GOWN FOR THE YOUNG LADY Velvet Dresses Considered Most Ap- propriate—Changes in the Color of Neckwear. Velvet dresses for young girls are the smart thing of the afternoon wear. They are made with a long waist and a short skirt, made of two -circular | flounces; between these is a satin belt or sash. A collar of pique or lace, cut sailor or rounding, is the usual neck flnish.

He could not shake Miss Mitram's prin- | ciples, and his presence there had be- come impossible. | It must have been a week before | Carruthers’ projected departure that a patient was carried into the hos- | pital from a cab. It was a bad case of alcoholism, but the man had fallen 1 and injured himself internally while ! in his delirlum. We put him in the general ward, where Miss Mitram was night nurse. I was acting house surgeon at that | time, and I was going the rounds when | Carruthers came up to me, as white a8 a sheet. “Jack,” he said, “it's all up. I knew it would happen.” “What?” I asked. “That fellow Johnson in Bed 14 is Elizabeth Mitram's husband!” “Nonsense!"” 1 answered angrily, be- cause the shock was almost as bad for me as it had been for him. “Go and see her, Jack,” he said, pressing my hand. There 18 not much privacy in a hos- pital, but Bed 14 occupied a little al- | cove at the end of the room, and one could speak there without being heard by the others. Nurse Mitram . was standing beside Johnson. She beckoned me to follow her into the night nurses’ room, and there she wheeled on me like a tigress. She | drew a paper from her apron pocket. “Will you please read that" she sald to me. It was brief and to the point. Tt | offered a reward of a thousand dol-} lars for the arrest of a certaln Lam- | son, who was wanted on the charge of theft. He had been the valet of old Montague, the millionaire, and had made off with all the cash he could lay his hands on and, what had en- raged the old man most, some minia- tures of a dead child of his. Hence the offer of the reward. The photo- graph accompanying the article Was that of Johnson. “What are you golng to do?™ I asked. “I have told him to gtve himself up,” she replied. f ' as it seemed to me—though it must you.
