WHO'S WHO AND WHAT'S II4PPRNK.D.

RICHARD BRABANT, a ucceasful young lawyer, has suggested a years leavp of absence for his bored wife,' SALLY, hoping: that she will learn enough of rife to become less a butterfly and more a helpmate. She begins by meeting a childhood friend, K KITH GII-BKRT. always labeled "Dangerous," while on her way to tea with . BARBARA LANE, an old-fashioned wife, and PATRICIA liORING, a modern flapper who is out to capture Gilbert and la much surprised when at a big costume ball, she meets Sally with him and LEE CRAIG, a young woman who has become famous for her magazine covers. t CHAPTER XIV A FAR-REACHING ENCOUNTER They stepped into the elevator In the lobby of the theatre, and were

whisked up to the roof, with tys glass-

floored runway over the dancing noor, Its crowded, tiny tables, and gorgeously curtained stage. All about them were women dressed as Sally would have been If Keith Gilbert had been her escort. Her black frock was lindeniably smart, and her little hat had arrived from Paris only a few days before, yet she felt uncomfortable because she was not in evening clothes. She looked long at Barbara, whose face was beaming; Bar

he repeated

lati Klnmpta across the dance

thoughts on Keith Gilbert wondering what new diversion he would have to offer her on the morrow. His devo

tion made a satisfactory background for her thoughts. Then suddenly, she gripped her hands till the nails cut her delicate, scented flesh. . Keith Gilbert was setting Just across the floor from her, his eyes intently fixed on his companion. The girl turned her head, running a slim hand up through her black, bobbed hair. Sally leaned back, her throat contracting. The girl to whom he was devoting himself was Pats Loring. Unreasoning anger swept over Sally. Keith Gilbert had never told her that he did not go out with other women when she could not be with him; in

fart, there had been so few evenings: when they were not together that those few had not been worth mentioning, and he had always contrived to let her know where he was. How dared he go out with Pats, who had tried so hard to get him, and would feel that this was a distinct victory? They began to dance; Sally, flinching, watched Pats' arm slip around his neck, saw her fluffy hair brush against his lips, and watched him smile when the girl tilted her head back and laughted up at him. They would see her see her with these quietly dressed people, and Pats would be amused. She . would laugh at the thought of Sally's being a wallflower, Bitting on the side lines with sweet, staid Barbara and good hearted Andy and his stolid business associate, while she carried off the prize. "Want to dance?" Sally turned at the sound of a pleasant voice and

found that Neal Calhoun was standig beside her chair. "This music is too

good to waste." Sally hesitated, imperceptibly; could she let the maliciously gleeful Pats see her make a fool of herself with this man who probably couldn't dance at all? She glanced up at him and made a swift decision. After all, she

knew that Keith had wanted to spend j

ihe evening with her; why flatter Pats by being jealous of her? It took but a moment to show her one of her mistakes. Neal Calhoun could dance, and dance remarkably well. He laughed at the surprise that opened her eyes wide as he dropped

into a curious, shuffling step that almost caught her napping. "Thought I was pure boob because I come out of the West, didn't you?", he laughed. "Or wasn't I worth your thinking about?" Even as she answered him Sally was making' a vow never to judge a person so lightly again. "You haven't had any eyes for me . all evening,' 'he went on, calmly. "If j you had, I think I might have held your interest for a moment or two. ' What was it somebody " "H'lo, Sally," Pats voice called j lightly as she danced past, and Calhoun's quick eyes caught the flush I

that stained Sallys cheeks as she nodded to the girl and to Gilbert. "Why, that's funny do you know " he broke off short, staring after them. Sally looked up wonderingly. "Do I know them?" she finished for him. "Yes, of course; they're both

great friends of mine." "Both" He repeated incredulously. "Do you moan that that man " There was a moment's heavy, significant silence, as he stared down at her and she, puzzled, met his eyes un-i flinchingly. Then Calhoun broke it, ! saying: ! "Sorry I startled you; that chape i looks so much like a man whom you . couldn't possibly know that I made j the mistake of thinking it was he." "Yes?" Sally's voice was silky. "And this man who is he?" I 1

incredulously. ran into him. He was mixed up In a lot of queer deals over there and since I came back I've heard of him several times. But it can't matter to you who he is you'll never meet him." "No, probably not," agreed Sally. They returned to their table as the music stopped, and Sally refused to look toward the fable where Keith Gilbert and Pats were laughing and talking together. She rather expected Keith to come over to her when the music began again, but he danced again with Patricia, arid they left immediately afterward, just as the mid

night show was beginning. j She wondered where they would go. Probably the crowd was gathered somewhere; perhaps they'd all drive out to one of the country clubs; she could imagine them gathered about a great fireplace, Pats sitting ou' the arm of Keith's chair, no doubt, gazing at him admiringly. Sally turned hot with jealousy would he laugh up at Pats at he so often did at her, with that curious expression in his hazel eyes that made her feel hot and then shivery in the same instant? Lee would be there, probably, tired, scathing clever at somebody's ex

pense. Guy Selden would openly take notes and use her witttcisms in his next play. Somebody would start the phonograph perhaps and Keith would sing, in the lazy, deep voice that never failed to stir Sally so. "I'm sorry but I really must go; I'm quite worn out," she found herself saying to Barbara. She felt that she would begin to laugh and cry hysterically if she couldn't be alone. .

GROWING JEALOUSY The party that finally sat down at Mrs. Parke's luncheon table was seven instead of the six planned for. "I seem to be the only rooster In this hen party," Humphrey remarked brightly, when' they filed out to the dining room. . .' ,

"And you weren't invited,", Millie

i snapped, her anger' getting the better j of her courtesy, i "But you are welcome, nevertheless,"

Mrs. Parke put in with a graciousness rare in her. The party was in honor of Patty's return, so Patty sat at one end of the table, her mother at the other, and Humphrey, as the odd one, was placed between Mrs. Werner, president of the Thanatopsis club, and the leading social light of the town, and Maude, whom he detested.' The luncheon was the sort considered correct in Wlssakeagan. It started with bouillon in two handled cups, went on to chicken croupuettes with peas and potatoes some hostesses introduced a touch of originality by putting the chicken and cream sauce into patty cups from Schmultze's bakery

then a salad and ice cream with pink'

and yellow 'jukes. Mrs. Parke's Betty always managed

this sort of luncheon very well, and as this, was a special occasion, Bridget was loaned to help in the kitchen. The luncheon, unfortunately, was not a success. Humphrey felt himself subdued by so many women, the women slightly restrained by the presence of one man. Cora had heard a particularly choice bit of scandal which she wanted to relate, but it was not the sort of story she felt she could tell in mixed company. After the possibilities of the weather had been exhausted, the conversation languished. Mrs. Werner, ' social leader, felt she must come to the rescue. -, "Now, Patty, as I haven't been favored with any delightful letters during your trip, I want to know all about it. There must have been many delightful incidents that you did not write about." Patty colored a litle. She did not

came from New York. We had a little suite to ourselves, two tiny bedrooms and a living room between. Her mother sent her old oak furniture for it, just the thing for such a building. Mary did not like college pennants and

stuck about, so our quarters were rath-i er different from those of most of the girls. Mary was rather serious, Mary taught me a great deal, things not even college could give." Her gray eyes loked over their heads, her mouth drooped. Mary had been very dear to her. "Was she the girl that died?" Maude asked abruptly. "Yes. She took a chill early in the spring after basketball practice. She wouldn't go to the doctor and she dedeveloped a cold and then pneumonia. I'd met her mother at Christmas, Mary took me to New York for the Christmas holidays. Her mother was sailing then for France. She got back just before Mary died. She she was broken up and ill herself for awhile." "She was the lady you traveled with, wasn't sheT'VMrs. Werner prompted. "Yes," Patty answered, mindful of her sister's pride, and careful not to be drawn into an admission that she was a "paid companion." "She was

too many photographs and dance cards I told to travel for a year, the doctors

thought constant change of scenery would help her. And as I had been such an intimate friend of her daughter and as she could not go alone, she wired me and asked me to travel -with her for the year." . .1 "Now, wasn't that generous of her, and traveling so expensive these days," Maude exclaimed. "I'm sure she was more than repaid by the pleasure of having Patty's company," put in Mrs. Werner, always determined to be gracious and not above fishing for a little information as to whether Patty was paid for the trip, or simple taken! But Patty simply smiled sweetly, her eyes down, a t;mile that might be amusement or might be politeness hovering around her lips. - -:. "I guess she just was," Humprhey boomed out." She didn't pay bo much for her society. But little sister liked chasing around the country, didn't you, sis?" - - - AffecMonally he leaned to smile at her. Millie, eyes sullen, heart jealous, sat silently across the table.

Admiration, attention groups of eager young men awaiting her appearance and more partners than she can dance with this makes girlhood days the happiest time of a woman's To miss this popularity is a tragedy.

girl, is always distinguished by a fresh, radiant skin. How to have this perfect complexion is the problem of many girls, ,but we can solve it for you. It's a simple secret, discovered many thousand years ago. What spoils complexions Every day your skin accumulates a coating of dust, dirt and general soil. Every day you apply powder, and every day most women use a little or much cold cream. This dirt, powder and cold cream penetrates the tiny skin pores and fills them. Perspiration completes

the clogging. You can judge for yourself what happens if you fail to wash these accumulations away. Once a day your skin needs careful, thorough cleansing to remove these clogging deposits. Otherwise you will soon be afflicted with coarseness, blackheads and blotches. How soap beautifies Mild, pure, soothing soap, such as Palmolive, is a simple yet certain bcautifier. Its profuse, creamy lather penetrates the network of skin pores and dissolves all dangerous deposits. Gentle rinsing carries them away.

When your skin is thus cleansed, it quickly responds with fresh, smooth radiance. The healthful stimulation results in natural becoming color. And the lotionlike qualities of the Palmolive lather keeps j'our complexion delightfully soft. . Now, when your skin is healthfully clean, is the time to apply cold 'cream. Now, powder and that touch of rouge are harmless. You can perfect your good complexion and beautify -one not so good by the means of this simple cosmetic cleansing. Cleopatra's way With all classic peoples, bathing was a daily rite never neglected. The ruins of Cleopatra's sumptuous marble bath are ample proof of her faith in this ancient beauty secret. Palm and olive oils were the cleansers used the same bland oriental oils we blend scientifically in Palmolive. The lotion-like qualities which made them the most highly prized of all old world beautifiers are imparted to Palmolive Soap. A 10-cent luxury ' The vast volume in which we produce Palmolive to supply the world-wide demand naturally lowers cost. If made in small quantities the, price Would be at least 25 cents. Manufacturing economy permits us to offer this finest facial soap for only 10 cents. Tlvus you can afford to share Cleopatra's favorite luxury. Use Palmolive for bathing and let it do for your1 body what it does for your face. .
