It ha<s a sinister look, and George, who If brave enough, under all ordinary cir cumstances. was glad that his cornp;;.ni<»n wore a badge and carried a whistle He was also relieved when he caught sight of the burly forfn of a policeman in the shadow of one of the doorways. Y**t the houses he saw before him were not so very different from those they had al ready passed His uneasiness could not have sprung from them They had even an air of positive respectability, as though inhabited by industrious workmen Then, what was it which made the close com panionship nf a member of the police so uncommonly welcome'’ Was it a certain aspect of solitariness which clung to the block, or was it the sudden appearance here and there of strangeh gliding figures, W'hlch no sooner loomed up against the anow'y perspective, than they disappeared • gain In some unseen doorway” ’’There's a meeting on tonight, of the Associated Brotherhood nf the Awl, the Plane and the Trowel 'whatever that means), and it is the speaker we want tn Fee; the man who If to address them promptly at 10 o’clock.

George stood back, and a few words passed between Sweetwater and a Shadowy figure which seemed to have sprung up out of the sidewalk "Balked at the outset," were the en couraging words with which the detective rejoined George. “It seems that a pass word is necessary, and my friend has been unable to get It. \\ ill the speaker pass out this wa\ he inquired of the shadowy figure still lingering in their rear. "He didn’t go in by it; yet 1 believe he’s safe enough inside," was the mut tered answer. Sweetwater had no relish for disap pointments of this character, but it was not long before he straightened up and allowed himself to exchange a few more Words with this mysterious person. These appeared to be of a more encouraging na ture than tie last, for it was not lortg before the detective returned with re newed alacritj to George, and. wheeling him about, began to retrace his steps to the corner ’’Ate we going back? Are you going to give up the job?" George asked. “No; we re going to take him from the rear There's a break in the fence Oh, we'll do vers well. Trust me.” George laughed. He was growing ex cited. but not altogether agreeably so He eays that he has seen moments of more pleasant anticipation. Evidently, my good husband Is not cut out for detective work. Where they went under this officer’s guidance, he can not tell. The tortuous tangle of alleys through which he now felt himself led was dark as the nether regions to his unaccustomed eyes There was snow under his feet and now and then he brushed against some obtruding object, or stumbled against a low fence; but beyond these slight miscalculations on his own part, he was a mere au tomaton in the hands of his eager guide, and only became his own man again when they suddenly stepped into an open yard and he could discern plainly before him the dark walls of a building pointed out by Sweetwater as their probable dost inn lion. Yet even here they encountered some impediment which prohibited a close approach A wall or shed cut off their view of the building's lower story; and though somewhat startled at being left unceremoniously alone after just a whis pered word of encouragement from the ever-ready detective, George could quite understand the necessity which that per son must feel for a quiet reconnoitering of the surrou till Ings before the. two of them ventured further forward In their possibly hazardous undertaking Yet the experience was none too pleasing to George, and he was very glad to hear Sweetwater's whisper again at his ear, and to feel himself rescued from the pool of slush In which he had been left to stand. "The approach Is not all that can be desired," remarked the detective as they entered what appeared to be a low shed. “The broken board has been put back and securely najled in place, and if I am not ve,ry much mistaken there is a fellow sta tioned In the yard who will want the pass-word too. Looks shady to me. I'll have something to tell the chief when 1 get back.” “But we! What are wo going to do if we can not get in front or rear?" “We re going to wait right here in the hopes of catching a glimpse of our man as he comes out," returned the detective, drawing George towards a low window overlooking the yard be had described as sentinelled “He will have to pass direct ly under this window on his way to the alley." Sweetwater went on to explain, “and If 1 can onl> raise it- hut the noise would give us away.

The window from which they ' peered, was half-way down this yard, so - .that a comparatively short distance sepa ) rated them from the porch where George E had been told to look for the man h»- was, expected to identify All was dark there 1 at present, but he could hear from time I 1 to time some sounds of restless move- I » ment. as the guard posted inside shifted I , in his narrow quarters. or struck his be numbed feet softly together. But what came to them from above . 1 was more interesting than anything to 1 he heard or seen below A man's voice, , raised to a wonderful pitch by the pas sion of oratory, had burst the harriers of • the chose.l hall in that towering third story and was ca ying its tale to other ears than ihos* within Had it been , summer and the windows open, both George and Sweetwater might have heard every word; for the tones were .excep tionally rich and penetrating, and the 1 speaker Intent only on the impression he was endeavoring 10 make upon his audi ence. That he had not mistaken his power in this direction was evinced by the applause which rose from time to time from innumerable hands and feet. But this uproar would be speedily’ si lenced, and the mellow voice ring out again, clear and commanding. What could the subject be to rouse such en thusiasm in the Associated Brotherhood of the Awl, the Plane and the Trowel” There was a moment when our listening friends expected to be enlightened. A shutter was ’hrown back in one of those upper windows, and the window’ hurriedly raised, during which words took the place of sounds, and they heard enough tq whet their appetite for more But only that. The shutter was speedily restored to place and the wdndow again closed. A wise precaution, or so thought George, if they | wished to keep their doubtful proceed I ings secret A tirade against the rich and a loud | call to battle could be •gleaned from the 1 few sentences they had hoard. But its ; virulence and pointed attack was not : that of the second-rate demagogue or business agent, but of a man whose in tellect and culture rang In ever.v tone, and Informed each sentence.

In whom satisfaction was fast taking the place if impatience and regret, pushed the window to before ask ing George this question: “Did you hear the voice of the man wi.ose act ion attracted your attention out sale tl)< 1 ’lermont?"

I shan’t open this window r n till he gives signs of reaching the • 1 •<!’ his speech. It’s too cold." But almost immediately he gave a start and. pressing George's arm, ap peared to listen, not to the speech, which wtiß no longer audible, but to something much nearer a step or movement in the adjoining yard. At least, so George in terpreted the quick turn which this im petuous detective made, and the pains he took to direct George’s attention to the walk running under the window beneath which they crouched. Some one was stealing down upon the house at their left, from the alley beyond. A big man. whose shoulder brushed the window as he wont by. ( George felt his hand seized again and pressed as this happened, and before he had recovered from this excite ment, experienced another quick pressure and still another, as one, two, three additional figures went slipping by. 'Phen his hand was suddenly dropped, for a cry had shot up from the door where the sentinel stood guard, followed by a loud slam, and the noise of a shooting bolt, which, proclaiming as it did that the in vaders wore not friends, but enemies to the cause which was being vaunted above, so excited Sweetwater that he pulled the window wide open and took a bold look out. George followed his example and this was what they saw: Three men were standing flat against the fence leading from the shed directly to the porch. The fourth was crouch ing within the latter, and in another mo ment they’ heard his fist descend upon the door inside in away to rouse the echoes Meantime, the voice in the au dience hall above had ceased, and there could be heard instead the scramble of hurrying feet and the noise of overturn ing benches. Then a window flew up and a voice called down: “\VI>o s that? W hat do you want down there?” But before an answer could be shouted back, this man was drawn fiercely inside, and the scramble was renewed, amid which George heard Sweet water’s whis per at his ear; "It's the police.

UtHEN I was a jittle girl it wor ' tied me greatly because my eyebrows and eyelashes were I so very light and so faint that they were barely perceptible. 1 must have looked like an animated question mark, for nothing makes the face look so inquisitive, not to say fool ish, as extremely light and faint, eye brows. and while it's all right in a child, it becomes very distressing as one gets older. So one day, in real despair, I set to work and clipped such meager eye brows as I had and. cut them off com pletely. Then 1 got a little girl friend to ent off my eyelashes, too, because. I had read somewhere that that would make them glow. Nobody noticed that anything espe cial had happened to my appearance until it suddenly dawned upon the fam ily at the supper table that I had lost my already slender claims to good looks, and that they had been sacri ficed upon the altar of early vanity. What is tile use of remembering past scoldings! I got a very good one, which I remember to this day. Also my eyelashes did not come In for a long time, and finally 1 had to be taken to a doctor, and salve was applied every night to make the hair grow. Some times the salve got into my eyes and made them smart, and at all events the performance made an indelible impres sion on my memory, so 1 have come to think nice eyebrow s and eyelashes quite invaluable to good looks. A Great Help. As clipping them proved perfectly useless, in my ease, I doubt if it is of any use at all, though I know it is fre quently recommended. However, if the eyebrows are too scant, a little vase line will generally make them grow, and so will hair tonic if you use it regularly. Many people would have beautiful eyebrows if they only took a little care of them, and 1 often wonder why it is that girls who want to be pretty don’t pay more attention to this very impor tant feature in the t'r. st place, there are the eye brows, which look dirty and untidy, because there are tiny particles of dan druff in them. 1 think this can be all removed if the eyebrows are scrubbed Nadine Face Powder (F» Green Boxes Only.)

Another thing that I find most un pleasant to look at are the wild-look ing eyebrows which one sees even on young girls. These look as if they need brushing ami combing, som’etimes even braiding: they are so wild look ing and coarse. No one has to be inflicted with eye brows like this. The coarse hairs can be pulled out and the eyebrows trained into better behavior by brushing them once a day with a tiny brush dipped in olive oil or cocdanut oil.

The long, straight, archless, narrow and delicately pencilled eyebrow was the old ideal, but the modern eyebrow, at least the one which our modern art ists like z Christy, Gibson, James Mont gomery Flagg and Hutt draw on their pretty girls, is not the straight kind, but the highly arched brow. If you can make you: eyebrows look as if they were very far away from your eyes the eye will look larger >nd the face more refined. When the eyebrows are very scant, it is Usually a sign of poor health, except In red-haiied persons. These scant eyebrows can be strengthened by con stant brushing, and they can be made tu look darker by combing tlvem with soapy water and letting the soap dry on them. A great many people have eyebrows that meet over the bridge of the nose. This is supposed to be the sign of a jealous or melancholy disposition. I suppose if you change your dis position it would be no harm to take away the guide post and pull out those quite superfluous hairs. Eyebfrows can be trimmed into al most any shape with a little ten-cent pair of tweezers, and there is no reason why one should allow them to grow across the nose or to scatter, as they sometimes do, right in she middle of the arch. Very few. girls have the pencilled eyebrow which is supposed to'be such a natural beauty. More of them have eyebrows that are made with a pencil, and look it. It is really not necessary to color the eyebrows artificially, unless they are absolutely white, or flax blonde —then they can sometimes be dark ened by brushing them with stfong, black tea. Let the tea get just as dark as possible, have eyebrows clean and free from grease, and brush the tea over them. Massaging the eyebrows, pinching them and kneading the flesh beneath with the forefingers and thumb will often stimulate the growth and is an other way of making the line shapely. I think that many girls make a great mistake when they pencil an otherwise fine line of eyebrow, making it darker and thicker. These thick lines not only loo'k artificial, but they take away from the refinement of the face anti make it look coarse and heavy. For myself, I cultivate my eyebrows with a tiny little brush dipped in glyc erine and rosewater, half and half. I would no more think of going on the street without brushing my eyebrows than I would go out with my hair un tidy, or my shoes not polished, for I believe that the eyebrow has so much to do with maiflng the face pleasing and attractive, and especially in mak ing one look tidy and well dressed. © © The Manicure Lady © © Ry William F.

I was up to see Mister and Mrs, Mcßeth and I didn't get home at all. It was raining when the party broke up. and they wouldn't let me go home at all if I had wanted to go, which I didn’t. There was a sweet little girl there named Gibson, from Detroit, and between Mister Mcßeth's recitations and the rest of the conver sation everything passed away lovely.
