holding up his arms and there
was in his watery blue eyes such
a look Of helplessness as Jerry
had never seen on the face of
any other human being. Planted
no more than a foot away and
with his back toward Jerry was
a masked bandit, pistol in hand.
The weapon trembled a little, but
the legs that were placed rather
wide apart were rooted to the
ground.
Amateur at the game" was
Jerry's first thought. Then he
placed a warning finger to his
lips and his eyes gave courage
to the old man. With q swift,
strong gesture Jerry grasped the
bandit by the wrist, at the same
time, entwining his leg with the
others in such a way as to throw
him.
The pistol rolled to the ground
and the gangster seized Jerry by
the throat. But it was only a
feeble gesture Of defiance for

nine inches long for correcting
lines in the forehead and an
other strip four inches wide and
long enough to encircle tbs
throat. Cut other strips about
two inches wide and four inches
long for under the eyes, two
strips three inches wide and six
inches long for lines around the
mouth. It Is an excellent idea
to have a few extra pieces on
hand.
After thoroughly opening the
pores by holding a hot compress
to the face and throat, dip the
gauze for the forehead in the al
bumen and. placing the center Of
the gauze on the forehead be-
tween the eyes, smooth it out
towards the temples.
Dip one of the little pieces in
the albumen and starting at the
corner Of the eye, smooth out
the gauze againt the direction Of
the wrinkles. The movement is
the same as that used in massage
treatments for erasing lines from
the area around the eyes. AL
ways work against the lines.
Next apply the strips to the
laughing lines. starting at the
corners of the mouth and extend
the gauze to a point between the
temple and the ear. Then sat
urate the large strip Of gauze
and holding the head erect,
spread the gauze smoothly over
the entire throat. Allow the
strips to remain on as long as
possible.
You will feel a slight drawing
Of the skin as the strips dry out,
but the face will feel firm and
the muscles and tissues taut. II
you prefer taking the treatment
at night, the little strips may be
applied to any or all parts of the
face and throat and allowed to
remain on until morning. Pat
a little water over Il : gauze be-
fore removing it, lifting the strips
from the face in the same direc-
ton as they were applied SO that
none of the benefits derived from
the treatment are lost. E
An ice massage is excellent at
this time, provided it is gentle
and an upward and outward mo-
ton is employed. Harsh methods
should never be used on the face,
as the fine underlying tissues
and muscles are easily damaged.

q sharp wind blew a spray of
foam across his face that he
realized he had reached the river
front.
An idea struck his brain-an
ugly, devastating idea. 1t flashed
across his mind as looked into
the fathomless d. pths of the
seething waters and saw his own
harried reflection. He shuddered,
then continued walking slowly,
his eyes fastened on the ground.
Suddenly he raised his head. Had
someone called? Impossible. The
moonlight threw into relief every
irregularity Of the jutting wharf
there was no one there. Yet
he could have sworn that he heard
a voice-it might have been a
mans voice or a woman's-cry
out ooh. my God" He turned
a sharp corner, then his body
stiffened inv%oluntarily.
Facing his was a man about
60 years old, well-dressed and
evidently with means. He was

What's Next IN Fashions?
BY BETTY BROWNLEB
Famous Fashion Expert

WITH the advent Of Spring
MAJ the ensemble again takes
w its place in the front ranks
of Fashion. Of course, this ever
popular style has been greatly
used during the Winter months,
but the newest ensembles in the
shops are so much lovelier than
the ones to which we have be-
come accustomed that it is hard
to resist their appeal.
Almost every material imagi-
nable is used to compose these
fascinating costumes. Even fig
ured chiffons are utilized TO fash
ion the most stunning Summer
ensembles imaginable.
Probably the popularity Of
this particular style is due to the
Te-entry of the jacket as an es-
sential part Of the wardrobe. For
now one must have jackets for
every occasion, whether it be
shopping, sportswear, dinner or
evening. And they are certainly
an adorable addition to the
parade.
8 Satin Is widely used this Spring,
and instead of the dress and coat
which we have been calling en-
sembks, we find the three-piece
costume leading. Some particu-
larly attractive costumes of this
type were seen in a Fifth Ave
nue. shop recently, made Of bril-
1iantly colored silk. The jackets
were Of the cardigan type, un-
lined, and the skirts buttoned on
to a white satin blouse. Alto
gether lovely for informal wear.
For more dressy occasions one
ean find almost any color or ma
teriaf.
A most appealing combination
b the one shown here. It is Of
black kasha. The coat is lined
with checked cravat silk "a most
popular material this season for
all uses) and also forms the
scarf.
The blouse is Of white satin
and has a novel touch in the but
toned yoke, which fastens with a
black kasha button.
Double box plaits give a jaunty
air to the skirt which is of the
latest decreed length, four inches
below the knees. By the way,
Paris says that skirts should be
at least six inches below the
knees, but I doubt if this length
will appeal to the American wo-
man, who likes freedom in her

been credited with rejuvenating
properties when applied to the
skin, but a certain skepticism has
prevented such treatments from
becoming popular.
Recent research, however, has
proved that the whites Of eggs
applied to the skin act as an
astringent and nourisher, closing
large pores and thus warding off
blackheads and extreme oiliness.
They tone up and rejuvenate the
skin and tissues. giving a firm
and youthful contour to the face.

The whites of eggs have lon.

tresses, as well as being both
