SYNOPSIS-The veil Juanita Basara wears as cigarette girl in Divitt's gambling house oug- geSts a mystery which Divitt and Nelly, his wife, have not penetrated. But Eric Ledbetter tries tc tear eff her disguise, onraging Gabroau, previously her protector against Umberto. Divitt steals necklace from Mrs. Belaise, a patren, and later sends Juanita to return it. As Senorita Flcres sho de- lights Mrs. Belaise by bringing back the necklace found, she explains, in the street. Though she refuses the reward, she ac- ccpts the ring-his late moth ci's-which Mrs. Belaise'S grand son, Kirk Stanard, brings to the hotel. Divitt employs a former associate, the Marquesa Cabrera, to chaperone Juanita, while aiding in his plans to rob the homes that Juanita will visit.

 Divitt pointed to it. "Swear!"
 The marquesa held the cross be. tween her palms. T swear" she said.
 Juanita dressed that night with hands that trembled slightly. Kirk had stayed past his time. -Juanits felt that he expected to meet some one else, some member of the fam ilye perhaps-desiring some mort definite bond than the necklace He had left finally, with her hali promise to go with him to the Comus ball! Would Divitt allow that?
 Juanita tucked Mrs Belaise's ring in a drawer. Tomorrow she would put it on a cord around her neck It was beautiful, but it was it touch she loved, like the touch 0. a friend.
 Kirk Stanard would not be 1T the parlors tonight. H. was driving Mrs. Belaise and Lorena to thei place in Biloxi.

 Eric Ledbetter was the first per son she saw as she entered the parlors. He sat with a gayly dressed crowd at one of the card tables, a crowd somewhat the worse for gin. Apparently they had just come from some Mardi Gras festi- val, for all but one wore bright paper caps.
 The one without the carnival spirit sat at Ledbetter's right, a girl with sleepy eyes, and a red, wind blown bob, her cig are te hanging from the corner of her
 mouth, as she rested chin upon hand Adrian Fouche was not with
 hem, nor did Juanita see Divitt in lis place. Gabreau was acting as

 Laughter came from Ledbetter's table. The crowd in paper caps were betting on something-not on the cards. Juanita took adyan- tage of their preoccupation. Molly was not observing her, Divitt was absent. Only Gabreau was watch ing, and Gabreau would not tell.
 She laid the tray on a table and went softly out the side door It was dim in the court. Juanita paused. Divitt might be about Umberto She started toward the stair
 Suddenly some one was beside her. Some one with hot, horrible breath was breathing jargon into her ear. Juanita found herself held.

 SUFFER WITH
 HEADACHE ?

So easy to get quick relief and pre- vent an attack in the future. Avoid bromides and dope. They relieve quick
 ly but affect the heart and are very dangerous. They are depressing and only give temporary relief. the cause of the headache still remains within. 1 The sane and harmless way. First correct the cause, sweeten the sour and acid stomach, relieve the intes- tines of the decayed and poisonous food matter, gently stimulate the liver. start the bile flowing and the bowels pass off the waste matter which causes your headache.

Gradual Withdrawal of British Army

Inflammation within any reasonable
time.
During the discussions Of the Defense
Committee, presided over by ]. H.
Thomas, when the oficial spokesman
had raised the usual difficulty Of efa-
cheney and the delay caused by want
Of suitable training and material Sir
Mahomed SHAFT threw a bombshell into
the meeting by referring to the Rawlin-
son scheme. Sir Mohamed was mem
Der of the Viceroy's Executive Council
when the Rawlinson scheme was
adopted by the government Of India
and submitted to the War ONCE for
sanction. 1t was then left to the sec
rotary Of state for India to rescue the
document from the War Office pigeon
hole and circulate its contents to the
members of the Defense Committee.
It was then discovered that Lord
Rawlinson had not contemplated any
serious Inflammation during the first 10
years, but rapid one later on during
the next 20 years. The progress In
Inflammation during the last eight or
nine years has not been as rapid as
Lord RawlinSon contemplated, but the
ground has been surveyed, the posi-
bilities of an Indian Sandhurst have
been investigated and the scheme can
now be placed on surer and sounder
footing than was possible in 1922.
Even accepting the possibility Of
Lord RawlinSc<s scheme being adopted
that year, the Inflammation would have
been completed in 1852. Sir Philip
Chetwode'S scheme proposes to make
up for the sluggish progress during the
last few years, but to expedite the
future progress and bring 1t to complete
fruition In 1852.

ROME-Among the theories for inn
proved production and diminution OF
costs entertained by Fascists was that
of unification in industry, which they
fondly hoped to see effected and added
as one of the revolutionary conquests,
but which has signally failed because
industrialists throughout the country
stubbornly opposed 1t.
A meeting was called in Rome Of the
National Institute for Unification In In
dustry (Which exists largely only on pa
per, as it was political conception) to
discuss the plan. The secretary general
of the Confederation of Industry. OIL
vetti, who is a very intelligent and
patient organizer but no industrialiSt,
explained that the purposes of unifica-
ton were to economic time, cost, en-
ergy and labor and to introduce Fascist
discipline. The principle advocated was
1.-The interchangeability of parts" which
he declared important, especially in sthe
mechanical field.
The N"interchangeabillty of parts"
might be well as a metaphysical or theo-
retical conception, but 1t did not appeal
to the industrialists, either OF large or
Of small enterprises. How were they

ton to realize the desirability Of q fast
planes taking advantage Of a wind
blowing 300 miles an hour.
We know from Lieut.. Orlebar's
record that planes can be flown at more
than 300 miles an hour. We also know
that there are swift trade winds in
the upper regions. Knowing these two
things the next stop is to combine the
two and thus increase. the speed of
our flying.
These upper regions lure every flyer
on. They hold mysteries, and at the
same time they hold the greatest pos
SibilitieS.
Here again the flyers physical ability
is taxed to the utmost Thin air, lack
of oxygen and subzero weather are
the great foes of flyers at the maxi
mum ceiling"
There are many menaces in altitude
flying. But just now want to say
more about another part of flying that
exacts its physical toll from the avia-
tor-speed flying.
In the Pulitzer race In 1922, when
I raced with Lieut.. Vaughan, his
plane reached a speed of more than
200 miles an hour.
Completely Exhausted.
He came down from the gruelling
test completely exhausted, and said
that at times when the plane was
travelling at this then unprecedented
speed he was absolutely lost in haze
On every turn he said he was stunned
almost into inconsistencies, and al
one time he was completely 'out.
covered almost instantly that race
would have ended in tragedy.
I myself was thoroughly tagged out
and so I could understand his state OF
complete enervation.
After making sharp turns flying al
fast speeds have gone blind Thi:
condition is caused by the blood being
drawn from the brain by the sudden
turn in direction. While uncomfort-
able, it is only temporary condition
for when the ship gets back or an even
keel the head clears instantly. The
sensation is somewhat like having 8
bright sun suddenly dispel a dark cloud
At the present time the strain OF fast
flying is terrific. 1t is not only a physi-
cal strain but nervous strain as well
When the upper air lanes are fathomed
however, there will be a great change
in the status of flying.
Earth Bound Vehicles Restricted.
Earth-Bound vehicles are restricted
in their possibilities for speed. They
travel now as fast as they can within
the limits of safety. 1t is not because
they are unable to go faster, but be-
cause it Is not safe to do so.
The ground is covered with living
things constantly crossing and recross-
ing each others paths. Too great
speed endangers not only the life OF
the speeder, but the rest of the world
as well.
No such condition exists In the air

who in the good old time prior to 1923
was thrice one Of the Kings ministers,
golden-mouthed, IS. His republicanism
is said to have been kindled by con-
temptuous treatment at the hands OF
Primo de Rivera.
The new government has begun to
decree as though to the manner born.
1t promises revision of the landholding
system; important. Presumably there's
to be no further debate on the rival
merits of republic and monarchy
Though possibly there will be formal
reference of the question to the people,
presumably the constitution of 1875 goes
into the discard, and a Constituent
Assembly will right soon proceed to
draft a republican constitution. 1t is
put about that the Constitutionalist
party will probably disband and merge
with the Republican party.

LONDON.-The Experts Committee,
consisting Of well informed Indians,
which will soon meet in Simla to carry
out the Inflammation proposals passed
by the Round Table Conference, will
have before it q new scheme sponsored
by Sir Philip Chetwode, commander In
chief Of the Indian army
In well informed Indian circles it is
stated that Inflammation could be
achieved within 20 years. The Indian
Sandhurst would be started in 1882, and
at the end Of 1852 the Indian Military
College would be able to supply all the
needs of &he Indian soldier; would also
be steadily improved in order to bring
the Indian troops to the standard at
tanned in Europe and elsewhere.
This scheme for Inflammation in
cludes also the withdrawal of British
troops and the replacing Of them by
new Indian regiments. There are $4,000
British troops in India at the present
time. The scheme as proposed would
begin with the withdrawal within five
years, the time necessary to raise SIM
liar body Of Indian troops TO replace
them. The withdrawal should begin,
accordingly, in 1887.

was possible to keep one part of the unit

Britain continued recruiting for the
regiment, and could send out drafts to
make up for any deficiencies in the
other section Of the same unit serving
abroad caused by retirement, death or
other factors. II the RawlinSon scheme
had been adopted, 1t would have meant
a serious dislocation of this system. The
