NOW co ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXXlII
There was crash as Dick Ran
dali hit the floor. A plate fell
like a small, weak echo. Someone
screamed. Someone else grabbed
Peters arm. but he shook the re-
straining hand off and strobe to-
ward the door.
Valeria called, "Peter, Peterr
but he did not turn. In the 81
lence that followed Dirk poured
her a drink, held it to her lips,
whispering, "You lost. Now drink
your poison"
Outside, head clearing, Peter
was getting into his car. He knew
now what he wanted. He had not
wanted that noisy, greedy, guz-
zling crowd. He wanted a good
look at Tony. And then he wanted
to break him between his hands.
It would not be card to find
Tony. A telephone book did not
reveal the, address but hei had
better luck when he called an
formation"
The windows of Tony's duplex
apartment were lighted. Tony was
in. Perhaps Ann was there too.
Peter wanted to sec AIMS face
when he broke Tony between his
hands. Tony. who had let her 90
once and then had taken her
away from Peter.
He pressed the bell and then,
not waiting, turned the knob and
flung the door wide.
Tony was coming toward him.
Just beyond was a girl with bold
eyes. Not Ann. Not Ann!
Peter stepped back, sanity re-
turning. Tony came outside, clos
ing the door behind him.

went on. "You thought Ann was

After a while he would get his
divorce and he reinstated III MS
grandfather's good graces. Eventu-
ally, he would marry Valera, the
girl he really wanted.
Valera had accused Ann OF
trapping Peter. Well, it was Va
leria that Peter wanted not q
poor, silly, blind little fool who
had mistaken his tenderness ano
consideration for love.
He had been white and wild,
eyed when he lifted Ann in his
arms after the accident. But al
most any man would have beer
excited and anxious. And, OF
course, Ann couldn't doubt that
he was fond of her. That was al
he had meant when he had held
her close to him, calling hel

If Ann had been willing to ac-

waiter, lowering near, spoke to
the sad-eyed young woman who
had scarcely touched her meager
breakfast. He added in a low
tone, "Therc's no extra cost. 1t
is just little compliment to our
customers.

Half of the luke-warm mixture
was still in her cup. She lifted
it to her lips and finished it.

At noon she went out for an

she wrote an answer to the adj

her eye.

The morning Of the third day
she received an answer. Mrs.
Lois Tracy had been pleased with
Miss Ann Jones' letter and would
be glad to consider her for the
position. Since there was no car
line or bus service in the Engle-
side section, Mrs. Tracy would
drive in for her early that after
noon.

Peter waited.
"When she got here she looked
tired and sick. / went IN the
kitchen to fix some cocktails.
When 1 came back she was gone.
She called from the car that she
had just remembered something
something important, she SAID.
Peter remembered AIMS car
inside the garage, the open door.
He had been gone such a short
time and believed Ann had taken
spin on the drive.
Tony said bitterly, "Do you
know why she left that night?
Because she realized she didn't
love me. | don't know why I'm
giving you this break, Kendall

YOU"
Peter wrung Tony's hand. In a
moment the world had changed.
He drove to the apartment in
stead of the club. He flung the
windows wide in Ann'sroom. He
would sleep here tonight. In this
room that was so filled with men,
cries of Ann. Tomorrow he would
begin the search for her - the
search that had been too long de-
layed.
Ann had dressed early the
morning she left the apartment.
She had called a cab and manag-
ed to be waiting for the driver
in the downstairs lobby when he
arrived.
"Where to, miss?" The taxi
driver asked the question twice
before the white-faced girl in the
cab answered.
"Drive on some place"
He stared. After a moment he
started the car. There was some
thing queer about this. The call
to one of the finest apartment
buildings at an hour when most
people were deep in sleep. The
pretty girl with the pala face,
waiting for him. How she had
managed to carry those two bags
was another mystery. She looked
sick.
By shifting the mirror little
the cab driver could see her face.
Yes, she was sick. There wasn't
a doubt of it. Maybe he should
suggest a hospital.
"Do you know some quiet
place, restaurant near here
where l could get breakfast"
Ann asked.
eyes, miss. There's one not far
from here"
A few minutes later he mad de-
posted his strange fare and her
two travelling bags in front of the
restaurant. At this early hour the
place was almost empty.
Ann stopped and bought a
morning newspaper from a news
boy on the corner. She had just
remembered that she had only
SO in her purse. This week be-
fore-on the day she had left for
the weekend at the Merriweath-
ers-she had recklessly emptied
her purse for Carol. The $40
would have to provide food and
shelter until she could find work.
Ann ordered only; toast and
coffee. Every extra nickel might
count later.

Contented Cows
Get Wine Dregs

NEW ORLEANS. La. Dec. 90.
(UP)-Jt looked like milk but it
tasted like wine, so the dairymen
went out 20 investigate their
product at its source.
They found the cows in a pas
ture off Peoples Avenue, looking
especially contented. Wineries
nearby were dumping the dregs
in the open field and the cows
were hopping it up.
The dairymen conferred with
Charles Ball, secretary of the city
board of health, and were told:
That winey milk is fit to drink,
if you like wine.
That the mayor would be ask
ed to remove the cows tempta-
ton.
That police would be told to
stop the practice Of providing
jags for cows and babies.
The final test of tact is to get
by without smoking the fancy
pipe she gives you for Christmas.

 New York, Mar. 10 (UP) - Stocks lost ground this week in dull trading, while bonds advance ed, commodities were steady to firm, and the dollar held almost stationary.
 Stocks advanced rapidly Thurs day when Senator Ducan U. Flet- cher indicated the stock exchange regulation bill would be modified before it was presented to the senate. It dipped on Friday again, however, when Ferdinand Pecora, counsel for the senate investiga- ton, gave less favorable inter- pretation of the proposed modifi- cations.
 The street still fears the regula- ton bill will be drastic. Some of the traders plan to do their busi- ness in foreign markets when the bill is passed. They bought heavily of Canadian stocks this week. New highs for the year or longer were made by Canadian Pacific, Interna- tional nickel. done mines, Noranda mines, Mcintyre porcupine. and Dominion stores.

EMPLOYMENT GAINS
 UNDER NEW CODES

Washington, March 10 - Ap- proval of the code of the stay manufacturing industry brought the total number of approved codes to 307. Labor provisions, it is estimated, will result in increase of 40 per cent in both pay rolls and total additional employment due to reduction of the work week to 40 hours. Home work will be abolished by June 1, 1894. The ad- ministrator may direct that there be a further hearing on such pro- visions of the code as he may des- ignate. Payroll increases of more than 10 per cent is expected from approval of a code for the outdoor advertising trade. Total employ ment in the fiber can and tube ip- dustry will be raised above the 1929 level and IS per cent increase in pay rolls as result of anoher code approval. On incomplete data, it is estimated that the pro- visions of code approved for the mica industry will increase em- ployment at least 20 per cent and wages not less than 30 per cent.

General List Pr0Ued IrreguLar M Trading
Mining and Repeal Shares Were the Only Features in
 Very ListIess and Slow Session
BY ELMER c. wALzER

New York, March 10.-(UP).- The stock market gave another un- impressive demonstration today trade slipping to the dullest pace in many days-with the only fea- lures coming in mining and re- peal shares.
 The former were strong all day and late in the session, silver shares started running up. Repeal stocks, on the other hand, were weak from the outset on basis of lift ing the liquor importation bans to lower domestic drink prices. A market of sharp irregularity, de- veloped late with the general list showing only fractional changes.
 In the mining group U. s. Smelt- ing was the chief performer. Start ing more than a point lower, this expensive stock started coming back and on the favorable con- gressional silver action raced to 131 for 3 points gain. American Smelling advanced more than a point to 46 1-2. Fractional gains came to the gold miners and other mining stocks.
 In the repeal division losses near the close ranged to more than point, most of the issues having come back somewhat from their lows. National Distillers was off IA at 27 5-8, after touching 26 7-S, Schenley was off 1-2 at 30 5-8, after touching 29; Ameri- can Commercial Alcohol was off 1 1-2 at 51. after hitting 50, while U. $. Industrial Alcohol held all day at 53 1-2, off 1.
 The general list was irregular. In the industrial group U. S. Steel was off Is, at 53 7-8, American Can gained fractionally to above 100, Du Pont at 97 1-8. was up 3-8. and Chrysler and General Mo tors both showed fractional de- clines. Rails were easier, New York Central losing 1-2 point to 37, and Pennsylvania 3-S. of q point to 33 7-S.
 Consolidated Gas led utilities down, showing Q fractional decline below 38. American Telephone. however, gained fractionally to 131 3-4. Oils were easier.

PLANS TO
 GET REVENUES

Hartford, Conn, Mar 10. (UP)- A discussion Of income and sales taxes as possible new sources of revenue for the state will be con ducted by the Connecticut special tax commission here March 20, it was announced to-day.
 The commission announced that "an extensive survey of the reve- nue systems of the forty-eight states and of more than a score of foreign nations had disclosed that the only substantial sources of tax revenue which the state has not al- ready tapped ar limited rather strictly to the various forms of personal income taxes. Both the experience of thesc other govern ments and current discussions of tax problms leads the commission to expect that income and sales taxes will provide the principal topics for consideration at this hearing."

 3. Electricity output in he week end March 3, registered a gain of 16.5 per cent over the correspond ing week of 1888. It was the larg- est percentage gain over the pre- vious year fo rany week since that ended July 6, 1929.

The latter in February had sales 52 per cent over February, 1888, and of the total, the improvement in mail order sales amounted to more than 80 per cent.
 Liquor issues were steadier. Communications did little. Oils all so were steady.

Business IDtulll

Washington, March 10.-(UP).- Assurance of q substantial early spring upturn in business, in sharp contrast to demoraliZed conditions a year ago, is seen by the govern ment in continued rise of various important weekly trade baromet- CTS.
 The almost unbroken rise in steels production, increasing car loadings, electric power output and coal production mean better bust ness.
 Reports show commercial activ- ityl at 10 to 30 per cent above the corresponding period of last year and generally at the best levels since early August. Administration officials are considering new means to add to the velocity. Funds to finance expansion of small busi- ness houses may be supplied short ly through intermediate credit banks.
 Impetus to eXplansion also may be furnished through an admin istration program of reciprocal tariff agreements.
