There was a vague disturbed feeling in my mind also that this dinner ‘with Dr. Pettit alone weas yery like the proverbial playing with ‘fire. I hastened to change the subject. “Everything looks very clean, here,” I said banally enough. “Yes, doesn’t it,” turned in kind, but there was amused expression in his eyes which told me that he had recognized my little se. ' At the Gate. His next remark startled me afresh. “Do you know whether one of the taxi drivers in Crest.

Mr. Underwood's flamboyant banter. | “You have not yet answered my question about the Crest Haven taxie drivers.” Dr. Pettit reminded me, and there was something in his tones, that compelled me to give him the information he asked. “I am sure any of the taxi com- panies could furnish you a driver back,” I said, ! “Thank you. And will you tell me the best company?” l “The Haven Taxl company.” “Thank you again, If you will ex- cuse me for a few moments I will telephone out there, tell them to meet us, and then take me back to the city.” § He rose and went to the telephone, | leaving me in the words' of the old style novelists a ‘“prey to mingled emotians.” Gratitude to Dr. Pettit for his soli- citous care of me was tempered by dismay at.the thought of what the Crest Haven and Marvin gossips would say when they should know of my arrival at midnight in the com- pany of a stranger. And what Dicky’s mather would say when I arrived home without any husband! I could but faintly imagine her rage! But there seemed no prospect of my seeing Dicky. ‘Where he had gone when he had flung himself away from the balcony in Madison Square Garden when he saw Dr. Pettit seated beside me I had no idea. It was therefore with the greatest surprise, mot unmixed with appre- hension, that when our very excellent meal had been concluded, and we. having taken a.taxicab to the Penn- sylvania station, came toward theh ®ates leading to the Lonk Island trains 1 caught . sight of Dicky standing by the guard, scrutinizing every one that passed.

He also played the male lead—after a fervent plea with Mr. Fox, who favors a division of labor ih his producing forces.* Mr. Fox first learmed of his new director's interition to” piay his own lead when the cast was submitted for his approval. He noticed the space opposite ‘“The Blue Streak™ was not filled in. E \ ¢ “Can’t you find a leadlng man?" asked the big producer. “Oh, that’s me,” smiled Mr., Nigh. Mr. Fox demurred.

And therein lies the secret of “Bill"” Nigh's film magic. Since Willlam Nigh received his sheepskin from the University of Cali- fornia and began writing plays and film dramas this has been his motto: “Hitting a man on the head with a brick isn’t drama.” CRISIS OF WOMAN'S LIFE Taking Lydia E.

One is love; another is money, es- pecially in relation to its investment. Many people, who are intelligent enough to make money and self con- trolled enough to save it, are neither :J\intelligenrt or'self' controlied ‘in: what ‘| they expect that money to do. They:don’t seem to have an. idea of using a two-and-two-makes-four- and-can’t-possibly-make-five brand of common sense on this subject. They Hope So Hard That They Don’t Reason, I suppose they hope so hard that hope completely dominates reason. For instance, we were epeaking of someone who is paying for his house by paying twenty-five dollars to the co-operative bank monthly. In ten years he will own his house. “Ther: said the Authorman's Wite, ow why couldn't you have done that with the little house we bought. We get thirty dollars rent and we could turn twenty-five right in. Why, just think, we pay a hun- dred ahd twenty-five dollars a year on qur mortgage and that doesn’t re- duce it one bit. I always felt there was some better way but you would go.to that bank.” * He Thought It Useless to Explain. The Authorman started to speak, then gave her a look’in ‘which in- credulity, anger and enforced toler- ance were blended, shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. It was the Cynic who came to his rescue and explained that the man who was paying for his house was paying tax rates, water rates and re- palrs, beside the co-operative pay- ment; that to do as he was doing she would have to turn over most of e (Creme ' Jokalon ROSEATED B comj hlemn beauany Many a hollow-cheeked, wrinkled, aged- looking woman has “come back” and made herself look most beautiful. youthfu! and chatming In from two to thi weeks' time, after she had given up all hoj of ever regaining her girlish attractivene: by means of this wonderful simple metho Merely wash your face In warm water at night and rub in a teaspoonful or two of eme Tokalon Roseated. which you can ob= tain from the drugg In the. morning wash the face with cold and rub in more cream. ¢ day watch how the old, hardened coarse, rough skin be comes new, fresh saft and youthful-lool ing, all due to simple osmosis of the akin, produced by warm water and roseated cream.
