The world, especially the fsmi-
nine world, will never quite get
used to the way that the baby-faced
woman wins the admiration OF cer-
tain types Of strone.minded men.
When q queenly, magnificent beauty
like Diana Of Poitiers captivates q
king or two you can't wonder, but
when o little baby-faced. doll-faced
creature. like Louise de Querouaiiies
gains first place among the fayorites
OF Charles IL Of England. who made
her Duchess Of Portsmouth, then
you can hardly wonder that women,
and men. too. feel surprised.
It was Evelyn who wrote:
That baby face Of thine ana those
. black eyes
Methinks should ne'er q hero's love
surprise"
she was a simple. faced
creature, with an infantile, high
forehead. big eyebrows and curly
hair. Her disposition was as baby
ish as her looks and It was through
tears OF jealouy. affectations of
sickness and real caprice that she
wound herself around the heart of
the Stuart king. and managed to
hold her position as lady of the bed
chamber to the queen when she was
openly ensnaring the tickle king
with her babyish charms and kit
tenish fascination.
What are the qualifications of the
baby face1
Wen, first perhaps you look at the
mouth. which must be small and
round and rosy, the lips pouting,
giving the face q look of childliks
wilfulness and gentleness The
eyes are round and seem large in
comparison to the other features
while the lashes are long and up
turned as in childhood. The nose
of course, is small. preferably quite
short. There is no need for classic
regularity or Grecian molding in
the baby-face nose. The eyes are
far apart and the brow is without
wrinkles.
The actual shape of the face and
contour of the forehead do much "a
create the baby face. In babyhood

SYNOPSIS of Chapters II and 72:
Lila seeks the companionship OF
her child as protection against the
PROPOSALS of Muncaster. She admits
she cares for Alex, and deplores her
marriage.
Juliet calls in her car for Doris
and, at the direction of Stewart
takes her to witness the laying oil
the cornerstone for her new home
On returneng home, she receives
wire from her mother, announcing
that she Is coming north with Alex
to pay a long visit.
Mrs. McKim arrived one evening
in time for dinner, escorted by Alex.
Doris was too excited to eat, bur
her mother did full justice to the
meal and she regaled the Durands
with "reminiscences OF her husband
and her married life.
II was very gratifying to her to
have a fresh audience; every resi-
dent of her home town had long
since been taken into her full con-
While she still held the attention
of the polite Durands. Alex drew
Doris aside.
"When can see Lila?" he asked.
Doris hesitated.
"rm not sure that she wants to
see you," she answered. "She seems
to be afraid of you"
Muncaster's face was grim, every
touch of youth temporarily wiped
out.
"She must see me-" he declared.
shes not a child to quibble."
"But she is," insisted Doris, feel
ing somehow immeasurably older
than Lila. you must be very pa
tient with her, Alex. You've never
met her mother, have you?"
He shook his head absently.
well, when you do, you will un-
derstand Lila better" declared Doris
wisely.
Muncaster had not long 20 wait
before he met Mrs. Stevenson. While
they were lingering over coffee
and Mrs. McKim's tales of her girl
hood triumphs-in the library, the
maid announced Mrs. Stevenson and
Mrs. Demarest.
"Lethe, how nice of you," said
Margaret as she rose to greet the
charming widow, who made her
usual graceful and impressive en-
trance, heralded by a wave of sub
tie fragrance. She wore a sumptu-
Gus evening gown with a cloak OF
velvet and fur thrown across her
white shoulders. Lila lowered like
a pale wrath in lilac in the wake
of her gorgeous mother.
The presentations were formal.
especially as Mrs. McKim, at the
mention of Mrs. Stevenson's name
became icy. She cast significant
glance at Doris and lapsed into
tight-1ipped silence. AT sight OF
Alex Lila's cheeks had flushed to a
wild rose glow, and the hand of
greeting which she extended shook
absurdly.
But Mrs. Stevenson. removed from
sensitiveness by her own assurance
chatted on urbanely.

McKim! I'm sure Doris will I'm.
