Locked Out of the Inn.

L blankly.
"Yes. I had forgotten all about the
fact that they lock their doors with
keys and bolts." answered Challoner,
helplessly. "We're in for it now. We'll
have to rout some one out of bed
I see no other way."
"We can't do that," protested Marian,
weakly. "As you say, we'd never hear
the end of It. There must be some
otper way."
My room is on the second floor.
If I could find a ladder, I could climb
in. and then come down and open the
door for you," suggested Challoner.
"And more than likely you'd get shot
for a burglar, if some excitable per
son should become aroused and see you
doing it." smiled Marian. "But listen.
My room is on the first floor. I'm sure
my window Is open. Let's reeonnolter.
Maybe you could get In there without
causing any disturbance, and then let
roe through the door."
Challoner offered nb objections to
the suggestion, although the thought
flashed upon him that, should he by
any chance be seen emerging from
Marian's room, subsequent explana
tions would possibly sound appallingly
unconvincing. However, he saw noth
ing else to do, and In a moment Mar
Ian, to whom the possibility of ob
servation had not yet occurred, was
leading him around to the side of the
Inn on which her room was located.
"You see," she whispered, coming to

anxiously.

"I'm a little afraid that if I try to get
around to the front door to let you in
some one will be roused. I could lift
you In here In a Jiffy. Shall I?"
Marian weighed the proposition. Her
brain, by this time dizzy with excite
ment,' her body yearning for rest, ap
proved the suggestion.
"Do you think you could lift me in?'
she asked. "I'm not as light as the
proverbial feather."
"I could carry you to the top of
Mount Parnassus," said Challoner,
breathlessly. "Give me your hands."
In a moment his strong hands had
closed over hers. with slow, careful
efforts, he lifted her clear of the
ground and helped her safely in
through the window. A strange force
the like of which shj had never felt in
a man before, seemed to magnetize
Marian completely as she felt herself
being lifted bodily and borne upward
to the window of her room. Strangely
commanding fires burned in the eyes
which held her own eyes captive. He
stood holding her forearms with steady
bands, now that she stood close be

"I'm not going to ask you to forgrive
me for this monumental mess I'm re

would be too much to ask. But I wish
you could find it possible not to think
of .me too harshly because of it. 1
think of nothing more that I can do
in reparation just now. Good night.
Pleasant slumbers."
As Marian murmured good night, she
was dimly aware that a shadowy fig

vanished. The door closed without
noise behind him, and she was alone.
She crossed and locked the door, and
In a few minutes she had made ready

X "WHAT
kANNE
HOUSE
What Do the Fashions of Summer
Indicate.
ON THE COAST OF NORMANDY, July
28. It Is always interesting to the
observer of fashions to contrast the
styles of two seasons in the same spot
on the globe. Take last Summer and
this one as an example, along this line
of seashore which, combining with the
Brittany coast, constitutes the Summer
Riviera, and is parallel in smartness
and wealth with the stretch that runs
from Newport to Tar Harbor on the
American coast.
In the realm of fashionable clothes It
is more Important, for it has always
been recognised as the breeding place
for Autumn styles since Eugenie came
to Trouvllle during the Second Empire.
Last season at this time, the short
Polret tunic ruled; today one is rare.
Here and there one runs across an ab
breviated tunic fitted close to the figure,
but one feels sure It is a left-over.
On every side, the long Cheruit tunic
floats away from an attenuated lower
skirt, with its opening in front and its
wide hem. And side by side with this
one finds the straight skirt with panels
of pleatings the most c -iortable kind
of all and really pretty when the
straight line is insisted on; it is when
this skirt flares out at the foot, losing
its linS that it becomes ungraceful.
Taking the fashions of last year at
this time as they appeared here and
going over them in detail, then con
trasting them with the fashions of the
moment, one deducts the fact that a
woman of the smart set would not pass
muster in her last season clothes. They
would not even bear alteration.
What are the points of difference?
Well the minaret overskirt has given
way to the long one; the tiny turban
with its towering aigrette or vulture
wlnjrs to the canotier with its wide flat
brim, its large flat crown and Its flat
trimming.
The kimono sleeve has given place to
a long tight one, set in at the shoulder
at the conventlal spot; the fullness at
the waist line has been pulled in; the
skirt is excessively short and does not
KITTEN
imitate a pair of Turkish trousers at
the hips. There are now hip yokes in
stead of hip drarory.
There is no fullness lapped over in
front, above the knees, showing when
the wearer walks a transparent under
skirt of lace or chilton.
Instead of black everywhere there is
orange yellow, cerise, and Norwegian
blue. Instead of muslins there are cot
ton velvets and accordion pleated de
signs in colored stripes done in light,
fleecy woolens.
Instead of straw and tulle hats, there
are velvet ones.
The loose negligee blouse has been
superseded by the half-fltting basque
and the waist line has been lengthened
by several inches.
The sash has gone from above the
normal waist to the hip line and the
bow at the back has twisted itself
around to the front; there is no bow
really; only two ends crossed over each
other, and knotted.
The astonishing coiffure that was
worn first at Deauviile last August in
the baccarat rooms of the Casino is now
commonplace. The midnight after the
Grand l'rix was run last August an im
mensely chio young woman excited
more comment than the losses at the
table by another well-known beauty, by
entering the gaming rooms with her
hair sleeked back from forehead to
crown of head, showing the five points
of beauty on her forehead as clearly
as though they were grass grown cliffs
running into the sea.
"Have we eot to do this?" -was the
question each fashionable woman asked
herself and her friends that night. And
now the world of women does it with
out a qualm and the onlookers regard It
a3 the natural thing.
hut Chauges WW Come.
The world of designers Is wondering
about the future. What new things does
one see along this coast that are strong
enough to live? What straws show the
quarter from which to expect the fash
ion winds in the season of Paris open
ings? Here Is what they say: That fashion
is weary of tunics, of wrinkled basques,
of Oriental sashes, of too narrow skirts,
of no waist line, or too large a waist
line.
But what next?
TOMATOES AGAIN.
Fried or broiled tomatoes are excel
lent for breakfast or supper. Select
those that are round and of medium
size, wash in cold water and cut in
slices half an inch thick. Dip the slices
in flour seasoned with salt and pepper;
dip in melted butter, put on a double
broiler and brown quickly and deli
cately on each side,
Fried tomatoes are prepared as for
broiling, dipped in ieatenegg diluted
with a little boiling water and then In
powdered bread crumbs. Have ready
hot fat and brown quickly on each side.
Scalloped tomatoes, for which either
the fresh or canned vegetables may be
used, are made by placing alternate lay
ers of bread crumbs and tomatoes in a
pudding dish. Season each layer with
salt, pepper and bits of butter. Bake
20 minutes and, if fond or cheese, scat
ter a layer over the top. Then hake
five minutes longer. A ;imilar dish is
made by using layers of rice instead of
bread crumbs. A brown, white or curry
sauce is often served wun iriea or
browned tomatoes.
In Ceylon a delicious sauce for cold
meats is made from tomatoes and the
cream of cocoanut milk. Take three
tomatoes, larye, ripe and firm, peel, cut
in halves and take out the seeds and
put on ice. Just before using, chop
them fine and season with half a tea
spoonful of salt, a dash of cayenne and
one tablespoonf u. of onion Juice and a
chopped green pepper.
The cocoanut milk is made by pouring
a pint of boiling water over a freshly
grated nut. Let it stand an hour, then
press out all the milk with the hand.
Set away in a bowl and a delicious
cream will rise tu the surface. Skim off
this cream and turn over the tomato
mixture. Just before servi lg add a
dessert-spoonful of lemon juice.
Fai a hot dish at the Sunday night
tea, tomatoes are appetizing creamed
in the chatlng dish. Cut the tomatoes
in thick slices without peeling, and fry
In two tablespoonfuls of buttbr until
tender. Mix one-half pint of cream or
milk with one tablespoonful of flour,
salt to taste and a good shaking of
white pepper. Turn over the tomatoes
and stir without stopping until the
cream thickens. For this quantity of
sauce use one-half dozen tomatoes.

How Howard Joined the Circus.
HOWARD HAMMOND ran in rrom
school out of breath. "Mother," he
said. "I want to sj-ay out of school this
afternoon. Some of the boys are going
to the circus and I want to go with
them."
"You went to the circus last year,
his mother said. "We cannot afford to
give you tho money this year.
Howard sulked through the dinner
and when It was tune ror scnooi ne
went out of the house and down the
street toward the school.
When he reached the corner or tna
street he turned towaro me ciiuu
grounds. "I am not going to school."
he said. "The other boys are going to
the circus and I can work my way by
helping the men."
It was a long walK to ine grounua,
but he kept on and when he came to
the biff tents he walked among mem
until he came to the one where the
horses were kept. He saw a man
standing in the opening and ne asjcea
him if there was any wont ne ctjuiu
do to pay his way Into the circus.
'Give this boy a Job," ne cauea 1.0
another man; "he wants to worK, ne
added with a laugh.
'Come on, youngster,' saia tne man
who was feeding horses. ne gave
Howard a pail and showed him where
to fill it. "All these horses want
water," he said.
Howard was anxious to see tne Dip
show and he worked hard. You are
irnod worker." said the man. how
would you like to go with the show?"
"I would like to It 1 coum gee ine
circus every day.
'Oh,, you could see It every aay.
said the man, "and all day.
After a while he asked: wnen
does the circus begin? I do not want
to miss It."
'Oh. you will not miss a thing,' tne
,n replied. "Take this horse by the-
bridle and follow me."
Howard did as he was told, ana tney
went to the big tent where tne per
formance was held. Howard neara
the music and he knew the show had
begun. "I'll miss the show," he said
to the man.
"No, von won't." the man replied.
'Take that horse to the man at the
door."
The curtain swung back as tne
horses passed through, and "warn
had a plimcpe of what was going on
in the bis rings, but he was kept so
busy that lie did not have a chance
to look long at a time. Then the horses
had to be taken back.
'Come and eat supper. said tne
man he was helping: "we ve got to ruo
ail the horses before the evening per
formance." 'But T have not seen tne show.
said Howard, ready to cry from dis
appointment. The afternoon show is over," sain
the man. "You didn't expect to be let
in for the little you did, did you? You
can go in this evening."
When night came it was the same
thing over again, leading the horses
tr the big tent and back again, and
Howard was so tired that he lay down
on the strew and went to sleep.
When he nwoke it was with a start,
and he looked around him. Ho seemed
No
Since
in h movine and after a
while he
knew he was on a train on his way to
he get there? He was 011 his way to
the next city. He did not sleep again,
and before long the train stopped and
the man whose helper he had been
called to him to hurry along.
Howard had never en any one work
so hard or fast as the circus people,
and he was pushed about and told to
hurry in anything but a pleasant man-
nCThat night he was so lame he could
hardlv walk and the food was so poor
he had not eaten. The second time he
went back for a horse he felt queer,
and the next thing he knew a pollce-
I man was bending over him.
"What's the matter, Kia .- no
"I don't know,'- Howard replied. I
feel tired."
"Guess you fainted," said the PoII.e
man. "Do you belong with the circus.'
"I came with them," said Howard.
"I want to go home, but I have no
money." ...
"I guess you better come with me,
said the officer; but Howard was too
weak to walk and an ambulance was
called. He was soon in a nice clean
bed and it seemed to Howard that he
slept for a year- ,.
When he awoke his father was sit
ting beside him. "How do you feel?"
his father asked. -
"I feel like going home," Howard
said. ,, ,
"Do you want to go home. his
father asked. Howard sat up. "Yes.'
he said, "I want to go home and I
want to see mother. Was she very
frightened when I did not come
home?" . . ,
"Yes," his father said, "she is In bed
now from the scare you gave us."
The tears came Into Howard's eyes.
"I didn't mean to run away," he said.
"I wanted to see the circus and while
I was asleep they put me on the train."
"Yes, I know," said hfs father, "but
you must never disobey your mother
again."
"No," replied Howard. "I'd rather see
mother than all the circusses In tho
world."

. Barbara Boyd,
one Man's Matrimonial Problem.
A READER friend writes me asking
me to help him solve a problem
with which he is wrestling.
It is a pleasure to hear from my
readers and I am glad to discuss with
them any matter which is perplexing
them. Even though I may not be able
to help, it gives me pleasure to think
that perhaps I can be of service to
them, and to make the effort. We are
all one big family In this world or
ours, and to be able to be of use to
each other Is part of the happiness of
living.
This man has indeed a problern, one
which after all nobody but himself can
solve. But perhaps one can strengthen
his vision in regard to certain aspects
of It
It seems that he very truly loves a
young woman, and Judginr from the
way he writes, it Is no passing septl
mental emotion, but a deep and genu
ine regard. He seems to have thought
down to some of the basis essentials of
love and to know what he is doing.
Possibly his past experience men
tioned in the letter is responsible for
this. One obstacle that confronts him
is that the young woman is, as he ex
presses it, "above him." She moves In
a social circle that is considered su
perior to his own. She is better edu
cated. The two have, however, certain
tastes In common. There is one phase
of life In which they are thoroughly
congeni. . In addition, he is a divorced
man. He wants to know whether It
would be right for him to try to win
her love. He knows she likes him. The
Interests they have in common maKe a
string, he thinks, which if harped on
sufficiently, would shut out the other
lnhurmonies, tf indeed they are really

Notwithstanding the fact that
the market price of sugar has

And if ho did, would these other con
ditions later raise their heads to cause
trouble?
It is a problem, isn't It?
If they would come to genuinely love
each other, nothing else would matter.
For a real love makes life happy, and
completely dissipates all the suemlng
elements of discord.
But have they, In this seeming con
geniality, a real basis of genuine re
gard for each other; or Is it merely a
passing delight in their common tustes,
magnified, by reason of its novelty and
surprise, to an importance It really
docs not possess?
I think the answer to this would He
in the fact as to what phase of living
this Is, Just how vital it Is to the real
things of life. If It Is a very important
part of life, the basis really of a happy
life together, then perhaps U is big
enough and solid enough tu build on.
But If it Is only a side Issue of life,
and upon tho Important things of Ufa
they are not congenial, then taking It
as a basis of murrtago would probably
bring the two to grief.
As to the girl's being better educated,
that Is not an insurmountable barrier.
Other things being equal, girls are apt
to be better educated today than the
men they meet as social equals. Wom
en have more time for reading and
study and the pursuit of special
branches of education than men. As to
the (social favorite, social life will not
probably figure largely with her In
the years to come. Besides, both edu
cation and social graces a man can ac
quire if he desires to.
As to his divorce, he knows best why
that came about and whether he is fit
to offer himself to a fine girl.
But it my reader-friend can say he
honestly believes the two of them can
love each other very sincerely and
deeply, that their tastes in common
touch the big, fundamental facts of
life, I would not think that their social
or educational differences need be ol
staoles to keep them apart.
