Only the radicals believed Manotnello innocent. And sometimes they grew very angry with the ot hers. I don't believe in capital pun- ; nment." Molly remarked one day. I think it u a blight on civilizav.on. But T suppose there's something to be said for it. Tnie it helps u- gc? rid of men like this gunman.'’ Do you moan. ‘ demanded one of radical That you think men should be electrocuted, whether or pot they may properly be found ruiltv of murder? Do you believe ;n trumping up charges against them, in order to find them falsely guilty, that they may be killed for a crime of which they are innocent ?” I believe,'* she declared rashly, ••that every gunman is a potential murderer and as such should suffer the penalty of our mandates of .lustier.” The young radical sprang angrily his feet. "It's you and your sort." he cried, “with the injustice of your damn convictions that have made America the hotbed of Bolshevism it is today !"

T don't care." she announced petulantly. “I'm fed up on this wretched trial anyhow." It. was Friday, and court did not r. on Saturday. Impulsively Molly decided !<• go to New York for over Sunday. It had been a long time since she had seen -lack. \3 they left the dining room. Slim drew her aside. "Now don't tell me I'm crazy/' he commanded, “and don t forget that I'm old enough to know what I'm talking about. You're going to get m trouble, if you don't lay off Man-
ninello. You're signing your stories, and laying things on pretty thick. Wharton says our circulation has jumped 25.000. Maybe it has. What's ■h* blooming circulation worth, if it costs you your neck?" Molly tried to laugh. “You don't ,hink they'd shoot me. Slim?" That's just what I think." he told her shortly. “You notice T don't akr any chances? Not on your life J don't I've toned down my stuff, since they sent Tony Tommy from Chicago, to give us news hounds the once over." “I'm not afraid!" she boasted. “That's' because you haven't cense enough." hr Informed her. Tha r s what they'll say "hen they nrite your obituary . . . 'l’m not afraid.' she said. And they'll call ,ou the Brave Young Reporter and •he Beautiful Little Martyr, and ..•md some swell floral pieces to the funeral. And what good will that do you? Now watch your step. Molly, and do as I tell you. Lay off before some of these Chicago gunmen take \ou for a nice little rid?. It's been done to cirls before, you know." "Its for your own good." he insisted. Well I'm going to New York for t tie week-end." she told him. “And Li', have to tear off Saturday's and Sunday's stories in a hurry Suppose I write the old sob stuff about the poor little bride and the love rest on Thirteenth street?" "Go ahead " he urged. "Probably "Wharton won't use it. but it's bet;rr to set in wrong with the office Mian the racketeers.." Molly wired two discreet stories a lint night, and telegraphed the office that she wos going to New York and would be back on the job Monday morning. Then she telephoned Jack to meet her at the Grand Central. 4 s b tt DURING the journey she wrote several paces of dialog intended for the play on which she and

Red n ere to collaborate. They had decided that a eood name would be ■ The Death of Delphine barrows.' The curtain was to rise on Dclphine's beribboned boudoir, with Delphine. white and beautiful, dead, between sheets of orchid satin. A young man. in conventional morning clothes, with a gardenia in his buttonhole, would rise from his knees by the side of the bed. and dash from the room. Immediately the curtain would be lowered. The second act would be in a courtroom. In the prisoner's cage would be another man—charged with the murder of Delphine Darrows Near him. with eyes fastened maliciously upon the accused, would sit the young man who had rushed from the dead woman's bedroom. Molly was working on the courtroom scene. Trying to inject humor, to relieve tragedy. Fearful lest she lose something of the dramatic possibilities. The cut-and-dned courtroom technique was simple, but she must keep it keyed at high tension. The prosecuting attorney's charge mils' be pregnant with thunderous words and dreadful imprecations. The dread shadow of the electric chair must hover over the pale dark man in the prisoner's cage. And the audience must feel the ghost of the dead woman, as the sinister prosecutor conjured her presence. Molly worked until the train pulled into the station. Then she powdered her nose, and rouged her lips until they matched the scarlet tips of her tn-colored scarf Jack was waiting at the gate, and in a moment she was in his arms. “Oh. Jack! Jack!" “Molly!’’ he cried. It's good to see you." They kissed fervently while redcapped porters grinned. How did you happen to get away?” he demanded “Oh. I was led up on the trial,” she told him airily, "so I wired the Plaza and reserved a room. And here I am." She was clinging to the brief case she carried as though it held diamonds. “I've got something in here to show you. Jack!” she boasted. 'You'll be so surprised, you'll just about die. Let's go somewhere where he can talk and talk." “Your not going to rave about that job of yours?" he demanded darkly. Molly pouted. “Now. see here." she retorted, that. just, reminds me. Mister Wells, you never so much as wrote me a line about what a smart-
JENNY HAD MAKINGS OF A GREAT ACTRESS ’*The House of Joy" Is a Serious Study of People Back Stage in Holland, But Its Appeal is Universal, RY WALTER 1). HICKMAN. THE usly duckling of a poor, but high-blooded Dutch family in Holland ditched her foolish family pride and went acting. Jenny does not. become a full fledged Bernhardt in The Hour of Joy." by Jo Van Ammerskullcr, but she turns out to be a human being with all the faults and glories of a great artist. It is interesting to consider "The. House of Joy" at this time, because it is one of the best sellers and has the honor of being the prize novel of the month for E. P. Dutton & Cos., Inc., the publishers. This novel made a terrific impression in Holland, and it seems to b'' duplicating its success in this country. “The House of Joy" is a
psychological study of the people who make up the theater. Some are famous, while others simply echo the traditions of the stage. In the first part of the story as told by a school teacher who brought to her for the first time in Jenny's life the beauty, the real beauty, of the theater, as well as its worthwhile meaning. Tt is true that when Jenny breaks away from her poor but haughty family and from then on Jenny paddled her own dramatic canoe. The first part of (he book, which is devoted to Jenny's early family life, is one of lofty and haughty i silly beauty. Here is a family with ! a name attempting to live up to family tradition of certain royalty while the worms ate up the family furniture. There is pathetic genius in the way the author causes Jenny to break away from her family that ; attempted to kill the genius in her. The story becomes even bigger writing when Jenny starts her j career on the stage in a small actin;: company. Here we see splendidly that strange complex of an actor trying to be himself in the light 4>i having acted many characters. Here is where the author excels, when she begins digging down underneath human surfaces. She seems to reach the soul and the mind. The result is often cruel, but it sounds straight. "The House of Joy" is important fiction. It is for the more serious minded. You probably will hr asked often 'if you have read "The House of Joy." B B •r PICTURES TELL LINDT'S OWN STORY I have received from G. P. Putnam's Sons a copy of "Lindbergh: His Story in Pictures." This unusual book actually tells
girl I was at the Barrows trial. What did you think of my stories? Were'nt they all right?" Oh. they were all right," he assured her. “if that's the sort of literature you aspire to. What do you say, dear to the Commodore grill? They’ve lobster cocktails with the Russian dressing you like. And we can get a booth where I can kiss you when nobody's looking." She shrugged indifferently. “So you don't think much of my writing,” she pursued icily, when they had found a table. Oh. sure," he parried, “if you like that sort of stuff " “Well, it's worth more money than you can earn," she told him cruelly. Jack flashed painfully. “Molly darling, you didn't come to quarrel with me?" “I didn't come to be insulted either." she said, and bit her lip on an angry little sob. She patted the brief case in her lap. "I've copy here for a play. Jack. Don't- you want to hear it?” “Why of course Ido Are you honestly writing a play. Molly?” “Well. I'm writing it.” she confessed. “but the idea wasn’t mine. You know Red Flynn—l mean I've written you about him. He gave me the idea, and we re collaborating on it." You're not falling in love with him. are you, Molly?" She threw back her head and laughed. “In love with Red!” she cried. When I've a sweetheart like you? Why, honey, Red is homely and crude, and —oh my goodness, he's nobody a girl would look at twice. But he's awfully nice." She was too excited to eat, but told instead of the night that Red and Slim found Perry Ingersoll. Then she took the papers from her brief ca.sc. and read aloud what she had written. Jack listened with ill concealed annoyance. “I don't like it. Molly." he said flatly, when *hc laid the sheets aside, and turned her little radiant face to him. “It's not like you, writing filth and muck. Good Lord, what's come over you!" “I don't understand," she faltered. “Oh. you understand all right," he interrupted brutally. “It's rotten! A sweet little kid like you, running round with police reporters, wanting to write ?. play about a courtesan and a murder. ..." Molly's painted lips trembled. Silently she shuffled her papers together. (To Re Continued.)

by photographs the life history so far of this unusual lad. I know that I received a better idea by looking at the manv photographs in this volume just what Lindbergh accomplished by his flight and by being America's Good Will ambassador. The actual pictures showing his receptions in Paris. Belgium and London as well as Washington and New York will bring to all people a better understanding of how the world welcomed this flying event. I think that this book should be in every home where there is a boy. The selling price is $2.50.

WITCHCRAFT SURVIVAL OF OLD PAGAN FAITHS Hex' Beliefs Traced to Ancient European Religions. By science Ser- ire CAPETOWN.- South Africa, July 24. —Modem belief in witchcraft and witches, such as brought about the famous "hex ' trials in Pennsylvania not long ago. is really an attentuated survival of what was once the serious religion of Europe. So Miss M. A. Murray of University, college. London. told members of ' the British Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science at their meeting here today, The ancient pagan religions of Europe all seem to have been cut out of pretty much the same cloth. The central figure was a great, =hadowy mother-goddess, apparently embodied in such varied mythical personalities as Ceres, Demeter, Cybele, Juno and the northern Fricka. Associated with her was a corresponding male figure, frequently represented as horned. In the early sacrificial rites, human victims were common. Later, .animal substitutes were permitted, but the idea of at leas f sacrifice of a human being persisted.
