Europe-and the further east one
goes, the truer it becomes-realize
that love is like any other game
like cheminde-fer, baccarat, pheasant
shooting, polo or diplomacy ITSELF"
"a singular philosophy" he obser-
we'd as he got to his feet.
She shot him quick, fugitive
smile. "Do you think 500"
Eyes"
every we'll then, I should like to
make convert of YOU" From I'M
der her long eyelashes she Knocked
him. $50, Monsieur the good shep-
herd, you are invited to come tomor-
row to my Cousins residence on the
Kerrespi Ut, at half-past four"
The invitation came in the nature
of a complete surprise, and Ian ex-
perienced the sensation of a man
whose car commences to skid on an icy
road. He knew what ought to be
done, tried to do it, yet he felt himself
slipping helplessly in quite the oppo-
site direction, reaching a bad decis-
ion.
GAIL right" he said suddenly, and
laughed, though the scar on his chin
was very red. "But watch out
shall do my best to cut Leonard out
for you see, Pm beginning to like
you myself"
Smiling inscrutably, she stood up
and extended white, ringless hand,
whereupon he bent and brushed his
lips across the cool fragrance of its
back. UNI! Orchidees Noires-Black
Orchids!-what a gem of a perfume
that was-baffling like it's wearer.
"You had better not tell Leonard"
she added in low voice and, darting
him a bright, brief glance, turned
away. But from behind a clump of
palms, there darted the figure of a
man. Sensing the menace of that
swift silhouette, Ian hurled himself
forward, without an instant's hesita-
ton, and snatched desperately at a
broad hand that gripped something
duly bright.
"Bogu!" The girl uttered startled
gasp and whirled back, both tiny
hands pressed to her mouth as Ian
Gray, First Secretary to the Ameri-
can Minister and Colonel Maxim Sobe-
loft of the Royal Bulgarian Army
grappled and reeled back and forth
in furious struggle for the Bulgar's
automatic.

and their wedding is less than a
month off,"
The expression which next stamped
her facile features baffled him. He
sensed, rather than saw, that she was
taken aback, then she laughed with
curious discordant little note in her
amusement.
81 fail to see why that is any con-
Germ of mine. All know is that Leo
nard is very good to me and II am
very fond of him."
Said Ian bitterly, eff you were fond
of him, you would not let him make
such an ass of himself" He changed
his note to the confidential. "Would
it interest you to learn that Leonard
is risking his career by his open at
tentions to you?"
"You are very kind Monsieur, to so
interest yourself in my affairs" said
she, and her soft neither lip disappear
ed momentarily between her teeth.
"But-I-well-"
All an once her manner changed,
permitting Ian to glimpse different
girl; one who by choice or under pres
sure of circumstances was thinking
along practical lines, girl who was
very much cosmopolitan of the world.
Almost at once the expression passed
Lolita Won Waldeck and she was once
more the pathetically confused, half
resentful juene file she had been of
moment before.
Really" said she coldly, "you are
being fantastic, Monsieur Gray and
almost insulting when you imply that
your friend risks his career in paying
me attention. Leonard Holt must de-
eide his own problems, and 1.-The sor-
rows of woman I do not know in
terest me not at all. Perhaps it is
BETTER" she added swiftly, "that Leo
nard's fiancee learn how many sor-
rows can come to a woman"
"Then you won't send Leonard a.
bout his business?"
She Knocked him with an enhancing
little moue that somehow made his
earnestness ridiculous.
"No, no, stern guardian, I am 60
ing to devour your helpless little lamb
to the last bit of WOOL" She broke
into laugh which once more sounded
genuine. "But come, there is nothing
so serious about it all. Your English
and Americans should leave love alone
it is the feather that you Anglo
SaXons handle like a bomb. You make
to much of it, whereas we here in old

tucked between ColonelSobeloff's half
open lips before sinking into a chair
alongside.
Chuckling as over some humorous
remark Ian bent forward to see who
approached. There were two or three
couples in the group that came saun-
tering along the shaded passages. At
their head strolled Major Harris, deep
in trivial conversation with the fat
little Belgian lady.
-"And imagine it, my dear Sobel-
off," Ian chuckled, "after all poor
Hartney's work, it turned out the
girls father had not a penny"
The first couple drew near: Major
Harris, lean and saturnine as ever in
his logged black uniform. He nod
ded briefly to the two men seated in
the shadows of the bower, but none of
the others paid any attention to the
stream of small talk that Ian Gray
was directing to the Bulgarian Colonel
who, completely relaxed, seemed to be
wholly occupied in enjoying his Gig

"Je tuerais cette putaine," ragged the
bearded man and twisted his epaulet-
ted shoulders so violently that he al
most broke away. "Laissez moi-al-
ler."
"Quiet, you fool" painted Ian in fur
ious French as he twisted the pistol
from Sobeloff's hand. you'll ruin
us all if you make a scene."
"May the devil blast you'll" choked
the other, his bearded features con-
torted into an expression of Satanic
fury. He almost spat his words in
sibilant French. "No, you will not go
tomorrow-afternoon-Lolita has be-
fooled her last lover!"
The Bulgarian made a sudden eff
fort to free himself from the big Amer
leans grasp, there sounded small
snarling noise, and one of the stiff
golden epaulettes tore loose, it's but
ton tinkling on the tile pavement.
Spurred by the fear of the fatal
scandal that threatened to ensue Ian,
venting an exasperated curse, drove
short, but vicious uppercut to the
Bulgarian's jaw. Colonel Sobeloff's
bullet head snapped back and the dis
heveled American had just time to
catch the uniformed figure as it sag
ged towards the tiled floor of the con-
servatory.
Get out" he snapped over his
shoulder. "Say nothing and leave this
to me-"
Into the waistband of his own trous-
ers Ian tucked the would-be assassin's
Luger, then swiftly arranged the I'M

When the last of the saunters were
by, Ian got up, drew out a handker-
chief and removed the conventional
beads of perspiration from his brow.
AS he returned the handkerchief to
his pocket, he noticed that the Bull
garian's eyes had opened and were re-
garding him with an intensity that
was malevolent to say the least. He
Strengthened jerkily, tested his jaw
then stated in execrable French.
"You struck me, Monsieur Gray.
That means I shall have to kill you."

and, turning on his heel, set grimly off
in search of Leonard Holt.

Endorse Sale OF

Carrying national, state and com
munity endorsement, the thirty
first annuaiChristmas Seal drive of
the Nebraska tuberculosis Asso
citation opened Thanksgiving Day
to continue through the holiday
season.
Franklin d. Roosevelt the ma
I%tion's chief executive, gave the
campaign national recognition and
endorsement in a message from
the White House, in which he urg-
ed the people of the nation to do
their part in supporting the cam
paign to raise funds for the con-
troll of tuberculosis.
His message. in part, stated:
Under the leadership of the Ma
tionai tuberculosis Association,
state and local societies and com
mittees in all parts of the United
States; conduct organized health
programs in all communities in
which the seals are sold. The aid
of every American is needed in
this cause. tuberculosis is every
bodys problem. l thereby urge all
to do their part generously in sup
porting the thirty-frst annual
Christmas Seal sale to be carried
on up to Christmas"
Governor r. l.. Cochran of Ne.
braska in a letter to the Nebraska
tuberculosis Association states in
part; ut is my pleasure to join
once again in calling attention to
the people of the state of Nebras-
ka to the annual Christmas Seal
sale of the Nebraska tuberculosis
Association. The proceeds from the
sale of these seals are used to fin
nee the war upon tuberculosis. For
all of us to participate as fully as
possible in this war, by the pur-
chase and use of these seals. is a
concrete way in which we can give
expression to our thankfulness for
the blessings bestowed upon US.
Science is doing its part to con.
troll the ravages of tuberculosis.
But If this war is to succeed to the
point where this terrible disease
no longer constitutes the wide
spread menace, which it now is, the
active and intelligent cooperation
of the general public is necessary.
The purchase and the use of
Christmas Seals is an appealing
and effective way in which the
general public can cooperate. 1t is
my hope and my belief that the
people of Nebraska will again res.
pond to this appeal as generously
as they have in the past"
Mayor Dan B. Butler of Omaha
has given official recognition by is
suing a proclamation to the citi-
zens of the community to do their
part in the campaign to curb the
