ESCAPING BY A HAIR By MAURICE SMILEY. e ea——— It was no evidence of any special | shrewdness on my part ‘that I knew what Wilson was watching the train for. The papers were full of the details | of Judson’s last exploit. The trick he hac turned on this particular occasion was the lifting of a tray of diamonds | from the importing firm of Couvier Freres. The police had followed Judson pretty sharply and I knew that Wil- son must have got some tip to the effect that Judson was going to take & train for a cooler habitat—most probably the 9:40 for the west. Now, Wilson and I knew each other by sight. We had had a professional rub or two on former occasions, and I knew with what I had to deal. It just happened that I saw him get 8 telegram at the station office and that gave me two ideas which I pro; ceeded to put into effect. One was to intercept the messenger boy attached to the office, and for a quid pro quo induce him to hand to Wilson this mes- sage, scribbled on a telegraph blank: “Mr. Wilson: I forgot in my hurry to copy the message just delivered to you. Kindly return it to me for a moment and I will hand it to you at any time.—~Mary Emerson, Operator.” Five minutes later the boy handed me the message Wilson had received. It read: “Anderson says Judson will take the 9:40 train for Chicago. Will wear a long white beard.—Foley.” Foley was the chief. His dispatch threw new light on the Judson tip, So Anderson had turned against Judson. It happened that I was going to take the 9:40 train myself, and I determin- ed to keep a sharp outlook for any- I was smooth shaven myself. But the second idea. It was ridicu- lously easy to write a message my- self, and my convenient messenger friend for another quid pro quo handed it to Wilson. My message ran like this: “Made a mistake. Judson will leave on the 9:15 for Montreal.—Foley.” It was already 9:056 and Wilson had barely time to catch the 9:15 train, for he swallowed the spoon, hook and | bait. With Wilson safely side-tracked, I boarded my train. “Message for Henry Wilson. Wilson in this car?” “Ah, yes, I guess that's for me,” I remarked, casually, reaching out my Is Mr. at my berth. Of course it was from Foley. It read: “Anderson makes complete confes- sion. Says story of Judson being dis- guised was a blind. He will, so far as Anderson knows, be smooth shaven, ias he does not suspect he will be fol- lowed, but thinks he has sidetracked *fus. Williams is at Buffalo, and will meet the tra'n at Lee's Ianding.— ' | Foley.” The plot was thickening, “How are we from Lee's Land- ing, porter?” 1 inquired. “Next stop, sir.” Y ted on another exhaustive in- spection of the car, but there was no- Ilmd_\' there whom I thought Williams would be likely to spot as Judson, But there was a gentleman with a long brown beard, sitting all alone in one end of the car. A white beard might be dyed overnight. “Would you mind stepping into my drawing room compartment, sir?”’ I “Certainly, sir,” he replied, rising and accompanying me to my drawing room. Once the door was locked and there was something doing in two min utes. “That's a very fine bunch of whisk- ers you have there, my friend,” I said fiercely, “and I shall have to trouble you for them! Don't make any fuss now and you won't get hurt!” The sheer absurdity of my words made him blink bewilderedly and be- fore he got through blinking I had him tied hand and foot and two minutes later I had neatly snipped off his beautiful brown beard. I had become suddenly alive to the fact that a pair of whiskers was something that I needed in my busi- ness, [ usually went provided with spirit gum and other toilet accessories, but I had neglected to grow a bunch of side whiskers or provided myself with a set of false ones. “Lee's Landing!” shouted the brake- man, as [ stepped out of the drawing room to run plump Into Williams, whom 1 spotted instantly. “He's in the drawing room there!” I whispered hurriedly in Willilams’ ear. “Yes. This {s Wilson! I am detall- ed on another lay; that's why you were wired to meet me. Grew these over night. Good luck.” Then half holding my whiskers with my hard to keep them from falling off, I pulled my hat down over my eyes and made my getaway, It wasn't a very close ghave for the parson, but it was for me, all on ac- count of that traitor Anderson. I just escaped by a hair—that is, by a con- | veniently large number of hairs, judi- ! clously used. i Oh, yes, I was Judson. {guessed that, [ You have | Shows It. ’ “Women are certainly contradie | tory.” H “They certainly are.

Directlons Given Will Enable Anyone With a Slight Knowledge of the Pastime to Produce This Use- ful Article. This useful little bonnet may be worked in almost any kind of wool, either white or to match coat. About two and a half ounces of wool, the thickness of single Berlin, would be required, and a suitable bone hook. Work a chain of 7 inches, pass the nearest and *, draw up a loop through each of the next 2 stitches, draw the wool through all the 8 loops on the hook at once, and make a chain stitch; repeat from * to end of chain; work 6 double crochets into the end stitch, draw a loop through each of the next 2 stitches, draw the wool through as before and make a chain stitch; repeat from * down the second side of the chain, turn. Row 2—3 chain, draw 2 loops through the chain and 1 through each of the two nearest stitches of the pre- vious row (back thread only; draw the wool through all five loops at once, and make a chain stitch; *, draw a loop through the chain stitch Just made, one through the back thread of the last loop of the previous stitch, and one through each of the next two stitches of the last row—b5 loops on hook—draw all through at once and make a chain stitch, repeat from * as far as the double crochets, then draw up the first 3 loops as usu- al, but draw the fourth through the same place as the last loop of the previous stitch. and one through the stitch following, thus making 6 loops, but only advancing one stitch. Work 4 more stitches like this last, and con- tinue as usual to end of row; turn with three chain, and repeat row 2, increasing each of the 6§ middle stitches as before. Work 2 more rows like this last then continue working to and fro | without any increase until the bon- l net measures 10 inches (more or less | | | | | | a8 may be required) from back to | front. For the border: | Work 4 trebles, each separated by | & chain into the nearest chain stitch " of the previous row; * a double cro- | chet in the next chain stitch, 4 trebles, | each separated by a chain in the next, and repeat from ¥, being careful to 1end the row with a group of trebles | to match the first; continue the same fpnltcrn round the lower edge of the bonnet, but with 3 trebles instead of | 4 in each group. Upon this last row | work loops of 3 chain into every sec- ond stitch all round. Fold the front back, and add strings at pleasure. ONE’S COSTUME MEANS MUCH Girl That Is “Fond of Dress” Has Nothing With Which She Need Reproach Herself, It 18 often used as a reproach against girls In general that they are “fond of dress.” Nothing could be more foolish, or generally unmerited than the implied reproof, The girl who is not fond of dress, who does not delight in clothing her pretty little person to the very best advantage, 18 not normal; which means that she lacks all things that make girlhood. Dress will transform the merely girl into a positive beauty, and make the plain girl at least distinguished. A neat, smart, well groomed aspect has secured more enviable positions for the working woman than any abil- ity to reel off incredible numbers of words a minute on the typewriter, be- cause employers rightly expect com- mon sense, neatness and self-respect from the girl who garbs herself 80 suitably. Take the case of the damsel with flaming locks. In pink or pale blue one pities her; in white or brown, or brack, she is an artist's dream. Every girl should study her special style and dress up to it. It !s one of the most pleasant of many pleasant life duties! i Ratine Coat and Skirt, A ratine suit, with shirt walsts of cotton crepe, voile, or washing silk, makes a serviceable and smart sum- mer outfit, one durable, comfortable, and in style. It has the advantage over linen because linen crushes, while ratine shows creases and wrin- kles very little. Tne dark shades are sultable for street wear, and when solled can be laundered without starch. It's price by the yard is rather dear, but the material i3 68 inches wide, needing only thres and-a-half or four years for a coat and skirt.
