The new money is the same size as

But Ashtoreth despised confor-

attracting unusual attention to her
legs, slim and lovely.
She wore black exclusively. And
felt hats, summer and winter. With
a bit of briIn, when everybody else
thought brims were old-faShioned.
She never used perfume, but a
haunting sachet instead. And rouge
she abominated.
Ashtoreth loves beautiful things
with an instructive appreciation of
color and texture. She bought rem

Chinese embroidery, to relieve the
somber black of her frocks. Old
lace. And an occasional length Of
lustrous satin, heavy as velvet.
She had a way of wrapping the

skirts swathed her hips. And she

She knows lines. And the drama

There were forty girls who worked

And each of them coveted the envi-

their distinguished president.
Ashtoreth had worked for the firm

There was a great deal of inter

The Sunday supplements told at

And the tabloids recited, with
much detail, the agonized love OF

The battle for Indiana's electoral

Chief interest In the @. O. P. meet

the heart Of the Indiana corn belt, was
centered in Senator Watson, who de-
feated Herbert c, Hoover in the
Hoosier primary. Senator Watson set

farmers to place their trust in man

definite program while the other pro-
