then there
are nacre haircloths that are very
good looking, used almost entirely for
draped toques OF rolls on crown or
brim.

lay before him, and glanced at the
title, "The Ragionamenti of the Dr.

it when the doorbell rang.
BARLEY glanced up at the sound
and said, "That must be Rogers"
The next moment Rance, bowling
as he always did in announcing any
one, ushered Rogers into the room.
Rogers had been at the head of the
Central Office for about five years. In
that time he had built up for himself
the finest reputation that any city
detective had ever had. He was not
a brilliant man, nor, fne Chat matter,
an, educated one, bue Ells rare COM
mon sense and his absolute honesty
had won for him the respect of the
people of the city.
He took a chair, and after saying,
"Hello, john" to BARLEY and a word
to me, he took cigar from the box
that BARLEY pushed over to him.
Then, leaning across the table, he
picked up one Of the volumes. The
book fell open at a picture; he start
ed as he looked at it, then handed it
to me with sly wink.
"That's fine sort of book to
show an honest and moral police Off
Ger. If found bookseller on the
Avenue with one. I would have him

BARLEY swung around in his chair,
saw which book 1t was. and laughed.
