when she found a kindred spirit

The other girls would have told
her about the two weeks guaran'

terms with them, no doubt, but to
Jerry the stage was only Job. II
was a better job than the one shed
had at Fane's, but she hadn't given
up her early ambition.

They probably wouldn't be with

asked Evelyn.
"Well, you know DEAR" Evelyn
said, ito use homely smile, there
are usually some bad eggs In the

girls; they help to train the show
until the strain Of working and
playing too hard gets to be toe
much for them"
but it's not fair to use them
to teach the others and then not
give them a chance to open," Jerry
proclaimed warmly.
Evelyn smiled at her.
"Mr. Hule gives them thei,

'Is there anyone else who could

was someone she would like very
much to ask II Alester failed her.
There was Dan. She hadn't seen

Alester had taken her back to the

she'd not heard a word from him.

Editor, The Tribune:
It has often been said that the
more wealth man acquires the more
he wants. Perhaps it is the same
with nation. We are by far the
richest people in the world. And
perhaps that is the reason that we
cast such an overwhelming vote for
dry president. Since prohibition,
we have made our greatest gains in
wealth. The per capita savings in
savings banks and other time de-
posts, for the eight years before the
war, averaged less than 800 per
capita. Since the. war the average
is $1S5, and still is mounting, 1927

PROTECTING RECORDS OF ANCESTORS

Although the craze for family trees with roots in
the soil of the Garden Of Eden has been outsripped
BY other fads in this country there still enough

with mixed emotions the attempt in England to make
parish registers and records difficult of access
They have long been the favorite Of American
ancestor-seekers who have drawn from them material
which has delighted many family.
Z From the nature of the proposed measure it would
seem that some of the hunters have been so anxious
about the that they have ignored the rules Of
the game. There are instances of records altered
They have been distracted bodily for the delecta
ton (and expense) Of the American family climber
The worthy persons, including many amateur genealo-
the proprieties delved into musty records will, of
course, feel little resentful that they should by i'm

| No, he didn't want to marry
Jerry-it would be a nuisance.
Jerry was vaguely aware of a
y change in his attitude toward
her. A subtle sense of his perplex-
ity. q feeling that he toyed with a
fascinating but Objectionable idea,
invaded her mind and left her with
mixed emotions. She was amused
at his conceit and assurance, and
chagrined because they were JUS
titled.
But she didn't want to think;
her. work in the chorus was firing
her body SO that her mental facul-
ties could not be goaded to sharp
perceptions and clean-cut conclu-
sions. Thus it was not consciously
that she drew Alester nearer and
nearer to what he thought of as a
mice mess" She did not guess
that 1t was her determination to
make good that was firing his i'm.
agination, causing the change she
felt in him.
She had no idea that Alester saw
her as a romantic figure on the
road to success, that he was think.

she owed him, more and more of
winning her at any cost.
But though she did. not know
that he was waving her gratitude.

ing any. She felt that they were
even-that he had helped her in
order to make amends for his un.
warranted conduct at the shore.
She worked like slave to merit
the chance he'd given her, to make
good his boast that Mr.. Weinertz
would thank him for bringing her
to the Office. To Jerry, that was
sufficient pay for Alester's kind
ness.
She did not work in vain. The
day before they were to entrain
for Atlantic City Mr.. Hule admitted
to Mr.. Weinertz that Miss Ray had
the stuff. The producer grunted
in reply, satisfied.
He'd been paying Jerry a salary
with money supplied by Alester.
This he hadn't told Mr.. Hule, who
knew, however, that the girl was
being paid. Mr.. Weinertz was just
a little afraid Of his stage directors

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Osteomyelitis


Question: Miss A. C. writes: 81

/ had an operation. A piece Of bone
was taken out of my right sacroiliac
joint which was examined showing
that it could very we'll represent resi-
dues of chronic non-specific osteo-
myelitis. Would you advise fruit
fast?"
Answer: The fruit fast would
bring about marked improvement in
the condition of your blood and
might prevent further trouble in
your hip. Your surgeon may be
forced to remove more pieces of bone
but you can help yourself a great
deal by occasional fasts and living on
a good BODYBUILDING diet at other
times.
Large Nose
Question: L. N. writes: 81 am
IA years old and have rather a large
nose. It is 2 inches long and little
over 2 IL inches wide. Do you
think it safe for me to try q nose.
adJuSter! 1t so what kind would
you advise of those advertised in the
magazines?
Answer: Unless you are an actor
it would be foolish for you to try to
change the shape Of your nose. If
there is anything in physiognomy a
large nose indicates strong mental
powers. It has been pointed out
that the largest majority of our
great men and women have been
well blessed with generous sized
noses.
Vitamin B
Question: M. H. j. asks: (which
foods contains most of the Vitamin
B?" :,
Answer: Vitamin B. is present I'M
nearly all fresh foods. Tomatoes
and spinach are rich in this vitamin.
Potatoes, turnius and lettuce are also
good sources. It is not found in
sugars, fats, oils and highly milled
starchy products, as white flour,
white rice and cornstarch.
