 In moment Monty came car rying candle, which he shaded with his hand.
 How handsome he looks, thought Ashtoreth. But she was trembling too violently to say any, thing. There were voices on the street. and the sound of a car with engine running madly. Then a horrid clattering shook the little house. '

 It must have been an iron knocker. at the very least. It shook the bricks. and beams of wood. And flakes Of mortar came tumhling down from the walls.

 But Hollis was not there when they arrived.

 He declined shortly. No

 Monty whistled. "Was he sore because you met mel"
 "Oh. no. No, that wasn't 1t. We haven't quarreled. In fact ] think he probably left a note for me when he went out. but Mogg was cleaning. and she's the most thorough thing you ever saw.

Only I'm just little nervous. And would appreciate it if you'd stay with me-"
 Monty considered his hat Ot was one of those light gray ones-al- most white) and flecked an im- aginary speck from it's spotless rim. He was plainly embarrassed.
 Gosh, Ash! I'd rather net go up to your rooms. Don't you see how it is? Let's sit down here in the lobby"
 Ashtcreth's color rose hotly.
 You're the most provincial creature" she told him angrily. "No, I shan't sit in any old lobby. Go ahead, if you want. Go home, and say your prayers, and ask God to keep you good, circumspect little boy. Go on"
 She flounced off. Then turned on her heel with another little ad. monition.
 Co to the devil!" she com- manded tersely.
 He stood there until she had stepped into the lift, and was whisked away. The lift, he mo- ticed, was like golden cage. And the thought flashed through hts mind that Ashtoreth was a captive girl in golden cage. Monty was not imaginative, nor particularly sentimental. He shrugged. and pulling his smart hat over his eyes. stopped a taxi and returned to his pension. . Some time after midnight, he was startled by batter of small ) stones on his window. He woke in- ] stantly. With sort of clairvoyant sense, he knew that Ashtoreth vas

 'It's about Holly" she cried 'He hasn't come home yet. Monty took her arm sternly. ''Go in the house."

New Mexican Tax Law
 Threatens Oil Fields

Mexico City. Jan. 2s R-El Uni- versal said today tat complete -paralyzation of oil fields in the state of Vera Cruz had been threatened by oil interests in protest against . state law. The law became effective January IT.
 The law imposes a new local tax of l5 per cent on royalties to land surface owners, on deals transferring rights. on option contracts entered into before January IT, and on amounts due for transfers of explor- ation and exploitation rights. The newspaper said oil interests had decided to oppose the law by all legal means and to resort to com plete stoppage If necessary.

 She would walk along rue Sainte Honore, out to the Tauborg. and look in the windows of all those adorable little shops. They were sure to be full of entrancing things. She'd get quilted bed jacket for Maizie. And some of that gleaming Russian jewelry for Sadie. Sadie would adore those ankle bangles. and the long, drip py ear rings. If she didn't have enough money. she could have them sent collect to the hotel. Hollis wouldn't mind. But it would serve him right. if he did. Her last afternoon in Paris! And he'd gone off, without a word. When she returned. Mogg was back. And Hollis had telephoned. leaving word that he had been de- layed. It was seven o'clock. ''I'll wait half an hour" she decided, and if he isn't in then, I'll have dinner by myself"
 She would go to Maxim's. be- cause she enjoyed watching French girls. They fascinated her. Hollis didn't like to take her there, because he said she stared outrageously.
 At half past seven. Ashtoreth put on dark clothes. and small felt hat. She had heard that wo- men were not admitted alone. But that of course was nonsense. American girls go everywhere. With we'll bred nonchalance, they crash the gilded gates of the est and the worst places in Paris. "Tll stroll right in," she d,- cided. They won't dare say any thing"
 So she took a taxi, and was de- posted at Maxim's, along with a few American tourists, and two dubiously attractive ladies. who arrived simultaneously. She fol- lowed on the heels of the tourists, leaving the cocottes (for srSh they were) standing on the side walk. waiting an suspicious mo- ment to ask some man to take them in
 i She sat at a small table near the door, where she could best see sin in action. It wasn't as ex citing as she expected. The ladies of the boulevards. sitting in groups, ordered drinks, and chat ted together. quite like women anywhere. The American tour ists looked at them shyly, and | made comments behind their hands.
 There was not woman there who looked fast" in the Ameri- ran sense. Ashtoreth wondered if any of them were war widows. and if they had children. She ordered filet Of sole with | wine sauce and was waiting for it when she was conscious of someone | standing at her elbow. ''Ashtoreth: What, fin the name of all that's holy, are you doing | here?"

 They toasted each other gaily. Here's to the maiden of bash full fifteen: Here's to the widow of fifty; Here's to tha Haunting. extrav agant queen, And here's to the housewif, that's thrifty!

THIS HAS HAPPENED

1H1D uA0 GlAEIGINEAU
 Ashtoreth and Hollis Hart are newlyweds. honeymooning in Paris. Ashtoreth is rarely beautiful. and Hollis is extraordinarily rich. He calls her "Orchid" because she re- minds him of that lovely flower.
 But happiness seems, somehow to have eluded them. Before their marriage Ashtoreth has been . ste nogsapher in Hart's employ. She is years younger than he. and he idol izes her youth and beauty.
 In Paris she meets an old sweet heart. Monty English. who has gone to France to sell radios for his lrm. Monty is young and Monty ii , handsome. But he is distressingly poor. and Ashtoreth couldn't see him at all.
 He treats her rather coldly. but 1t is apparent that he is still in love with her. Hollis devotes himself to tennis and the collection of antiqut. tes. Both pursuits bore Ashtoreth to tears. When he Is not at the courts or browsing about in old shops. he makes tender love to his little bride And that also bores her. Annoys might be a better word. She ha. discovered that he has two front teeth that come out on little swiv- els. and that spells the end of TO- nance.
 She invites Monty to have dime, with them and contrives to see him on several occasions. though Monfs tries to discourage it.
 On their last day in Paris she has luncheon with Monty at Jacks He tells her frankly that he doesn't want to see her again.

The vicinity of the shrine was dense
with humanity for many blocks. A pre-.

GRADE CROSSING NEEDED

The grade crossing accident
Tuesday which might so easily
have proved fatal, once more
calls the attention of the public to
the need of an underground via
duct which would render impos-
sible accidents like that. During
the summer season at certain
times of the day the number of
cars which cross the track at the
west side OF town would average
more than one a minute. When
ever a train blocks the crossing
for a few minutes a long line Of
cars gathers on each side of the
track. During the tourist season
the traffic is particularly heavy on
the Roosevelt Highway and the
greater the number of cars, the
greater the possibility of acct
dents.
Some of the citizens are very
DESTROYS that a viaduct be con
structed. Let us hope that this
may be done before fatal accident
shocks the city into seeing the
genuine need for such a crossing.

the statements made by Taylor

After both sides rested, Judge

he had had With Mr.. Taylor both
before and after he took over the

The plant had originally been
that of the Flaxville Democrat

time. Paul Paulson had worked
for Peter Paulson at Plentywood

the Roosevelt County Independent,
he had said: why | haven't any

Peter Paulson, who was working
in Wolf Point then, made several
trips to Plentywood. With Mr..
