hated Ann, who had put it there:

putting Valeria out Of his mind
when he had broken with her:
But when Ann left, he had turned
into a recluse. Everybody was
talking ABOUT IL. All Faielio

terribly let down and sore and un-
happy and Inundated? You don't
doubt that I'll make the most of
my opportunity, do you?"
"No. I'm sure you will"
Mrs. Wainwright was suddenly
sorry for the girl who had been
unable to match her niece's clev7
erness and INSCRIPTIONS methods.
When she left the house Valeria
hat with half veil that shaded
her eyes. Her face had been made
up to a becoming pallor and her
lips were only lightly touched up.
"I'll probably have lunch with
Mrs. Kendall" she said, "and
then perhaps we'll drive by later
this afternoon and pick up Peter
for dinner. He will be feeling
pretty badly"
Her aunt was moved to admira-
ton of such ability. Valeria was
perfect actress. All traces OF
ugliness were gone. Her voice was
low and sweet again. Her eyes
smiled wistfully.

Peter suspected Valeria would

days that passed there apparently
was no way of managing it.
Valera was always appearing on
his path.

"You couldn't be that busy! Be

she would say. That was all Peter

On one of these occasions, Sa-
rah saw the two having lunch to-

strained and weary face. for his
back was toward her. She only
saw Valeria's smiling eyes and
guessed how triumphant she was
feeling.
Sarah's scorn Of Peter was COM

to be having lunch with Valeria.
She couldn't have found a logical
reason for her feelings. They were
all mixed up. She was sure some

Soul Photography
Is Old, Says Pal
OF Late Houdini
By THEON WRIGHT
, United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Dec. 81. (UP)-
A mystical controversy threaten
ed to develop today over the soul
of a dying grasshopper.
The American Psychical Insti-
tute, which holds the leadership in
soul photography by reason of
having produced photograph of
a grasshopper's soul, found its
claims challenged by Joseph Dun
ninger, "mentalist" and spook
spOofer.
Mr.. Dunninger, pal of the late
Harry Houdini, produced not only
picture with the soul of a grass
hopper, but photograph Of a
grasshopper with the soul OF a
white rat, and q photograph of a
white rat with the soul OF q
grasshopper.
a photograph OF a grasshop-
per's soul is very documentary
stuff" Mr.. Dunninger said. IF
it becomes necessarily, l will pro-
duce a picture of a white rat with
the soul of Abraham Lincoln"
And to prove it was on the up
and-up, Cunningham invited your
correspondent to bring his own
camera, white rat and grasshop-
per.
He worked for three hours,
taking picture of souls, Mr.. Dun
ninger is a very smooth fellow,
with sharp black eyes, Padercw-
ski haircut and a set of tricky
hands. His greatest delight is to
make a sucker out of ghost.
When ne finished he had grass

BEGIN HERE TO-DAY


Ann Hollister, pretty and 20,
breaks her engagement to Tony
Mickle, commercial artist, because
of his drinking and general ire
sponsibility. The same day Peter
Kendall, wealthy and prominent,
learns how Valeria Bennett, his
fisrcee, has deceived him and tells
! her everything is over between
! them.
j Ann and Peter, both heartsicls
| and disillusioned, meet and dis
cuss their mutual unhappiness.
When Peter asks Ann to marry
him she agrees.
They go to Florida and spend
several weeks happily. Then Peter
is called home because Of bust
ness. All of the Kendall family,
except Peters sister, Millicent,
snub Ann.
AT a weekend party Ann is
thrown from q horse. Although
her injuries are not serious Peter
is deeply alarmed.
A few days later, when Ann is
convalescing, Valeria comes to see
her. Valeria tells Ann that Peters
grandfather has cut hin, off in his
will because of his marriage and
intimates that Peter regrets the
marriage.
Believing her love for Peter is
hopeless, Ann runs away.

they didn't act natural to my

her former home in Greenfield?
Then came the thought plun2ing
him into torment. She had gone
to Tony's. The idea was like a

grown until nothing else seemed
worth while in life.
Haggard, wild-eyed, he caught
the elevator. Evans had brought
his car to the front. He got in,
took the wheel and drove away
from town.
He half hour later he drove up
in front of the home he had pur-
chased as surprise for Ann. He
had let the nurse into the secret
and she had said Ann would be
strong enough today to drive out:
He had pictured AIMS excited
eyes, her rapturous exclamtions:
Perhaps after while he would
sell the place. But not now. Not
for a long while. He wondered if
the time would ever cone when he
would be willing for anyone else
to own AIMS home. He had
planned it, even to the smallest
details, with the thought of her
happiness and comfort. He had
pictured the soft, imported rugs
here, beautiful draperies, the fur
niture, the things she had chosen
He went out, shutting the door
turning the key on his broken
dream.

and something must be done"
She was telling everyone sweet

her family. She was feeling SO

thought it would be a nice time

Sarah received the same news.
She had called AIMS apartment
several times and the phone was
not answered. The girl who an
swered stated that Mrs. Peter Ken

, know when she would return to
the city.
Something was wrong, SaraI
decided. Ann had not mentioned

her a few days before. Even
though she had looked little pale
from the accident, she had seemed
