loyalty she forgave it. She knew he had callously thrown her aside-he had done so even before he fled. anc had taken up with another girl in Victoria: but she forgave that too. If she had had the slightest knowl. edge of where he was, she would have flown to him in an instant.
 For such loyalty to be wasted on a vicious wolf seemed to Curt real tragedy. To judge by similar affairs 1T the Russians career. the man had some undeniable and strong power with women.
 As gently as an inquisitor could, he went on with his probing. He found out that the continued high tension of Karakhan's game had wearied him; that during his last three months in Vancouver he had fished lot in the Strait by way of recreation. and had gone weekend ing up the coast.
 On these trips he had used a plane. He owned none himself. but chartered one privately. Though a pilot went along. Karakhan usually handled the controls himself. He flew very competently. Miss Mathie- son said.
 HURTS pulse quickened at this in Oformation about the plane jaunts He was working on the theory that Karakhan had escaped by air. Train or auto was entirely too public for SO shrewd criminal. and he would hardly have taken ship away when a wireless flash could have inter cepted him in mid-ocean and caught him dead to rights.
 But a plane was swift: it took to tho trackless sky; in two hops a man could jump clear across the continent. The Silent Squad had found out about his flights but had set them down as ordinary business trips. Plainly they were not that This news that he was keenly inter. ested in the air and flyer himself strongly bolstered up the theory that he had made his getaway in a plane.
 After taking Helen Mathieson home, he jotted down the informa- ton she had given him. then hur- ried out to the Marlin residence and planned his next steps.
 The following day he interviewed several of Karakhan's acquaint- ances and three prominent aviators of the city. They could tell him al most nothing of value. and he

For the girl with a sensitive skin I think it unwise to apply either street or screen makeup without a foundation of cream.
 A not-too-heavy foundation cream is best for this purpose, applied after the skin has been cleansed thoroughly. Rub it gently before applying powder.

BEGIN HERE TO-DAY

JANET HILL breaks her en- gagemcnt with ROLF CARLYLE after learning he has been going out with BETTY KENDALL. a society girl and niece of . mem- Der of the company for which he
 works. Janet is secretary tO BRUCE HAMILTON, advertising manager of Every Home Maga- zinc, and Rolf Is employed in an advertising office. Janet Is stiIf
 much in love with Rolf but he has declared their engagement didn't 'mean anything 'and ac- cused her of not really wanting to marry him because she has inc sisted on postpOning the marriage until they have saved some money.
 Janet is lonely and unhappy. One night on street car she meets JEFFREY GRANT, young engineer who has recently moved to the roOming house where she lives. A few nights later MOLLIE LAMBERT, who lives across the hall, urges Janet to come on 'sbIind date" Janet, declines, then agrees when Mollic declares Janet should show some pride instead of mourning over q "twO-timer
 who let her down."
 Janet dresses hastily and Moiiie loans her coat. A call rom downstairs indicates that the two men are waiting.
 NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
 CHAPTER XIV
 Janet, hurrying down stairs, caught a glimpse of a mans tan topcoat. No there were two of them. A tan coat and a darker one. The taller of the two men stood back. The other slim, wiry, with dark hair and dark eyes = said, Hello, baby. o. K? Want you to know my friend, MT Mullins. Frank, this is Mollie, the girl friend"
 Mollie Lambert said, "Oh, MT Mullins, this is certainly pleas ure! AIS always talking about you aren't you, Al?" She turned to- ward Janet. And here's somebody else for you to meet! Miss Hill = MT Mullins. You know Al, don't you, Janet? No? Oh, excuse me. This is MT Schildner. Well. we didn't keep you boys waiting did we-?"
 Good-natured MolIie chattered on. Janet put her hand into the out stretched hand of the tall young man III Ln6 udFk COdL dho ootNJ ''How do you do."
 Her first glance had been reas- assuring. MT Mullins was, as Mollie had said, rather nice looking. He was tall, not fat but rather square Iy built. His light hair had a red dish cast and his eyes were an off shade of blue. The only thing Janet didn't like about his looks was the small, pale red mustache perched on his upper lip. A mus tacle makes some men look older and more dignified but for some reason this mustac11e had exactly the opposite effect. It made MT Mullins look almost juvenile, which was odd, considering his size. The nnustache was too small or too wide or something else was wrong with it.
 MT Mullins shook Janet's hand and said that he was certainly glad to Know her. Al Schildner cut in to oxclaim cheerily, "How about it? Are we all set? Then let's step on It."
 Mollie's "boy friend" wore his brown felt at a jaunty angle. He wau only a little taller than Mollie and no one in the world would have called him handsome. Still there was something engaging about his irregular features. He had a quick way of looking at the person to whom he spoke and his words came in short, jerking phrases.
 It was AIS car in which they were to ride. He called it "the bus" and ushGred them out of the house

in short order. By the time they were settled in the car---Mollie and Al in the front seat and Janet and her escort behind - Mollie was ad- dresisng MT Mullins as Frank" and telling him about the time the car stalled out on Hillcrest road and Al worked on it half an hour before he discovered it was out of gas, ,Mollie and Al both laughed about that.
 Janet didn't like the way MT Null Ins slipped his arm across the back Ftof the seat. She wanted to ask him fto move 1t but that too much im- portance. Instead she sat rather uncomfortably straight so that the arm barely touched her.
 Y .Say-", Mullins eyed her ap- provingly, "Pm glad you and I are going to have a chance to get &C., quainted. Yes sir glad I got in on this party. Looks to me as though this is going to be large evening""
 Janet Said, "Mollie told me you're from Spruce City" The words sounded prim and rather stitled but it was the best she could do. She had to say something to dis courage his obvious advances.
 Mullins laughed. You said it! I'm from there and a swell place it is to be away from! That's all that towns good for. Say, Spruce

 Sally herself was wondering if she had ever been that other wo- man. That girl was so far away she didn't like to think about her. That girl had ended by being contrite and being in love with Joe Raynor.

 That was bad line. Any play- wright would have struck 1t out. He knew 1t as soon as he had spoken it, and everyone in the room knew that he realized 1t.

PARIS SPRING MODES PAY
 ATTENTION TO FRIVOLITIES
BY JEAN PATOU Written for NEA Service

""Frfvoiities have be- come a very important part of wo- mems dress. This name has been given to the numerous objects which in my establishment l had placed in a special department which I called "The Futilities Cor ner."
 Though frivolities may be con- sidered as mere feminine caprices. a feminine caprice Is far from be- ing a futile consideration. Until recently this department in my house only existed in the capacity of something aside and quite of secondary importance.
 Woman's taste for accessories and her pleasure in acquiring a novelty are too great that I should disregard them, even though they may be termed caprices.
 This decision has also been mo- tivated by the fact that hitherto SVhta4CtGu SHG AGGG0S4Ht00 uC~ partment insufficient, end not really pleased me. Another ad- mission I must make Is that too often have I seen women with accessories totally unsuited to their dress.
 Simultaneous creation is the only way of obtaining a beautiful ensemble. Each time that a dress appears to me to call for an ac- cessory, the accessory will he studied with the dress and will no longer be an after-thought,
 A costume necklace of course, will never have the class and dis tinction of q real piece of jeweiry, with all consideration of work manship ai.d value naturally put aside, but in spite of this a cer- tain necklace, if created to &C., company certain dress, will cer- tainly be in harmony rather than in discord. On the other hand, an accessory must be independent and 1t therefore must not be too completely domesticated by the dress.
 My frivolities are. therefore, stamped with a certain air of freedom. One of the elements which renders them attractive and explains them, aside from the utility question. is the surprise that all novelties must evoke.
 Frivolities, without ever fall ing into extravagance of inter- pretation. must always possess an unexpected note either by their form or color or by the way they are worn, or. still further, where they are placed.

&5R YOUR CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton
0105y 5Y Nzz sEa17ez. zVc

If mother wants to know wha has to do is to look back and pon own mother when she was little.
 I know of no better method, b the way, of getting at the chil "underneath" than to analyze our selves in retrospect. Some parent have imagination enough to under stand their children without goini into history, but comparativel. few possess this ability. This othel way is open to everyone. .ta, | We might as Yourselves these | questions: "When was little fdid resent it or feel sorry when my mother reminded me of all she did for me and begged me to be good in order to pay that debt? Didn't usually feel that she fought" to be doing those things anyway and that I owed her nothing at all for 1t? .,, --s'-',- s'3' Obligation Resented
 "If she had left this 'tit-for- tat business out of it and just said firmly, You must do this because say so,' wouldn't have felt bet ter and obeyed more quickly? Or did I get tired hearing that too ? Didn't work better and obey bet ter if she just gave @ cheerful quick order and left herself out of 1t al- together?
 Besides, weren't there times when I wondered why I should do things. or not do them, just be- cause she said SO? Yes, I used to wonder sometimes, why my par- ents had so much authority over me even if they did bring me into the world"
 Try to Remember
 Perhap our thoughts may not fit into this picture. Perhaps we were different, because all children do not react the same, although with the same surroundings and the same type of parents they would resemble each other on the main points. However, that may be, to study ourselves and our thoughts and feelings when we were small will be of tremendous help. Of course we cannot remember much that happened before our fourth birthdays, so if our children are younger than that, we shall have to save those memories until later.
 We like to take out our box of crayons and color deftly the by gone years with sentiment. We like to think of being ever so kind to our parents and-of how we loved them. We have habit of lodging the fact that on many days they didn't count at all.
 Let's Ask Ourselves
 If we stop to think about that we would be less hurt If our own children occasionally take us too much for granted and see unap- preciative sometimes.
 Here is another point.
 Did we really appreciate how hard our mothers and fathers worked for us? Didn't we think it was exactly what they should do to keep us nicely fed and nicely dressed, to buy us books and bi- cycles, and do without things themselves so we could have more? Did we have any inkling of the work and sacrifice they put into us? Did we go about humble with gratitude watching for op- portunitics to pay back tho debt? To tell the truth we didn't--uo matter how much we loved them. Life consisted of incidents and not if virtues.
 Most mothers would find com fort. believe, in looking back over the old days. They would find that their seemingly thoughtless chill dren are not different from others, but are merely following the gem eral pattern of childhood.

RestfuI Sleep Bcgets Beauty

All sleep is not beauty sleep. You must have good bed, plenty of fresh air, covers that are warm enough but lightweights and be re- faxed to have the deep, dreamless sleep that begets beauty.
 Few persons realize just how i'm. portant a fiat, firm bed is. If youi bed rolls to the center and you sleep more or less cramped up how can you expect to arise in the morning feeling fresh and poppy
 Good box springs and q firm hair mattress should be your as- piration. There. is nothing about the house that deserves an output of money more than your bed. Of course 1t doesn't show, the way new lamps and curtains do. But your face and your energy will re- veal the benefit of having a first rate bed.
 The springs make more differ ence then your mattress, really. For it isn't how soft or how hard a bed is but how straight, that really counts. It Is your spine that Is affected by q bed out of line for eight hours straight running. how can you expect your nervous sys- tenn to work smoothly?

City is so dead"
 For the balance of the ride to Reigals' restaurant Janet listened to a description of Spruce City. It was a poor place in the opinion of Frank Mullins, who evidently re- garded Lancaster as far more de- sirable. He liked "a town with some life," he assured her. The people in Spruce City were dumb bells. They didn't know. what it was all about" Mullins converse tion was filled with such phrases
 He was still talking when they arrived at Reigals'. It was new place and Janet had never been there. The entrance was impress sive with a canopy leading from the curb to the doorway. They had to park the car on side street and walk back half a block, so some of this impressiveness was lost.
 Mollie caught Janets arm just before they entered. Having a good time?" she whispered.
 Janet smiled and nodded. She wasn't but there was no reason for Mollie to know that. Even if she were miserable she didn't want Mollie to know 1t. She had sworn to make the whole world believe that she was gay and care-free to- night!

ART AND SALVATION

The novel of the future must be moral gnd metaphysical. The inner experiences of every modern man. above all then. of every modern artist are moral and metaphysical in far more active and immed- fate sense than was true in an even recent past. Each must today seek his own salvation. The old roads are deserted and grass-grown. But it is of the essence of the artists nature. being not only himself but man speaking. that he can never disassociate himself from his fel- low men. Seeking to save himself he seeks to save them.
