| ted to miss one with the hairdresser

| dozen and one other beauty specialists
who form as important an adjunct to
the stage woman's career as to that OF
the woman Of fashion. All this was a
vital part Of that plan to which the
mother had devoted herself. No race
horse on the eve Of a Derby was
| grOomed more carefully than this bud
ding woman. In preparing her for
masculine conquest the entire family
took a hand. Her prospects, her ac-
tons, her triumphs, were the main
topic of conversation; all other inter
ests were subordinated to tire matri-
monial quest upon which she had en-
barked, and the three conspirators
| lived in a constant state Of eager ex-
pectation over Lorelei's fortunes.
Mother and daughter were lettering
over a midday breakfast, and LOrelei
according to custom, was recounting
the incidents of the previous evening.
"It's too bad you quarreled with Mr.
Wharton" Mrs. knight commented,

all those young millionaires."
''Bob is an alcoholic. He's no good,
so Mr. Merkle said"
Jim, who was immersed in the morn
| ing paper, spoke from his chair near
| the window
"Why don't You go after Merkle him
self, sis? Easy picking, these bank
ers.''
Jim also had come home in the still
hours Of the night before and was now
resting preparatory to his daily battle
with the world. Just how the struggle
went or where it was waged the others
knew not at all.
His mother shook her head. 'Those
old men are all alike. Mr.. Harmon
will never marry Lilas."
"Is that SOP" James abandoned his
reading. "The older they are, the
softer they get. Take it from me, on
| the word of volunteer fireman, Lilas
will cash in on him quicker than you
| think. I know"

There was q swish Of garments, a
musical laugh, and Adoree Demorest
was between them.
"I'm madly jealous, Senior Roberto, I"
she exclaimed. "Come, you must dance
once more with me. Well finish this.
What?" She swayed toward him in
sympathy with the music, swapping her
fingers and humming the words of the
song.

about him and forced him into motion.
AS she danced away she signaled over
her shoulder to Lorelei, who made
haste to seek the cloakroom.
When she emerged John Merkle was
waiting in the hall. A shout of laugh
ter echoed from the banquet hall, and
she started.

CHAPTER IV-Continued.

"Why don't you ask Miss Demorest?
She came with you"
Wharton sighed hopelessly. "Some-
thing queer about that Jane. D'you
know what made us late? She went
to mass on the way down."
Mass? At what hour?
"It was a special midnight service
conducted for actors. I sat in the taxi
and waited. 1t did me lot of good"
Some time later Merllle returned to
find Bob still animatedly talking;
catching Lorelei's eye, he signified a
desire to speak with her, but she
found it difficult to escape from the
intoxicated young man at her side. At
last, however, she succeeded, and
Joined her supper companion at the
farther edge of the fountain, where the
tireless cupids still poured water from
the cornucopias.
Merkle was watching his friends

teered. ''You heard what his father

would be different, but he's no sucker"
"How Is Lilas going to get hers?"
insisted Lorelei.
"Wait and see." James returned to
| his paper
"She'll never marry him. She hates
him"
Jim laughed, and his sister broke out
irritably:

she asked "What is your share?"
The young man laughed little I'M

The girls next words, however, left

Her lip curled; mother and son started
at the bitterness Of the tone. ugh!
What a mess you've made Of things.
Two years ago we were decent, and
now Lorelei's voice broke; her
eyes filmed over with tears. 'I'd give

Greater part of last evenings meet
ing Of the Moline board of education
was given over to a discussion of
illness among pupils, proper temper
allure of school rooms, and of a COM
munication from the father of a girl
in the kindergarten. complaining that
his child contracted cold because
/ the windows were allowed to remain
open too long during recess.
| L. A. Mahoney, superintendent of
| schools, told members of the board
( that temperature Of school room

4 haustive test of three years he had
/ found that there was less illness
among the pupils where the rooms
were kept comparatively cool-with
/ the thermostats set at 6S-and that
attendance was best in the school
| where the test was made at that tenn
perature.
i Some of the board members, in
considering the complaint that was
read, expressed the opinion that GER

was authorized to investigate the com
