.AUCTION BLOCK" A SERIES
OF THRILLING SCENES

The story of Rex Beach's greatest
picture, "The Auction Block" which
is to be shown at the Princess Sunday
is the life history Of beautiful girl
who is raised by her parents for the
specific purpose of being placed for
sale to the highest bidder in the mat
rimonial market.
In due course of time Lorelei meets
the dissolute SON of a millionaire and
in accordance with the family plan,
marries him. 1t so happens, however,
that the young man is not as wealthy
as was first supposed; and when Lor-
elei learns this and he finds that ne
has been duped, they go their sepa-
rate ways, Lorelei becoming queen OF
the night world in which she lives.
Things go from bad to worse, the
situation as it develops, involving the
brother, who has now become black
mailer of the lowest order, member OF
an underworld gang; Jarvis Harmon,
steel magnate, with reputation for
unscrupulousness; daughter OF one
of the mill workmen, who is seeking
revenge on Harmon, and Loreleis
husband. All of these elements con-
spire to compromise Lorelei and brings
her to an awakening about the slough
of dispond into which she has fallen.
With the awakening comes the de-
sire to help her young husband, who
is now also at the lowest depths OF
dispair.
At last Lorelei can stand it no long
er, and she leaves him. This is the
one thing needed to bring him to his
senses, and he sets himself to work
for but one thing, to win her love
From this situation develops an end.

When they went into a basement

a young man with shock of black

as. if by using his strength, he could
make his music heard above the din of
voices and dishes.

CLAUDE BECKLEY ARRANGES
SURPRISE FOR RUTH AND
BRYAN

CHAPTER LVII
By the time they reached home,
Ruth had made up her mind what to
do. Had it not been for Claude Becky
joining them, she would have. said
something about "her money" and
then have been sorry afterward, She
was grateful she had not mentioned
it, That wos the one thing she never
must do if she and Bryan were to live
happily, Suppose he had spent it for
Mollie Kingg 1t he hadn't had it, he
might have run in debt again, might
have borrowed it from that man Clark
So when they were getting ready for
bed she remarked.
4 wish you'd ask me to lunch the
next time you ask Miss King. II not
interrupt if you talk business, and
would so enjoy it,"

time, - Brian answered, Modified by
Ruth S tone and the thought that it was
only her (Ruth 's) desire to be with
him that had made her act 40 she had
on the roof, She was jealous.
Yet Brian Hackett knew he had done
something that he had no right to do;
and, as a person who is in the wrong
invariably does, he was cross and un-
reasonable both that night and the
next morning
"Shall you come home, Brian, or
shall l meet you somewhereV Ruth
asked, 81 might come down to the of
flee, then you would not have to wait
"Oh, | don Z care what you dol

"I think il win be nice to go.n
"0h, III 90 all right only you II
be disappointed. What time will you
come downY"
"IM be there by six thirty"
All day Ruth thought of Brian and
Mollie King. What right had Brian to
object to her working, then take what
she earned and spend it on another wo-
mani She would have talk with him
not mentioning Mollie. She would pay
all the expenses Of the flat, and that
would give him his money to do with
as he pleased
! The rent was due the next day, sc
She took part of her noon hour anc
visited the real estate office and paiC

he asked about it she would have

to have him use her money for Molhe

really what hurt Ruth more than tn,
fact that Brian was with Mollie. Tha
Brian, her husband, could bring him
self to be unfaithful, and to demeai
himself by doing as he had, hurt. Ye
Ruth in her thoughts gave him all th
benefit Of the doubt. She never woul'
believe him unfaithful until she kney
beyond all quibble that he had gon
