Phil strolled to the fire place and watched the flames for a min- ute after. the others had left the room. Joan, studying the clean-cut profile, the easy grace of the long strong body, had a sudden sense of loneliness. She would miss Phil, would miss him frightfully, if he went away!
 But he wasn't going away She relaxed. He would still be there. She was the one who could not make up her mind. If she found that her Venetian romance was just a dream whoSe romantic colors hadn't faded quickly enough there would still be Phil!
 "Stop being a fool" she told herself, blue eyes on the mans fire lighted profile. If yoV want Phil why don't ,you take him?" | But she couldn't. Not with the persistent ghost of memory hov- ering in her mind. Not with half- remembered words running around her heart again. But suddenly she had a feeling, now that reality was coming, that David Harter didn't matter as much as she had thought | ..T
 that he did.
 But she had to be sure! Perhaps | 1t was the excitement of thinking that maybe he had tried to find her that was giving her this new con- fidence. If she learned that he hadn't, she might De haunted by old memories again. But her eyes shone with a brighter, gayer blue. and her voice was little more vibrant.
 Phil turned from the fireplace.
 Going to marry me, Joan?" his voice was curiously detached. Asking me again, PhilY" she said. T can't answer yet. l don't know"
 "Of course. Just as you say" He even smiled a little. But it's a thing that one usually knows"
 "I know 1t is. But I'm not like other people then, I honestly don't know! I like you loads. l even love you-but I'm not sure if it's enough. Oh, don't know. I'm just not swept away"
 Don't be so mournful about 1t, Joan. After all, it's no crime. Be- cause somebody else gave you a few more romantic thrills. you're waiting for the grand tumult to start all over again. Is that 1t? Well, it's your problem"
 "Give me another week, won't you, Phil?" she asked. After all, you've waited around ever so long now, a few more days one way or tho other can't ,-matter?" | Another week?" his mouth was set and his chin was stubborn. Tt would be the same old story. Either you want me or you don't. And you should know"
 i Joan sat thinking quietly. She did want bIm--drcadfully--but she wanted someone else, too. And when you could want two people you probably didn't care enough for either of them, she told herself. But she might as well play safe. it would be dreadful Co wako up. and find that Phil was gone forever, Just when nhe discovered that ho mattered rather dreadfuiiy. He was safe, secure, devoted. fig wouldn't iet her slip away. Hn would come after her.

ward the saddle that overlooked Blind River at swinging gallop. His slender rider let him have his head until they reached the Blind River trail, then she headed him south, straight up the mountain: She remembered q high point over looking the slope from which she could check the movements of the posse.
 Why she rode out to watch the hunt was not clear in her mind. She could not get back to camp with news as soon as the men would get in. Something led her to take her stand and watch. It might have ben morbid curiosity of fem mine instinct. Whatever 1t was Do- ma obeyed 1t and pulled her mount to a halt on jItting ledge that over looked the slopes below. A litle meadow hedged in by heavy scrub growth lay at her feet. Frahtre down the slope she could se men riding around heavy patch of timber. The ground was rocky and tangled with thick growth and connected with the tin Der directly below her. Men witt rifles crawled from bush to busf | ever closing circle around tho rocky ambush.

What's wrong now, Sally I said as she settled herself beside me.
 Look at my nose," she demand ed.
 I looked. "It's a nice nose, Sal ly, well shaped--yes, l see what you mean, it's a bit oily"
 "Yes," exploded Sally. "and 1t shines, and why?"
 Well" I began, If you really want to know I can tell you Vari- ous reasons for oily noses. Sluggish general circulation for one thing, lack of proper elimination and in- correct diet for another. These are fundamentally opposed to a live active skin. Perhaps you have been eating too much rich foods, Sally

GLORIFYING , YOURSELF
By Alicia Hart

Anyone will tell you that rain on white lilacs has a certain rC mantle way of it's own. It isn inst to please the eye, either, tnat yioiets are placed in round piue bowls. Perfumes have always nao an enohantment. Cleopatra knew aIl about them in the days when she was cooking Mark Anthony 70 finger longer on. the banks of the Nile, and every woman since nus valued them.
 However, there is an art to their use. First of all, choose 8 per- fume that is suitable to you. one famous perfume-maker places drop of several fragrances on the wrist of the purchaser. one py one the scents disappear until on- iy one remains. That is the one that is in tune with her vitailty' that reacts to her skin, he has dis- covered. It Is the one that sne should use, he says.
 Never buy a perfume because you have been haunted by it's ap- peal when worn by somebody else. Try 1t out to see if 1t is going 10 cooperate with you as effectively as 1t does with the other person:
 However, you have choice or the types of perfume that you want. There are occasions which demand something exotic. If your hair is being worn in Q startling Iv severe fashion with an evening gown that sheathes you like a sii- yer suit of mail, you won't want the same perfume that you wpuid choose for a clinging gown in nya- cinth blue.
 Perfume never shpuld be used on clothes. Place a drop behind each ear. Touch your lips with a suggestion of II. Put another drop | in the warm place at the hollow of your throat. The scent IS warmer. softer, more glowing
 when 1t comes from your flesh. 1 Be careful, too, not to. use too
 much. When an odor Is strong
 no matter how lovely 1t may be, | 1t defeats it's own purpose. TOO many roses in a room have a fun- | ereal odor, you know.

The NOse-It Shall Not Shine

Your skin has q tendency to oil mess although it's quite normal when you take care of 1t. But even small indiscretions in diet will off, ten cause oiliness, especially if the pores are Q little relaxed.
 Leaving cream on an oily nose all night Is bad too. And powder ing over and over during the day without cleansing the skin with q lotion or cream Is bad. And of course, powder never did and never will correct an oily nose. It will cover it up temporarily, but It will not cure the relaxed condition which causes the excess oil. Corrective methods vary, but the essential thing to do Is to dis cover one which will do for your nose-whatever is necessary In the way of tightening up the pores and regulating the oil supply. Friction of some sort is good. When you wash with beauty grains rub the paste gently on the nose to stimu- late circulation and encourage the skin to act normally. Follow with a skin toning lotion to soothe the skin and close the pores.
 "rhen, Sally, 1 recommend that you finish with that most inter- esting preparation, liquidine. It's an astringent lotion that acts d. rectly on the pores, refining them overcoming oiliness and the shine which so frequently accompanies ofliness. Applied just before make up it gives pure mat tone to the skin and makes the powder ad- herent. Incidentally, liquidine Is also splendid for cleansing the face and neck for removing stains"
 That's a wonderful lesson, and I'm all cheered up. I shall profit by it too. Just wait and see," said Sally as she danced away.

 odd tricks are the tricks won
 after the declarer's book. The book
 is six tricks. A player is entitled to score for all the odd tricks that
 he can make.
 | However, only the odd thicks bid
 for are scored below the line >or | towards game. The others are
 premium points-if you bid one no trump and make two no trump,
 you have made two odd tricks.
 The first odd trick counts 30 points, the second 40 points.
 AS you bid one no trump, the first odd trick is scored by you as 30 points below the line, or towards game. The second odd
 trick, in this case, while 1t would
 be the first overtrick, is scored at
 40 points and is scored above the
 line or as premium points. | One bad feature, of course, In | this law, is that it would be possi- ble for you to bid one no trump on three consecutive hands and have a score of only 90 points toward game. The points required for game are 100.
 
 When the contract is doubled,
 be careful not to become confused.
 Doubling multiplies by two the bid trick value, but overtricks doubled
 have an independent value as ex- plained above.
 For example, if you bid one no trump are doubled, and make two l no trump, you would receive one odd trick doubled, and as the first odd trick at no trump Is 30 points, doubled 60 points, you would score this 60 points below the line or towards game.
 You have made one overtrick, and if you are not vulnerable, this doubled overtrick is worth 100 points, while if your side is vul- nerable, that overtrick is scored at
 200 points above the line or as
 premium points. If you had been fortunate enough to make three no trump. you would still score the 60 points
 below the line, but you would re- ceive credit for two doubled over- tricks. These would be scored at 100 points each, not vulnerable, or 200 points vulnerable above the
 line or as premium points. However, while you have made three no trump, you bid only one
 no trump, and therefore are not entitled to the game.
 The doubled or redoubled trick
 value is the same regardless of whether you play the hand at suit
 or no trump. while if playing the contract undoubled, the value of
 the overtricks depends upon the bid trick value.
 If you play the hand at hearts
 or spades undoub1ed, your over tricks will count 30 each, while if you play the hand at diamonds or
 clubs undoubled, your overtricks
