An Unfortunat: Allusion The gleam in his eyes was deceper now, and he tightened his clasp of my hand as if unconsciously. “Why do you limit me?” h *'queried. “You say ‘at Noel's age.’ «~Can you imagine me tamely relin- i~quishing my interest in a woman 1 * —loved—at any age, even so ad- .vanced a one as you evidently con- sider my present status?” I had brought it on myself, T re- flected, grimly, as Mr. Veritzen's eyes bore down into mine, with the «flaming spari r stronger. I “dropped my own lashes, and from under them sent a furtive glance in .Dicky’'s direction. As I feared, he was looking at us over Helena ““Brixton's shoulder, and though his face showed no emotion whatever, I actually felt the anger which I knew was pouring out of his heart ! “You haven't answered me,” Mr. Veritzen said softly, swinging me in the dance so that 1 no longer could see Dicky. s is | Triumph Over Jealousy GARRISON I tried to make my answer light and casual. “I cannot imagine you giving up anything you happened to fancy, from an old coin to a primitiv painting,” I retorted, carefully | bringing in two of his well-known | hobbies — “unless, of course, you | realized that it really belonged to someone else.” “You flatter me,” he said slowly, and there was derision in his tone. “I am a predatory person and I care [no~ whit for ownership, It I want |anything T get it fairly, it possible; {if not, I take it.

I had no wish to have him guess the seri- ousness with which Mr. Veritzen was investing our colloquy. “Sometimes he stands in the middle of the floor and announces to the world at lorge: ‘I'm a bad boy.

Never in all his short had he ever known quite such a fright. It was dreadful. Inside, he kept saying to himself “He's coming for me! He's coming for me! Oh, dear, what shall I do? He's coming for me!” And Impy really thought this was 0. Bear. He didn’t know that Buster didn’t see him; he didn’t know that Buster was fond of beechnuts. So it was quite natural for Impy to think that Buster was after him. He had been afraid when Buster was on the | ground, but it hadn't entered his head that Buster could climb. Reddy Fox couldn’t climb. Old Man Coyote couldn’t climb. This fellow looked 8o big and clumsy that climbing was the last thing he looked capable of Impy couldn't beligve ves. At last Buster reachcd the branch that Tmpy clinging to. Impy was quite a way out toward the énd. Buster began to shake that branch. Impy clung on for dear life. Buster shook harder than ever. He was trying to shake some nuts from ¢ tree, for even then he didn't see Impy. It seemed to Impy that he couldn’t hold on any longer. He was just about to let go and drop, and take his chances of getting hurt, when Buster stopped shaking. You see, Impy had moved and the minute he moved, Buster Bear saw him. “Well, well, well!” said Buster Bear away down in his throat. His voice was grumbly-rumbly. “Well, well, well, who might you I At first Impy couldn't find his tongue. Buster gave the branch an- other shake. “Tzll me,” he com manded, “who are you?” wa “It you please,” replied Impy in a | frightened sounding voice, a Chipmunk.” Only a what?” cried Buster Bear. “Only a Chipmunk, if you please,’ replied Impy, trying very hard to be polite. “I'm only “If you -said he “wh o did you 0ld Mother N me,” said Impy “I don’t believe said Bear in his deepest, most gr! rumbly voice.

Electricity, which has been the boon of the informed, has also been the bane of the credulous. From the earliest times, man has looked upon electricity, in its va- rious forms, as an agent which he |might use in the cure or the pre- vention of the numerous ailments to which the human body Is sub- Ject. Thus, in the folklore of many peo- ples, the wearing = of amber beads 3 recommended as a safeguard against disease, and the lode-stone was the forerunner of the rabbit's foot and ‘the horse-chestnut. The mysteries of electricity have always been utilized to exploit the uninformed. In the days when Edison first in- {vented his incandescent lamp, and | Morse the telegraph, the United States was afflicted with a vast variety of electrical quackeries. | Nickel-plated iron contraptions and awe-inspiring coils of wire . were sold for fancy prices as mar- velous electrical cures for every- thing from asthma to zoopsia. Despits the progress in the sei- ence and application of electricity clectrical quackery still thrives There are still so-called electric belts, electric rings and other de- vices through which charlatans and quacks mulct an unsuspecting pub- lic. Certain of the claims made for these electrical quackeries arc most ludicrous. Because, as Is well known, there is iron in the blood, they claim by means of magnets to jon-ize (whatever that may mean) the blood, and thereby cure the body of all its ills. The tragedy is, that many a suf- ferer loses precious time in which he might have gained substantial relief, if not a cure. FLAPPER FANNY SAYs: AEG. U. 3. PAT. OFF.

Miss Colt is shown (right) ] actress. ar the time she was graduated from New York, Oct. 1. (M—Amid the garages and jazz band rehearsal halls, of West Forty-seventh street there stands a building with gleam- ing white facade. It is the royal palace American stage, the Ethel more theater. It was here, in private dressing room suite made restful by its soft, blue decor, that we found Miss Bar- rymore on an afternoon just after rehearsals of “‘Scarlet Sister Mary.” This, we knew, was an important play for it not only compels Miss Barrymore, the first of her family ever to do such, to appear as a negro woman, but it also marked the debut of Ithel Barrymore Colt. This Miss Colt, too, was impor- tant, the ninth generation of the royal stage family taking, for the first time, her pluce as crown prin- cess. Interviewing Miss Barrymore is no task for a sensitive newspaper man. We had heard that she was not wholly in favor of her daugh- ter taking up a stage career, and we asked her if this were true. “I think your question an im- pertinent one,” she answered. “Why shouldn't she go on the stage? My family has always becn on the stage and I con- sider it the highest profession, just as I consider yours (the newspaper profession) the low- est.” Miss Barrymore always says ex- actly what she thinks. R “Ot course, I was a little sur- prised when Ethel came to me,” she continued, “and said she was going to play with me in ‘Scarlet Sister Mary!" “S8he had never said a word be- fere about it, and I had always in- ferred that she would take up mu- sic as a carcer as she is very tal- ented both as a singer and as a pianist. “Now that she has decided on the stage, I am glad. She belongs in the theater. I never tried to in- fluence her one way or another, I believe in allowing my children to choose their own careers. I want her to work. “I certainly wouldn't want her around with nothing to do but play bridge and tennis, or whatever it is that idle people do.” Miss Barrymore is who has never hesitated to talk right back to critics. There is a rumor that she bats more review- ers 4from her playhouse than she | allows to enter. | Knowing this, we'decided, to get | Ler opinion of her daughter an | actress before the critics had an | opportunity to state theirs. “I think my daughter is a fine actress, one of the finest," she answered. “I have seen her in dramatics at school and in rehearsals of the Julia Peter- kin play, and she is marvelous. She doesn't begin her carcer with any illusions about a life of ease and happiness in the theater. She has been with me too much, and she knows that she must work hard, terribly hard. She knows that she must always go on, that she can never stop for onc second as long as she is conscious enough to walk on stage. “She knows of the Barry- #pne actress what TI've gone through, how often I've played when I did not feel like it. I haven't had an understudy in elght years." “And suppose your daughter fol- lows Lionel and John into the movies. Would she desert the stage for talking pictures?” we asked. “The stage is her career, whore she belongs,” was the firm, almost belligerent, an- swer. “She will always be on the stage. Perhaps she may make a talking picture during a summer holiday, but that is all. “My daughter has had many of- fers to appear in pictures, but she has paid no attention to them. First comes the stage, and, then, too, she will continue her studies in music. After that, if she has the time, she may play in a picture. But, only the stage is impor- tant now DOG ALLOWED IN JAIL braska City, Neb., (UP)—Clar- cnce Hike, 18, who is in the city | jaii on a liquor charge, will not be deprived of the company of his? faithiful dog.

The remains of the feast on cheeks and chins told the guilty tale. A confercnce with the neighbor revealed the exact cxtent of the damage. Confronted with their deeds the young: sinners ¢miled, remempbering the frast, and mother knew that this was no time for moral indigna- tion. “How would you like it,” she be- gan, “ if someone went into our kitchen and took our cookies and candy and you came home and tound they were all gone? You wouldn't like that, would you?” A dawning scriousness on their faces and grave shaking of heads. “If someone took away some- thing that belonged to you, you would want them to give it back, Reported Engaged Princess Juliana of Holla ported to be engaged to Prince Sig- ward, son of Crown Prince Gustav Adolf of Sweden, wouldn't you?” Vigorous nodding. “But you can't give back the cookies and (caramels, can you, be- cause you've eaten them?" Again looks of pleasure, quickly erased with becoming gravity. “So L think,” mother finished, “that you'll have to pay for the things you took.” “Yes, but we haven't any money. We've spent our allowances.” “Oh, yes, you have, in your banks. You had better get them right away.” The banks were duly brought forth and opened. Mother said that 2% cents from each would repair the damago. They counted out the nickels and. pennies, and very sober now at the thought of parting with some of their very own money, they went next door and made due restitu- tion. There were no formal words of apology or repentance but the chil- dren understood very well the les« son they had been taught.
