She let go her burden with a sigh as it touched the station Platform and looked about her, be- wiidered. Not a man on the platform stepped forward or paid the slight- est heed to her. Stoddard went forward at # run. With one hand he seized the grip, with the other he firmly clasped her arm, and started her at a trot down the platform tow: the rear end of “Want to come?” ‘No.” As Livingston started down toward the landing place thy Indian whispere3 softly to Stoddard; “You mail letter quiet, I bring tele- gram quiet.” Stoddard lanced at his watch; there was plenty of time yet—more than three hours. “A fine mess!” he exclaimed. “T’'m in for it!” it!" he said defiantly. “She'll think I'm crazy, and she'll have a right to. “I hate to do it, but t) 's nothing After ten miles of paddling Stod- dard left his canoe on the float went off at a run for the railway eta- tion, “North-bound on time? he de- manded at the ticket office.

If you see me do anything that astonishes you when the north- bound train comes in, why, it's right. There's a mistake been and I've got to straighten it out ina hurry. So if you see me grab a lady as soon as she steps off the train,” Stoddard went on, “everything Is O. a and regular. You understand, Billy?” “So long’s you're doing It, Mr, Stod- ward, why, it’s all right, as far as I'm concerned.” Stoddard went to the tickgt office purchased a railroad ticket and a i berth on the southbound, thrpugh to Toron' Then he count- ed his money and stripped five ten- bills ¢rom a roll.

What about undergarments, which are bound with self fabric in contrasting color, and sometimes trimmed with squares or circles of the contrasting color in- serted by means of hemstitching. Often the lower edge of the chemise and step-ins is cut in scallops, squares, or points which achieve an elaborate effect. The step-ins are made on the closed drawer style, with medium wide legs, sometimes slashed up the sides, and at the top mounted on an elastic band, slipping on like knickers. Some of the elabo- rate underthings are made of chif- fon or georgette and elaborately trimmed with lace and fine tucks. You who have the time to spare will find no more delightful diversion than the developing of some pieces of lin- gerie of this type, which are not only delightful to have but really neces- sary for wear with lace or chiffon frocks. I have sketched one which is not very intricate, being topped by a double band of the georgette below which a band of lace Is set in scallops. Under the lace a band of blue ribbon {ts run and tied with a bow in front, while an added bit of color is afforded in the rosebud gar- nitures in shades of pink, which tip each point of the scallops, Tucks are Tun in a group on each side to give & pleasing suggestion of fit. doubt if any of you have over- looked the craze for sleeveless nighties, which, needless to remark, makes the making of them a very simple matter. One of the simplest types 1s composed of two straight lengths of silk, topped by a lace band and completed with ribbon or lace shoulder straps. I have sketched one, however, that is distinctive and pretty, which is topped with a gathered yoke of net or chiffon, with | a ribbon holding it at the top and a decorative bow of it dropping over the arm. In the front a pretentious motif of hand embroidery holding the monogram tin the centre, relieves the plainness of the lower portion, which has no fulness.

One of the most practical brassieres I have seen was of scallop- ged filet lace, joined by the straight edges, which were shaped to points where satin elastic straps were attached to fasten in the back, A rosebud garniture was placed at the top edge in the front. Another pretty brassiere for evening wear was ot pink satin, trimmed with rows of very narrow lace. 250 POLICE IN BATTLE.

Throwing his canoe into the water with a single jerk, he flung himself into it and seized a paddle. He wondered if Billy Mason would tell. Halt a mile from the landing he remenrbered No. 18. * “Great Scott!" he exclatmed. He could go directly ashore, strike the railway, carrying his canoe with him, and follow the track for a mile and a half, after which he could put in at Spruce River, and follow it to the Lower Station. ' As his bobnails clattered along the wooden ties and the broken rock that ballasted the roadbed, he had unin- terrupte leisure to consider the case of No. 18—and his own. It would be pitch dark for more than an hour be- fore he reached her. He hoped she would have sense enough not to move fyom the lonely little platform. What would he do with her? There was a hotel at the station. but that would be a six-mile walk back. And perhaps she had a trunk. Theis was also the hotel of Deepwater Island. Stoddard settled upon that, Larry Livingston, his camp-mate, must Lever hear of thie affair, Stoddard took only one dangero' chance on his trip. There were some two hundred yards of ewift water, ending almost opposite the Lower Station. The canoe swept around the curve at racing speed. ‘He shouted aloud in triumph as his light craft slid at torpedo speed out into the quiet water. “Grand!” exclaimed a voice from the darkness. “Hello, there!" he shouted, staring toward the shore. “Sadie.” “Sadie?” “No. 18. I guess you're Mr. Stod- dard, ain't you?” “Of course; certainly. But I—I—" “Wasn't expectin’ me down here. I wasn't expectin’ you neither. That is, not down here.” “I should say, not,” he answered, as he drove the canoe ashore. “You might have got lost,” he said severely. “No; I was careful. I could hear the water runnin’ somewhere from up there on the platform. After a while { followed the sound, so I found this place, and I've been sittin’ here ever since, watchin’ that water come down. ‘Then I saw you comin’ around that corner up there. My, but it was grand!” Stoddard reached down and picked up' his canoe. “Lead the way up to the station platform,” he commanded. “I want to get a look at you.” Stoddard was suddenly impatient to inspect the girl, who ploughed her way steadily, through a tangle of brush. hen he finally dropped his burden on the little platform, he drew a sharp breath and his eyes widened. He saw—well, he saw Sadie. Sadie’s frank survey, of Stoddard came to a rest on the olive-drab shirt. “You sure are a forty-four,” she commented. “Say, explain that,” said Stoddard. “What's this forty-four business?” “Why, chest.” “Oh, you mean it's a forty-four shirt. I never thought of that. “You thought it meant six-shoot- ers," she laughed. “And I never thought of that.” “You look as though you were en- titled to something more than a num- ber,” said Stoddard. “I'm Sadie Hicks—make it Sadie,” she said simply. “I'm used to that— and the number. this evening by the Chinese Educa- tiomal Club of Teachers College, Co- luatbia University.

You'll see water enough when you've been up here a while,” he re= marked. Just why this observation slipped from him Stoddard did not know. She would have to go back to Buffalo, and promptly. Sadie was examining the canoe with curiosity, Finally she laid hold of the gunwale with her hands. “Why, I can lift it!” she exclaimed in pleased wonder. “You look as if you could lift two,” said Stoddard, watching her. “T am_ bi she admitted. “I'm strong, too.
