CHAPTER XVI
When Lucy heard Tom Haveril
calling to her softly from the living
room she went to him.
When site came slowly into the
living room he chanced first of all
upon the few simple words which
et the time could most of all avail
Mtn. He said quite simply:
"Lr cy, I love you so ! "
'Do you, Tom?" she returned
softly, wonderingly.
"You know I do, Lucy. And l
want you to marry me now, right
now. 1 want you to come away with
me, to my place. Will yoti, Lucy?"
Off For The Preacher!
The Judge came in and said,
"Ha! What's going on here?" And
then he laughed genially.
"He—wants me to marry him—
right away!" gasped Lucy,
"I thought 1 saw it coming," said
the Judge. He oame to her to put
his fatheily arms about her; she
shrank back and ran headlong to
her room. But she laughed back
at them when they knocked at her
door and after a while she said.

in a •secret and hidden 'Oen in the
mountains, w:,s thinking of Lacy
and of the judge and of Tom Ha-
veril as he saddled.
:He called and Sarboe came slint-
fling from the place.
"I can't wait any longer, Sar-
boe," said Barry. "I've got to see
my sister and Timberline and Ken
March, and let them know I'm al-
ive. And there's someone else—"
Re was thinking of Ludy Blue.
Sarboe naturally supposed he spoke
of Tom Haveril.
"Conte with me, Sarboe? Or wait-
ing here?"
"I'll Come Back For You"
Sarboe answered with a grimace
and a shake of the head. Barry had
got into the way of reading the
;meaning of Sarboes slightest ges-
ture. Front: the time he hacl been

Penne' and Longo swung, he had

Dieaapnearance of Paris as din-
• tutor of women's fashions ends
a rule of nearly 500 years, As
early as 1515, the reputation of
Paris for elegance hacl spread
throughout Europe and a little
Into. Shakespeare spoke of Paris
when 'suggesting in "Hamlet"
that a man is judged by the way
he dresses,
START OF RUFF
Catherine de Medici of France
launched the famous "eollerette"
Or pleated white ruff worn around
the throat. Jealous courtesans
suggested that her dressmaker
made it because she had an ugly
neck and wanted to hide the
wrinkles. But the fad swept the
continent and England, as did the
short skirt several centuries later.
Men followed suit because Henry
VIII had a scar on his chin he
wanted to hide. The ruff reach-
ed such an exaggerated size that
it became impossible to raise a
spoon to the mouth. That brought
the long -handled spoon into be-
ing.
FRENCH NCH DOLLS CARRIED
FASHIONS
Although this collar is now
called the "Mary Stuart" in its
modern form, the history of fash-
ion says that Henry VIII's .three
chins gave his French couturier
the inspiration for slashing the
ruff down the front.
fn spring and autumn, French
dolls carried Paris fashions to all
European courts. La Grande
Pandora displayed robes suitable
for balls and receptions; La
Petite Pandora lingerie and
gowns suitable for intimate par-
ties or suppers whose modern
counterpart is the "housecoat."
It was thus that Queen Eliza-
beth several centuries ago chose
a magnificent gown upon which
was 6,000 yards of hand -made
lace. It was a crinoline so large
tate Queen could not pass through
an ordinary door.

Weeping Statue
In the ruins of Arbroath Ale•
hey, in Scotland, is the headless
statue of a Scottish Icing, and at
his feet lies a lion similarly de-
faced.
'phis is William the First. called
William the :Lion. He founded the
abbey in memory of his friend,
'Phomas Becket. Here the king
was buried, and during the Re-
formation his statue and that of
the lion were beheaded,
It is a strange fact that, if the
weather is going to be wet, the
stone over the region of the
king's heart always becotnes
shiny and moist, and sometiilies
water actually trickles down.
That is why it is called "The
Weeping Statue."
