As the coat is circular from waist to hem the, checks show a bias arrangement at the back which Is in striking contrast with the regulation arrangement of the black and white squares from waist to ivsck. The coat is lined throughout with soff, white satin. It is an excellent model for traveling, shopping or trotteur wear. Doubtless we shall see it reproduced later on in gabardine," serge and 'even In 'linen and pongee, worn with black shoes, white spats and a white and black hat; the ensemble is exceedingly pleasing. The hat in the picture is a between-season shape, showing a combination of straw and suede smartly trimmed with ribbon loops in contrasting color.

iVv. ing vocal selections by Agnes Barbara Want to Know BY KATHERINE CAREW. Nails Have No Crescents. Dear Miss Carew: 1. Ail my friends think It queer that I have no "half moons on my nails.

Is there any reason for this? 2. My eyes twitches so at times and causes me great annoyance. Will you tell me what la the trouble? 8. Will you please publish how many years ago it Is since the Grand Army had its encampment In Buffalo? L. C.

L. The absence of crescents on the nails is due to natural causes; there is no reason given for the lack. Physical condition sometimes effects the nails but not always. 2. The muscles of your eyes are probably tired and cause the twitching.

It would be well for you to have your eyes examined, as you may need glasses. 3. The Grand Army encampment was held In the summer of 1897. Do Not Force Your Acquaintance. Dear Miss Carew: I am 'a young girl twenty years old and considered quite pretty.

There is a young man who works in a store and always waits on me, but never speaks, to me. I have become interested in him and wish you would tell me hcvv to become acquainted. M. R. M.

Niagara Falls, N. Y. The young man shows very good sense in not trying to force his acquaintance jpon you, and, furthermore, he may not wish to do so. I would advise you to follow his exam ple; if he is at all anxious to meet you he will find a way to be properly introduced. Verse Requested.

Dear Miss Carew: Will you kindly publish the poem about marrying in the different months? It begins "Marry when the year is new," etc. I shal, be most grateful if you can help me. H. D. You will find the verse in one of the Dame Curtsey" books at the public library.

Our space is too limited to publish it here. Request for Fudge Recipe. Dear Miss Carew: Will you please publish a recipe for plain M. W. Here are two excellent recipes: Chocolate Fudge.

vLEEPYTI! THE GNOME'S COASTING PARTY (By Virginia Vale.) Once upon a time the Gnomes decided that they had worked very hard and they ought to have a holiday. So they rolled soft small snowballs and then each one sat on his own, and they began to talk about what they should do. Some of them wanted to go hunting while others said fishing or skating was the best. At last one of them said: "I tell you what we will do. Let's borrow Jimmy's new double runner and go coasting.

I know he won't care, besides we can take it at night when he Is asleep." They all thought that was a fine plan and that very night they went to Jimmy's house and very quietly pulled the long red double-runner out and up the hill. Down they flew faster and faster until each little Gnome was shouting with Joy. They made so much noise that it woke Jimmy and he ran to the window and there was his new double-runner going up the bill with hundreds of Gnomes pulling at the rope. "Here, here," called Jimmy, "wait for me," and the Gnomes called back, "all right, only hurry." Soon Jimmy and the Gnomes were flying down the hill faster than Jimmy had ever ridden. Of course the Gnomes wouldn't let Jimmy even help pull the sled up, but Instead let him ride back.

That was fun too without any work and Jimmy thorough ly enjoyed it. Time and time again they went down the hill and so fast that it almost took their breaths away but it was such fun that none of them noticed what time it was until the sun rose and said: "Good morning, aren't you up pretty early Then they knew it was time to go home and that their holiday was Over, so thanking Jimmy for letting them take his double-runner they drew it back into the barn, said goodbye, and scampered home tired but happy. "Jimmy, Jimmy, time to get un. called hla mother and Jimmy rubbed his eyes, bopped out of bed and said: "I am tired this morning mother, for I was out all night coasting with the Gnomes on my new double-runner."

John Harrison Mills, No. 494 Elmwood avenue, each Monday, beginning thia evening. Bristling with Exciting Situat Produced at Great Cxpena, finding her gone after the train had left Tarnvtlle; the discovery that she had ben helped by the black-Van-dyked man to board a local headed to New Tork; Ned's chase after them In an express train, and hia train pullinjr alongside them In the approach to the Grand Central station; the sight, through the windows of the parallel cars, of that suave stranger bending over June with his Infernal smile, and her smiling ud at him: Blve following June's taxi In another from the station, and Ned's fruitless pursuit in a third taxi; tne chase out to Brynport that same, night, when June had stolen her clothes and Marie; the return chase, where Ned had seen June and Marie step into Blye's luxurious limousine and whirl away with him! Everywhere that Ned had found a trace of June, he had found a trace of Gilbert Blye. and he wished to live for one thing; to meet Blye face to face, and. with hi bare hands, strangle that scoundrel to death! Ned became aware of the Widow O'Keefe eyeing him from midway of tlia stairs.

She was a frail looking old woman, with her gnarled hands clasped before her. but her leady little eyea were as sharp as the unexpected nrea from dull Jewels and there was not one move of Ned's party which escaped her. Sammy, still whistling with over- nonchalance, waa so persistently not gazing at the closet door that it waa a wonder no one asked for the key. "WeTe wasting our time." called the nervous Iris Blethering. "We're probably letting them get away," and June's bosom friend took her placid young husband with her.

The rest of the party followed. Meanwhile, Marie disguised in the suffocatingly tight black mourning outfit of the WicUaw O'Keefe was many blocks out of the danger zone, smother ing in a telephone booth and calling up the place where June had gone -to work. Mrs. Villard was not in her beautiful home up the Hudson, nor waa Miss June there. They had gone into the city, but the maid gave Maria a telephone number.

Mrs. Villard an-ewered that call from a gorgeously furnished room where half a dozen stunningly-gowned young women sat smoking, and her kindly face showed immediate concern when she learned that June must not come honu to the Widow O'Keefe's. "Why?" she naturally wanted to know. "Well, you're a friend of hrs. aren't hesitated Marie.

"Of course," smiled Mrs. Villard. and before her rose the fresh, young face of pretty June. "Well, then, I'll tell you." Marie threw her thick black veil over her shoulder for the twentieth timet and a drop of perspiration down her nose. "I'm her maid, Marie, and she mustn't come homo." "But she's already started," worried Mrs.

Villard. "She's probably there by this time. Why mustn't she come home?" "Has she?" and the voice -of Marie cracked. "Oh! Good-bye! How am I to get her away from there!" "Wait a minute!" This seemed to be no time for asking questions." I'll come down in my car!" "Oh, yes, do!" gasped Marie, nearly pulling the transmitter off the wall. "Good-bye.

I have to hurry!" "Wait a minute! Walt, Marie. Where am I to come?" "Oh. yes," and Marie gasped. "It's the Widow O'Keefe's. at the corner of Deshley street and Duck alley, right across from Tim Courky's saloon.

Any policeman can tell you the place. Hurry, "and Marie, starting another seam in the Widow O'Keefe's mourning dress, plunged out of the telephone booth, battling for air. Mrs. Villard stood at the phone a moment, with a musing smile growing upon her lips; then she gave the number of a magnificent club. The man whom a brass-buttoned page brought through the marble corridors from the leather hung library to answer the call wore a suave smile and a black Vandyke.

"This Is Mrs. Villard, Gilbert." came a low, sweet voice. "I have something very important to tell you. June." "Oh." Gilbert Blye stroked his black Vandyke with his long. lean, white fingers.

"I'll Join you immediately wherever you say." "Shall I stop at your club? It will be right on my way." "Please." Gilbert Blye walked out of the telephone booth, sent for his hat. and sat In the reception room near the door. He looked at the time, and in the lid of the little gold watch which he took from his waistcoat pocket waa the portrait of a beautiful young girl, with round, smooth cheeks and large, luminous eyes. Against one cheek rested the silken ear of a handsome collie. Gilbert Blye smiled as he gazed down upon the sweet, pure face of June Warner.

Ear uptown, a sharp-featured woman with a long nose and high-archd brows, sat facing a paxrot with a long nose and high-arched brows, and above the parrot cage on the wall was a portrait of Gilbert Blye. "Pretty Polly," said the woman shrilly, and put a chocolate between the bars. "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up." screamed the parrot and snaDned at her finger. Ned Warner and stern John Moore, Mrs. Moore, Iris Blethering and the peace-loving Bobby, came out of the Widow O'Keefe's, and looked for the family limousine.

It had been ordered around the corner by Officer Toole. who poked his stubby foreflnarer In the deep dimple of hia broad chin, and grinned across at the 0Keefe, mother and son. His eye roved nonchalantly up to the third story windows. The pretty June, God bless her, was not visible, but she was still In the house; still in the house. And amongst friends.

A long, lean, lank, furtive, cadaverous-cheeked man. the chief of Ned Warner's and John Moore's detective force, was around the corner with the family limousine. Ned left him on watch, and as the car drove away, the lanky detective went to collect his helpers; lean men. of course, since like favors like. He found them in the surrounding saloons, and marshal ed them down in front of the little cracked-nosed Cupid, to give them their instructions.

While they stood sagaciously listening, there came from behind Tim Courky's a band of thugs who "ooked suspiciously like policemen on duty, ana in mo piain signi or um cers Moran and If the broad backs of 1 those officers had not been turned, those thugs, without cause, provocation or explanation, fell joyously upon the lean detectives and beat them up.

Marie lifted her vail and displayed her (Continued from Saturday.) SEVENTH EPISODE. The Tormentors. CHAPTER I.

The Widow O'Keefe stooped quickly and snatched something from the floor, while five strangers peered into every absurd nook and comer of the two rooms and bath which comprised the Widow O'Keefe's top floor suite. Sammy O'Keefe bent over his mother's shoulder and smiled that smile which went with his curly hair, and his blue eyes. The object was a small snapshot of the beautiful young girl whom the Ave searchers would have given worlds to see. and at that moment the girl herself was coming up the stairs. The deserted husband of pretty June Warner was at the hall door, with his hand reached out for the knob, and in another instant Ned Warner and June would have been face to face.

In that instant the Widow O'Keefe whipped the snapshot under her apron, and in the very swiftness of the motion struck into the corner of Ned Warner's rest- i less eye. He turned, and he and the father of June glanced at each other. There was something suspicious In the bent and warped and withered Widow O'Keefe and her tall slip of a son. Ned came abruptly from the door and renewed his search. There was no hope that his runaway bride -was concealed in these rooms, or in any of the closets, but there must be some clue to her.

Ned and his detectives had too positively traced her here to admit of any mistake. Iris Blethering, June's bosom friend, looked energetically under and behind everything for stray letters, and her placid husband, Bobby, lit a cigarette, quite earnestly. Mr. Moore, gentle-faced and self-contained, sat in the little wicker chair and folded her hands, and looked about her with absorbed speculation. She had a keen intuition that her daughter mast have been here.

At that very moment June, just outride, had paused on the third step from the bottom to retie the bow upon her saucy little slipper to give it a vigorous pat to make it behave and stay in place. To prove his nonchalant Innocence, slim young Sammy O'Keefe walked to the window, whistling, and glanced out with an air of great Indifference, as if contemplating the weather. He gazed at the sky and at the tops of the nearby buildings and down at the fountain, where the Cupid with the cracked nose eternally hugged a cold stone swan to his chill breast. On the other side of the fountain, and in front of the wedge-like corner of Tim Courky's saloon, stood Officer Toole, and he was acting strangely for a staid and respectable guardian of the peace. His helmet was shoved on the back of his head, his club was in his left fist, and his left fist was on his hip; his stubby right forefinger was in the deep dimple of his broad chin; there was a frown on his brow, and his lips were puckered as if for a whistle, while his eyes roved anxiously from window to window of the narrow, dingy slice of a house which was the Widow O'Keefe's.

At sight of Sammy, Officer Toole became all animation. He pointed energetically toward the door, he waved both arms, he shook his head, he made motions with his feet; and all these symptoms of nervous eagerness were so confusing that it seemed an interminable time, perhaps ten seconds, before the staring Sammy, usually quicK, could gather anything from the pointing finger. Sammy turned slowly from the window and strolled over to the bookcase, leaning there for a quarter of a second, then he lounged over to the whatnot and idly inspected two conch snells and a bisque shepherdess a souvenir thermometer from the Chicago World's fair, then he slid over against the door Jamb, in a worthless sort of way, opened the door stealthily and slipped his thin body through the crack. June. The listless Sammy used the next quickest method to wireless.

With one noiseless spring he straddled the banister rail, whizzed around the curve and down to June, who waa halfway up the stairs, jumped off with a footstep as light as a feather, grabbed the astounded girl by the wrist and dragged her down the steps, at the risk of both their necks. There was no time for explantion, and no breath for it! Sammy shoved June in the second floor hall closet, along with the trunk left behind by the Murphys. and the baby chair left behind by the Glucks. and the bird cage left behind by the Ripanos, and the other miscellany, souvenirs by bygone tenants. Sammy locked the door, and stuck the key in his pocket, and set the springs in his thin legs to work, and was sitting lazily on the top step, bored, and whistling softly, when Ned and Mr.

and Mrs. John Moore, and Bobby and Iris Blethering. came out, Bobby extremely dejected and Iris explaining volubly that it waa all a mistake. June couldn't possibly have ben hare; but she must have been, after all, because. Still, how could it be? June.

In the dark closet, shut off from all light and sound, stood bewildered, her eyes distended in the darkness, while Ned stood not two feet away from her. He had paused before that very door, as lr some delicate magnetism had caug-ht and held him there. No trace of her anywhere, no trace of Marie, the French -Canadian maid with. the high cheeikbones and the conspicuous gums, no trace of the mys terious black-v andyJtea man whom none of them had cared to mention to the Widow O'Keefe. Gilbert Blye! Ned clinched his fists, and his brow black as his nd filled with the of that dark, hsndsome face, with its glowing eye? and suave smile.

Of course I have been paying this compensation assessment ever since it was Introduced, but what I would like to know from a certain evening newspaper is why it dropped the agitation that was started when the laundry owners tacked on this additional cent to pay their work men's compensation assessment, and why George W. Batten also waa suddenly silent on this same matter. This newspaper has always been booming itself as the people's paper. and not long ago was showing the many lines of news over and above other evening publications, and why they could show such an abundance of news. I read all Buffalo papers, but always class The Courier and Enquirer as my two favorites for reading matter, editorial and otherwise.

By publishing this letter In your val uable paper perhaps we will hear from our esteemed neighbor or a few who are paying the compensation the same as the writer. Perhaps It would be well to state that a penny would scarcely break anyone with an ordinary Income, but I believe the laundry- men have put one over on the people of Buffalo and are getting away, with it.
