Jockey Mason's romance was now dls slpatcd Into thin air. The contents ot the portmanteau, the squalid appearance of the house, tho date of the soldier's letter, the bundle of pawn tickets, offered con clusive evidence to tha Inspector's matter of-fact mind that tho ex-convlct's story was tho effect of a truncheon rapidly applied to a brain excited by tho news paper comments on a sensational yam about some boy who had found a parcel of diamonds. This youngster had not bsn favorod by any such extraordinary piece of luck Simple chance had led him to put the pollco on the track of a much-wanted scoundrel and he had very bravely pre vented a member of the force from being badly worsted In the ensuing encounter A subscription would be made among the officers and men of the division and they would give him a silver watch with a suitable Inscription. Tho inspector noted tho address given by Phjllp. It was on the tip of his tonguo to nsk his Christian hame, when the con stublo suggested that' they should cx-' amino the stable In which Mason had hidden. They went up tho mews. Philip locked his door, extinguished tho candle and lay down on thq mattress, fully dressed with his nawly bought rug for covering. Ho was so utterly tired, so exhausted physically and mentally by the storm and stress of this eventful day that he was sound asleep when the two men returned. They saw him through the window. "IIo's a fine lad," uald the inspector, thoughtfully. "I wonder what he Is going to make of himself. Wo might have asked him who his friends wero, hut they are not badly off, or he couldn't havo got that bag and his new clothes. What on earth caused Mason to connect him with that diamond story?" "It's hard to say," observed the con stable. 'I will look round and have a chat with htm in tho morning. Poor, little chup, He's sleeping llko a top now." The Inspector called at No. 3 John son's MeWs soon after 10 next morning, but the door was locked and the Jilrd had flown. Ho poke to Muson. after that worthjr was remanded for a week, but a night's painful seclusion had sealed tho burglar's lips, Ho avowed, with fearful emphasis, to "get even'- with the kid who "hated" him, for tho policeman's evl donee had revealed the truth concerning tho arrest. But not another word would Mason ray about tho diamonds, nnd for a llttlo while tho Inspector placed his overnight revelations In the category of myths familiar to the police In their dally dealings with criminals. Philip awoke shortly before 7. He was cold and stiff. The weather was chilly, nnd there was no ardent meteor In the back yard to keep the temperature of the homo at a grateful point during the night. Hut hla active young frame quickly dis sipated the effects ot a deep sleep on n draughty floor Ho washed his face and hands at the sink in the scullery and his nxet tho gii was for breakfast, a proof, If proof wero. needed, that he arose re freshed In mind and body. In the Mile End Road there are plenty of early morning restaurants. At one ot them he made a substantial meal, and, on his return to the Mews, he lost not a moment In carrying out k systematic search through all parts of the house and yard for nny traces of the meteor which might have escaped his ken In the darkness. Amid the earth and broken stones ot tho excavation thero were a few frag ments of ore and some atomic specimens ot the dlamantlferous material not suf ficient, all told, to fill the palm of his hand. Hut he gathered them up for obvl ous reasons arid then dovoted five vigor ous minutes with O'Brien's spade to the task of filing up the deep hole. Itself, By lowering the flagstones and break ing the earth beneath he soon gave the small yard an appearance of chaos which might certainly putsle people, but which would afford no possible clue to the na turo of the disturbing element, At best they might Imagine that the dread evidence of come weird crime lay In the broken' area. If so, they could dig until they were tired. But, Indeod, he was now 'guarding against a most unlikely hypothesis. Tho probability was that Johnson's Mews .would soon cease to exist and becorrje almost as fabulous as the Island of Atlantis. Moreover, he had a project dimly out lined in his mind which might becomo deflnlto If all went well with him that day. Then the ownership of No. 3 John son's Mews would cease to trouble him, for Philip was quite sure the 'who! power of the law would be Invoked a prevent him from dealing with' his me teor If once the exact place where it fell became publicly known. O'Brien's shop was scarcely open be fore Philip was there with his remaining portmanteau. "Arrah, Phil, me boy, where In the namo of goodness are ye gntherln' the boe-utlful leather thrunks from?" askol the pensioner. "This Is the last one,'1 laughed the boy "I am off now to find a cab, and you won't see me again until Monday." "Kalx, he's a wonderful lad entirely," What, typo of expression does your hat call out upon your faco ant suggest to tho boholder? ..Tho Pnrlslonno, wisest of wonion in tho luro of clothes, lias learned that alio may accentuato her typo by the hat sho wears. Hero Is a llttlo study of hor methods. ,'ln tho plcturo at tha top wo have tho plcturcsquo and nggroBslvo type of beauty accented by tho flaring white hat that frames tho faco and -brings out, in daring stylo ngalnst its wldo background overy fcatliro ot tho face whoso bold beauty challenges the passing staro. The second siiows demuro simplicity. Tho soft rolling brim of black fur topped by a Tatn o' Bhahtor crown of whito velvet ncrollod in black is girlish nnd sweet, and tho uigrotto that trims it straight up tho front adds a contrasting note of abruptness to tho softness brought out by tho rest of tho hat. Tho third hat Is a little black plcturo hat whoso simple adaptation of masculine sevority to femlnlno curves mnkoa it a fine foil for tho dreamy typo of boauty. It Is simply an adaptation of tho "Bowler" hat done in black velvet, girdled In groa grain ribbon and trimmed with a little curling -plaque of paradlso. Tho last hat Is for tho coquette who can wear tho daring llttlo trl- corno with., a dashing air that Is almost military. It- Is of green velvet facod In soft brown satin. Tho cockado at tho side is a little "paint brush" fantasia In shaded'greens and brownB caught under a chou of soft brown velvet. Find your typo and you will know which hat to chooso. OLIVETTE, commented tho old inu.ii. "What sort uf plundher has ho In tho bags, at all, ut all?" In Idle curiosity ho lifted tho last addi tion to tho pile. It was normal, even light in weight. Then he nodded know ingly. "A lot of ould duds .belongln' to Mrs Anson, I'll be boun. Ah, well, tho Iord rest her sow), 'tis sho was tho fine wo man. I wsh I had some one as cllver as her to write for me to Unit .thufo of the 'worruld who thrled" As there ore no signs In the art ot literature similar to those which serve tho needs of muslclals, whereby thoughts can bo expressed de capo, like a musical phrase, without risk ot wearying the reader, It must be understood that Philip had returned from far-away Kenchurch street station with a four-whc!er be fore O'Brien exhausted the first ttrado of the day against the AVar office. With a cunning that amounted to genous, the boy placed the largo light portmantoau and tho two small heavy ones on the roof of the vehicle, whrre the driver did not notice thoa least pecul iarity In their weight. The two large, heavy bags ho managed to lift Into the interior, one dt them need ing all his resources to carry It from the shop door to the cab. Were he not fresh and untlrod, ho could not have done li. As It was the effort wns a splendid suc cess. The cabman knew little, and O'Brien less, of tho tremendous avoirdupois ot this innocent looking baggage. A long suffering horse may have had his private Views, but he did not express them. I (To He Continued Tomorrow ) 1 Make This and Try Jt for Coughs This IIamentadc Remedy hsi no Hqttal for Prompt IlcsuKs. Mix one pint of granulated sugar with Vi int of warm water, and stir for 2 minutes. Put 2& ounces of Plnex (fifty cents' worth) in a pint bottle; then add tho Stiirar byntp. Take a tcaspoonful every one, two or three 'hours. This simple remedy takes hold of a cough more quickly than anything else you ever used. Usually conquers an ordinary cough insido of 24 hours. Splendid, too, for whooping cough, spasmodic croup and bronchitis, li stimulates tho appetite and, is slightly laxative, which helps end a cough. This makes more and better cough syrnn than you could buy ready made for $K60. It keeps perfectly and tastes pleasant. Finer, is a most valuable concen tiated compound of JTorway white pine extract, and is rich in guaiacol and other natural pine elements which are so healing to the membranes. Other preparations will not work in this plan. Making cough syrup with Finex and sugar syrup (or strained honey) has proven so popular throughout the United States and Canada that it is oftea imitated. But tho old, successful mix ture has never been equaled. A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or money promptly refunded, goes with this preparation. Your druggist has Finex or will get it for you.
