The Hopeless Girl"

Janet says she's hopeless when 1t
comes to looking pretty, and adds that
if anyone is fond OF her. it will not be
an affection based on physical admira-
ton. It isn't true, of course, that she's
hopeless; no one ever is, no matter
what ner age or her looks. Janet has
youth to help her, she's IS. I'll admit
that casualty looked at, she's any
thing but beautiful she has mis-
matched features and she's ordinary
looking as well.
But a lot can always be done, and
some months ago Janet was induced
to try. This is what happened

CHAPTER XXXV.
The Next Morning.

1t was very late when Sally finally
fell asleep, and the next morning as
she dressed for breakfast her thoughts
were still confused.
The sun was shining through the
portfolio, and the electric fan over her
head was stirring the air in the small
cabin. 1t was very hot.
Myra, her head buried in the pillow.
was still asleep. Soon the stewardess
would arrive with Myra's tray and she
would sit up and eat her breakfast.
She never went to the dining room.
Sally went down TO breakfast, and
almost Immediately her eyes sought
Richards table. He wasn't down, or
else he had had breakfast and was al
ready on deck. Abstractedly, she drank
her orange juice and attacked her
eggs and toast. Two cups of very
strong coffee brought back her sense
OF values, but banished none Of the
feeling that she had for Richard. She
still loved him.
She did not return to the cabin.
They were nearing the equator and
somehow the cabin did not appeal to
her this morning. It was all right
after it was cleared up and made
ready for inspection. But directly
after breakfast, with Nyra still in bed
ana articles OF wearing apparel thrown
carelessly about. it was quite dreadful.
Sally wanted the salt breath of the
sea and the sight of the sun on the
water.
She settled herself in her deck chair
and opened a book that she had car
ried down to breakfast with her. But
she could not read.
Every few minutes she would raise
her eyes to scan the deck. Surely,
this morning of all mornings, he
would appear directly How easy il
was to close her eyes and imagine
every detail about him. His immacu.

She hardly knew what she said to him,

stead of seeking her out, az he al
ways did, he preferred that,
Rebellion and hot fury surged up in
her. Instantly she became very gay.
Up to that moment her thoughts had
been with Richard and she had
answered the man who was walking
with her in monosyllables. Now she
began consciously to initiate Myra.
How easy it was to do it, too, and
how instantly the man responded to
her gay sallies.
This was the first time Mrs. Bates
had given him any of her time. Up to
the present moment, that Mr.. Alden
had monopolized her, and she had
seemed to have eyes for no one else.
How would you like to go down
and see the engine room?" he asked.

me down at IL o'clock. I'm sure I
can ring you in on the engagement. "
Sally seized the chance with avidity.

Orange and Celery Salad.

Celery is particularly well adapted
to combine with fruit in some sweet
salad. One attractive way Of serving
this particular combination is to cut
with a sharp knife around the orange
peel SO as to form little biscuits. The
pulp is scooped out, and after remov-
ing the white pithy party, cut in dice.
The celery should be literally minced
so as to combine attractively for serv-
ing in the orange baskets. AS for the
proportions, this is a matter of taste.
The celery and fruit should be com
bined with a delicately made French
dressing poured through the mixture,
which Is then arranged carefully in
the orange baskets. One word of eau
ton. 1t is advisable to use lemon
juice In making French dressing.
Vinegar is rather strong for this par
ticular type of salad.

The color photography is very well
done and the color adds a beauty to
the scenes that would be hard to ap-

however. it escapes notice.
The work of Pierre Magnier as
