Chapter 81

Laurel jumped up from the
little table in the cocktail bar
and went towards the lockers in
the passage, to greet Bruce
Harvey.
Hello. You here?" She
showed her frank delight in
meeting him.
"I've just come in from a
round of golf" He was hand
some in a tweed knicker suit
of a light grey that matched
his eyes, and accentuated the
little streak of grey over either
ear that was so attractive.
Laurel at the nom ent
thought him the best-looking
man she had ever seen. Her
heart beat with excitement.
Come on in and join us.
You know Roger SartoriS?"
Bruce Harvey nodded over
her shoulder at Roger.
"We've met. Sorry I have to
leave. Needs must, you know,
when the patients are waiting"
"As busy as all that" Her
voice rose in disappointed in

He smiled at the young girl.
She was still flushed from her
battle at ping pong, plus her
second gin sWizzle. HatlesS,
with tousled hair, her pretty
eyes alight with eagerness, she
was a charming picture.
You're the elusive pimper-
mel, I do declare. Full of good
works! I don't believe you're
human!"
SAY, humane" he supple
mented, still smiling at her.
She wore a blue dress with
a lemon-colored top to it, and
a gaily-patterned blue and vel
low scarf.
Gipsyish she looked just
now and, as Roger
had assured her, "devilishly at
tractive."
She knew it. Knew her
charm. That put Bruce Harvey
on his mettle.
He Wants Laurel
Tonight he would be here,
dining with her mother.
Would Laurel be among the
party? He wanted that. Want
ed to dance with her. A queer
little electric thrill ran through
his veins as he stood facing
the girl.
Her look was like challenge
flung at him. Sort of a "dare."
He had the queerest impulse to
grab her here and now in the
corridor and kiss her

Many requests come to this
department for information con-
cerning special brands of infant
foods.
In general, it may be said
that there have been great ad-
vances in the methods of Scien-
tific preparation of these prod
ucts. Twenty years ago they
were quite generally condemned
by physicians, but so great has
been the improvement in their
contents and nature that all of
them are now acknowledged
to have a place in special cases.
Before anything else, it
should be re-emphasized that
the best food for a baby is
tract by giving ABB two club
tricks, one diamond trick and
one spade trick. AS it was, Y
won one spade trick with his
Ace; the defenders won a single
trick in that suit, and 2
trumped the third spade lead,
giving him one trick over his
contract.

An opening bid OF 1-No
Trump seemed to show AS
distributed strength better than
1-Club would, so he bid the
No-Trump over rs pass. Ly-
ing back of A, the powerful
holdings of Y called for an
informatory double. B passed.
z held just about the strength
that an informatory doubler
expects his partner to have in
order to fulfill a contract of
two. He was not justified in
making an unnecessarily high
response, but he did feel that
one or the other of his red
suits might obtain a partial
score, probably even a game,
provided he happened to strike
his partners best suit. If z
at once bid 2-Hearts, even if
Y raised the declaration to g.
Hearts, z should. not venture
going game. But if z could
show both of his suits it
might be that Y's cards plus
a bit of luck would yield
game. z bid 2-Diamonds. A
passed. Y shifted to Ono
Trumps, as z had thought
possible. Then z bid 3-HeartS,
which A passed.
1t seemed clear to Y that his
partner held five diamonds and
only four hearts. In case z
had just two cards of each
black suit, there should be lost
only two black tricks; presum-
ing that A held both missing
aces and both missing kings,
there were fair game chances,
provided z held in the two
suits that he had shown several
lower honors. It did not seem
reasonable that z would dare

SHOPPING---With Alice and Eve Iyn

We don't mean blomers. And
we don't mean step-ins-they're
really nothing but half of a
chemise, detached! We had an
idea that more women were
wearing real regulation pantieS
than any other kind of lingerie.
So we took ourselves downtown
to see whether we were right.
And we were.
Why So Popular
We've illustrated these par
ticular three panties because,
from watching women buying
silk lingerie, we've decided
they're about the most desir-
able panties to be had. You
can see from the sketch how
beautifully each one is fitted,
all by self band tops. And
all buttoned at the side. You
can see they're all of medium
length, and so simply trimmed
that even the lace-encrusted
pair looks tailored! But one
thing you can't tell from the
sketch helps account for a lot
of their popularity-so We'll give
away the secret. It's the jan
uary prices.
Woven Dots
The panties on the left are
made of a new radium silk
you'll love. A radium silk that's
woven with little pin dots in
contrasting color-blue or pink
on tea rose. The woven thread
is fast in color, and what's
more, you needn't fear it will
ever ravel. That colored seal
loped binding matches the dots.

air. And the price. is a little

chorused Mac and Tom.
Ed sat on the divan with his
arm around Daisy and his head
on her shoulder. He was drunk.
The party was in full swing.
There we're dozen people
there, including Mike Cholo,
rat and killer and erstwhile
dope-shover. He was standing
in the corner, darkly watching
Daisy and Ed. Someone had
persuaded Kiki Edwards to put
on a dance and several were
clapping and pounding as she
writhed and twisted to the
radio jazz. .

muttered Ed, trying to bite
Daisy on the ear. Lolita

The Big Coup
Daisy laughed. She was wise
enough not to question. She
wanted to see Ed make money
she planned that when he
could make killing they
would go away together, and
she wanted to get out of the
realm of danger and get him
out too-hut Daisy was practi-

Coin take the two hun-ed

Cholo brought the drink.
Daisy winked at him. When
Ed had taken it, Cholo helped
the girl lift him to his feet.
His hair was disheveled and his
tie was twisted around in back
of his collar.
Mikes my frien'," cried Ed.
"I want everybody to know
Mixes my frien'." He put his
arm around Cholo's shoulder.
The latter made a sickly at
tempt at smiling. ....
Cholo and Daisy led him into
the bedroom. He sank down on
the bed. Daisy made a motion
to Cholo and he nodded and
walked out. She began to
stroke Eds hair.
Don't you want me to take

preston on his face.
