know - Well. l won't even kick if

Bumper fled from the door and
stumbled down the stairs. He estaggered
out to the car and got in behind the
wheel. He gripped it fiercely. His face
was purple.
"And t think that guys got my
blood in his veins!' he muttered.
1t was one o'clock before Doctor
West came out of the hospital. He got
into the car slowly, little YEARLY.
Tough morning, Bumper" he said
as Mcclure shut the door and slid
behind the wheel. almost lost a
patient - on the table
Bumper gave the starter a vindic-
tive buzz. "I'll say it's been a tough
morning. he said "Y' almost lost a
patient? Well. I'm here t tell y we
have lost patient - with no almost
about it,
What do you mean? What's
happened?"
Il mean Kirkland an that Miss
Pendleton l saw it comm! An l was
standin' outside the door an heard it

What happened" repeated West.
THE worst! Mister kirtland's s gone
an fell for that nurse Asst her t'marry
him an promised t do anything she
told him."
Nonsense That's not possible"
Il heard it with me own ears" said
Bumper.

none of these nurses, anyhow. Most
of 'em- except the natural sour
pusses - has only got one aim in life.
T. cop off a rich patient or an up-an-
comm doctor. Take it from me, seen
a lot since been around here He
stood up. Il gotta be goin' or Miss
Pendleton'll crown me. III be droppin'
in again in day'r two"
For the rest of the afternoon and
evening Bumper carried a heavy
weight in his mind. He was convinced
his idol was on dangerous ground, if
he had not already committed himself
beyond reclamation. 1t would be easy
for a man to get himself all involved
when he was weak and sick, even a
tough one who knew his way around
as we'll as Kirkland.
He stopped at home at seven-thirty
for bite of supper in between trains.
A message TO phone Doctor west was
waiting for him.
When he called, West said, II
wonder if you can help me out, Bum
per? My man Martins sick. Caught
the mumps from one of his kids. Will
YOU drive me around for couple of
weeks?"
'Sure can," said Bumper.
"All right. Eight tomorrow morn
ing" Bumper hung up the phone with
snort and feeling of savage vindica-
ton. There it was again, women
always leading to trouble for man.
Mumps
With three operations scheduled
between nine and noon. West had too

"Ew women are really handicapped
by ydisproportionately large, small,
long, or short noses. Yet famous
beauties have been displeased with
their noses; and Cleopatra, herself.
is said to have fretted because hers
was too short But an irregular nose
can, and often does, add charm to
face. The proof is found in many we'll
known profiles that are intriguing,
even though the nose lends itself to
caricature when an artist gets busy
with pencil - as has been the case
with such attractive women as Beatrice
Lille, Ethel Barrymore, Alice Faye,
Gloria Swanson, Norma Shearer, or
Ruth Chatterton.
Sometimes, it is true, nose strays
too far from the path of beauty, for
ordinary cosmetic and costume tricks
to be effectual. The modern science of
plastic surgery is in use every day to
remedy Natures extreme mistakes of
this kind. But most of us need nothing
more than cosmetic surgery"
Proof that this method works is
found in Hollywood where noses are
cosmetically revamped if they fail to
satisfy the cameras eye" says Perc
Westmore, makeup expert for lead
ing film company. And what we do
in our studios can be done at home
with simple makeup aids"
If your nose is larger than you like,
for instance, minimize it with dark
foundation. The expert way is to apply
the dark foundation all along the CEN
ter area of the face, and then blend in
a lighter shade on the other areas. Be
careful not to leave any demarcation
line. When you are ready to apply the
powder, choose the shade you ordinar-
lily wear. But forego rouge, if you can,
since two pink cheek ovals frame the
nose like a picture. If you need rouge,
however, put it on lightly, and as far
away from the nose as possible.
On the other hand, you should make
up your mouth and eyes to emphasize
their importance. Make your lips wide
rather than high. A brilliant shade of
lipstick, creatively applied, also ac-
cents the mouth Softly tinted shadow
to enhance the color of your eyes,
mascara to lengthen their fringes and
widen their ovals, help to star your
eyes. Pluck your eyebrows to give
more space between them.
How these and other tricks snip off
length from a nose, was evident in
pencil sketch Mr.. Westmore made of
a well-known screen beauty, whose
nose is always redone before it goes in
front of the camera. He lowered her
forehead with bangs, keeping them level
with her brows, and softened the
severity of her nose with loose waves

much on his mind to encourage Bum
pcr's conversation. They covered the
rounds in half the usual time.
Mcclure parked the car in front
of the hospital and wondered what to
do until it was time to drive West
home for midday Office hours. After
half an hour of no more excitement
than watching an assorted pack of
village dogs playing tag on the hospi-
tai lawn. Bumper decided that he
might as we'll drop in to see Kirkland.
He probably wouldn't have chance
in the afternoon with the Doctor as
busy as he was.
Bumper climbed the three fights of
stairs to the private floor. He was
sweating when he got there and Won
dering why in the world hospital
had to be kept as hot as Turkish
bath. He paused at Kirtland's door to
mop his face. The door was open but
the screen was across it on the inside.
Bumper was stretching out hand to
move the screen when he became
aware of a murmur of talk from the
room. He hesitated and cooked his
head.
Kirkland voice came to him Two
months" Bumper heard him say.
''I'll say it's a long time, Plenty long
enough! Now, honey. be reasonable"
Bumpers face burned as he listened.
He felt sense of deep shame for his
sex. His impulse was to back away
and hide. Mush!
Marry me" Kirtland's voice went
on, give up all this nonsensical work
for other people who haven't any real
appreciation, anyhow. I'll-Tll do
anything for you - to make you

MANY a heart has been
won by a thrilling head of hair. For
when a man looks at you, remember
his eyes start with your head.
Yes, hair can do wonders for a
woman provided your shampoo per-
mits the natural radiance of your hair
to come forth and work its magic on
your whole personality. You see, soap
and oil shampoos so often leave an
unrinsable cloud of film on your hair
to actually dull its natural brilliance.
That's why women used to need a
lemon or vinegar rinse. Why your
hair so often looked dull and dead,
ui,manageable and stringy.
How lucky for all women that
scientist made this discovery now in
Halo Shampoo-a way to make rich,
creamy shampoo lather without the
use of either soap or oil.
Here at last is an ideal shampoo for
dry, oily or normal hair even in hard
est water. One shampoo with Halo
demonstrates perfectly how it re-
moves all trace of dull, cloudy film
left by many soap and oil shampoos.
How radiant and full of iuster it
leaves your hair, eliminating any need
for lemon or vinegar rinse. How silky
soft and manageable it leaves your
hair. How clean and fragrant your
scalp, without irritation. In fact, even
loose, Aaky dandruf is safely removed.
Halo is tested and approved by
Good Housekeeping. just think, for

erous bottle of this thrilling

Bumper Mcclure had felt completely
off key with the world all afternoon.
He'd about decided that the only
thing to do was to 60 on completc

Bumper watched the lighted en-
trance to the hospital. Hurrylng
figures were passing in and out. The
advance guard of evening visitors
and nurses going on and off duty.
Presently Bumper saw Vests big
figure come out The Doctor paused
on the steps, lighting a cigarette. A
woman came out almost on his heels.
She and the Doctor walked down the
steps together. They came toward
the car. Bumper got out to open the
door. With a savage feeling he recog-
nized Miss Pendleton.
Can drive you home?" West was
saying and almost before Bumper
knew it, was helping her into the car.
Bumper slammed the door and got
behind the wheel.
I'm discharging Kirkland at the
end of the week." he heard West say.

West coughed. Excuse me-" he
said. Il thought you might want to
tell me something of your plans =

Pendleton said tensely, Doctor

He raised his voice quite unneces-

AS Bumpers ears brought to his
mind the full import of what was hap

wheel almost cracked in his grip, the
