And bow easitly this « te expressed may be aren in t @iverse interpretations of my design as seen in the front and back views A combination of velvet and tartan plaid achieves a delightful effect at the right, while serge and satin are agreeably united at the left. The tn teresting feature of this frock fs the clever introduction of an Eton effect at the back of a bodice which start ed out with the best of intentions to favor the Moyen-age style. Drop ping low over the hips, the bodice Is slashed twice to form two sash ends which are brought around the figure to hold the pleats of the skirt in place. The slightly fitted effect which this gives suggests in silhou- ette the semi-princess lines which will be much favored as fall ad- vances, Pockets, which are no more to flaunt their exaggerated deoorative and useful qualities before discern: ing minds, are conspicuously absent. Two lines of buttons, panel distances apart, are the only attempts at deco- ration on the skirt. The same sort of buttons are made to do service on the bodice in holding fast the two points of the collar that are so long they must needs cross each other. On the velvet bodice, which, though Lot striking in black, could be in any dark color, the plaid fabric is intro- duced for collar and cuffs, but on the uni-colored serge and satin frock I have suggested white satin or organ: | ay as refreshing finishings for neck and sleeves. The embroidery on the back of the bodice and at the points of the slashes in front may be of self- CRAIG KENNEDY, THE SCIENTIFIC DETECTIVE, UNDERTAKES ONE OF THE STRANGEST CASES IN HIS LONG CAREER OF BAFFLING CRIME (Copyright, BYNOPSIS OF fennedy and his newsps change ‘Trist Worn) 4, Street & Smith), PRECEDING CHAPTERS, per partner, Walter Jameon, undertake to soire the mystery of Mester C, Mi or, the President, and William K, Moore, the wi Vice Presi f dread, ious of y jent, are siinpecter Based sued t ie The ‘myter Ee tua tube really is friemlly, with her sceonpanied ro of Fe oa ane elertea-maguetic™ gun, hid i fe devonlt bor, It met his | Mie the jrtiern 9 Sctertmenting tm thelr i ky the place, ‘They manage to leave the CHAPTER XII.

Of course we don't know whose they are, but when we come to the last act there will be no complications, It will be a straight case. What's that?" he added, as a man employed in the col- lege offices poked his head in the door, “I'm wanted on the telephone? Good! Walter, that must be Baird at last. Come on!" At the office he Hterally grabbed for the telephone in his eagerness. "Is that you, Baird?" he cried. “Well, I'm afraid we'll have to move against that Pietro gang sooner than we ¢x ected. ‘They've put me in a pretty dangerous positign. I'll see you this afternoon and rrange the details, but it must positively be done t night, or I don't know but you'll have a man named Kennedy as the prin- cipal in a funeral." As he hung up the recelver he seemed to be revolving something over and over in his mind, his fea tures working nervously.

A moment later he had made up his mind, and we returned to th» wreck of his laboratory, He took out two complete dictographs, tested them, found them uninjured, and wrapped them up. At a taxicab stand near the univer- sity he motioned me to enter the ma chine at the head of the line, and as he shut the door I heard him say “The Alden Arms, on Park Avenue.’ I turned to him inqulringly. “It 1 an unpleasant job that ts THE GREEN-GOODS KING | A Story of High Finance and the Part Lowe Played. ahead of us, Walter,” was all he sald in explanation, “But T believe it my. duty to tell Mrs. Moore what we heard over the dictograph, The linos are tightening, and the more I think about it the more I think it Is only fair to give that woman a chance.

"I did not know that there was any thing that concerned us both that any outsider had the right to talk about." “I'm not so sure of that,” replied Kennedy. “Now, for instance, I know something about a little photo- graph gallery down on the east side in which it Is reported'—-he laid par- pular stress On the word—"that Mr. eis intereste ptograph gallery?" “Mr. Moore?" she repeat. it was now her ed turn to appear surprised. “Yes; we saw you enter It the other realized that Kennedy had some con- nection with the cause of her ner- vousness, She was quite evidently d and we have also scen Miss ra her guard, for she had dressed in Walrchild there too,” her street grown, with her hut on She bit her Mp, but on second and her handbag tn her hand, aw if thought seemed to think Wt. beat. to she had calculated on having a f00d say nothin, t excuse to terminate the interview If im. tholieh it wae evident to @ blind man that the mere mention of Miss F hild’s name was the sig- nal that might bring on a storm of s words, she should desire, ‘Mrs. Moore," began slowly, as she sought to avoid penetrating gaze, “I believe that know I have been retained by cer- tain persons in the case of the death of Mr, Snead, I beg that anything I may say to you be considered in strict confidence."

Long before the American Susan B, Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton were ‘born, years before the English Mary Wollatonecroft wrote her “Vindication of the Rights of Woman,” Olympes de Gouges, child of the French revolution, drew up a Dill of fights for women with the assistance of Condorcet Although the women of France are to-day less concerned with ‘political emancipation than the women of the Anglo@axon countries, it is to France that woman owes the ideal of freedom. Before the French revolution humanity asked but one question of every innovation, confronted every change with a dull, indifferent “Why? The revolution taught men to ask “WHY NOT?" And the great war now going on has taught women the eame Jess@n. Shall women make ammunition? Shall women plough? Shall women drive ambulances? Shall women take the places of men, do the work of men in every field, from which men are called by war? WHY NOT? These powers were quite often unsuspected ‘by women themselves For the most discouraging aspect of woman's work has been her lack of confidence in het own abilities, She had been told so often and eo long that she was nature’y stepchild that she had come to belleve it, and {t was easy enough to accept the dictum that she suffered at birth some sort of brain blight, through the fact of her sex, because then she could put man to work for her with an easy conscience.
