When fully purified of coap, the liquid is frozen, for many days, at 109 degrees below zero, in a- carboh. dioxide snow, which ig solidified cac- bon dioxide gas, This freezing causes some of the substances In the liquid to crystallize. These crystals con- tain none of the vitamin but they re- main crystallized when the liquid is melted, and can be raked out leaving the mixture one step closer to vita. min A purity. "Afterward the substance is filtered time after time throagh ultra-porous solids which take out still further impurities, The result is the ex- tremely potent pale yellow oil.

Jean Graham and her brother, Euan, visiting the Riviera, stay with Geoffrey Winton and his wife, Boreen: Doreen involved Euan in gambling debts at. the Casino and Jean is anxious to get him away. 'She meets Jerry Grant and Dan Washburn, who ofter to drive her home. now GO ON WITH THE BTORY, It was not far to the villa and ehortly they drove through the gates and up the drive.' The young men got out to help the girls and Jean found herself again shaking "hands with Grant, thanking © him .and saying Goodnight. Her feelings' of regret embarrassed her and suddenly instead of saying good-bye she heard herself stammering: "W-wont you come in and have a drink?" When the young men accepted she felt a definite lightening of the spiric and led the way into the house. A-tray with drinks and glasses was on the table, and Jean waved to it. "Do help yourselves." Grant, however, turned to Jean, "Your father is Sir Colin Graham, the explorer, isn't he?" "Yes, How do you know?" "You're very like him. 'I met him in Egypt last autumn, He was just starting off into the desert. I wanted to go with him, but his party was made up." ; thy, "0, whdt a pity." Jean sympathized with a readiness which warmed the young man's heart. Grinning broad- ly, he suggested: "Perhaps you'll : ake it up to me." "How?" "Come and play 1 the Open Tennis Tournament with ..e. I'm sure you play well." - Jean stared hel lassly, In all the odious fortnight s' : had spent at the Wintons not one nvitation half so desireable had con : her way, and yet she must refuse ii. Disappointment nearly choked her, rut she swallowed it down and said: "I wish I could, Liut we are leaving in the morning." The young man': face fell. "You're not?" ; The fair head n dded. "Q, I say!" : The two starcl at one another without concealing their dismay. The only real girl he had seen in months, thought Grant, taking in the slender figure, the sunny hair and pale golden skin. Her eyes, too, were like pools with flecks of sunlight in them. "0, look here, you can't,' he Iiro- tested, " y Her hands made a faintly resigned gesture, NEE 3 "I'm afraid we must." Excepting for Euan she might have stayed, but he must come first. If he got iito serious trouble, she would never be able to face her father. - "Gosh," sighed Washburn exagger- aiedly. "It's another of those tragic cases where ships pass in the night!" They all laughed, and Grant put down his glass. : "Thanks for the reminder, Dan. We must move on. I'm awfully sorry you're going, Miss Graham." Jean was so sorry that she was ashamed, afd to conceal it said a rather abrupt good-bye. In a moment the young men drove away, and turn- ing back to the room, Jean wondered what Helen was thinking of her. But th: elder woman was pulling on her Tdown. "It's only me," he said, flashing on| tke light, Jean sat up, blinking dazedly. "What is it, Evan?" "Have you any aspirin? feels like a rattle." "There, in the drawer." Jean watch- ed her brother fiddle amongst her things and wondered bout the head of his. His too good-looking face was flushed, and she guessed that*he had been drinking. Bu. after gulping down two tablets of aspirin, he flashed his engaging smile at her. "I say, old girl; some pyjamas!" Jean 'lay down again, ; "Do go t¢ bed, Euan. start off early." "Not before eleven, Can't be done," he retorted, Instead of going, he hesi- tated at the foot of the bed. "I say, Jeannie, I wish you wouldn't be so snorty to MaX de Laurier, He's not a bad sort really, and he thinks the world of you." . Anger born of dismay flashed up in Jean's eyes as she starfed at her brother. Anyway, why had his mind changed so completely? Only a few days ago, he had been calling the Baron an "Oily Bounder and a Casino Crab." i : "Well, he may think the world of me, but I don't think of him at all if I can help it. Now do go and get sone sleep," she replied, curling down beneath the sheets, Euan however continued to stand at the foot of the bed, and finally said, with a rather defiant peevishness: "All right, but I hope you'll be de- cent to him when he joins us in Paris." "What!" Jean leaned up on her el- bows again, | Euan laughed. "You needn't look like that. ed him." ; "But why?" 4 "0, IT dunno. and damned rich. "Euan!" But the young man paid no heed te his sister's cry beyond chuckling and switching off the light. 'When the door had closed behind kim, Jean lay She was sleepy no longer and stared into the darkness from wide, tear-filled eyes. Really Euan was im- possible. What was to become of him? Would she always be able to keep him out, of mischief? It seemed a rather ungrateful task and was becoming very wearying. Besides, would he never learn? And what lay behind this new craze of his for Max de Laurier? She saw the Frenchman very clearly in the darkness, and dis- liked him. He was too polished; his hair, his nails and his manners. His clothes were too 'immaculate, his waist too defined, his lips against his olive skin were too full and red. Every- thing about him spoke of money. It was his money which Euan admired; it blinded him to the character of the man, Really Euan was going too far in-asking him to join them in Paris. Whatever could he be thinking of? A sense of apprehension amounting al: most to fear descended upon her, She] Lad thought that when they left Monte Carlo her worries would be over, But now it seemed that it was not to be 0, A tear overflowed and trickled down Jean's cheek.

To her surprise, he was in an excellent 'mood and seemed to have entirely recovered from his headache of the night before, "Almost as if 'he were relieved about something," irgly. PA At mid-day, however, with much horn-tooting from Euan and reciprocal shrieks of farewell from Doreen, they slid down the drive and through the gates, But instead of turning to the right, Euan turned towards the town, "Euan, where are you going?" "To Monte." "But we're so late." "T won't be long. old Max." "Baron de , Laurier!" exclaimed Jean, "But you saw him last night." "Yes, I've thought of something, though," 'Euan replied vaguely, "You needn't come if you don't want to." It was useless to protest or to ques- tion him further Jean knew from ex- perience, and they drove to the Hotel de Paris in silence. When Euan had gone in, she moved into the driving seat and drove herself to the post of- fice, where she sent off a small parcel; then having nothing else to do, went back tothe hotel, left the car and waited in the lounge. There were few people about, but she sat down, called a waiter and ordered some coffee.

Alfonso also announced that the allowance formerly paid to his eldest soni as heir-presumptive to the Span- ish throne would be considerably re- duced in future and that the difference would go to the ex-King's third som, Prince Juan Carlos. The latter, at present a courtesy cadet in the British nevy, is now considered by the ex- King as his heir. The only concession made to the eldest son was a promise to-pay the doctors' bill for his recent treatment in Switzerland, where he maryied last June 21; he pleaded earnestly with his father at their dramatic meeting in a small hotel drawing-room for recognition of his morganatic marriage, but that the ex-King was adamant.
