Still, 1t was the man who'd broken the match off: he was no fortune hunter; perhaps scarlati was a decent sort.

Realizing that my mission was delicate, and that 1t might not be easy to see Scariati, I decided to i'm personate one of the employees Of the concert agency which dealt with Scar lati's affairs, Thus, still had some sort of status when the reception clerk informed me that MT.

 It was not too late to catch the morning train, and since there was no point in reaching Brussels in the middle of the night, waited for the evening mail.

CLEANSING THE FACE
BY DR. CLIFFORD c. ROBINSON

CLEANSING THE FACE
 A clean face is q health factor of no small importance. Just how the face governs health conditions is a question of great importance to both men and women.
 The stimulation and free circulation in the skin of the face should always be considered. Without freely moving supply of blood in the small arteries and capillaries, the face will become thin. sallow and decorated with blotchss and pimples. To avoid this condition, and always present the best appesrance we possibly can, is the health factor desired.
 Keep the face clean as possible at all times. Never go all day without carefully cleansing the fact at least twice. Oftener is better. If dust, dirt and germs have had good chance to get acquainted with your features, re- move them as quickly as you can. Cold water Is the best face wash. It has the tonal properties which not only give strength and fexibility to the elastic fibers of the skin but it will also keep back and delay longer than any other fancy preparation, the appearance of wrinkles.
 or course, warm water and soap must be used to cleanse at time, but the warm face bath is not to be class ed with the cold as skin tonic.
 The fact is a health mirror. The physician can often tell your real condition by glance at your face. If any outbreak or eruption occurs on the skin of your face be careful that you do not come in contact with other members of the family through towel contract, bed clothes or touch- ing face or hands, Poisonous effects that are far-reaehing have been communicated through facial con- animation.

THE POISONED GIRL BeCin Here Today

A novelist, seeking nocturnal. ad. venture, waits in Grosvenor Square, London. Perceiving a silent figure in white standing motionless against a railing he investigates. He finds a girl in evening dress and beside her a man. The man declares he is a passerby who wonders what is wrong with the girl.
 To every advance made by the two men the girl replies: 'Go away" Finally she says she has taken poison and wants to die. The novelist asks the strange man to hail taxi to take the girl to Middlesfx hospital. On the way to the hospital the girl fights to jump from the cab. Calling at the hospital early the following morning the writer finds the girl con- scious. She reproaches him for sa ying her life.
 The nurse in charge explains that the girl is recovering but says that she has had a very narrow escape from death. The nurse asks the girl to give her name and home address

In past races, Cooper has been well up among the leaders until near the end when some- thing would happen to his motor.
 "I'ye got enough luck now to win a dozen races and still it eomes," Cooper said. He indicated that he was al- most in as bad fix now as before he's worried over which Of all the talismans is the luckiest. "Pd have to carry a trailer to carry all my luck pieces. I'm wailowing in luck"
 Many of the luck pieces have his- tories of, their own and the sends have requested thaIthey be returned after the race. ohe young woman living i'm Brooklyn, offered herself as Coorer's goddes Of luck.
