"That Is all, then, up to 4he preseh;?
Have you anything: else In view?"
"That's all I've absolutely ascer
tained at present. As for what I'm Ru
ing to do" a Blif-ht smile curled I'liun
mer's lips "well, I shall see. I've a
thing or rwo In my mind."
Hewitt smiled Blinhtly himself; ho
recognized I'lummrr's touch of profes
sional Jealousy. "Very well," he s;iid,
rising, "I'll make an Inquiry or UVo
for myself nt once. I'erhnps, Mr. Neal.
you'll allow one ot your clerks to show
me the banks In their reguhir order
at which Laker called yesterday. I
think I'll ie-dn at the beginning."
Mr. Neal offered to .place at Hewitt's
disposal anything or anybody the bank
contained, and the conference broke up.
As Hewitt, with the clerk, oatue
through the rooms separating Mr.
Neal'B sanctum from the outer ofilce
he fancied he saw the two veiled wo
men leaving by a Bide door.
The first bank was quite close to
Uddle, Neal & Llddle. There the cash

before remembered notMng In particu
lar about 'the interview. .Many other
walk-clerics had called during the
morning, as they did every morning,
and the only circumstances of the visit
that he could say anything definite
ebout were those recorded In figures In
the book.". He did not knoW Laker's
name till Tlummer had mentioned It In
making inquiries on the previous after
noon. As fur as he coulJ remember,
Laker behaved much as usual, though
really he did not notice much; he
looked chletly at the, bills. He de
scribed Laker in a way that corre
sponded with the phutograph that
Hewitt had borrowed from the bank
a young man with a brown" mustache
and ordinary looking, fairly regular
face, dressing much as other clerks
dressed tall hat, .black cutaway coat
andt so on. The numbers of th notes
handed over had already been given to
Inspector Tlummer, and these Hewitt
did not trouble about.
The next bank Was In Cornhlll. and
here the cashier was a personal friend
of Lakef s at any rate, an acquaint
anceand he remembered a little more.
Laker's manner had been quite as
usual, he said; certainly he did not
seem preocoupled or excited In his man
tier. He spoke' for a moment or two
of being on the river on Sunday, and
so on and left In his usual way.
"Can you remember everything he
Bald?" Hewitt asked. "If you can tell
me, I BWnuld like to know exactly what
he did and said to the smallest par
ticular." "Well, he saw me at a little distance
off I was behind there, nt one of the
desks and raised his hand to me and
said: 'How d'ye do? I came across
and took his hills and dealt with them
In the usual way. He had a new um
brella lying on the counter rather a
handsome umbrella and I made a re
mark abost the handle. He took It
up to show me, and told me It was a
present he had Just received from a
friend. It was a gorse root handle
with two fllver bands, one with his
monogram, C. W. L. I said It was a
Very nice handle, and asked him
whether it was fine in his district on
Sunday. He said he had been up the
Tlver, and It; was very flrfe there. And
I think that -was all."
"Thank you. Now about this tim
brella. Did he carry It rolled?'! Can
you describe It In detail?"
. "Well, I've told you about the handle,
end the rer was much as usual, I
think; It wasn't rolled Just flapping
loosely, you know. It was rather an
odd-shaped handle, though. I'll try
and sketch It if you like, as well as I can
remember." He did so, and Hewitt
saw in the result rough indications of a
gnarled crook, with one sliver band
near the end, and another, with the
monogram,, a few Inches down the
handle. Hewitt put the sketch In his
pocket and bade the cashier gqod day.
At the next bank the story was the

same as at the first there was nothing
remembered but the usual routine.
Hewitt and the clerk turned down a
narrow paved court and turned Into
Lombard street for the next visit. The
bank that of llulier, Clayton, Ladds
H Co. was just tit the corner, at the
end of the court, and the Imposing
stone entrance porch was being made
longer and more Imposing still, the way
ijrlmr 11 1 in 1 blocked by ladders and
scaffold pules. Here there was only
the usual tale, nml eo on through the
whole walk. The cashiers knew Laker
only by sight, and that not always very
distinctly. The calls of walk clerks
were such matters of routine that little
note was taken .of the persons of the
c!"i'U'i tl'emielves. who were called by
the names of their linns, if they were
called by any names at all. Laker had
behaved much fi usual, no far as the
cashiers could remember; and when
finally the llastern Consolidated was
l"ft behind, nothing more had been
learned than the chat about Laker's
new umbrella.
Hewitt hail taken leave of Mr. Neal's
clerk, and was stepping Into a hansom,
when he notice a veiled woman. In
widow's Weeds, hailing another a little
way behind. He recognized the figure
again, and said to the driver: "lM'lvo
first to Kilmer's Tourist Ollice, but
keep your eye on that cab behind, and
tell me presently If It In following us."
Tile ca'.'.man drove off, and, after
pacing one or two turnings, opened the
lid above Hewitt's head and said:
"That there other keb Is a-follerln' us,
sir. an' keeping about even distance all
altin-j."
"All right that's what I wanted to
know. Kilmer's now."
At Palmer's the clerk who had at
tended to Laker remembered him very
well, and described him. Ho also re
membered the wallet, and thought he
remembered the umbrella was prac
tically sure of It. in tact, upon reflec
tion. Ho had no record of the name
given, but remembered It distinctly to
be Laker. An a matter of fact, names
were never asked In such a transaction,
but in this case LUter appeared to be
Ignorant of the usual procedure, as
well as in a great hurry, and asked for
the ticket and gave his name all In one
breath, probably assuming that the
nam? would be required.
Hewitt got back to his cab. and start
ed for Charing Cross. The cab
man once more lifted the lid and in
formed him that the hansom with the
veiled woman in it was again follow
ing, having waited while Hewitt visited
Palmer's At Charing Cross Hewitt
discharged his cab and walkpd straight
to the lost property ottlee. The man In
charge knew him very well, for his
business had carried him there fre
quently before.
' I fancy an umbrella was lost In the
station yesterday," Hewitt said. "It
was a new umbrella, silk, with a
gnarled gorse-root handle and two sil
ver bands, something like this sketch.
There was a monogram on the lower
band C. W. L. were the letters. Has
It been brought here?"
"There was two or three yesterday,"
the man said. "Let's see." Ho took
the sketch and retired to the corner
of his room. "Oh yes here It Is, I
think. Isn't this It? Do you claim it?"
"Well, not exactly that, but I think
I'll take a look at It if you'll let me.
P.y the way, I see It's rolled up. Was
ir found like that?"
"No; the chap rolled It up that found
It porter he wan. It's a fad of his,

"Yes everybody has his little fad,

"Yes, Just there, almost opposite this

"About 2 o'clock?"
"Ah, about that time, fnore or less."
Hewitt took the umbrella up, un
fastened the band and shook the silk
out loose. Then he opened it, and as
he did so a small scrap of paper fell
from Inside It. Hewitt pounced on It
like lightning. Then, after examining
the umbrella thoroughly, Inside and
out, he handed It . back to the man,
who had observed the Incident of the
scrap of paper.. "That will do, thanks,"
he said. "I only wanted to tuke a peep
at It Just a small matter connected
with a little case of mine. Good morn
ing." He turned suddenly and saw, gazing
at him with a terrified expression from
a door behind, tho fnce of the woman
who had followed him In tho cab. The
veil was lifted, and he caught but a
mere glance of tho Xace ere It was
suddenly withdrawn. He stood for a
moment to allow the woman time for
retreat, and then left tho station and
walked toward his ollice, close by.
Scarcely thirty yards olong the
Strand he met I'lummor. "I'm going
to make some more close Inquiries all
down the line as far as Dover," he
said. "They wire from Calais that
they have no duo an yet, and I mean
to make quite sure, If 1 can. that I.aker
hasn't quietly slipped off the line some
where between here ami Dover. There's
one very peculiar thing," Mummer
added, confidentially. "Did you see the
two women who were waiting to see a
member of the firm of Kiddle, Neal &
Liddles?"
"Yes. Laker's mother and his fiancee,
I was told."
"That's right. Well, do you know,
that girl Shaw, her name Is has been
shadowing me ever Plnce I left tho
bank? Of course, I stopped It from the
beginning these amuteurs don't know
how to follow anybody and, as a mat
ter of fact, she's Just Inside that Jewel
er's shop door behind me now, pretend
ing to look at tho. things In the window.
Hut It's odd. Hn't It?"
"Well," Hewitt replied, "of course It's
not a thing to bo neglected. If you'll
look very carefully nt the corner of
Vllllers street, without appearing to
stare, I think you will possibly observe
some signs of Laker's mother. She's
shadowing me."

HOW TO (IROW THIN.
Some Instructions for Those Who Think
I hey Are Too stout.
It is all very well to laugh at the ab
surdity of sighing over growing old,
but there are very few women who are
sufficiently philosophical not tube n lit
tle chagrined at the advance of years
showing Itself plainly in face or figure.
There would seem to be two distinct
types of American women those who
grow stout as they grow older, and
those who grow thin. It is all very well
to say that the face looks better when
It Is plump than when it is thin, says
Harper's Uazaar, but every pound of
additional avoirdupois certainly adds to
a woman's age In appearance, at least,
while the woman who coes not grow
stout rarely changes much In appear
ance from 35 to 50. There are many
physical reasons whiMi Induce added
flesh, and we are told tnat the figure
settles as one grows older; but it Is this
very settling that all women are anx
ious to avoid, and there is really no
necessity for It whatever.
Steady banting always has the de
sired result in so far as the reducing of
flesh Is concerned; but there are other
results far from satisfactory which are
apt to accompany it, and very often 111
health and irritable nerves are the out
come of trying to grow thin. The avoid
ing of starchy food Is a simple matter,
and by not eating potatoes nnd bread
very often an astonishing difference in
veight is soon perceived. Certain salts,
which, however, should never be taken
except under tho orders of one's physi
cian, will sometimes start a disposition
to lose flesh, Vrhleh, If followed with
giving up potatoes and bread, will work
marvelous results.
Indolence, one of the prcatest factors
in increasing weight, lies within the
power of every woman to correct. It Is
so much the fashion now to take exer
cise that there Is no excuse for being
lazy. It is Impossible for some women to
walk a great deal, but a certain nmount
of regular exercise will benefit even
the most delicate. Sitting Invariably
produces fat, and fat just where one
does not want It about the stomach
and hips. When one begins to lose
flesh and this can be ascertained by
being weighed every week a little
massage will be found a great help. The
masseuse, If she understands her busi
ness, will soon be able to tell where the
superfluous flesh Is, and will direct her
energies to the particular place or
places. Of course, massage Is an ex
pensive luxury, but H Is not a thing
that needs to be continued, nnd a few
hours will often word a wondrous
change. For Instance, one hour three
times a week for a fortnight has been
known to reduce the size of the waist
half an inch. HtandlnK erect With the
hands pressed well down on the hips,
and then, with the hands still kept on
the hips, bending the . body forward,
backward and sideways several times,
twice a day, will also work olt occumu
lafed fat about the hips and stomach.
But this exercise must be conscientious
ly perservered In.
TREES THAT GIVE MILK.
Recently Discovered In South America
,hy a Noted Traveler.
Dr. Spruce, the renowned South
American traveler, mentions a tree, a
member of the dogbane family, the
Juice of which Is used as milk. On the
bark being wounded the milk flows
abundantly, and Is of the consistency
of cow's milk, and of the purest white
and sweet to the taste. The Indian
mode of taking It is to apply the mouth
directly to the wound, and thus re
ceive the milk as It flows. Dr. Spruce
says he has often partaken of It with
out experiencing any ill effects.
In Guiana the natives employ the
milk from a tree belonging to the same
family as the last named; In the ver
nacular, it Is known as hyahya, and to
botanists as Tabernaemontana utllis
(so named after Jacobus Theodorus
Tabernaemontanus, a German physi
cian and botanist). The milk has the
same flavor as sweet cow's milk, but Is
rather sticky, on account of Its con
taining some caoutchouc.
In I'ara a lofty tree, belonging to the
star apple family, attaining a height
of 100 feet, is used In a similar manner
to the others mentioned. ' Incisions are
made In the bark, and the milky juice
flows out copiously about the consist
ence of cream, and If It were not for
its taste,' which Is somewhat peculiar,
could hardly be distinguished from it.

From the Detroit Tribune.
Tey sat In the twilight and spoke softly.
"Edward," she observed, "you seem to
have' grown more Introspective."
He laughed, but his laugh gave no token
of that which he was about to say.
"Yes," he replied, "Yes, my darling.
Since you have been doing your own cook
ing, my attention has been mfcch attracted
In that direction."
