Worthington was flabber-

chorus girl-by a-ah, that
was the answer
"Your house!" he sneered.
"Don't give me that sa-
lami-everybody here knows
whose house it is-and if it
is yours, exactly how
come"
He looked significantly
toward the inner room,
whence Warriner had not
yet emerged.
Queenie S eyes shot sparks.
"You get out of here,
she cried, cor you'll find
out whose house it is.
You'll get the buns

She ran to the bedroom
door and opened it.

Warriner, who had been
sitting on the divan, deep
in thought, scrambled to his
feet and ran into the room.
"W hat s h appened e d,
honey?" he asked solicit
ously. What's wrong?"
He insulted me, she
cried, indicating Worthing-
ton.
Stew ie, almost sober
through the turn of events,
stood blinking. He and
Warriner had been cronies
for years. They belonged
to the same clubs and had
frivoled with the same girls.

Queenie had almost for-
gotten him. Where was heG
What had become of himH
She cast a quick, rotary
panoramic glance about the
rooms. Eddie was not in
sight.
"He's downstairs in your
in the car" whispered
Wary. II had him fixed
up a bit and told him he
should wait there for you
that you'd come. 7"
Warriner snapped his
fingers and a servant ran
up.
Miss Mahoney's wrap, "
he ordered.
Warriner took her to the
elevator. A hush had fall
len over the whole gang.
There was something de-
pressing, after all, in the
election of Stewie, who was
a jovial sort and who was
known to be MARINERS s
shadow; and there was
mysterious shadow clouding
the departure of Queenie.
Why was she walking out
of her own new home, out
on her invited guests? What
did the intrusion of Eddie
and the walloping knock
out he suffered from War
riner have to do behind it
all?
The colored orchestra hit
it up on a signal, but some
how the spirit If the spree
had been choked off.
A few couples danced
Enthusiastically. Warriner,
returning from the corridor,
was sullen and silent.
The giant doorman bowed
obsequiously as he let
Queenie out between the big
brazen doors.
At the curb stood her new
town ear, an imported glory
of refinement, power and
unmistakable class. Warri-
ners don't buy brightly
painted runabouts for the
girls they love.

her, the little sister who had
stolen him from her!
She was about hotly to
expose the deception.
But she bit her tongue
and was silent.
If Hank wanted it that
way, why should she double
cross her behind her backf
She would have it out with
her, two by two. So she
was silent.
Eddie turned his eyes
toward her, held them there
and waited.

"You know well enough.

Manley time-how she's

Queenie gasped.
The whole scheme of it
overwhelmed her all at
once.

They were partners in bank

Warriner crossed to him
and whispered in his ear.
Please go, Stewie.
Queenie s very agitated
over some things we dis
cussed-and your drunk.

"Who wants troublef"
blurted Stewie, aloud. Il

friend helped him into his
tux, which had been kicked
about the floor merrily.
"But this isn't the end of
this little affair - not

she thinks she can do this
to me-and you too, Wary
and she'll stay in the
show, she's crazier than l
thought she was when she
had the impertinence to

"Go along, Stewie," " said
Warriner, trying to be as
conciliatory and yet as
mandatory as his mingled
sentiments dictated.
"Who wants to be in that
show?" cried Queenie. Give

"Oh-already? The show

gled Stewie. "You work
fast" and he looked again
toward the now open door.

door for her. The action
threw up the inner lights,
now set to function as the
crack of the carriage door
opened.
Within, slumped in a
corner, his head on his chest
as though asleep, sat Eddie,
huddled and inanimate. He
raised his face as the lights
sprang on. Queenie saw that
he had a great red bruise on
his cheek where he had been
hit by WARMERS we'll

"To the Princeton Hotel, "
said Queenie to the driver.
The door closed and she
was beside him in the dark.

carrying them smoothly and
swiftly away.

mumbled Eddie.
"To Hank. I"

that they were.
Queenie stopped in her

toward her with a bleary
smile on his swinish face,
Queenie slapped it right off.

her party was raging and
roaring, stepped the hostess.
She had quite forgotten all
about it. There were her
guests-this was her apart
ment; how strange it all
struck her.
While, within, the entire
romantic two-acter had been
played-while Eddie had
burst in and had been
knocked out-while Warri-
ner had declared his love
and offered, pleaded, to
make her his wife-these
tipsy men and women had
been joshing and lushing
and dancing and neeking.
Stewie Worthington had
toppled in his snooze against
the wall on the floor, and
the fall had awakened him.
He was in again and up

The newest discovery in beauty cul-
ture is that creamed magnesia is
much better for oily skin than any
soap or cleansing cream. It beauties
the skin instantly, in the same easy
way that milk Of magnesia purifes
the stomach. This is because skin
impurities are acid. Doctors treat
acid inside the bodywith milk of mag
nesia. And now, dermatologists are
getting amazing results in banishing
complexion faults with creamed mag
nesia. All you do is anoint your skin
with it, massage and rinse with water.
It's as simple as washing your face.
It reduces enlarged pores to the
finest, smoothest texture almost as if
by magic. Being astringent, it drives
away the tell-tale signs of age. You
will marvel at the effect of your first
five-ninute facial massage. It re-
iuvenates the skin so quickly that
any woman can look lovely tonight,
