 I couldn't face Mort just then, couldn't! I crawled back into bed closed my eyes. If he came in would pretend to be asleep, that had heard nothing. But he did not disturb me, I heard him go into his den, shut the door. For q long time I waited, with out thinking, scarcely breathing. Then f heard him moving about, after that there was silence. He was sleeping on the divan. .s-.
 Assured that he would not come in the room, sat up and tried to put things together. What a confident fool I had been. I knew bootleggers were making a great deal of money by talk ing all sorts of risks. No one who read the papers could fail to realize this. Mort's sudden prosperity, his refusal to explain anything to me, the big rolls of money, the rough men-all this pointed to but one thing. And now what had just happened
 Little as I knew came very close to the truth when decided he had found it unsafe to deliver the liquor where he had intended to and so had brought it to the house. But what a risk ! Suppose he had been watched! The stuff couldn't remain in the cellar. The servants, the children might discover ] it at any time. At the thought of the children I shuddered. Theft father a bootlegger, a law-breaker! They must never know. Mort must give it up at once. But would he?

A Bandage For Heads, Heels And Feet! WTHEN Larry Field fell out of the WY apple tree and cut his head his mother had the worst time in the world trying to make the bandage stay on.
 It was after his head was beginning to mend and the need of daily dress ings had been reduced to two instead 'of eight. ,,
 Larry was as active as most small boys, in spite of his injured head, and he was forever coming to his mother with the bandage in one hand and the dressing in the other, his badly lac erated scalp exposed to the sun.
 This worried her.

Around the curve with infinite care and along the straightaway she directed the course ; then, as they drew up to large, old. fashioned house, she gave the word to stop. It was her. hand that rang the bell and aroused sleepy-eyed maid who grew white and round-eyed as Donsen carried his patient through the door. way. But the maid proved to be very efficient as phoning for the nearest medical man and getting hot water and 1 dressings ready as Donsen directed. | And she stood by, assisting both doc. tors when they set about finishing the repair work that Donsen had begun out on the road. He was too busy for many hours to notice that the women who had brought him here had vanished as soon as he was inside the house but in the gray light of another day as he left the injured man to the local l doctors care, he thought of the woman thought of the whole strange per formance-and wondered.

 L Gathering all my courage, and I had need of it, went to his den. He was awake, as I was sure he would be. It was not natural for him to sleep with all that stuff in the house.

 There was no mistake, though the lips were smiling, the cheeks rosy and soft with youth. The artist who had painted the likeness had done his work well.
 "Nho--who--is she?''
 The maid turned at the question, her eyes, like Donsen's, lifted to the DOT trait--

 ''Deadr' It was all ,ponsen could say at the moment.

 For long time after the maid had gone out and closed the door Donsen sat on the side of the bed gazing at 1 past belief, yet, there was the injured man, there was the portrait. and here was Donsen, himself. He gave it up--for the present, at least. Again that sense of utter weari. ness swept over himk The bed was softly inviting. He was wellnigh ex- hausted,. and this afternoon he must relieve the local doctor. This evening he would have to run in on Claymore.
 The portrait looked down at him, but he had ceased to look up now---for, not waiting to undress, he had yielded to nature, and he slept.

Some Conceits Suggested For
 The Hair
Rx JANET WINSLOW

HNHE heroine of the old-fashioned
 novel always wore a white mus
 lin dress with a blue sash and tucked a shy rose into her beautiful tresses. These costume details have I withstood the test of time, for they are being worn with up-to-date vari. ations right at the present time.
 The artificial flowers which the Twentieth century girl uses to deco rate her bobbed locks challenges the claim to loyeliness fthe single gor- geous rose beloved by the winsome heroines of olden times. They are an amazing lot of blooms, strange in color and in shape. Instead of in. dulging in the futile pastime of paint ing the lily the designers have batiked the cactus and showered the thistle with silver and frosting.
 Limp stems of silver and gold are left to wind around the hair, thus serving the double purpose of keeping the front locks ih becoming array and at the same time holding the cluster of flowers at the crucial point. With the shingled ones this point is usually half way toward the back on the right side and leaves or smaller blossoms nestle at the hair line in the middle of the back.
 A hair ornament of this kind or one similarly placed helps lot to balance the close line of the shingle when you wear evening dress. When the boyish bob first appeared some of the prophets of woe went so far as to say that we shingled ones would have to take tC | wearing wigs with evening dresses because of the awkward line of the close crop. Deftly placed hair erna' ments have saved the situation.
 Among the newest hair decorations is an American beauty rose each petal of which is fringed with narrow ostrich in the same shade. For the pofmsettia having tiny gilt knobs for a center Small silvered quills ranged round and round the outer edge of a silver daisy | form another unusual hair ornament
 sOne of the latest fancies is to wear two flowers of exotic character, ont nestled in your hair and another posed on the shoulder of your evening frock l Clusters of camellias are worn in thit way and one pair of pOisies which saw placed in this fashion looked lik, gardenias in shape but were made oi l gold oilcl0th.
 Black lace is wired into rose peta formation for another smart head dress. The centers are suggested bI jet beading. A dress trimming alst makes use of wired lace for the rosei which form the corsage and soft rub Der stems hang in uneven lengths some of them reaching to the bottom of the skirt. Realistic, dangerous looking thorns appear along tn, stems, like the clown's rubber dagge they need not cause you any alarm.

ages for little injured feet and hands.
 Triangular bandages are better for wounded heads than the complicated wrappings of yards of bandages in in- experienced hands.
 Sometimes a piece of unbleached mus lin may seem either large enough nor small enough for any specific use. Wash and iron it and cut it into a squnre or triangle. It will always come in handy, If only for a sling for a vaccinated arm that is painful and needs support.
 Mothers who anticipate the need of bandages and first aid requirements are seldom in a state of hysteria when the hour of need arrives.
