ut is only fair that you
know" Gerstenfield continued,
relentlessly. when a man
feels as deeply about a woman
as I do about you-that man
has rights that cannot be de-
MED. When I talk like this to
you, I'm breaking down every
thing that I've built up around
myself. I'm like a soldier throw

He paused and Leni at
tempted to speak, but found her
throat tight.
She stood gazing at him for
nearly a minute. Above her
misty eyes the finely penciled
arch of her eyebrows drew to-
gether. She was scarcely
breathing and her lips trembled

found words.

that you love me. %"
She looked at him in amaze
ment and saw a man that was
almost ugly.
For the first time she took
stock of him in the matter of
appearance. He loked thin al
most i'll. Under his exceptional
eyes the skin was white and
blush. There were lines in his
face as though etched by acid.
Yet he was not old. Forty at
the outside, perhaps 35.
II don't know anything about
love-" he said, harshly abrupt.
"I'm ungodly tired. I've been
tired for twenty years. There's
something about you that rests
me. I don't even feel desper-

when I saw you up there on
that screen it was the biggest
kick I ever had in my life.

Slowly Leni began to forget
herself-began to forget Lucky
Cavanaugh-as unconscious pity
for the man showed in her
face.
8 Maternal Instinct
There was something shame
full and embarrassing in his
plight.
She had known many men
and seen them suffer but she
had never seen a strong man
reveal his weakness before. It
was q sorrowful thing to see
his self-power melt that way.
No woman ever before, Leni
was certain, had wrenched
such a confession from him.
His own sufficience, his over
coming of all soft sentiment.
had been his proud flag flying
at the masthead.
The thing for her to do, Of
course, was to push him away
rudely.
That was what a true-hearted
woman would be supposed to
do.
But even in Hollywood,
women are still a prey to a
weakness dating back to the
beginning of the race. It be-
gan to stir in Leni's breast,
gently and kindly and in

Gus, overwhe elming g quality
known as the maternal instinct.
Gertstenfield stood motion
lessly before her, emptied of all
that he could say in words.
From force of habit, he snapned
up his wrist and looked at the
watch upon it. He was due
back on the lot.
This was the Hollywood Of

The Lady'S Privilege

The Lady'S Privilege
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Is it proper for a young lady
to extend her hand when she is
being introduced to a young
man, or should she wait until
the young man extends his?
D.
It is the young lady's priv
ilege of extending her hand if
she wishes to shake hands with
the young man who is being
introduced to her. The young
man waits for her to do this,
and should not extend his hand
first.
But, of course, it is not neces-
sary for her to shake hands
when a man is being introduced
to her. 1t is correct, if she
wishes, but it is not necessary,
and, unless there is some special
welcoming to the introduction,
usually the woman bows and
says How do you do?" without
shaking hands.

In a cabaret, is it proper for

heart lnVOlVemeIlC.
Persons with kidney disease,
no matter what its variety,
should lead as simple a life as
possible. Water should be
taken freely so as to wash out
the kidneys, so to speak. Lem
onade may help to stimulate
the urine flow. Alcohol in all
forms should be avoided.
Care should likewise be taken
of the food intake and the state
of the digestion. Red meats
and other articles of diet rich
in protein may have to be re-
duced in amount. Just what
the patient should or should
not eat is, however, largely a
problem for the physician in
charge to solve. Worry, ex-
citement and excesses Of all
kinds should likewise be elin1i-
mated.
Even when the kidney suf1
ferer begins to feel better he
must not become careless in
following the regime outlined
for him. Disobedience of the
doctors orders often proves
costly.
DR.. Bisch's Daily Diet Hint
No person should ever at
tempt to feed a typhoid patient
without following closely the
directions of the attending ply
sician. For a mistake may
actually prove fatal. AS a rule,
of course, the diet consists
largely of modified milk and
other liquids. AS the patient
convalesces, readily digested
solids are added, but only
gradually and little at a
time.
Since muscular activity Is
likely to be reduced after so, q
man should eat less even if his
appetite demands as much food
as before. An excellent plan Is
to eat smaller portions of each
kind Of food and to chew more
thoroughly. This satisfies hun
ger. Drinking two quarts Of
water between meals each day
is likewise desirable for elimi-
nation.
