The Apollo Bunder, the ateway to India, rose magnificent Jean a fleckless stretch of blue. heat haze shimmered over the aters, and small craft sped llke vhite-winged birds to thehr destina- ons, Angela stood on the top deck dnd watched the city taking shape at the water's edge. Far to the left he could see a fringe of green -- alabar Hill, overhanging Bombay. The ship heav ed and turned to a eaceful anchorage. A tender came puffing importantly to her side. And when the boat ceased throbbing at Jast, Angela's ears continued to drum, a faint echo that would not Jeave her, ¢Good-morning, Mrs, Wynant." "Good-morning, My. Charlton." "Well, it's India at last, I must confess I like it as little as any of the countries I know." "1 like it, nevertheless." "You should see it in a typhoon, the water breaking against the under." "perhaps we shall." "Not a chance at this time of the ear, Well, I've got to be going on bout my business." The Old Game ) Dick swung off, and Angela went own to the lower deck to get on he tender, Her fellow passengers were tired and sulky today, There had been a dance the night before. ' She stepped ashore, and the first of the fakirs crossed her path, with his snake and mongoose already in - action. It amused her to watch him, ough she saw at once that it was he old game. The snake was not flled, but: popped surreptitiously Into the sack for further use. Angela sauntered under her para- sol, alive to the drama around her, When she had had enough, she took & car and drove to the Towers of Silence. There, from the Hanging ardens, she could see the roofs of Bombay, flat and white, stretching along the ocean front. The Marenia was a dot in the distance. Angela thought of Lovat. What could she get him that would in- terest him at all? Something for his - 6wn adornment would please him most, 'although it was difficul. to ick up suitable gifts for a smart. oung-man-about-town. She sighed and noticed that Peter had walked into the lounge with Clare. He look- 4a more bronzed than ever in his rajah suit. She was radiant fn a uit of cream-coloured silk, a few #hades lighter than' her tanned gkin. There was no sign of Jenny. They found a quiet corner under the palms and ordered drinks. Pe- ter leaned over the table and talked hard to Clare, whose laslres flutter- ed as she listened to what he said. . He wag 80 aboorbed that he had no eyes fos 'any one else in the lounge. Excursion Ashore Johnny walked into the lounge and glanced in the direction of Pe- ter and Clare. Ee seemed tg be ag- grieved, and Angel, watching him, felt a little sympathetic as he stood uncertainly at the door. At last he eéame over {o her table and drown. ed his pique in one cocktail after another. A flush crept up on his Jace as he kept his gaze on Clare, who was chatting in the most inti- mate way with Peter. "Where's the lovely Mrs. Rum- ford "today?" he enquired, like one who must torment himself. "I haven't seen her at all," An. gela "told him. "I was the only one of our lot to come ashore on the "tender." Perhaps she overslept -- like me," Dentists recommend Wrigley"s Gum as an aid to strong, healthy . teeth, cleanses them of food par- ticles, massages thegums, Aidsdi- gestion, relieves stu yfeeling after Smeal s. Hel, ps keep you healthy! 0 'Take some home for the children too -- they will love it! ah Issue No, 24--'38 Lo. Cc "Oh, cheer up, Johnny! are not so bad," Angela remarked, staring at his clouded face, Her at- tention wandered around the room, There was Macduff, staring into space, and high-hatting the world with the aid of stiff drink. And here came Jenny, straying into the room with her usual lost air. Her expres- sion in a mirror as her glance rest. ed on Peter and Clare, was tinged with a flush of surprise, and she looked like a bird that has been winged. She moved straight over to the table, dragging a long white scarf behind her, "Peter, I overslept. I'm sorry you didn't waken me," He sprang to his feet. "You look- ed so exhausted, Jenny, so I just let you sleep. You didn't mind my coming on without you, did you? I was going back to get you for lun- cheon," '""Not a scrap, Peter. ing, Mrs. Langford." The Personal Note "Hello, Mrs. Rumford! What a gorgeous shade of green you are wearing! It's- just like turf, and it suggests a lawn in this dusty part - of the world." Clare's voice was flattering, but Jenny shrank from the personal note. She regarded her as an abso- lute stranger, "Well, I'm lunching with John- ny," said Clare, lightly, "I must be getting along." Then, turning to Peter, "You win." We'll have to discuss it again," he said, freezing his voice, but Jen- ny was inattentive, Clare strolled over to the other 'table. "I'm famished for lunch," she announced. "I want some curry, Johnny. We're entering the area of | starvation now." "Sorry, I'm lunching here with others," He was staring at her with a tra- gic air. Secretly Clare hoped that he wouldn't cut his throat or jump into the ocean. Stupid {nfant, she'd teach him a lesson. She leaned over and purred: "All right, John- ny, it doesn't matter a bit. I want to go back to the boat in any event and look up Mr. Charlton. So long. Hope you enjoy your curry." "Damn!" muttered Johnny, and let her go. All afternoon, the Marenia lay at anchor, peacefully, with most of her passengers ashore. They were shopping and seeing the. sights, Joan had slept all day, and- wak- ened just in time to have her cock- tails before dinner. She was going to remain behind because she had known that Dick would not be leav- ing the boat. Three hours later she was com- ing out of the bar when she saw him making for his stateroom. She knew that she was not supposed to go near his quarters; that nothing would offend him more. It was hard to forget the sizzling words he had tossed at her for breaking in on him the night she had been so very drunk and she had tried to rip off her frock in the barroom. * (To Be Continued) Quintuplets Use Two Languages Speak French Mostly but Have Grasp of English The Dionne Quintuplets speak both French, thelr native tongue, and English.

In the morning, I awoke with knees so stiff that it was agony to move them. Special treatment would make the pain a little easier --but that was all. Then a friend recommended Kruschen, which my doctor said I might take. I began with about a coffee-spoonful first thing in the morning. To my sur- prise I found my rheumatic aches and pains disappearing. I kept on with Kruschen, and although I am more than middle-aged, I have been free from pain for two years, and able to go to my office every day." --A.W, Rheumatic. conditions are often the result.of an excess of uric acid in the body. Two of the ingred- -ients of Kruschen Salts have the power of dissolving uric acid crys- tals. Other faired ients assist Na- ture to expel the dissolved crystals through the natural channels.

CORN SALVE BUNION SALVE FOOT POWOER as Anne « New Ideas in Salads » Here are two' food questions which many women have asked themselves and their neighbors again and again, sometimes find- ing the right answers and more often not. "Can you suggest something new for me to serve my bridge club? I'm so tired of the same old refreshments, but I haven't a " new idea to my name," "Can I get some help in getting my family to eat the variety of fresh vegetables they need?" Well, here are the answers, Tea Room Salad, so named because it had its first success in an exclu- sive Ontario tea room, is the kind of a recipe you simply love to get hold of because it's so different, both in taste and appearance. You'll see what we mean when you read the list of ingredients and realize just how different and de- licious it is 'when you actually try it out. When you serve this the . bridge club meeting is bound to be a success. It's--a trick that will 'be a prize for the winner, a solace for the loser and, no matter what the talley says, will add points to the hostess' score. Tea Room Salad 1 package lemon jelly powder 1 cup warm: water 1-can (1% cups) tomato soup 1 tablespoon vinegar 2 packages (6 ounces) cheese 1% cups celery, finely diced 3% cup mayonnaise Dissolve jelly powder in warm water, Add tomato soup and vine- gar.

Unmold on crisp lettuce. Garnish with mayonnaise. Serves 8. In case you are faced with two entertaining problems within a short time, we are including an- other delicious salad.

This cream "Year Round jelly salad is guavan- teed to overcome the resistance of the most anti-vegetable young- ster. Bits of gayly colored veget- ables show temptingly through the clear green. There's celery, and shredded cabbage; deep green pepper; and red-pimento. It takes 'only a few minutes longer to pre- pare than a plain salad niade of the same familiar vegetables but what a_ difference between the two! This glorified salad will catch the eye and rebels forget that they are not supposed to like the things they see there.

Bad Disposition Shows In Face A thoughtful look around at the faces of mature women should convince anyone that --grandmotker's--quip about hand- some is as handsome does was a "profound remark indeed. Lines are inevitable, of course. But there are lines and lines. The ones which laughter and sympa- thetic dismay, even tears, put in her face never make any woman unattractive. But lines caused by a sulky disposition, temper tan- trums, envy, greed, hate and self- pity certainly do. Right to Nag If a husband comes home late his wife has an inherent right to "nag" him, said Judge Cox in court at Indianapolis, U.S.A, He - gave the ruling when 'a young husband admitted that he beat his wife because of her nagging. ITE TRY IT TOMORROW Throat Microphone In most air services pilots com- municate with their home stations 'by means of microphones, and to use them the hands come into ~play,-which-means- that they are off the controls for a few sec- onds. This involves a slight risk, and to obviate this a small throat mike has heen invented. It is about as thick as the middle qf an ordinary necktie, and the mic- rophone, which is the size of a coat button, is fastened to it, pressing against the neck. When speaking, vocal sound waves are picked up through the neck tissues and much of the - present interference, such as en- gine roar, is cut out. This leaves the hands absolutely free, In more than one disaster hand mic- rophones have fallen. among the controls, causing the crash.

Feminists Prime Minister Mackenzie King is unveiling a bronze plaque in Ot. tawa this month honoring the five Alberta women whose efforts re- sulted in Canadian women gaining eligibility for appointment to the Senate. : The memorial bearing their names will be placed on the west wall of the Senate foyer by the Can- adian Federation of Business and Professional Women, * The honored Alberta women were Judge Emily ¥. Murphy, po- lice court magistrate and interna. tion~lly known as the author "Ja. ney Canuck," Hon. Irene Parlby, former minister without portfolio in the Alberta Legislature; Mrs. Nel- lie L. McClung, former M.L.A. and well-known author; Mrs. 0. C. Ed- wards, of Macleod and Mrs. Louise C. McKinney, first woman 'ected to any Legislature in Canada. Mrs. McClung, one of the two liv: ing members of the "Alberta five," will attend the ceremonial. Mrs. Parlby, the other member, will be unable to make the journey owing to poor health. : First attempts to gain recogni: tion for women as 'persons' under the section of the British North America Act pertaining to eligibil- ity for public appointmgnts arose over the appointment of Mrs. Mur- phy as police magistrate of Edmon- ton, which was disputed.' However, the Supreme Court of Alberta gave a favorable decision and Mrs. Murphy took office. In 1921 following the grant of the Dominion franchise to women and their admittance as members to the House of Commons, a move ment was launched for the appoint. ment of women to the Senate. Recognized as "Persons" The crusade began with an ap- peal from women's clubs across Canada to the government. The question was referred to the Su. preme Court of Canada which de. cided women were not 'qualified persons' eligible for appointment to the Senate. Following this de- cision the government announced an amendment would be gubmitted cure the ambiguity of the Act. Believing the matter would be inevitably delayed the women ap- pealed to the Privy Council, Delivering judgment in 1929, the Lord Chancellor of Great Britain stated that on May 20, 1867 (the game session in which the B.N.A. Act was passed) an amendment was moved to, the "representation of the people. bill" proposing to leave out the word "man" and sub- stitute "person" which would in- clude women. The conclusion was that "person" included members of both sexes. Her Hose Cost $35 Per Pair Sonja Henie Uses Five Pairs A Day While Skating--Glues Her Curls In Place It was a reporter's pleasure to "trudge over the snow to a bonfire on the edge of a rural skating pond on a Hollywood movie lot and watch Sonja Henie go about the business' of earning better than $100,000 a year. All this, of course, was inside twentieth Century-Fox's greatest sound stage. The pond, covered with blue-white ice, took up most of the stage. Sonja wore nothing but a bob- tailed hallet skirt of white tulle, a pair of handsome silk stockings,-a broad smile and some glue. A Run in A Leap The stockings she wears are su.' per deluxe ones. 'Not only do they - have to be handsome; they've got to.be strong. They cost $35 a pair. She usually uses around five pairs a day. On her last picture her ho- siery bill ran $2,100. The trouble seems to be that . "when she's going lickety-split over the ice in tune to the music and then suddenly makes one of those graceful leaps, the 'strain at the knees is terrific and pretty soon one of her $35 stockings gets a run. Then all work stops while Sonja pulls on a new pair. Skates 40 Miles An Hour The glue she wears finally hus licked one of her most serious problems, When she's scooting across the rink at some 40 miles per hour the wind plays hob with her golden curls. So the make-up department now sprays her locks with the glue and when it sets she can skate as fast as she likes. That means, however, that she has to have her hair washed every day. With his neck broken in three places, John Lucas, . a painter, walked: nearly a mile and cols lapsed as he was entering a hos- pital in Yeovil, England. 5 La
