CHAPTER FIVE
Outside it was drizzling, Pa
tricia reached Eileen Sycott's
apartment breathless, rang the
bell. A maid answered the
door. AS the girl entered the
living room, a tall young man
y In evening clothes rose from
an easy chair. He was alone.
Patricia hesitated, light falling
upon her hair, her eyes in
tent, almost searching, her
lips slightly parted. To herself
she seemed to be in a dream.
She knew this man-it was
hot that she recognized him
from a photograph-she knew
him; she believed that she
had always known they were
to meet in just this way. For
q moment the two stood look
ing at each other. Something
magical seemed to steal into
the room; some magic seemed
to hush the world, so that
the traffic on the Avenue be-
low pulsed family, rhythmically,
like the surf on a quiet day.
The man spoke first
"You must be our fourth"
he said. And then quickly,
not very steadily, 'I-somehow
I didn't think you'd be like
this"

quite naturally then she told
him about the photograph. It
never occurred to her to evade
his question. She hardly real

Names Not Revealed
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Would it be possible for you
to give me the name of the girl
who wrote in today's paper
about her elopement? The mo-
tive and the explanation quite
fit nv sister, and I would like
to know if possible, or have
YOU send me part of the let

BROTHER.
I'm sorry that I am not
able to grant your request to
reveal the identity of the writer
of the letter or to show you
her handwriting but you will.
I am sure, understand that
there is to me a sacred rela-
tionship between the writer's Of
the letters to this column and
myself. In the years in which
/ have conducted this column
I have never revealed the iden-
tity of the writer of a letter,
nor have I ever used a "reap
name, either in the body of the
letter, or in the signature.
I feel very strongly, very
strongly, that I have no moral
right to reveal a name or an
identity. And I am sure that,
on second thought, you will
agree with me that this would
be an impossible thing for me
to do. You do understand. :.

Late Fashion Flashes

It isn't easy to do something
different with a wrap of black

is much originality in a lovely

white fox, the fur being used
also to edge the short sleeves.

Advice For
The love|orn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Compliments Turn to Insults
Dear Miss Fairfax:
go with a girl whom I like
very much, and from certain
little things I'm led to believe
she likes me. But whenever I
go out with her and pay her
compliments on her appear
ance and things like that, she
right away turns them around
and pretends they're insults.
She likes to dance and I
don't, therefore she runs around
with dancing boys, and when
1 ask her about it she says
she doesn't. My friends who
know her say I should give her
up, as she is giving me the
well-knoWn run around" I'm
in a terrible quandary. Should
I? B. T.
Girls often turn and twist
compliments just to be thought
clever and amusing when all the
time they eat them alive. Don't
take this little trick too seri-
ously. And, my boy, why don't
you learn how to dance? It's
the most delightful of exercises,
makes you graceful, gives you
poise and should not be ne
elected.
1 don't blame the girl friend
for going out with boys who
dance. It's only natural. Go
and do likewise, and be sure
you have a good teacher.
She Loves Soldier Boy
Dear Miss Fairfax:
My boy friend and I love
each other, but he only makes
a small salary, as he is in the
Army. We wonder if we could
live on the small amount, about
$25 per month. I am very
saving. He is 25 and I am %.
He is an awfully good boy and
is willing to get married if I
think we can get by on that
amount. 1 am working now
but will lose my job if marry.
What is your advice?
WORRIED.
You know, of course, that
your soldier sweetheart will
have to get the approval Of his
superior officer before he mar
ries. Granting this, married
privates usually have their
wives live as near the reserva-
tions as possible. If they take
their meals at home, they are
allowed a small sum for ra-
tions in addition to their pay.
Supplies may be bought at the
commissary much cheaper than
at ordinary shops.
And so, Cupid is recognized
by soldiers, but their wives
often have to help out with a
job, or part-time work. There's
no denying it's a struggle, but
many have made the grade.
AS enlistment is only for
three years, why not wait till
that time is up, as you're both
in the early twenties? Mean
time tell the young soldier to
take advantage of any voca-
tional training or study courses
that might be open to him at
the post. It will make it
easier to get a job with a big
ger pay envelope. And you, my
dear, save all you can for the
happy day.

Helpful Hints for
Housewives

Scrub your floors with solu-
ton of hot water and salt be-
fore you lay your rugs. After
the rug is down, sprinkle weekly
with salt. You will find that
this is a wonderful preventive
for rug moths.
Wrap your silverware in dark
flannel and it will hold it's
luSter much longer than it usu-
ally would.
If you have a darn just above
the heel of your shoe top. sew
a small seam at the bottom Of
the heel of the stocking. It
will bring the darn further
down and hide it in the shoe.
Use a piece Of dampened cot
ton for picking up small pieces
of broken glass. 1t is better
than brushing, because it will
get every little slicer.
Moisten cigarette ashes with
water and apply on alcohol
stain, rubbing it gently. This
process will remove all traces
of the stain. When polished it
will return to original luSter.
Apply ordinary liquid shoe
polish to your leather chairs.
When the polish dries the chair
will look like new.

Something new is a gauntlet

DIR. Bisch's Daily Diet Hint

DR.. BiSch's Daily Diet Hint
Although nausea and even
vomiting may accompany severe
headache, especially the type
designated "migraine," a suf-
ferer may readily come to the
conclusion that the cause is
some special food he has eaten.
AS a result there are those who
eliminate one article of diet
after another. Usually, how
ever, the food has little or
nothing to do with the ques-
tion. What needs correction,
as a rule, are general living
habits as we'll as emotional con-
flictS.
The Washington times., 1933-06-24

equals in volume the air
breathed in.
The real waste must be made
up by the food that Is eaten.
Hunger is a fairly good guide as
to the amount that is needed
although a knowledge of food
constituents (proteins, fats,
starches and sugars) is neces-
sary in order that all the bod
lily requirements may be sup.
piled.
Meat contains protein in q
highly concentrated form. Pro-
tein is also to be found in peas
and beans, milk, etc. Fat,
starch and sugar foods are
easily identified. No single food
consists of one kind of food
value alone except fats and oils.
A mixed diet is therefore essen
tial.
Although the human ma
chine gets exercise, so to speak,
simply while it is functioning,
it has been found that variety
of muscular exercise Is highly
beneficial to the general well
being Of the body.
Since the nervous system is Q
truly coordinating apparatus
no tiniest part of the body not
being connected up somehow
with a nerve-it is likewise
necessary to divert the mind.
which is the organ which one
might say controls and directs
all the rest.
In other words, you cannot
allow the human machine to
stand idle as you would an
automobile. The body is alive
and, as a living thing, it must
function continuously for best
results.

KAHN TELLS SENATE
OF ANNUAL CUSTOM
IN SELLING STOCKS
Private Banker Always Record
ed Losses But Asserts
Law Is Poor One

Washington, June 29.-(P)-Testi-
flying that sale Of stocks at the end
Of the tax year was sort Of an an
nual CUSTOM; Otto H. Kahn, senior
partner Of Kuhn, Loeb & Company,
recommended to senate investigators
Thursday REPEAL of the capital gains
clause Of the tax law.
Kahn said the clause made the gov
eminent gamble" on the prosperity
of the nation and caused the market
to be depressed at the end Of the
year.
Senator Barley Dem., KY said
Kahn was the first witness to tell
Of bear raids" on the market.
Kahn said he sold stock to men,
bers of his family at the end Of 1880
as we'll as other years.
He testified this to the senate
banking committee after telling that
securities he sold In December, 1880,
were re-acquired from his daughter
three months later, though the ex-
change was dated the following day.
The senior partner In Kuhn, Loeb
& Company said he could not re-
member how often he had sold stock
at the end Of a year or whether he
bought the stock back each time.
Kahn said the stocks sold in De-
cember, 1880, to his daughter, were
sold at a loss Of $4,000 which he
deducted in making out his income
tax return.
Government agents commended the
stock was bought back in less than
30 days and therefore was not de-
ductible.
Hoping to complete the present
hearings by Friday night, the COM
mittee announced the current inquiry
would be confined to the income tax
evidence and one or two large Kuhn,
Loeb financial operations.
Decision to resume the investiga-
ton in the fall, with the date fixed
tentatively for Oct. 3, quieted fears
OF some that the inquiry was to be
choked off or hurried through.

''The textile mills are at nearly full

as to whether they can find sufficient
