PROFIT TAKING
HALTS UPWARD
TREND STOCKS
(By the Associated Press)
tai stock sales, 2,1O7,0O0 shares.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a R.-Resump-
tion of the upward price movement in
today's stock market was accompanied
by a large volume of profit taking and
bear selling based on the theory that
the market was entitled to at least a
technical reaction after four weeks
of steadily rising prices. AS a result
the final quotations disclosed marked
irregularity, but there were no points
of actual weakness. Total sales crossed
the two million mark for the seventh
time in full session.
Mark etwise, one of the most impor-
tant news developments Of the day was
the announcement that operators in the
Seminole field had agreed upon certain
drilling restrictions to restrict produc-
tion in that territory Houston scored
an extreme advance of 13 points by
touching 103, closing IL points below
She top. General Asphalt preferred
jumped over 10 points to 134 and then
eased to $50. Barnsdall A touched a
new top at 35 and Producers and Re-
finers closed more than a point higher.
The money market was little steadier.
Call loans were quoted 4 per cent
all day with less funds available than
yesterday, but the official rate was
again reported shaded in the outside
market" The New York federal re-
serve bank announced no change in the
per cert rediscount rate, and earlier
in the day the bank of England rate
was announced as unchanged at per
cent. Time money and commercial
paper rates held steady.
Except for the increase from SO to $4
in the annual dividend on International
Business Machines, and another large
increase in car loadings in the week
ended February II, due largely to the
gain in coal loadings, there were few
business developments of consequence.
Several excellent sales and earnings
reports were published and a few poor
ones, particularly by the western rails.
Some uneasiness also was expressed

swell, what's this about being

The lopged-for moment had ar
rived, finding her Indifferent. Sacrl-
flee seemed little unnecessary now.
She doubted If Vivian would under
stand.
She managed to say, 81 shouldn't
have married him. But I didn't
realize it until after Mother .
You know about her?"
Vivian nodded, with almost a
frightened look in her hazel eyes.
Instantly Diana knew she must not
attempt to discuss their mother
That subject was to be taboo d.
But she must tell her.
"She left everything to me-" she
explained nervously. But I want
you to have your share Of It,"

abruptly. Don't mention it again"
She added, violently, I'D starve be-
fore I'd touch a penny Of It,"
Diana had not suspected her sis
ter capable of such bitterness as
rang in reply. But she couldn't
help thinking that Vivian was far
from any danger Of starving. Her
half might seem paltry sum to a
taste accustomed to such luxury,
Perhaps, after all, she should keep
it. The question seemed less i'm
portant than it had.
"Tell me-" Vivian repeated, ear
nestly, exactly what's wrong"
"Oh, we've separated, I left him
this morning..
Diana, you haven't?"
Certainly I have. Marriage is
distasteful to me. I couldn't endure
1t with any man. I must be free to
live my own life"
"But what will you do? Where
will you live? What are your plans?'
Her voice was so distressed that
Diana wished suddenly she had moi
brought the overnight bag. 1t was
evident that Vivian had no desire
to be responsible for her.
She gulped, st don't have any

How dared she force herself into a
strangers home? For after all this
Vivienne person was stranger. Sit
ting uncomfortable rigid in a high
backed, hand carved chair, diana
looked about he-.
The room was long and narrow,
with a thickly carpeted floor, over
which were spread many glowing,
silken rugs, with colors like jewels.
The furniture was a collection OF
surprisingly beautiful antiques. Just
enough to create an atmosphere OF
dignity. There were immense bowls
of flowers, dewy wet and fragrant.
There wos one picture of woman.
Her shining, exquisite loneliness was
a stab in the heart.
Diana thought, tits almost too
beautiful"
She would have liked 1t better
had there been one discordant note,
one single bit of Earring ugliness!
But 1t was fawless. Like a fairy
castle needing only an enchanted
princess Then she heard a
sweet, rather high-pitched, laugh
and. she leaped to her feet.
A subtle, smaddening fragrance,
rose pink chiffon, sweet, petulant
mouth and laughing eyes. That
was her sister.
ooh, Vivian!" she cried, and ran,
half stumbling, to be held against
a bosom softer than her mothers
had even been.
Diana, you naughty girl! Oh,
but I wanted see you. Let me
look at you, DARLING"
She pushed her gently away.
''Why, Diana, you're beautiful"
Honestly, Vive? Do you really
think SOP"
She slipped into the old habit Of
alteration as easily as she had as
sumed the half forgotten nickname.
Vivian seemed to like it. She pressed
her face against Diana's.
"Of course, I think so. But I am
surprised. When I saw you last
you were just thin little kid, with
a mop of light hair and long legs"
ooh, but I'm married now" Diana
announced complacently. "That is
WAS. I'm about to be myself
again"
Vivian looked puzzled.
"Sit down. Here, wait until I get
a cigaret."
Thank goodness she did not ask
Diana to Join her. She really must
learn, though. actresses always
smoked.
They sat side by side on cushions
so deep Diana felt as though she
were slowly sinking into scented
silken sea. 1t was most enervating-
this smooth, luxurious atmosphere
where surrounded her sister.

won't hesitate to call on me. You

I shall give up the apartment, of

"All right, Arthur"
"Good-by," he said.
"Good-by," she repeated, feeling
nothing whatever, but uncomfort-
ably conscious that she would be
having some sort Of sensations.

But with his, departure the apart
nent took on a sudden significance.
It became a place to get away from
as soon as possible. Almost fran
tically she cleared the table and
washed the dishes. Even made the
beds.
He was so helpless. She couldn't
have him return to a disordered
room. She hung up his bathrobe,
put the discarded clothes into the
laundry, and made everything tidy
again. At last these duties were &C
complished and she could pack.
True to her first decision she took
only the linen and clothes which
had been in her trousseau. She
hesitated over the gifts he had
bought for her In New York.
Telling herself 1t might hurt him
If she left them, she finally stuck
them into a corner of her trunk.
When she had finished she
dressed in the most sophisticated
garment she possessed.
Her blue eyes were circled with
little sooty shadows, her mouth was
wistfully Jexpectant. Any man see
ing her would have sworn she was
on her way to meet a lover.
But no man was ever remotely n
her mind as she entered the taxi
and repeated Vivian'S number. Sha
was carrying an overnight bag, hop
ing her sister would insist that she
stay with her until the moment of
her departure for New York. Sc
cretly she even hoped she might be
invited to accompany her.
A long ride, some very steep hills,
and the taxi stopped before an
apartment house whose windows
commanded views Of the sea. Diana
was thrilled. Not only by the quietly
expensive entrance, but by the we'll

saw.

She realized then that she was re-

been surprised to find her sister in

at the most, only '~c--"d to find her
in semi-respectable, artistic quar-
tiers.
This magnificence and luxury
made her afraid. 1t was evident
that Vivian was not in need OF

PARIS POLICE REPORT
FEWER ROBBERIES

PARIS 6E9--This has been a bad
year for house robbers in Paris.
Their big season is usually the
summer when people who live in
homes worth the attentions of first
class robbers have gone away to the
mountains or the seaside. This year
not SO many people went away as
in other summers when the weather
was better and the cost of loafing
less. The police have had far fewer
complaints than they expected from
Parisians returning to town to find
