a picture. In fact, Elise had neither pictures nor prints, nor mural decora- tions of any kind throughout the place.
 Her bedroom was white. White panelled walls, white ceiling, cream carpet. The bed was white and very low, with arched head and foot, carved richly. The dressing table was a white spinet, it's keyboard covered by plate glass, it's top profuse with flowers. The only lighting was on this spinet, and that was golden, with gold silk shades over the lamps.
 Her maids were easy to get, for she was willing to pay high wages and she chose two pretty girls, much alike, blonde. For the manservant ultimately she had to seek the aid of Brunei, who secured her a giant, six feet two, black as coal, and dumb.
 During this time she received many presents, and among them were two Alsatian wolfhounds and a little mon. key, whom she called Nippo. The man. servant had informed her that his name was Louis, but that being far too ordinary she rechristened him Baba, and informed him of the fact. He ac- cepted the denomination with an ex- pansive grin and no protests.
 To Baba she handed over the care of the Alsatians and NippO, and each

MINORITY REPORT
 FOR INDEPENDENCE

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-Declaring a stable government now reigns in the Philippine Islands and that the Fili- pinos are entitled to self government, a minority of the insular committee filed yesterday with the House, re- port asking for immediate independence and opposing the Fairfield bill, provid- ing for independence in 20 years.
 The report expressed no fear for the islands because of a Japanese menace" saying that mo country would want to subject itself to the reasonable and just condemnation of our great re- public" It strongly condemned the ar gument that the Philippines should be retained by the United States for strategic reasons in a possible war against Japan.
 The members who signed the minority report were Representatives Schaefer, republican, Wisconsin; Ragon, Arkan- sas; Ward, North Carolina; Williams, Texas; Milligan, Missouri; Gardner, Indiana; Salmon, Tennessee, and Will son, Mississippi, all democrats. The report was written and presented to the House by RepreSasaB4tve RagOn.

CHAPTER 30 SOWING THE
 WHIRLWIND

The months drifted.
 La Phalene was now more than fa- nous. Offers had poured in on her from London and New York. She could have danced in Buenos Aires for a nightly salary such as a great prima donna might ask. Yet she refused them all, inclining only for moment towards the New York offer, but ulti- mately refusing to accept it; for still,. deep down within her, she clung to the hope that Kendrick might one day re- turn to Paris looking for her.
 She still danced that dance which had made her name-The Valley of Hope Forgotten-but now it was aug rnented by other, more exotic move ments, and was only performed by spe- eial request.
 She had set out to gather about her an army of admirers, and in this she had been successful beyond her widest dreams. If safety lay in numbers.
 The glory of Lolette was as nothing beside the effulgence of this new star.
 Money passed through her hands like water rushing swiftly over the bed of steep stream. There were four cars. Her chauffeur, in his gray and mauve, was the smartest in all Paris.
 Yet, despite all this riotous expendi- ture, despite the lavish display, the costly gowns, the wonderful furs, money went every month to the account of Marthe Duchanier, thousands of francs, tens of thousands of francs, money be- yond Marthe's widest dreams and ex- pectations.
 For Elise, in one respect, at least, kept her head.
 These men who gathered about her, wealthy, admiring, luxurious in their habits, paid for every smile, for every favor she designed to bestow on them. It was the Count Mordac himself who gave her the Hispano Suiza, with it's gray and mauve bodywork to match her chauffeur's uniform, its satinwood interior panels, its luscious upholstery.
 Brunei remohstrated with him on the gift, for the two had drawn to- gether again somewhat during this pe- riod.
 "That wOman," said Brunei, "as-
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-05-19

tounds me. Why did you give her that car, my friend?"
 Mordac shrugged his shoulders. "0ne pays tribute, he answered ambigu- ously.
 Brunei smiled. In the hope that there may be an investment locked up eh? Hear this. my friend. She is be- yond us, that woman. She is on a great flood of her own loosing. 1t is 8 game for fools"
 Mordac smiled. "So that means I am fool Wen, Brunei, we all have our follies."
 Brunei tried to read his eyes, but did not give cars for the sake of giving them.
 In fact, probably Mordac alone read Elise truly. He alone realized that she withheld herself from everybody.
 Yet the many would disperse. He had seen these things, on a lesser scale, before. The lustre of. La Phalene's fame would wane. Then the followers would drop off so that the few would be left. Of those few, assuredly the Count Mordac would be one. And Brunei would be another, for Brunei stood by always because he must. %4's
 Mordac wondered if, at the last. it would be as at the first, struggle be- tween himself and Brunei
 Of that third man who had inter- yened in the beginning American, Kendrick- he did not think; he had forgotten him. Yet he filled La Pha- lene's thoughts T
 So the thing crescendoed. It became shrill and deyouring. Elise, having started it, found herself gripped in it remorselessly, beyond all hope of es- cape. Luxury was piled on luxury. Entertainment succeeded entertainment. The newspapers were filled with her doings, her dinners, her moods.
 The whirlwind was at its height. The sowing was broadcast, scattered, and only God knew where the seeds were falling.
 It could not last. Something must break. It could not last

morning it was Baba's duty to take all three for an airing in the Champs Elysees, the great dogs walking before him on double leash, Neppo perched either on his shoulder, or on the back of one of the dogs, with whom he had become remarkably friendly. It was, as Brunei observed, wonderful ad- vertisement.
 Each fortnight she ran down to the coast and saw Marthe, who was slowly gaining strength, and would ultimately, according to the opinion of the famous specialist, whose name Lapierre had given Elise, be fit to undergo the op- eration which might be the means of restoring her to an active part in life.

 HER decision made, Elise consulted not even Brunei, but set about
 her task of furnishing her cham bers without regard to cost and with the ut:oost expedition. She had the drawing room redecorated in pink and silver, very delicate shades, against which she set rosewood furnishings. There were no pictures, and the fur niture was sparse, so that the room looked bare, except that the rich blue carpet was piled here and there with cushions-cushions all colored like flame, like the rainbow; cushions downy and softly, round, hexagonal, square.
 It was these cushions, arranged in heaps, so that one might lounge on them with ease, that gave the room that touch of comfort of which its baroness deprived it. The lighting was indirect, and it filtered from round the edge of the carved ceiling, its rays made pink by colored glass.
 The dining room Elise found more easy. She provided no table. All meals would be taken on the floor. There were divans set about, low, in the eastern fashion, and little wheeled stools. The walls of the room were panelled in ebony, relieved by thin white mounting. The ceiling was red, rich red, with two great hanging lamps from Persia providing all the illumina- tion.
 The floor, left bare, was polished, and spread with gorgeous rugs. There was not a chair in the room, nor yet

 THE STORY
 A new star has blazed in the theatri- cal world in Paris. She is La Phalene a girl of gentle birth-Elise Duchanier who through misfortune became maid to Lolette, a dancer. The latter's spite full machinations against her maid mis- carry and Elise outshines her.
 Elise, sole support of an invalid sis ter, is warned by the elderly Dr. La pierre, who loves her, that she has only a year to live. Suitors gather about La Phalene, including Maurice Brunei, her manager, and Count Nor dac. Tom Kendrick, an American of a different sort, whom she met earlier, has left Paris It is he who has made the deepest impression on her.
 Brunei takes her to dinner. She mocks him. Elise determines to pro- tect herself by the number of her suit ors, yielding to none, and to live splen- didly in the year that is left to her.
