Sally READ THIS FIRST: Sally Jerome, pretty and clever, is the mainstay of her family in the absence of her father, who does not live with her mother. Mrs. Jerome enjoys poor health, so Sally does the house work mornings and office work for Mr. Peevey down town afternoons. Her brother, Beau, and sister, Millie, give little towards the support of the home, and the finan- cial burden falls on Sally. In the flat below the Jerome: lives Ted Sloam, who wants Sally to | marry him and keep on working. | But the only man who interests her is John Nye, whose real estate office is across the hall from Mr. | Peevey's. Millie is Nye's secretary, and he is infatuated with her. She delights in making him jealous with | her flirtations, particularly one that she is carrying on with a bond salesman named Davidson. David- son secretly admires Sally, who will | have nothing to do with him. ‘ Beau passes some bad checks and “borrows” some money from the | bank where he works, and Sally gets the money to pay these debts of dishonor from Mr. Peevey. Beau | elopes with his giti, Mabel, and | brings her home to live. He buys her a fur coat and a second-hand | car, but pays Sally no board, and | she {s frantic with money worries. Then Millia goes to the hospital for | an appendicitis operation, and while she is there Sally does her work in John Nye's office. Later, when Mr. Peevey retires from business, he of- fers her a permanent position. But Sally refuses it, and goes into busi- | ness with her Aunt Emily Jerome, | who has given up school teaching to turn her country home into a wa; side inn. The business does not thrive, al- though the food is delicious and the place is beautiful and comfortable Tinally Aunt Emily hires a jaza | orchestra in one last efiort to make | her restaurant popular, although of jazz. But “The | ' a nearby roadhouse, takes away the business, and Aunt Em | and Sally are in des The family | all move in, to maz matters worse. When things look very black, John Nye comes out and offers Sally a | job with him, but Millie tells her he really came to see hersclf. Sally decides to stick to Aunt Em. She and Ted Sloan hit upon the idea of doing some exhibition dancing to see if that will draw the crowds. Sally is | a marvelous dancer. i NOW GO ON WITH THE CHAPTER XLVI Aunt Emily was just as straight laced as she was strong niinded. | And the chances are that she | rever would e allowed Sally to put on her dance that night if it had not been for Mrs. Jerome.

A case is cited of a boy aged 8 years, who had a severe eruption of the skin every time he was ex- posed to ultra-violet rays. This had occurred every gummer for four years. There are other cases in which the reaction involves changes in the blood which may be even more seri- ous than those that appear on the skin. Test Is Recommended.
