Mary Carlisle has a brand new re-

two card trick" and lots of Hollywood
stars are practicing it. Here it is:

pick them all up, one by one. until you
have the whole fifty-two. It'll surprise
you how much fifty-two cards can do
for the right muscles, particularly
those that need stretching"
And what about your hips? 1t is
good idea to try out a few exercises
for slenderizing them. You can do
these while taking your sunbath:

Coughing and sputtering she yanked
her dress straight and with her first
clear breath, snarled like an enraged
kitten: This was just what
thought would happen the first time
l heard about that boat and this -
this mud puddle"
"You feel all right now?" Edgar
Bowen asked and lifted a trailing
weed from her hair.
''Boatsv' she ragged on. What do
they know about boats"
They we're coming up through the
weeds, their hands clutching for the
dock. Their heads appeared and Edgar
greeted them with: why she didn't
sink when the first two hundred pounds
hit her, Ill never know"
Wally attempted feeble grin,
Chester gurgled and Clifford spoke
through the water in his nose: Were
sorry, Isabelle. Gee!
She swallowed back her rage and
made herself become calm and pleas
ant. Its all right" she said. Per
fectly all right"
But you aren't and I'm taking you
to some dry clothes nos0." Before she
could protest she was up in Edgar's
arms and he was striding of the dock.
He said nothing more until he reached
his car parked by a thicket.
Now He put her down. "You
strip off your things, put on my coat
and wrap yourself in the rug Ill get
you from the car"
1t dawned on her that everything
was turning out to be pretty exciting.
Very exciting, for he was treating her
like real person. He was really being
marvellous to her and she would thank
him, honestly thank him just as soon
as she got out of her wet clothes.
When she emerged from the thicket
he gave her no opportunity to thank
him. Picking her up as if she were
blanket wrapped baby. he put her in
the car, got in beside her and began
rubbing her sopping hair with his two
handkerchiefs.
Fool guysr' he muttered. They
could've drowned you. Tangled up
with those weeds with those three
gorillas thrashing around you" His
voice softened, "And you didn't want
to go through with the crazy stunt in
the first place - funny kid!'
There he was - starting it again,
showing her she was a mere child in
his eyes. She bent forward, cringing

Man Complains
Relatives NEEDLE
With Children

Editor: If relatives are so crazy
about their nieces or nephews, lei
them put their money where Their
mouth is and see how much you
get.
They can give advice which is
the worst form Of vice, and on top
of it would not even follow it if
the shoe was on the other foot.
Most of these relatives have
neither chick nor child of their own.
But the free advice, the counsel
they can give, would make you
think they had raised dozen chill
dren.
You never hear of parents with
a large family giving out wholesale
advice.
Of course, usually all this gossip
comes from the female side of the
children's family as far back as
second or third cousins.
1t burns a person up who is try
ing to raise children up right in
this community, to have blood rela-
tives trying to undermine the chill
dren's confidence in the parents.
Blood relatives in this case
haven't anything physically, men
tally or financially to offer.
We cite our case because we
know of other cases besides our
own in St. Paul where meddlesome
relatives make it difficult for par
ents to control adolescent children.
Such relatives should tend to
their own childless fireside.

CHAPTER SIX

The next morning Clark arose
early, breakfasted heartily in his
apartment, and drove to a certain
office downtown in Roaring Lane,
the popular title for Seventy-second
street, highway of the city's finance.
The office Clark sought was in the
Molemuke Building, which was just
about the exact center of the
twenty blocks on Roaring Lane that
housed the business affairs of the
tycoons of finance and power. From
the offices in that short space of
street went the vibrations that
controlled, or deeply affected, every
industrial enterprise in the state,
and not a few in the nation.
The office to which Clark made
his way was located on the fif-
teenth floor. The Molemuke Build
ing was not one of the creations Of
stone, glass and steel that had
come into existence since architec-
ture had gone modernistic, and the
hall down which Clark walked was
devoid of shining chromium and
hidden lighting. But despite this
absence of modern" design, there
was something about the general
tone of this place that rather awed
the newcomer. 1t exuded a sense
of hidden power and magnitude.
Clark never failed to feel this
upon entering the building. And
this morning, at an early hour
when but few persons were about,
the spirit of the place seemed in
tensified.
AS early as the hour was, how
ever, Clark knew the man he
sought would be in. August Tweed
was always in his office early. And
usually remained late. Which was
probably one of the reasons why he
had remained so long at the head
of the most powerful political ma
chine the state had ever known,
and whose influence had more than
once been known to dictate the
policy of national administration.
He was an interchangeable worker, a
loyal friend, and relentless enemy.
He was the type you either loved
or hated, and if you crossed his
path you would probably have rea-
son to do one or the other. His
enemies referred to him as that
damned stubborn Dutchman."
One did not get into August
Tweed's office by knocking. In fact,
very few persons got in there at
all. And those who were fortunate
or unfortunate depending upon
the nature of their errand) enough
to do so secured entrance by push
ing a well-concealed buzzer button
to the left of the door. And you
had to know how to push it. Obvi-
ously Clark did, for following the
faint click of a well-oiled electric
lock, Clark opened the door and
entered.
August Tweed sat at a table
which was strewn with papers. He
was in his shirt sleeves, and pre-
scented a picture of power and en-
ergy. He was huge of frame, and
the head that sat upon it immediA
ately attracted the eye. It was
crowned with thatch of stiff white
hair. Under bushy eyebrows that
were anonymously black, were
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1937-09-24

|
His mouth was a straight line in a
ruddy face.
Such was August Tweed, king
maker, before whom high officials
stood and listened with respect.
And it was for this man and his
colleagues that Clark acted as con-
fidential liaison officer.
"Come in, come in, Clark" Tweed
doomed, offering his huge hand.
"Im mighty glad you showed up
today. When Miss Gilman arrived
1 was going to have her locate you.
Sit down there and have one of
these"-he offered Clark a cigar
from an ornate box-"which 1 just
received from a Cuban friend"
Clark knew that this man was his
friend. And it was he whom he pro-
posed to enlist in his fight against
Craddock.
~ said I was glad you came in
today" Tweed went on when their
cigars were both burning properly.
There's hell in the wind, kid"
Whenever Tweed called Clark "kid"
some important revelation was
about to follow.
Clark leaned forward in his chair
and gave Tweed his eager attention.
For the moment Craddock was
swept from his mind.
'Back in 1920, kid-that was be-
fore your time-we smashed the
most dangerous opposition that has
ever run against our machine in the
state. 1t was coalition that damned
near coaligned US out of office.
They were backed by powerful out
side interests with plenty of money
and brains.
"They Slapped at the organization
in a manner that was extremely
difficult to combat. They swung
number of the boys and girls
around, and it was only after we
had used every old trick and I'M
corked a few new ones that we
beat them off.
'That fight left it's scars, though.
We expelled all the traitors from
the machine and began to build our
fences tighter and tighter. Things
have been running along so rosily
that the memory of some of the
lads has been dulled. But not mine,
kid. knew we had to fight that
fight all over again some day.
"And I was right. We do"
Tweed's eyes shone with hidden
fire, and his voice increased it's
pitch. Clark remained in an atti-
tude of strict attention. There was
very definite reason for Tweed to
tell him all this, and he awaited the
explanation.
"Yep; we've got to fight that
same gang again, and the battle
will be even tougher. They've got
even more money for one thing.
They hate US for another, not hav-
ing forgotten nor forgiven that last
beating. And they are going to
badly need our fifty-one electoral
votes two years from now. Follow
me, kidd"

eyes, chief" Clark said.

"Well, here's the dope, then, and
where you come in. Outside of this
city things look like a stand-off.
We've got the smaller cities and
they've got the farmers. If Man
ming, the damned fool, hadn't bum
gled that low homestead tax bill in
the legislature last season we
might have at least some of the
farmers. But we haven't and that's
that.
Inside of town here we are pref
ty certain to at least split, too. But
every day it becomes more appar-
ent that the five Negro wards are
going to be the real battle-ground.
We must carry the city, and to do
that we must carry those wards
without doubt.

to get down and mix in the mud.
But I don't know who else to lay
this on but you. The boys say you
can do it and Pm sure you can. Will

"Of course, chief" Clark said
without hesitation.
"Good! knew you would. But
it's going to be tough. The other
side knows how important those
Negro votes are, too. They'll make
all kinds of promises. So will we.
But we've made ours good in the
past, and we will in the future.
Stress that plenty. Well make good

Warm weather is becoming more

with it comes many complaints to the
health department from renters of

health officer feels that the majority
of these complaints could be settled
without reference to, or investigation
by the health department, if the per-
sons living on these premises would
go to the owner or agent and ask for
relief.
"The health department has found
owners and agents cooperative and
none has refused tosremedy insanitary
conditions. They are all law-abiding
citizens and will not maintain a con-
