Helen's gratitude for Mr.. Miners

should deliberately make a joke oi
her embarrassment
She could only 1llince over her
food. The lump in her throat, made
swallowing impossible. Fortunately,
the conversation driited back to the
accident. And the Miners, rellears-
ing every detail, did not notice her
constraint.
After dinner, Helen brought out a
precious bottle of cordial. 1t was
one Of the times when a stimulant
was needed-anything that would
divert attention from her still
poignant self-consciousness.
Mrs. Miner, still runstrung from
their ordeal, made All early move
for departure. 1t was not quite 10
when she suggested phoning for a
taxi.
T don't want to 90 back in that
subway" with 5shudder. "lll never
feel safe in it again"
When a little later the taxi was
announced, Warren saw their guests
to the elevator, Helen having said
goodnight in the hall.
Swiftly taking refuge in her own
room, she closed the door.
She was sitting before her dress
ing table, slowly brushing her hair
and staring at her still flushed face
when Warren opened the door.
"Sulking, eh?'
She met his eyes in the mirror, her
own burning with Indignation.
"Sore at me for showing you up?
The only thing that saved that situa-
tion was telling the truth and max
ing joke Of it." Then with
snort. "a bacon and egg dietl Did
you think they'd fall for a spawned,
knock-kneed lie like that?"
"They might have still gazing
hostilely into the mirror, IF you
hadn't"
Huh, I saw her lamp that
platter. And the way you Eopped
around changing the napkins gave
the whole show away. Next time
don't be in such a blamed hurry to
snatch everything off the table. And
if you can't make your lies more
plausible-try telling the truth for a

Nelp Way to Curl Hair
Fine for Outdoor Girl

The silmerine method of curling the
hair is the proper thing before going mo-
toring. bathing or solfing, or indulging in
any outdoor sport or exercise. This will
not only give the hair the most beautiful
wavy and curly appearance imaginable, but
wind or heat will not take the curl out.
The eurIiness is quickly acquired and lasts
much longer than where waving tongs are
used. Besides. the hair will be bright and
lustrous. instead Of dull and dead looking.
When combed out it will be as nice and
fluffy as il it had just been shampooed.
Just get q bottle Of liquid silmerine at
any drug or department store. follow the
accompanying directions, and you will be
simply delighted with The result. This
product is, Of course, perfectly harmless
and there is nothing sticky, greasy or un-
pleasant about it.
