By Beatrice Burton CHAPTER XXXV mHAT night Gloria ate no dinner When Dick had finished his and Ranghild had carried the tray downstairs, Gloria went into his room. “Look at me, Rikky,” she said. “Am I getting too fat?” Dick looked at her critically as she turned slowly around before him. “You look just the same to me as you always have,” he said at last. "I don’t see any change in you. You’re still the prettiest thing that ever lived!” “Now, that just proves that you never really look at me! I've gained ten pounds!” Gloria cried tragically. “Ten pounds!” Dick laughed at her woe-begone face. “Well, what of it? That’s not much. And besides a little plumpness is becoming to a woman,” Dick answered. “And if you were as fat as the prize-winner in a Turkish beauty show, you’d still be the loveliest woman in the world to me.” Gloria curled her lip. “Unfortunately there’s other people besides you to look at me,” she said. “People who really see me.” "I suppose I see you with my heart, rather than with my eyes, Glory,” Dick said quietly. "That’s a good line. Where did you get it? Prom a Valentine?” Gloria asked impudently. The next morning she ate no breakfast. By !* o’clock she was on her way downtown.

And by 9:30 she was sitting in a steam-cabinet in a beauty shop on Ohio street, trying to perspire away a pound or two before lunch. Lunch, she decided, would be a cup of coffee without cream or sugar. It would stimulate her, she figured, without adding an ounce of weight to her body. And Gloria needed something stimulating. Her head swam, and there was a ringing in her ears, as she sat in the reducing cabinet. • * • mT was terrible. Gloria felt as if she were being burned slowat the stake. Marie, the operator, kept putting tcwels wrung out of ice water to her forehead. But they didn’t help much. Gloria kept telling herself that she didn’t care how much she suffered so long as it helped her to get thin. But at last she could stand the heat no longer. “Let me out, Marie!” she cried. “Let me out! I’ve changed my mind! I don’t want to be thin if I have to go through this torture! Let me out this minute!” Marie gave her a.n enormous turkish towel to wrap herself in, and told her to lie down on the wicker couch to rest. “You’re just like all my ladies,’’ Marie said. “They all say they’ll never get in the cabinet again. But next day they’re back for another sweating! . . . Get on the scales, Mrs. Gregory, and we’ll see how much you've lost.” Gloria had lost almost a pound in weight. She clapped her hands. “Well, isn’t that wonderful! In Just that short time!” she cried delighted. ”1 should say I will come back tomorrow, Marie! I should worry how much it hurts! It's worth it! ’ "Now, there’s just one hitch in this reducing stunt,” Marie told her. “Sometimes when a wonyan loses flesh too quickly, her face sags. Don’t you think Id better give you a facial treatment to tone up the muscles? I notice you’re getting a double chin.” A double chin! Horrors! Gloria snatched up a hand mirror and peered into it. Yes. . . . Marie was right. There was no doubt that there was a creased fullness under her chin. “Isn’t that terrible?” she appealed to Marie. “Can you really massage it away. “Massage? Massage has gone out of style,” Marie told her. “We pat double chins and wrinkles away now with these little paddles.” She picked up two tiny ivory Implements shaped like tennis rackets and showed them to Gloria. "Japanese women have used them for centuries, and they have the smoothest skins of any women on earth,” she went on.
G r ~~~ LORIA lay back In the long leather chair before the miri_— ror and closed her eyes. She winced as Marie wrapped her face in steaming- towels, lathered it with a sweet-smelling cream and began to smack it smartly with the little ivdry paddles. “I hope you’re not ruining my looks. 1 have a heavy date at 2 o'clock,” she said. She would hate to have Stanley V.'ayburn see her with her face red as a lobster from Marie’s strenuous treatment! “I’m not," Marie answered placidly. "You’ll look like a million dollars when I finish with you. I'm against most beauty treatments, but this is really good for the skin.” ”1 used to say,” she went on, “that there was nothing like good, cold water for the complexion. And that was all right back in the old days when there wasn't so much smoke and dirt in the world. But these Puzzle a Day President Coolidge says that something must be done to help our railroads, for while some lose money others gain huge sums, A short road near Colorado of a little less than a thousand miles must be cut in half. The engineers have been figuring and have found many ways, some practical and some impractical. One method cuts the mileage in half and gets nothing left. How is this done? Hast puzzle inswer: Airs. Smith should receive 6 apples and 2 pears for her 12 cents and Mrs. Brown 3 apples and 1 pear. (For 12 cents is 2-3 of 18 cents. There are 9 apples, 2-3 of 9 equal 6 apples; there are 3 pears; 2-3 of 3 equal 2 pears). This is the only correct answer, since the cost of pears and apples is different.

days you’ve got to get right down into the pores with a good cream No, she wasn’t as pretty as she had been. There was a hard look in her eyes, and fat was certainly not becoming to her! What had happened to her during these 'few months of marriage to make her look this way? Gloria wondered if all the cocktails and the wild parties had had anything to do with it? Or her worry to get the grime out of them!” Gloria didn’t answer. She had gone to sleep—utterly exhausted. She did not waken while Marie powdered and rouged her face, and brushed mascara along her brows and lashes. "Please take all that stuff off my eye-lashes,” she said, when Marie had finally wakened her by shaking her briskly. “It makes me look like a clown.” “It does not. It makes you look like a great big wax doll,” Marie said. "To my way of thinking you're a lot better looking with your eyes touched up a bit.... Don’t make the mistake of thinking you’re one of the women who don’t need makeup, Mrs. Gregory! Only one woman in a thousand is so pretty that she doesn’t need it!” Gloria stared at her crestfallen. Then she looked into the mirror. She bad -always thought that she was the one woman in a thousand who beautiful that she didn’t need more than the lightest touch of rouge and powder to make her as ravishing as Helen of Troy! Could it be that she was losing her looks? She studied her face In the bril-liantly-lighted mirror, over Stanley Wayburn?... .Well, he’d be gone soon, at any rate. Gloria, at that moment, wished that he had gone already. And yet, her heart soared like an early-rising lark as she went out into the street to meet him. • • HAT have you done to your face?” were Stan’s first J words of greeting as she drove up beside him. “Oh, I didn’t do it. It was done to me,” Gloria laughed, rubbing a finger across her darkened eyebrows. “Marie, the beauty specialist, says I’m not pretty enough to suit her. So she fixed me up. How do you like me this way?” “I don't,” Wayburn „ answered bluntly. “I don't know where all you girls get this idea that we men like to see you all colored up like a barber pole.” “ Men hate cheeks of chalk,’ ” Gloria quoted glibly. "They hate cheeks of sun-proof paint, too,” Wayburn said stubbornly. I “Oh, I know that. There’s no pleasing you men!" Gloria answered. “If we’re pale you want us rosy. And If we're rosy, you want us to be pale! Dick wants a home-mak-ing wife, so he marries me....and I'm a gadfly.” * • • S' - "' HE stopped suddenly, struck by an an asting thought. “Stan,” she said, “what kind of a woman wpuld you want for a wife?” “None at all,” Waybum answered. "Not even one with money? You always said you’d marry a woman if she had money enough, you remember,” Gloria said. “I know, hut I've a hunch I’m going to make money myself from now on,” the actor told her with one of his Infrequent bursts of frankness. "This New York engagement looks pretty good to me.

At least, Sonya Chotek says it is a good thing. “Sonya Chotek!” Gloria exclaimed. "Do you mean to say she found this job for you?” Jealousy swept over her like a wave of heat from a furnace. Wayburn nodded. “She suggested to the manager of the show... .Mangold, his name is ... .that. I’d do for the leading man.” he said easily. "So I’m going on for the try-out. Os course, I may be a blooming failure. You never can tell.” Gloria was silent. She would never have given Stan that S2OO if she had known he was going down to New York to Sonya Chotek with it! • • • 1 HEY were out in the open I I I country now. * 1 ' The day was perfect. Here and there the white sail of a cloud floated across the dark blue sky. There were dandelions in the tangle of wild grass that edged the pavemfent. And In the budding branches of the trees robins were singing that song of theirs that is as sweet and cold and gay as spring Itself. Gloria stopped her car at the edge of the road. “What s the matter now?’’ Wayburn asked. “Nothing,” Gloria answered. "Only if you don't like my face this way I'm going to change it.” She took out a small handkerchief and began to rub the mascara from her eyes and the rouge from her cheeks. Waybum lifted the shadowy brim’ of her hat on one side and looked at her. He saw that she was crying. “Well, what’s the matter with you?” he asked (To Be Continued)
