INSTALLMENT XIV.
EAVING Goliath at the hospital,
Riley Blackwood went forth

1NSTALLMENT AAt.
r EAVING Goliath at the hospital
Riley Blackwood went forth
into La Sale street and hunted
/ IL UP another taxi. Then, bowl
ing smoothly toward the night club
in Chicago avenue, he gave himself up
once more to the delicate-and some
times dangerous-business Of thought.
He was thinking now Of Valerie West,
remembering her as he had last seen
her in her black and scarlet mas
querade.
She had an accomplice: that much
was certain. It had been reasonably
certain from the beginning. The map
who had pretended to be a Hindu had
taken q leading part in the prelimin-
AIRY investigations. In all probability
he was somebody connected with the
night club.
Happy" Chance, the manager, per-
haps? Or one of the anthropoid gun
men who were his henchmen? Val
cries sweetheart. anyway-some one
upon whom she could depend.
An idea occurred to the speeding
Investigator and halted him at hotel
to make a call. In the excitement OF
Anne Gray's message that Goliath
was in the hospital, he had forgotten
his intention to call up Tommy Les
ter. If Philip Constantines hunch
had been correct, it was Lester who
was with Janice Hume on Sunday
night, and Lester probably knew
whatever Janice had known. If what
Janice had known had any bearing
on the movements Of Valerie West
1t occurred to Blackwood that he
would like to hear about 1t.
He called up Testers off1ce-the
young man was with q bond house
| and learned that Tommy was out OF
town. He had gone to Minneapolis
on Monday morning. 1t appeared, and
would not return until the following
Saturday. He could be reached. If
necessary, at certain hotel.
Blackwood put through a call for
Minneapolis, but Mr.. Lester-a dis
tant voice informed hin-was not Just
then in the hotel. It was family an
noying. If Janice had been murdered
because of something that she knew,
Tommy-who was presumably in the
same predicament-might also be a
candidate for lilies.
1t was a quaint idea and he toyed
with it for several minutes. Had the
young bond salesman left for Min
neapolis before or after hearing about
Janice's death? Had he, indeed, heard
Of 1t at all?
Chicago avenue was not far away.
Blackwood decided to walk the re-
naming distance along the boulevard.
First, though. he would smoke cigar
cite in the comfortable lounge of the
hotel. To the devil with Lester! The
| problem now was not Tommy Lester.
but Percy Jones.
A new and arresting thought shot
Evening star., 1936-10-08
By Fred E. Ebel.

He stuck his tongue in his cheek,
pursed humorous mouth.
Sure. But don't blame you. Not
after how she treated you"
Jenny nodded and recalled the
trouble she and Mrs. Larsen had had.
Or tried to recall it. Oh, yes, Mrs.
Larsen had borrowed an electric per-
colator, returned it unpublished. Her
nice new Silver-plated percolator-tar-
nished! That had severed their friend
ship. After many pleasant evenings
of bridge and equally pleasant hours
of conversation Again Jenny's
heart stood still.
Hear it cry?" she said.
He laughed. You can't fool me.
You want to 60 over"
She knew it was true. Oh, SO very
true. How she ached to see Mrs. Lar
sen. And the little one-how she
would like to hold him, snuggle his
tiny body to her breast.
"Yup, Jenny" her husband went on
with amused tolerance, I'm on to you.
Haven't been married 10 years TO you
Tor notnlng
CHE glared at him. You don't know
- anything. Why should I want to
see that brat of hers?"
He hid his face from hers. She
thought she saw his shoulders shake.
you're laughing at me, aren't you?
&c, Well, it's the truth. I don't want
to see her after the way" She
stopped. The electric percolator cpl
sode would make him laugh at her.
"Yup, I don't blame you"
Why must he always say that? His
tone, she knew. carried just the oppo-
site meaning. 1t made her breathe
faster. She could have thrown one
of the supper dishes at him.
How would you feel If some one
borrowed your nice new gun and re-
turned it uncleaned?"
He pursed his lips. "Yup, Jenny.
you got right"
You got right! Now he was laugh
ing at her. He always used that ex-
preston when he wanted to joke. 1t
amused him, but made her furious.
All the more because he knew her
mind. He knew how badly she want
ed to see Mrs. Larsen ever since the
baby's arrival three weeks ago. He
knew
Maybe" he broke into her thoughts,
Eve could take in movie. You must
be quite nervous listening to that
crying all day."

THAT was like him. Thoughtful.
- Not just for himself. She looked
at him through the corner of her eye.

He called after her. How about
the diShes?"
When we come back"
SHE couldn't stand minute longer
~ in the house That baby's crying
was getting on her nerves. It was like
the rattling of loose window, at first
not apparent, and then registering
with full force on tortured nerves. Out
side, at least, there would be some
thing else to see, to talk about. She
dressed quickly, almost ran to the front
room where her husband was lazily
reading the newspaper.
"Well, aren't we going?"
He threw down the paper, exclaimed,
Gosh, I clean forgotl"
While waiting, Jenny turned on the
radio. But even at full volume she
fancied she heard the baby's cry. 1t
was maddening. Perhaps, she thought
guiltily, Mrs. Larsen was all alone.
But that couldn't be. She had her
husband and 14-year-old niece to help.
Then why didn't it stop crying? Didn't
they know anything?
well, I'm ready now" announced
her husband, and receiving no an
swer: Il said I'm ready"
She looked dumbly at him.
"What?"
I'm ready"
"Oh"
He lit his pipe, turned of the radio
and opened the door.
Coming, Jenny?"
She had her head cooked to one side,
the Larsen's side
Hear it?" she asked.
He smiled. You're imagining things
now. don't hear a thing
pERHAPS he was right. This thing
was beginning to get" her. Once
outside she'd forget all about it, feel
her old self But she knew she
wouldn't. Every night and every day
for the last three weeks she had heard
that baby cry. Heard 1t and suffered
miserably. No, she couldn't forget Just
by going outside. She could hear that
little mite if she went to the North
Pole! She turned suddenly to her hus-
band-so suddenly he was frightened.

Concerning
Dress for
Afternoon
When Gloves and
Hat Should Be
Worn.
BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. PosT-what is proper
to leave a hat on or remove it
at a lunch party? The other day I
went to lunch expecting not to take
off my hat, which happened to COM
plete my ensemble, but all the women
already there had removed theirs and
I thought I might seem conspicuous
II I did otherwise.
Answer-According to fashionable
precept, women do not take their hats
of at a lunch party-ever-unleSS in
their own houses and even then not
always. But if 1t Is customary where
you happen to be, it Is always in good
taste to do what the others do.
DEAR MRS. PoST-1 am driving to
the West Coast late in Autumn,
and wonder whether you think di-
vided skirt dress in light weight wool
and Of color appropriate for town,
would be suitable for travelling. It
would certainly be the most comfort
able attire for driving car. but I'm
wondering whether it could be worn
into the hotels and restaurants with
out looking conspicuous.
Answer-This whole question de-
pends upon the cut and appearance
of the skirt and also upon your own
figure. If it hangs exactly like a skirt,
not only in the front, but sides and
also directly In the back, then If you
think 1t will really add to your COM
fort and expertness as a driver, it
would be unreasonable to find fault
with It. Personally, don't know why
1t would be any more serviceable than
an ordinary skirt in car. On q
bicycle, or If you were sailing a boat,
that is another matter. And whatever
you do, don't go into city hotel lobby
In anything suggestive of slacks.
11EAR MRS. POST-My two daugh-
- ters in their teens went to an
afternoon wedding last Summer
dressed in long cotton dresses and big
leghorn hats. They were, as it hap
pened. the only younger guests dressed
in long dresses. I have been so wor-
ried since that others may have
thought I didn't know how to dress
my children. Dcu't young girls wear
long dresses, provided they are simple,
and wouldn't wedding be an appro-
pirate place to wear these clothes2
Answer-I am surprised there were
no other long dresses because at most
weddings. especially in Summer, the
scattered number Of long dresses Of
the young women make one Of the
attractive features Of the scene. Per-
haps the place where the wedding was
held was an unusually simple one, and |
the people were not accustomed to
clothes that are In other places con-
dqered typical Of weddings.

The markets advance was re-
sumed today with many leading
issues squirting one to two points
to reach their highest levels since
1929.
Opening fractionally higher and
strengthened as the session wore
on, the upswing was climaxed by
wave of buying at 1880 o'clock
which sent the ticker two minutes
late. Profit-taking in the final
minutes, however, trimmed gains.
U. s. Steel led with jump of
over two points to its best level
since 1881. Bethlehem gained
almost as much, also setting new
