his legs was kicking spasmodi-
cally like a knocked-out pugiliSt
trying to regain his feet.
The man on the carpet made
no sound. The kicking leg
Quieted down. In such a condi-
ton it would be a matter Of
minutes, rather Of seconds, be-
fore consciousness came back.
Leni Luneska made no outcry,
no exclamation of excitement.
Tell me what you want to do
now" she said in a muffled
voice, devoid of fear.
Cavanaugh took one deep
breath. The same hand that
had felled Mulrooney patted
Leni consolingly on the back.
Take care of him when he
comes to. Say as little as pos
sible. Tell him I went out the
back way. And don't worry"
Leni gave an understanding
nod.
I'll wait and won't worry"
she said out Of the depths Of
her courage.
She did not move from where
she was standing until Cava-
naugh had vanished into the
hallway. Only when he had
definitely become a fugitive did
she bend over Mulrooney.
MuIrOOney Receivers
The detective was breathing
jerkily as his lungs labored for
air. She found a pillow, rolled
him over and put it under his
head.
Mulrooney lay as though in
sleep. He was unconscious,
knocked out, but he was in no
pain and in no danger. Some
instinct told Leni that he was
all right because his breath
ing was improving.
There was an encouraging
flutter of his eyelids. In a min
ute or two he would awaken.
The longer he stayed uncon-
scious, the more time remained
for Cavanaugh to get away.
That was a terribly foolish
thing for Lucky to do, thought
Leni. 1t is all my fault. He
cannot come near me without
getting into trouble. am
mad about him and I know
he is mad about me. We are
both sinking in an ocean of
trouble yet my heart sings as
q lark above a meadow. I am
either a very good woman or a
very wicked woman. I do not
know which.
Looking at Mulrooney's face
which had been pale and was
now beginning to darken, Leni
wondered what Mrs. Mulrooney
would think if she could see
her husband stretched out in
this fashion. Poor woman!
Perhaps she lived in constant
terror because of her husbands
business.
The Mulrooneys, Leni de-
cided, were not bad people.
Even as much as she loved
Lucky, she could not find it
in her heart to think i'll of
the middle-aged man stretched
out upon her expensive carpet.
It was a hard life he lived
and his salary, probably, was
very small. Sometime I am
going to send Mrs. Mulrooney
Q nice present, she thought,
and something for the four
children, too.
Then, suddenly, Mulrooney
opened his eyes and knew
where he was.
It took him a few seconds
longer to remember what had
happened. Without any as
sistance from Leni, he got to
his feet. At the knees, how
ever he had a rubbery sensa-
ton.
"Where did he go?" were his
first words, slightly blurred.

with the Junior League crowd, be- cause he had attended such an af- fair in Memphis, there was no rea- | son to believe he would be in the audience tonight.
 They were inside now, standing in a long, wide hall. Joan's first quick glance took in rich rugs, tapestries, stauary. A bewildering array, of them. Then suddenly she felt more at home, noting the fine old portraits on the walls, the mel low woodwork and, beyond, book lined library walls.
 Barney was saying softly, Don't get stage fright. As if any of the people here really matter to you!" Joan followed a maid up the broad stairs and down cor ridor. The room they entered was paneled in ivory and the furnish ings were gray and blue. There were lavender draperies at the windows over soft cream curtains. Joan opened her makeup box and added a little more rouge to her lips. Her black mask lay be- fore her on the dressing table. Voices-gay, laughing voices f1oated up from the entrance halF downstairs. Guests were arriving, Joan could hear music, which meant that the orchestra was be- ginning the overture.
 The door opened and closed. Joan turned, her hand uncon- Sciously clutching at the mask. Barbara Courtney's amazed eyes met loans. What are you doing here? came Barbara's harsh query. And then, as her glance fell upon the mask in loans hand, she said, So you are the Jigsaw's Masked Singer!" .N
 "Yes." @
 Barbara was laughing. It was hysterical laugh without mirth in it. After Q moment she recovered her composure.
 You'll have to excuse me, Joan, but you took me by surprise. You see never dreamed you were sing ing in a cabaret. It's quite taken my breath away! And imagine meeting. you here in Bob Weston's home!"
 The blood surged to Joan's face. Whose home?" she asked.
 Don't tell me you didn't know!"
 The astonishment in loans eyes was more convincing than any words. Barbara saw that the other girl had come here by chance. Bob didn't know Joan was here. There was no reason for him to. know. Barbara opened the door carefully, saying, Glad I saw you, Joan" Then she closed the dor behind her.
 Outside Barbara lit a cigaret with nervous fingers. The mask was a saving factor-something to thank lucky stars for. Barbara had heard Joan sing at the JigsaW and never suspected that she had seen her before. There was no reason to feel alarmed now. Bob would never dream that the spec tacular singer was Joan, the girl he had known in Memphis.
 Barbara's lips set angrily. After all these months of combating the memory of Joan - which Barbara had long ago realized was the one thing between her and happiness to find the girls in Bob's home was almost too much. She would have liked to humble Joan if she had dared. But the girl had spirit. Barbara was glad she had, not re- vealed her feelings.
 It was just at that moment that the maid brought word to Joan that MT Blake was waiting for her.

Beauty Authority

"Will you please help a puzzled amateur?" asks Mrs G. C.. of Los Angeles. q bought a tissue cream last week and I've been using it, but it doesn't seem very effective. Would you suggest a stimulant, in- stead ?"
 believe that Mrs C.'s case is somewhat similar to the way many women feel when confronted with tissue creams. They are for the pur- pose of softening and lubricating the skin, preventing fine lines. A good youthifying tissue cream also contains some stimulating herb juices.
 A stimulant is usually a lotion It is for the purpose of rousing the circulation and making it easier for the skin to absorb the rich oils of your tissue creafn.
 Perhaps you have not used your tissue cream correctly. or have ex- pected it to be a cleansing cream as well. The creams really have separate functions. I would suggest that you look at the labels closely before you buy beauty article, and make sure that it is created specifically for the purpose for which you will use it.

The beauty of well chosen cos metics and clean dresses and coat will be lost on needless world unless you keep your accessories immaculate too.
 There's something pathetic about a nice winter hat that starts out a handsome hue, gets more dingy as the months roll Ky and ends up along in February hy being no particular color at all.
 Equipped with a little bottle oi cleaning fluid and a rough cloth or small brush, you can pre- vent any such disaster in your wardrobe.
 A hat should be brushed every day. and rubbed with cleaning fluid, inside and out, at least once week. Stretch the hat over the top of d double boiler or just hold it on your hand and rub it with the other hand. Anyway, get it clean.
 Gloves sometimes are neglected in the winter. Washable summer gloves nearly always are kept clean and white, but many women allow their black kid, capeskin or suede gloves to go all winter with out single cleaning.
 1t costs only ten or fifteen cents to have gloves dry cleaned. or you can rub them with cleaning fluid yourself. Turn your gloves wrong side out and air them in the sun occa- sionally. If your hands perspire. sprinkle powder in your gloves be- them out before ctaoishrdluuuun fore you put them on. Always blow in them and straighten then out before you put them away 1n | the glove box.

In this day of good books no one can go very wrong in selecting gifts for the children.
 would advise beginning now to browse around the book stands if you are going to give cooks for Christmas presentsl Don't wait until the second or third week or December and then rush in to q tired, bewildered clerk, your arms full of bundles, and say, T have to hurry. I want a book TOT d child of 4, a girl of 6 and boy Of 10. Oh yes, and the twins. l think I'll get each of them a book too.f
 Buy Books Ieisurely
 There is no nicer gift for any child than a book. And what is so worth while is worth spending a little time on, isn't it? Even if you don't select at once it pays to be- come friends with the volumes for children today. And then when you do finally say, "I'll take this one and that one,'' it will be a satis- faction to know that you have something especially suited to a particular child.
 To name the good books for children from to 16 would take more space that this column could stand three times over. can mere ly give an outline as general guide.
 In the first place it is wise to select a book for Q child that IS not over his head. If book IS beyond a child's understanding 1t will confuse him. And once he gets the idea that books are hard he is likely to set up wall against them altogether. I believe more children in the old days turned against books Tn general for this reason than TOT any other. Once a child sets up a phobia against books he is likely to keep it through life.
 Therefore it is wise to see that early books are very. very simple. and illustrated in such a way that the child can understand the pie lures clearly at a glance. Fortunat- ely the illustrations in most of to- days books combine the exquisite with the simple.
 The Time for Fairy Tales
 Little children always have and always will love stories of their animal friends, birds, toys, flowers. Or stories of other little children and their adventures.
 Fairy tales are not so likely to interest small tots, but from i've years on the craving for fairy tales clings. We never get over it.
 For boys. come the exciting stories of adventure, of courage and sportsmanship. of making things, of camp life, heroes, travels. And to- day we must include the great TO- mances of engineering and con struction. Historical romance and biography today are turned out to a new theme, and strange the child who would not love them.
 Girls like the same type of books as boys, but let me add that while girls love to read stories about boys, boys do not reciprocate so readily. There are many beautiful books written especially for girl appeal.

He says the Kindergarten is closed" "Yes," said Mrs John son, ''it was closed yesterday. Little Elizabeth Jones was sent home with rash yesterday morning and the doctor says it's measles, so Mrs May decided to close for a week or two until we see whether any of the other children develop symptoms. We don't want to start an epidemic.
 "Youye quite right" I agreed, "and 1t was wise of Mrs May to send Elizabeth home immediately Do you think it was necessary to close the kindergarten, though doc or?" continued Mrs Johnson. That all depends," I replied. We no longer close the regular schools in d case of that kind, for we feel that school children are better off in class where they can be watched for symptoms than running about at large, visiting movies and mix ing with crowds and so possibly spreading the germs of the epi- demic in question. But where pre-school children are concerned I believe I agree with Mrs May. Provided the mothers act sensibly, of course."

and simple, hOmely desserts should be chosen. The gravy always is an important feature of the dinner and nothing should be permitted to rival it's effect For example, creamed potatoes would be out of place since they would have no use for the delicious brown gravy, while plain boiled, mashed and riced potatoes act as ideal carriers for the gravy.
 All the fall vegetables combine we'll with pot roaSts. They may be cooked surrounding the meat or separately, as preferred. When cooked with the meat, the gravy becomes favored with the vege- tables; so unless a savory gravy is liked by all members of the fam fly, it's q safer plan to cook the vegetables separately.
 Pot Roast of Beef
 Three pounds of lean beef, 5 teaspoons salt, 1-2 teaspoon pepper, 2 tablespoons flour.
 Trim fat from meat and try out in heavy aluminium or iron kettle. Strain and return 2 tablespoons melted fat to kettle. Heat and when sizzling add meat. Brown on all sides, turning frequently. Care should be taken not to pierce with fork. When meat is brown all over, cover closely and cook over.a low fire for three hours or until meat is tender. If you have a kettle with a heavy. close-fitting cover no wa ter should be added. But if neces- sary to prevent burning add about one-half cup boiling wa t e r. Sprinkle with salt and pepper when meat has been cooking about 2 hours. When ready to serve re- move to hot platter and keep hot. Measure liquid in kettle and add enough boiling water to make 2 cups. Return to the fire and bring to the boiling point. Stir in flour stirred to smooth paste with 8 tablespoons cold water. Cook, stir ring constantly for five minutes. Pour into gravyboat and serve.
 Veal is delicious pot roasted this way.

 Barney was standing by the mantel one arm resting against it. When Joan spoke he looked up, his eyes meeting hers, unsmiling.
 You mean you really want the wedding soon?"

 Lots of people do," said Barney. even less fussy by marrying in the clerks office.'
 He had said, "get it over with!" Then he must suspect how she was feeling. Barney, who gave so generously and received so little in return.
