her face as though it were chal-

that she had no opinion and yet

CHAPTER XVI
A Drive in the Rain

w ARRIET'S mind was full of
IL jumbled thoughts as she sto ii
in the shadow of one of the
tain buildings waiting for the
downpour of rain to slacken. A
shower late that afternoon had set
tied into a steady rain, which looked
as if it would continue through the
like herself standing in doorways
hoping against. hope that the, rain
might let up just long enough for
them to make a dash for home.
1t was three long blocks to the
subway and Harriet hated to ruin
the only hat she had. But she was
eager to get home where she could
collect her thoughts and try to de-
eide what. to do. The conversation
noon together with Mr.. Harmon's
talk had made her waver for, the
first time from the course she hac
set for herself. If by turning herself
over to the police she could help
Barry's case. that was the thing to
stay where she was, to go on with
the thing she had undertaken. In
the face of the evidence against
Barry things looked very hopeless,
but at any time she might stumble
on clue.
Impatiently she looked up at the
black sky, and then suddenly deter
mined to make a dash for 1t. Wrap
ping a newspaper over her head. she
ventured out of her shelter and be-
gan to fly along the slippery street.
Suddenly she heard her name spoken
and, turning. saw taXicab drawing
up to the curb nearby. The door
opened and Charley Harmon leaped
to the pavement. Before she knew
what was happening he had taken
her arm and was helping her into
the car. The door slammed behind
them and the car moved off into the
driving rain almost before Harriet
knew what had happened.
This is very kind of you, Mr..
Harmon" she began, "if you'll just
take me to the subway. I'N be all
right" The dash in the rain had
for the moment broken down her re-

would advise you to keep
away from the shampoos having
oil or grease Of any kind in them.
Use ivory soap on your hair;
in the water put about ten drops
of househ old ammonia. In the
rinsing water a tablespoonful of
lemon juice to two or three quarts
of tepid water, the last rinsing
before the final cold rinse. Trim
the ends of your hair evenly,
once a month. Corn meal is very
good to absorb the oil as dry
shampoo. Sprinkle meal through
the hair and rub the scalp well,
then brush well, lastly, use
fine comb to get the meal out.
This is tedious occupation as
it takes a great length of time
to get the meal out But it
really absorbs the grease and
may be worth trying. Sun your
hair, and let it have air. Try
not to wash 1t any more than
every six weeks. Warm towels
rubbed through the hair will
cleanse 1t and rid it of grease.
Use several in succession. Air
and sunlight certainly help this
condition.
