up the rent. she announced without
hesitation.
An empty purse forced Fabien to
face stern reality. He wondered why
the landlady insisted upon the rent
being paid. Was it a streak of mean
MSS? Surely she did not need the
money.
Manon's reaction to the demand was
quite opposite to Fabien's. To her it
seemed funny for anyone to ask money
from them. She could scarcely sup
press her laughter.
Marie always wanted to smile when
Manon laughed, but this was business.
Besides, she hated Fabien as much as
she liked his mistress, so she kept a
straight face, and turning toward him
belligerently she said: well, what
about it? You've been here week
today"
"A whole week." broke in Manon
suddenly. "Fabien, today then is our

answer.

do no good, Manon rushed to the door
and whirled the angry girl about just
as she was ready to flounce from the
room.
Marie had worshipped Manon since
| the first time she saw her in the hall
way that rainy night, so it needed
just a little coaxing and pleading for
Manon to persuade her not to report
to the landlady about the unpaid rent.
With one arm about Marie, Manon
signalled for Fabien to leave the ROOM
Marie was antagonized by his pres
ence, and she could handle the situa-
ton better alone. Fabien interpreted
the signal correctly and, greatly
amused, gathered up his wraps and
quickly departed, with final kiss
blown from his finger tips before he
closed the door.
Marie looked after him in disgust,
then back at Manon appraisingly
"You are a silly little fool to waste
your time on a pauper. With your
looks you ought to be rolling in money
and you could be if you set your
mind to it."
But Manon shook her head and
said, 81 would never think of such a
thing-we love each other"

women in Paris, Marie smiled wisely

CHAPTER VI
Love. Youth and Poverty

A company of three, Manon, Fa-
bien and poverty. lived happily to-
gether in the little attic room. They
were concerned only with their great
love and meagre wants.
Their project of marriage was for
gotten. They innoeently defrauded the
church of her rights and found them
selves united as man and wife without
thought or fear of consequences.
So absorbed was Fabien in his pas
sion that he gave little thought to his
family. He never dreamed of the dis
tress that his mysterious absence was
causing his father. Not for moment
did he doubt Manon's power to capti-
vate and win his family's admiration
and blessing. Back of it all was the
idea of obtaining his fathers consent
to their marriage. and Fabien explain
ed to Manon that aside from filial
duty and love it would be wise because
his father had unlimited means, and
their slim finances were already sad
~ reduced with no available means of
replenishing them.
For the time being, however, life
was too sweet to mar it by the slight
est change. Thoughts and things that
might have been worries We're forgot
ten in the eestaey Of kiss or the for
getfulness of an embrace.
Even poor little Fiji was neglected.
Her milk saucer was not always full,
and she probably wondered why her
fish bone was dry and hard instead
of juicy with luscious flesh.
One morning as Manon was holding
Fiji in her arms, explaining that lack
of food did not matter because she al
ways ate too much anyway, Fiji play
fully clawed at the ribbon around Ma
mons neck and the locket came united
and rolled off on the floor.

"Oh, you darling" Manon rushed
to him and Struggled impulsively int
his arms. "Fabien, you must promis
never to seold me for liking beautiful
things, especially ieWelry, for adore
it,"
II shall never scold you, sweet
heart. I, too, like beautiful things
and we shall have them-some day.
In the meantime, do you suppose you
could help me fix the lace in my
cuffs?"
With his arm around Manon, Fabien
lead her to the window, where his coat
was spread over a chair, disclosing q
pair of badly soiled lace ruffles.

Manon sympathetically.
A Whit of wind blew the windov

SHORT WAVE DUTCH PROGRAM
HEARD IN WASHINGTON, D. c.

Potentialities of long-distance
broadeasting have been foreibly DEM
onstrated to Americans not only by
the Marconi beam system, which IN
its present stage uses only code sig
nal, but by shortwave system per-
fected by the Dutch for transmitting
programs to the far-flung colonies of
Holland.
DR.. Bath Van der Pool, delegate
to the International Radiotelegraph
conference which met in Washington,
set up special short-wave receiver
at the bureau of standards and picked
up program broadcast by station
PCJJ, at Eidhovenk, Holland, sta
ton which he had designed and built.
DR.. Van der Pool, who is director
of research for the Philips Radio
works, which operates under conces-
sion from the Dutch government, set
up the specially devised Philips APP
paratus with the assistance of DR.. J.
H. Dellinger of the Bureau of Stand
ards, and together they listened in on
a program of speech and music which
they heard very clearly.
The success of this system of broad
casting has led to the formation of q
company which will furnish programs
regularly to the colonies. In the
limited StataS fba National broadcast.
ing company is going forward with
plans for the erection of shortwavt
transmitter and receiver for an Anglo
American exchange of programs.

Ships Publish News Received by Radio

American sailors on ships on the
high seas or in foreign ports eagerly
wait for the radio news bulletins
which are issued regularly, to find out
what is going on back home. The Navy
Department and the press cooperate
in furnishing this news service.
1t was through this radio news
source that Lindbergh first heard of
his promotion to colonel in the
Army Reserve Corps while he was
coming back across the Atlantic on
the cruiser Memphis.

UNITED MASTER BARRIERS
Subject: Alopecia or Badness
By r. D. Jackson

Is a physiological or pathological
deficiency or loss of hair, either par
tial or complete? Ever since man
has been particular about his APP
pearance, he has Lad a desire to have
nice head of hair, and up to the
present generation more time is spent
by humanity caring for the hair than
any other portion of the body.
Every time we glance into a mir
ror, or take our hats off we see to
it that our hair is properly arranged.
1t has been wisely said that ones
hair is their glory; if by chance by
improper care, or some constitutional
disorder we have lost it, we begin
to seek some means of regaining it.
Some of the local diseases may
cause badness; eczema and dandruff.
Dandruff is generally regarded as the
most potent cause of badness. 1t
| is a. plausible and attractive theory
to attribute to microbic invasion, for
the IllcTO-DdCliluS enters the mouth
of the hair follicle, multiplies and
forms a thin microbic lamina which
separates the hair shaft from the fol-
licular wall.
Epithelial irritation causes the
encysting of the bacilli in a plug or
cocoon, then follows increased flow
of the sebaceous gland, causing at
rophy of the hair papillae.
Some of these causes may be trac-
ed to city life, excessive meat diet,
insufficient exercise, and some may
be traced to heredity.
If the causes be of local nature
your dermatician or barber, is able
to give you guaranteed cure for the
cause; but if it is from constitution
al cause you would have to consult
"a physician, and with the help of
both, you will in time regain that
which you so highly prize.
