BROWNf SYNOPSIS--Re*lUln* that She hM a possible chance of being saved, as the Lusitanta Is sinking, a stranger gives a young American girl a package which he asks her to deliver to the American ambassador In England. She is saved. In London, former Lieut. "Tommy" Beresford and Miss Prudence Cowley •--"Tuppence"--discharged army nurse, form an organisation, "The Young Adventurers, Ltd." They are both broke and consequently ready (or unorthodox methods. They write out an advertisement. Tuppence makes a business appointment with a man. Edvard Whittington, who offers her easy employment, but on giving her name as "Jane Finn," which she , had heard on the street. Whittington disappears. In answer to an advertisement signed "Jane Finn5»"thS\two receive notes from\ "Mr. Carter" and "Julius P.* Hersheimmer." Carter, a high government ofllcialj^ spMrks^of aHiysterious "Mr. ErtSwn" as heaJTof the Bolsheviki >"fn England, and engages the pair to find Jane Finn, whom he la seeking1 for Important reasons of state. Next day the pair visits Hershelmmer, American millionaire. He is looking for his cousin, Jane Finn, who had disappeared after landing from the Lusitanla's boats, and employs them to search for her. They discover a Mrs. Vandemeyer is a Lusit&nia survivor. Tuppence recognises Whittington In a caller on Mrs. Vandemeyer. Tommy trails him. Whittington leaves for France. Hersheimmer follows him. Tommy trails Boris. Whittington's companion, to a house in Soho. He overhears details of a Bolshevik and labor plot to overturn the government. Success apparently depends on finding a secret treaty made between the allies during the war. Tommy is caught listening, and knocked senseless. Sensing sinister relations between Whittington and Mrs. Vandemeyer, Tuppence disguises herself and becomes a parlor maid. During a conversation between a visitor, "Boris." and Mrs. Vandemeyer, in which the name of Sir James Peel Edgerton, famous criminal lawyer, is mentioned. Tuppence hears talk of an "organization." Next day Edgerton visits Mrs. Vandemeyer, and on leaving advises Tuppence to give up her position, but refuses to give a reason. On her "day off" Tuppence goes to Bee Hersheimmer, who has discovered nothing of' importance in France. Tommy's continued absence worries Tuppence. They visit Edgerton and tell him the whole story. He promises to assist her, making an engagement to visit her that evening at the Vandemeyer home. Returning to the place. Tuppence finds she has been discovered. Mrs. Vandemeyer tries to make her drink poison. , CHAPTER VII--ContiniMd. •x-'v --io-- 1 * •Then I shan't drink it," said Toppttce firmly. *Td much rather be •hot At any rate, that would make a row, and someone might bear it Bat I won't be killed off quietly n*r» a lamb." "Don't be a little fool! Do yon really think I want a hue and cry for marder out after me? It's a sleeping draft, that's all. YouH wake up tomorrow morning none the worse. I simply dqn't want the bother of tying you up and gagging yob. That's the alternative--and w>u won't like it, I can tell you! I can be very rough if I choose. So drink this down like a good girl, and youU be none the worse for It" In her heart of hearts Tuppence believed her. The arguments she had adduced rang true. It was a simple and effective method of getting her oot of the way for the time being. Nevertheless, the girl did not take kindly to the idea of being tamely put to deep without as much as one bid for freedom. She felt that once Mrs. Vandemeyer gave them the slip, the last hope of finding Tommy would be gone. Tuppence was quick in her mental processes. All these reflections passed through her mind in a. flash, and she •aw where a chance, a very problematical chance, lay, and she determined to risk all in one supreme ef- Accordingly, she lurched, suddenly eC the bed and fell on her knees before Mrs. Vandemeyer, clutching her •klrts frantically. "I don't believe It," she moaned. •It's poison--I know it's poison. Oh, don't make me drink it"--her voice t*se to a shriek--"don't make me . JHnk it !" Mrs. Vandemeyer, glass in hand, tooked down with a curling lip at this fjUdden collapse. "Get up, you little idiot! Don't go en driveling there. How you ever had (he nerve to play your part as you did i can't think." She stamped her foot. *^Get up, I say."

The next moment she had sprung back a pace, and the revolver pointed straight at Mrs. Vandemeyer's heart, with no unsteadiness In the hand that held it In the moment of victory, Tuppence betrayed a somewhat unsportsmanlike triumph. "Now who's on top and who's underneath?" she crowed. The other's face was convulsed with rage. For a minute Tuppence thought she was going to spring upon her, which would have placed the girl in an unpleasant dilemma, since she meant to draw the line at actually letting off the revolver. However, with an effort Mrs. Vandemeye. controlled herself, and at last a slow evil smile crept over her face. "Not a fool, then, after all! You did that well, girl. But you shall pay for it--oh, yes, you shall pay for It! I have a long memory!" 'Tm surprised you should have been gulled so easily," said Tuppence scornfully. "Did you really think I was the kind of girl to roll about on the floor and whine for mercy?" 'You may--some day!" said the other significantly. The cold malignity of her manner sent an unpleasant chill down Tuppence's spine, but she was not going to give in to It Supposing we clt down," she said pleasaptly. •'Our present attitude Is a llttk melodramat'c. Now, let's talk." 'What about?" said Mrs. Vandemeyer sullenly. Tuppence eyed her thoughtfully for a minute. She was remembering several things. Boris' words, "I believe you would sell--us!" and her answer, "The price would have to be enormous," given lightly, it was true, yet might not there be a stubborn substratum of truth in It? Long ago, had not Whittington asked: "Who's been blabbing? Rita?" Would Rita Vandemeyer prove to be the weak spot In the armor of Mr. Brown? Keeping her eyes fixed steadily on the other's face, Tuppence replied quietly: "Money--" Mre. Vandemeyer started. Clearly, the reply was unexpected. 'What do you mean?" Til tell you. You raid Just now that you had a long memory. A long memory Isn't half as useful as a long purse! Revenge Is very unsatisfactory; Every one always says so. But money--well, there's nothin< unsatisfactory about money, is there?" "Do you think," said Mrs. Vandemeyer scornfully, "that I am the kind of woman to sell my friends?" 'Yes," said Tuppence promptly. "If the price was big enough. I should suggest--a hundred thousand pounds." Her economical spirit did not permit her to mention ti e whole million dollars suggested by Julius. • flush crept over Mrs. Vandemeyer's face. • "What did yon sty?" she asked, her fingers playing Lervously with a brooch on her breast In that moment Tuppence knew that the fish was hooked. "A hundred thousand pounds," repeated Tuppence. The light died out of Mrs. Vandemeyer's eyes. She leaned back In her chair. "Bah!" she said. "You haven't got It" "No," admitted Tuppence, "I havent --but I know some one who has." "Must be a millionaire," remarked Mrs. Vandemeyer unbelievingly. "As a matter of 'act, he is. He's an American. He'll pay you that wltlioi I'm afraid something's happened to him, through your pal Boris." "What's his name?" k ,r "Tommy Beresford." > "Never heard of him. Bat Fll aftk Boris.

' Her quick eyes sa# -the-' guffaeu paling of the beautiful face. With an effort Mrs. Vandemeyer pulled herself together and tried to resume her former manner. Bat the attempt was a mere parody. She shrugged her shoulders. "You can't have learnt much about us if yon don't know that nobody, knows who Mr. Brown is. . . ." "You do," said Tuppence quietly. Again the color deserted the other% face. * "What makes you think that?" i "I don't know," said the girl truthfully. "But I'm sure." .Mrs. Vandemeyer stared In front of her for a long time. ( "Yes," she said hoarsely, at last, "I know. I was beautiful, you see--very beautiful--" "You are still," said Tuppence with admiration. Mrs. Vandemeyer shook !»er head. "Not beautiful enough," she said In a soft dangerous voice. "Not--beautiful --enough! And sometimes, lately, I've been afraid. . . . It's dnngerous to know too much!" She leaned forward across the table. "Swear that uiy name shan't be brought Into It--that no one shall ever know." "I swear It. And. once he's caught, you'll be out of danger," A terrified look swept across Mrfc Vandemeyer's face. v "Shall I? Shall "I ever be?" She clutched Tuppence's arou. "You're sore Aout the money?" "Quite sure." "When shall I have it? There must be no delay." "This friend of mine will be here presently.

It's a great sum of mo"ney, and besides"--she gave a curious smile--"It Is not--wl»» to throw over a woman like me!" For a moment or two, she remained smiling, and lightly tapping her fingers on the table. Suddenly she started, and her face blanched* "What was tLat?" "I heard nothing." Mrs. Vandemeyer gaaed round her fearfully. If there should be some one listening. I tell you I'm frightened. You don't know him!" 'Think of the hundred thousand pounds," said Tuppence soothingly. Mrs. Vandemeyer passed her tongue over her dried lips. 'You don't know him,"'die reiterated hoarsely. "He's--ah!" With a shriek of terror she sprang to her feet. Her outstretched hand pointed over Tuppence's head. Then she swayed to the ground in a dead faint. Tuppence looked round to see what had startled her. In the doorway were Sir James Peel Edgerton ind Julius HersheltnflMr, up--then fell back with a groan, her hand to her side: "It's my heart" she whispered, ft mustn't talk." She lay back with closed eyes. T; Sir James kept his finger on her wrist a minute longer* then withdrew it with a nod. "Siie'Ii do now." All three moved away, and stood together talking in low voices. One and all were conscious of a certain feeling of anticlimax. Clearly any scheme for cross-questioning the lady was out of the question for the moment. For the- time being they were baffled, and could do nothing. Tuppence related how Mrs. Vande» meyer had declared herself willing to disclose the identity of Mr Brown, and how she had consented to discover and reveal to them the whereabouts Jane Finn. ' ! "^ell," said Tuppence, with an etj tetfipt at cheerfulness, "we must wait; tttat's all. But I uon't think we ought to leave the flat." i "What about leaving that bright boy; of yours on guard?"

Apparently Mrs. Vandemeyer Slept . the fiat--If only for Mrs. Vandemeyer's sake." Julius stared at him. "You think he'd get after her? Between now and tomorrow morning. How could he know, even?" "We have a very formidable adversary. I believe, if we exercise all due care, that there is a very good chance of his being delivered Into our hands. But we must neglect no precaution. We have an Importi-nt witness, but she must be safeguarded. I would suggest that Miss Tuppence should go to bed, and that you and I, Mr. Hershelmmer, should share the vigil. Tuppence was about to protest, but happening to glance at the bed she saw Mrs. Vandemeyer, her eyes half-open, with such an expression of mingled fear and malevolea_*e on her face that it quite froze the words on her Hps. For a moment she wondered whether the faint md the heart attack had been a gigantic rham, but remembering the deadly pallor she could hardly credit the suppositlou. As she looked the expression disappeared as by magic, and Mrs. vnndemeyer lay Inert and motionle s as bef e. For a moment the girl fancied she must have dreamt It. But she determined nevertheless to be on the alert. She hesitated a moment by the" bed. The intensity of the expression she had surprised had impressed her powerfully. Mrs. Vandemeyer lifted her lids. She seemed to be struggling to speak. Tuppence bent ove. her. "Don't--leave--" .he : -emed unable to proceed, murmuring something that sounded like "sleepy." Tuppence bent wer still. It was only a breath. ' "Mr.--Brown--" The voice stopped. But the lialf-dosed eyes seemed still to send an agonized message! Moved by a sudden lmpu>;e, the girl said quickly: "I shan't lea*» flat I Shall sit up all night." A flash of relief showed before the lids descended once more. Apparently Mrs. Vandemeyer slept. But her words bad awakened a new uneasiness In Tuppence. What had she meant by that low murmur, "Mr. Brown?" Tuppence caught herself nervously looking over her shoulder, THe big wardrobe loomed u;j In a sinister fashion before her eyes. Plenty of room for a man to hida In that. . . . Half-ashamed of he/self. Tuppence pulled It open Lnd looked Inside, No one--of course! She stooped down and looked under the bed. There was no other possible hiding place.

They take on an air of importance in clothes like these, at the same time losing none of their femininity and beauty, and they are dressed correctly for almost any hour of the day. • really well-fitting suit Is not an easy thing to achieve, for jne cannot go into a department store, try on a suit and walk out with what Is called a perfectly1 fitting garment. Tailored suits do not grow that way. They must be fitted 'and coaxed and prayed over before they assume the shape that Is right. But once havlug achieved this perfection, they* hold meir lines through an eternity of months, not to say years. They can be subjected to as many pressings as a man's suit usually knows, and each time they Emerge from the cleaning and pressing process something seems to have been added to their appearance, rather than subtracted. Some tailors are wizards. They can shape the lines of a simple *u!t so that they make the largest figure look slim and those out of proportion seem to snap right Into harmony under the magic touch of tbelr fingers. -No woman need fear the wearing of a tailored suit so long as she makes up her mind to have hers right to begin with. Each Distinct in Itself There are several styles and types of the new tailored suits, but each one la distinct in itself and the lines of one must not be mixed with those of another If the style ana smartness are to be preserved. Xhere is the short box coat, for Instance. All of Its lines are so straight that .they could be measured witn a ruler. The straight collar and the clipped revers, with tightly-fitting sleeves, are necessary: Then there is the single-breasted line to complete the arrangement Everything without exception is straight and uncompromising In cut and making. Every aeam is smartly tailored without having any of that stiff look which once upon a time characterized suits that were tailor^ made. All skirts for suits are short They are a good deal shorter than they hava been, for women have found that the shorter skirts were necessary to their comfort and have demanded them back again with so much persistency that they are upon us. The taller women can wear them from- ten to eleven Inches from the ground and the shorter ones have theirs as short, sometimes, as seven inches. The three-quarter coat Is seen among these tailored suits, but It Is usually a part of the tweed costumes or those made of thick and heavy homespuns. In this case the sleeves are made with a trifle more width and the coat has a bit more fullness as it reaches to Its three-quarter line. The collars, too, have a trifle more latitude In the manner of tnelr shaping and are likely to reach high about the neck. Dresses Are Vary Straight """" There are tailored dresses made of serge and again of the more pliable homespuns. They are straight In the extreme, but they keep thaf tailored look and line until It Is Impossible to tell at first glance whether they are coats or suits or just plain dresses. They are almost devoid of trimming, with only bound and braided ^Kes to distinguish them from the more severely tailored suits. There Is one suit which Is fitted In at the waistline, though ever so slightly. It has an Individual air and when one Is gifted with a good figure and classic lines there is nothing that can set off Its beauty to oetter advantage than' this model of a suit It is made of black rep or dark blue twill or sometimes of tan or gray In these same fabrics. It Is often oound with braid to carry out the formality of Its design and great pains t>ave been taken to arrange Its fastenings In the way of small buttons. The sklrrts of all these suits are plain, else they would not he tailored. No plaits are permitted, and the fitting of the skirt Is so slim as to be almost tight, it Is a continuation of the line of the coat and nothing mora. Sometimes It has two pockets In the front but these are Inconspicuously Inserted, mere silts with tailored edges. When it comes ro the woaring of a suit there are accessories to be considered. Unless they are right the suit Itself amounts to nothing. And It Is a fact that the extra fixings one wears with suits differ materially from those worn with other sorts of clothes. They also take on that tailored air, even though they cannot be cutlet the last word In tailoring. They drop, as It were, all extra loops and dangles, and remain plain after the manner of the suit. They must* harmonize or they will throw*the whole scheme out of key and the result will be an unhappy one on account of the jarring note or two. For the suits of this season, the manner of the accessories has changed ! somewhat What used to be considered smart for wear wHth suits Is now passe. J Plain Hats Have the Call Hats are plain. * Many of them have no trimming, merely arrangements of lines, that go to make up the shape. The clever designer lets It go at that, having spent all of her energy and her artistic Rklll upon the creation of that one thing--its shape and color. The poke bonnet is a favorite for suits. It has little or no trimmtng. but sometimes Its brim !s made of brocade or embroidery and again Its crown is so bedecked, but the pattern is so much of an all-over affair that it can hardly be called trimming, it IS a fabric in Itself and part of the hat's construction. Tams are good, especially of the all-over embroidered variety. Then there Is the cloche, which to just as smsrt today as It was at the beginning of the summer season. It Is dark In tone, usually, and Its trimming Is likely to be of the same color. In ribbon or some flat sort of feather arrangement. The brim often turns down all the way around the face, but sometimes It turns back just a wee bit over the face and again at the back, giving a coy effect, much mora becoming ro certain faces than tha more severe line. Gloves are another Important matter. The gauntlets are good, and the mousquetalre even better. The latter are short and roll over the fitted sleeves of the coat In a graceful and intersting fashion. The short, wristlength glove practically Is no more, for the glove Is depended upon these days to do Its part In th general design of the costume. Shoes and stockings are Important There are pointed and graceful slippers meant to be worn wltn the sort of tailored suit which has just been described and they are even ornate In appearance. The stockings are light worn either wtth shoes to match or with black pumps. The 'kerchief Is, an Important part of all clothes Just now, whether It be one that is extremely large and ample or one of those little play handkerchief affairs that are meaut to stick Into the oocket of your suit to give that touch of bright color so much to be desired when the modern styles are considered as a who!* ? it Mil to • paint to tWr Satin and Velvet Are Used in Combination HISTORY MADE IN PAPER FACTORY French Revolution 8ald to Have Had Its Inception In Institution of the Revelllons. Included among the first wall paper makera In America was Joseph Bumstead, of Boston. He traveled In France In 1824, and also ten years later. He left an Interesting diary of the Industry. Bumstead visited the Zuber works In Alsace and In his diary wrote that Zuber had succeeded In 1829, In making the first paper in continuous rolls at his paper factory In Ropperswlller, and had sold the English rights for $5,000. In 1850 Zuber took back from Manchester, England, the first wall paper printing machine used In France. A few years later nearly all wall papers were machine prlfttftd In designs that w«n mostly bad. History records that It was at a wall paper factory, the famous Royal Manufactory of Reveillon, that the French revolution broke out on April 18,1789. Reveillon employed more than 300 workmen. A rumor had been circulated that the workmen were to be taxed 15 sous a day, and that "bread was too good for them." A mob assembled #nd proceeded to pillage the factory. The furniture and fixtures were thrown out into the street. The troops were cal.ed out. Reveillon fled to London where he passed the ra» malnder of bis life. Straight Lines. "Agnes slipped on her veranda last night." *"Well, did It fll Me."--Tar Using felt In combination with fabric Is one of the interesting things spoken of by millinery buyers upon returning from Paris. Felt will be used extensively with other fabrics, particularly with satin at the present time and later on with hatter's plush and velvet. For Instance, In one of the models from Rose Descat the shape is a small high side roll of black felt faced with black satin and trimmed on the low side with two pompons of green and black marabou. Everyone of Descat's hats seem to have a little denting or creasing of the brim. Caroline Reboux Is using a great deal of ostrich and several models of black satin have the ostrich treated In extreme effects. Instead of the glycerin, which Is still such a favor- Ite wltto other milliners, Reboux Is exploiting a great deal more of the natural ostrich. f The combination of felt and fabric Is again noted in a .Maria Uuy large shape, with a brown felt crown and a brim of brown taffeta, wide on tha sides and trimmed with a large loop and end of kolinsky backed with wide faille ribbon. Black panne Is used for a little turned-up, brim shape which Is pinched up to the crown on one side, where these Is a black and white glycerin ostrich fancy hanging down like a tassel on the hair.
