THE MURDER OF THE NIGHT CLUB LADY"

plain she now wished to turn
the talk back to her own pur.

Nearly all large rubieS are

rambled on. But this one is
virtually flawless. It is even
more beautiful than the famous

AS If her words were the cue
to Father Time, a bell began to

signal for noise. The remaining
midnight strokes were obliter-

Lola Carewe breathed deeply
and looked away with an angry
little wrinkling of her brows.
Her fingers drummed inef-
fectually on the table. Although
she had entreated him to join
her, Lola seemed already ir-
ritated at the presence Of this
unruffled, deep-eyed man who
was New York's police chief.
He was so much the master of
the situation - and he would
not play the courtier to her
charms. Neither her beauty
nor the mysterious preamble
had provoked in the commits

revel grew more boisterous. We
could only sit and wait until a
fanfare of clarinets and saXo-

of the New Year, and the chari-

"And what is it you do fear?"
resumed Colt, his glance leaving
the dancers and lingering on the
ruby.

She glanced rapidly at our
faces, appraiSing the effect Of
this remarkable announcement.
Yet Thatcher Colt expressed
neither shock nor surprise. AS
If her news had proved Of the
flimsiest inconsequence, he was
negligently lighting a cigarette.
But Vincent Rowland's mouth
hung in a haggard arc and
Dougherty was pop-eyed.
"You mean" gasped the Dis
trict Attorney, that they have
put you on the spot?"
Lola Carewe looked genuinely
taken aback.
"I do know whom you mean
by they"
"Never mind" rumbled
Dougherty. "You do believe
someone intends to take your
life?"
THAT is true. I feel that I
am doomed-unless Mr.. Colt
can save me-"
Dougherty turned his over
large blue eyes to Colt, who
continued to gaze unseeingly
out at the dance floor.

How's This?
Corns Lift Out
with Fingers-No Pain!
NO Pain!

Thanks to a discovery made from an
imported product your foot troubles
may be quickly ended.
Ice-Mint as this preparation iB called
is said to shrivel up hard cornS soft
corns or corns between the toes so that
they can be lifted out easily with the
fingers. It's wonderful. Think Of 1t:
only a touch or two Of Ice-Mint and
real foot-joy is yours.
There is not one bit OF pain OF sore
ness when applying 1t or afterwards
and 1t doesn't even irritate the skin.
If your feet are inclined to swell or
puff, or If you have cracked or bleed
ing toes, it will draw the inflammation
right out and quickly heal the sore
and tender places. 1t is the real secret
of fine. healthy feet and is greatly APP
preciated by women who wear high
heel shoes and by men who have to
stand all day. Try it. Just ask in any
Drug store for Ice-Mint and learn for
yourself what solid foot comfort really
is. There IL nothing better.

IT is now easier to dress well than
ever before. SmartneSS has become
accessible to all women, poor and rich.
Good clothes are Obtainable for modest
prices everywhere. But do not mistake
the situation and be led to buy just
because you see good things being sold
at attractive prices. If a dress is not
one that suits you and matches your
type, corresponding in some subtle, in
deflnable way to your own personality,
it will be very costly even if it were
given you free, for it will deprive you
of asserting your very precious right
Of dressing in your own individual way,
and expressing your personality through
this particular medium, the dearest OF
all to a truly feminine woman.
Dressing can give quite as much
Joy and satisfaction to a woman as
writing poetry to a poet, or painting
to an artist, or chiSeling to a sculptor
Do not let anything come between you
and the right to experience this joy
Insist, first of all, on fit, appropri-
ateneSs, simplicity and character. Let
other specifications fall for the time
being into the background, while you
focus attention on these and then see
what a difference will result in your
appearance.

PdriSidn Designer.

THAT a dress should fit well. be
appropriate to its surroundings,
as simple as these surroundings
i permit and stamped by charac-
ter are the most important req
ulSiteS for being Smartly attired that l
have ever set down. If you have these
you may go far, and without them the
way will always be set with obstacles.
These DO the pioneering and make the
way easy for all that follows. These
lay foundation strong enough to sup
port anything you build afterWard. All
colors, all lines all fabrics can be i'm
posed, once you are able to give them
the authority of perfect fit, appropri-
ateness, simplicity and character.
BecomingneSS Is a secondary conSld-
Grafton in comparison with these, Tor a
gown cannot be unbecoming with these
qualities to dignity it. And If 1t does
not make its Wearer beautiful, 1t VIII
certainly make her look distinguished,
which is the more valuable and the
more to be desired, since that state
lasts longer than the first mentioned.
You have seen queens dress in a
manner that was not strictly in keep
ing with the current styles. The quaint
bonnets of Queen Victoria are known
to every mind, and SO are the equally
unusual toques and turbans OF the
present Queen Mary. So were thelT
dresses correspondingiy different.
x x x X
4 ND still these women, and the many
1 = others who like them dress lnde-
pendently, are smart in their lndlVld-
ual way. Smart in a grand way that
suits them and the lives they lead, and
far more deep-rooted and dignIled
than mere pretintess and momentary
effectiveness might be. The reason Is
that their clothes have the most I'M
portant elements-fit, appropriateness,
simplicity and character.
What an insignificant matter, beside
these, would be the mere substitution
of a color or fabric? If. instead OF
velvet, broadcloth or satin is used
what difference does it make? If the
dress be gray or white instead of black
or blue, what importance has this
compared with the principal features
mentioned?
The truth is that have set down
the things that really. matter most
and I can assure you that during the
long wears l have spent making ano
designing dresses for Partisan women
I have encountered all too many who
late in life. discovered that all along
they had been giving first attention
to the things which mattered least o.
not at sll.
So many women are fascinated by G
new color or a new material, and that
