Together the two girls had come
to New York to seek adventure,
to taste life and TO build up what
gave every promise Of being sue
cessful careers. In the little town
Of Danville, where they had
played and studied together, they
were thoroughly happy. Mousey
little Hester provided a sort OF
u%nobtrusive background for the
famboyant Boo-Boo-their rela-
tionship had been as c~arefree as
it was peaceful. But Dick
Dick Roberts, who had followed
them to New York in the hope
of making Hester his wife-had
come between them. Hester's
deceiving of Dick had made Boo
Boo realize that she, herself,
loved him-had made her deter
mine to fight for that love.
She regarded Hester now sui
lenly through her tears. "Our
business partnership ends the
moment our friendship ends" she
said slowly. "I'll move out of
here tomorrow and you a get
someone to take my place in the
office" Slowly she rose and got
her wraps. 81 won't trouble you
again after tonight" she said as
she closed the door behind her.
On the street Boo-Boo walked
quickly, she knew not where. She
felt that she was sitting. that
her lungs were bursting. The
predicament in which she found
herself hemmed her in on all
sides. The one friend she had in
the world had turned out to be
deceitful. The man she loved
hardly recognized her existence
he was too busy trying to win
the girl who had turned against
her. She had lost a promising
opportunity to make good in New
York, and, what was worse, she
had lost her desire to fight.
Tears came to her eyes and as

it fits snugly to the sides Of the
nose and around the eyes and

This finished, there isn't O
thing to do but lie down quietly
until the paste is dry. Be careful
to keep the face relaxed az much

When the paste is dry dash
tepid water over it until the mask
is thoroughly wet so it may be re-
moved easily. Wipe off any re-
naming paste from the skin AID
pat the skin dry. Then, just to
further Offset any drying effects,
more olive oil and almond oil
should be massaged over the skin
and allowed to remain on for
three or four minutes before its
removal with soft. cleansing It's

If the skin feels slightly irri-
tated and appears a bit red do
not despair. It simply means
the bleaching treatment has been
a success and within an hour or
so all traces of the treatment will
be gone, leaving the skin soft and
white.
You not only will find the skin
several shades lighter, but tiny
lines have disappeared and the
texture of the skin is smooth and
soft.
There is no reason why this
bleach cannot be used as often
as once each week if this is
necessary as all three ingredients
are antiseptic and healing. Skins
react differently, however, to
various treatments and / simply
mention the bare possibility Of
temporary redness and slight ir-
ritation SO you won't be alarmed

tionally sensitive skin.

you how to bleach the hands,
arms, throat and chest so they,
too, need show no discoloration
after your week end parties in
the open.

TVhat's Next IN Fashions?
By BETTY BROWNLEE
Famous Fashion Expenl

T7HE mid season styles are
being shown. Half are for
hot weather and the other
half look several months ahead to
the time when the frost will be
with US.
Liberty of person is being
menaced by both. The bachelor
freedom of the straight line, the
short skirt and the simple style
in general is, if possible, threat
ened more now than in the late
Spring fashions broadcast two
months or so ago. Paris shows
in its costumes distinct indica-
tons of bending to the purely
feminine in clothes with scarcely
q struggle.
The moulded upper silhouette,
instead Of dying a quick death,
is now casting a long shadow
over fashion forecasts. Some OF
the leading Paris dressmakers are
showing dresses for evening, and
for day also, with silhouettes that
are moulded almost to the knees,
from which point the skirt Is
allowed to fare as extravagantly
as possible.
Present and future fashions de-
mand a coming down in the world
of the skirt hem. You may have
heard this before, but there is no
escaping it now. Smart skirts
are, and will be, always below
and never at the knee. For we
ming, even for formal afternoon,
they are apt to be much longer.
The hemline also promises to be-
come Strengthened to a great ex-
tent. Dips, fshtails and other
irregularities will be greatly
modified or will disappear alto
gether. But hens will be lower.
Color and gay color combina-
lions still play an important part
in the Summer wardrobe. It is
true that pages and pages have
been written about prints, but
there still seems more to be said.
The newest groups of prints for
afternoon wear feature very
large designs, widely spaced, SO
that both background and pat
tern receive their due.
For those of US who love prints
