She kissed her two hands after {him in token of heartfelt gratitude. Allen wandered far from the scene, ! but some influence drew him back to the little town. it was to learn that Gordon DBrooks had been found mur- dered in his own garden, a jeweled | stiletto sunk deep in his heart. | Dallas was suspected.

Allen chianced to note in the local | [ paper an advertisement, It asked com- munication with “the stranger who bhad passed through the Brooks gar- den” the night of the great sm:iuli function. It directed him to Mr | Lrownthorpe, lawyer of the estate. | f The next day Allen knew that his ' evidénce as to the stiletto and the threat of Dallas would forever exon- erate Mrs. Breooks. Once more he met Ariadne. As they entered the court room the next day, Allen gave a great start as he observed seated beside the judge a man whom he recognized. He turned pale. Then he spoke to his beautiful companion. “Miss Beltrand,” he said, strangely, | “I go to the witness stand to meet my doom—hut all for your sake.” | { T'he eves of the judicial visitor were | constantly fod on the witness.

There is much to be said in favor of the new millinery, for, although many, perhaps the majority of hats seem al- most ridiculous in their eccentricities, as they are viewed from their pedes- they are certainly picturesque and conservative enough when properly | adjusted atop of the head. The new hats show the interesting color combinations so fashionable in! gowns. Many models have either the crown and brim of different colors, not | to mention differenf fabrics also, or else the crown and brim are one of color with an under facing that is in strong contrast. Almost without exception the hats are small, with close-fitting crown and brims—if there are brims—that hug the head. The trimmings are legion, with feathers and ribbons in the lead.
