Synagsis A luxurious five-month cruise around the world abodrd the "Marcnia" brings together a group of passengers for adven- tures, romantic, entertaining . . . "and tragic . . . Like in "Grand Hotel" these passengers offer a study in human actions and re- actions which unconsciously bare their souls. . . . These characters are aboard the ship: Macduff, dour Scotchman, single, of middle age; M'ss Mudge, school teacher, spending the savings of 20 years; Angela, faithful wife of Lovat, gigolo; Dick harlton, first offi- cer; Clare, a person of experi- ence; Joan, a dissipated flapper; Jenny, run-away wife, and Peter; Captain Baring, master of the ship . . . and his soul. . . NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. "Promise me you will for a week." His voice was urgent. Joan laughed in his face. "All right; it's a go," she said, © "beginning today. Watch me." "Good girl!" : Funny, thought Dick, walking away from the dining-room, he . was teaching one woman to drink and another to swear off. Un- doubtedly it was the rizht pre- scription in both cases. He could- n't imagine that Miss Mudge was ever going to touch a drop when she returned to the States. Mcan- while, it would be a pity if she went home to Ohonto without a few memories of downright wick- edness, CHAPTER X It was a great relief to have all these people off the boat. Three weeks of comparative: free- dom! His face was puckered with the sun as he moved away from the rail and passed a row of empty deck chairs. Hello! here was Miss Mudge; still on the boat for some mysterious reason, and under one's feet as usual. Today she was dressed in some sort of ging- ham thing--her tropical costume --with a hat like a coal scuttle upside down, Boy! how he hated white cotton stockings. He stop- ped at her side and greeted her. "Hello! You here?" Miss Mudge was blushing vio- lently. She sat up straight, and _the stockings disappeared from view over the side of her chair. Was he dreaming, or had she paint on her cheeks at broad noonday, and shockingly misap- plied? Good for Miss Mudge? She was getting on. Lipstick and sheer stockings next. "I'm surprised to see you still on the boat," he said. "I thought you'd be on your way across In- dia by this time." . Miss Mudge's responsive face was suddenly lost in a cloud. She * rustled her papers, then lifted her head with a perky air and ans- wered him: "No, I'm not going across India. I'm staying right here on the boat." He checked an exclamation of surprise. Land of Glamor "That's topping," he said. "We're going to have fun togeth- er. I always stay with the boat, ay sYRY TRY IT -- TOMORROW Issue No. 26--'38 Word C s0 I shall show you Bombay. Shall we start tonight?" Miss Mudge brightened, like a lamp that has just been lit. "That's very kind of you, Mr, Charlton. I'm sure India couldn't be any better than the Holy Land." "Were you so impressed by that?" "More than words can tell." Her voice sank to an awed whis- per. 'Jerusalem was just like the colored Bible scrolls we used to have in our Sunday school. It seemed so strange, after all these centuries, to see men walking the cobbled streets with their crooks and their beards, and looKing the same as they did in our Lord's day. - And I'll never forget the night we drove up from the Dead Sea and thought we saw the Star of Bethlehem, Agatha always wanted to see Gethsemane and the River Jordan, so I've brought her a bottle of water from the river, Agatha's never even been to New York.". Miss Mudge's voice trailed off --in-a- diminuendo of feeling. Yes, the Holy Land had glamor. The train whirled through the Indian night and dust poured in the windows like desert sand. An- gela lay awake, staring at the shadows on the ceiling in the stuf- fy compartment she shared with Patty and Mrs. Minton. Pounding wheels beat on her brain, disturb- ingly different from the vibra- tion of the boat. Patty tossed un- easily on her hard bed behind the green curtain that shut her off from Angela. Her aunt slept peacefully, with all her anxious nights behind her in the past. "Patty," whispered Angela, "are you asleep, dear? I thought I heard you tossing." : "No, I'm wide awake and chok- ing with dust." "Isn't it frightful? down to my lungs. you sleeping?" "Oh, I have a little demon at It's right Why aren't © work. I can't close my eyes. Aunt Neil is sleeping like the dead. She always does. It's an ecasy con- science. Toss me a cigarette, An- gela, please." "Perhaps if we were to put out this beastly corridor light things would be better, It's just like a green eye winking in on us." "Here's my scarf. Hang it over the transom." "That's a bright idea. suppose it will stock." i Patty's strong young arms manoeuvred a temporary screen and she lay quiet, in darkness that was now complete. "Angela," she said at last, "I'm going" straight out to the Taj the minute we ar- rive at Agra, for the moonlight is perfect tonight and we mightn't I don't catch it again. Tomorrow night it might rain." None of them felt like luncheon when they returned to their hotel from seeing the Taz and the Gan- ges at Agra, India. They found Macduff at work on _ a new kind of cocktail. He was getting on with his list. He had crossed off the Blue Blazer in Jerusalem, the Sidecar at Shep- heard's, the Jaberwock at the Mena House, the Bombay Special at Bombay, the Thunderclap at Agra, and was now due to try the Union Jack at Benares. He shad decided: not to go out on the. Ganges, for he had been there before and knew the worst. In any event, he had a poor opin- ion of a race that did not drink. He was enjoying himself consid- erably and had no desire to look at the spindly legs of so many miserable men, It pleased him to sit on a wide and shady verandah with a glass in front of him, and a fakir trying to screw a penny out of his pocket. - Macduff chuckled to himself at the mere idea of anyone getting a farthing for nothing from him. He was really enjoying the voyage more than he would admit. The rois- terers were settling down, and no- body bothered him now. Miss Mudge was a bore--too skitter- ish. He had avoided her ever since Monte Calro. Mrs. Wynant scemed like a sensible person, but he thought it dangerous to pass thd time of day to any woman on a boat; she might turn out to be another Mrs, Langford, His place in the bar was sacred now. He had glared every intrud- er out of his corner seat, and it was just as much boycotted as if a placard were up: "Reserved for Macduff, The dog will bite. (To Be Continued) 2 " the colors.

Wear a hat outdoors if you want to keep your hair. The *hatless fad" = which up- crops every spring because of the notion that lots of sunshine will stop hair from falling and make . it grow faster is in reality a major cause of baldness. "Going bareheaded outdoors is especially harmful in spring and summer," according 'to a scalp specialist, . "While it is true that the hair, like vegetation, grows faster in summer, both the. scalp and hair often become seared and bleached by too much sun. "Harmful effects inevitably re- sult from steady exposure of the bare head to the two kinds of rays, ultra-violet and infra-red in direct sunlight, although both rays are beneficial in moderate 'doses'. "Sparingly, infra-red rays are a stimulant, especially to the scalp's blood system, while the ultra-violet expertly applied, have a tonic and ¢hemical effect on the scalp tissues. "An excess of ultra-violet rays, however, dries the scalp and fades the hair. The hair becomes lus- treless and brittle, breaking off or splitting at the ends."

If you examine a spectrum, such as a rainbow, you will not find black or white among White is only found in pure light, and is a combina- tion of all the colors; thus, when it is refracted, it breaks up Into the well-known spectrum. In it- self it is not a color. Black, on the other hand, is a total absence of all color, and it absorbs all hues that shine upon it, giving off none itself, 25-Pound Trout Goes Info Records ORILLIA, Ont.--William Weis- mantel, of Springfield, N.Y., went - a-fishing near here last week and " caught, a 26-pound trout, believed one of the largest on record.

She won't permit-any the room, e writes, "and show them he when necessr -,"" it: the teacher wo or she meant ft, they would get order. I would warn Yupils polite- ly but. firmly and if/ they didn't heed warning I would use some oth- er method." ) "Be Modern" Then she discovers another fact. "Ever since 1 have been going t school you usually hear from the teacher it you are chewing gum. I suppose it takes the child's mind off his: work rnd also isn't very po- lite. But I would let my pupils chew it because 1 believe it would help some of them to concentrate. I would be as modern as I could for I think the pupils will take more in. terest in you."

Draper, of Toronto, told the Police Association of Ontario last week in Guelph at the first an- nual revolver competition banquet. The cause of honesty and de- cency was bound to suffer unless law-abiding citizens assumed their responsibilities-and supported po- lice in their warfare against crime, said General Draper, Un- fortunately some citizens allowed themselves to be carried away by the opinions of those who talked most but knew least, about the characteristics of the criminal class. Common Sense Attitude "It would become them better to substitute for their sentimen- tality for the criminal a little common sense in the interests of . the forgotten men -- the decent' citizen--instead of flowers for the crook," said the- Toronto police chief. 'Even in some of our news- papers and magazines there is a tendency towards the glorification of the criminal in his fight against society and law enforcement." "Crime is not confined to given - localities," said General Draper, "It is general in its field of opera tion. Surely, then, the incapaci- tated and aged of our forces should be entitled to proper care and retirement when they yield: place to more active combatants."

The Australian "makes the love- liest husband in the world," de- clares Mrs. Pauline Budge, of Syd- ney, founder of the new Australe ian Woilien's Party, in reply to Professor John Dollard, of the Yale University Institute of 'Hu- man Relations, who has recently . published the 'résult 'of his 're- séarches into the 21 distinguishing American characteristics. "The" Australian," she says, "is strong and 'healthy, sporting, and has a sense of sporting fairness, He is a good mixer, 'democratical- ly-minded, tolerant of everything excdpt 'hypocrisy and' kind to his - womenfolk. But he is not perfect, thank goodness! "He is casual to an extent that leaves him too apathetic to the af- fairs of state, and; although he has splendid strength of character, he has a predisposition towards in- ferority complex. But my own daughter prefers an Australian man to any other as a husband."
