She finds four men playing cards when she arrives. One of them, Jock A,yleward, her father tells her, is like a son to hnin, but wares the girl he ,is a trifler, Lynda pays a second visit to her father and "tock takes her home, on the way stopping with her at are-un- derworld reunderworld cabaret.

He' Hurst have felt their sudden change! to gladness for his gray eyes were ardent, bold. They came chaser. She Om back her face, He was erect; again. She glanced nervously over her shoulder. They were far from the small table, dancing with three ether couples at the larger end of the room where it opened into a sort of alcove or bay. "Aren't there some very queer sort of people here tonight?" asked Lynda. "Are there? I hadn't noticed it." 'Look now, that big man with a white scar; dancing* with the woman in—in—shoulder straps." "In and out of 'em, eh? Well, yes, you might perhaps call him queer. He's Toni l'adrona. Just out." "Of the hospital? That's why he look's so gaunt perhaps." "Front up the river. He got off with two years." Lynda stopped. Her hand fell) ruin . that supple shoulder. A.R,&F. E.,DUVAL Licensed Dtuglesa 'Practitioners Chirbpractic and Electro 'Therapy. Graduates of..

"No. He's not got the hands for it." Jock was in the doorway and he •sn.tdenly turnad his back and went Lilt. The:n,as it 1t is growing late she decided she had better not wait for Nick any longer. She went honi.e sin in, to herself. A few days later Jocelyn wrote a note to Nick Sandal in which she told him she would be all alone on Thursday night and that she wanted him to conte early and spend the ev- ening with her Thera 'were some "I wont offend again. Good-bye." 1,,n:g." .explain In her own small bedroom, safe, she knelt beside her bed; and there, trembling; all over and in tears, she thanked her God for the first time since she was born for the great, the dangerous, the admirable gift of liv- ing. In spite of her dangerous exper- ience, she went back to her father's rooms a few nights later. Ayleward overtook her climbing up the stairs. "Playing in, hard luck again, aren't you, Miss Sandal? I've got to go on up. Have some important news for your father. But don't worry -1 won't stay long." She knocked at Sandal's door.

"He is ill—not seriously—but too i11 to come. An attack of pain and fever; the exertion of moving per- haps. We're very respectably quart- ered at present."

He looked again at her. "May I stay just for, a little while?

So, when a manufacturer spends $50,000 a year on press ad- vertising, it can be assumed that the total annual sales of his pro- duct amount to from $1,000,000 to' $1,500,000: Now, if you are`stocking a national- ly -advertised product= - - advertised in big -city dailies and in nationally -circu- lated magazines, you have a right to see this product also being locally advertis- ed—in this newspaper. Your total an- nual sales of the maker's product, join - to those of its other local distributors (if there are others), entitle you to de- mand that the product be locally adver- tised in this newspaper; 'If the maker or his representative being talks to you about the advertisin heir done for the product in big -city dailies and in national magazines, tell hien that upwards of 90 per cent, of the families in yrlur sales territory do not subscribe to a big -city daily or to a national mag- azine; and that, therefore he isutting P � 011 your shoulders the burden of creat- ing and maintaining' sales. Clearly, it is not right that you should be required to promote the sale of a product in the territory served by this newspaper, without receiving from the manufacturer the same kind and de- gree of sales assistance which he is giv- ing' retailers resident in cities where he is spenring a lot of money on local .ad- vertising. Quite too often manufacturers don't want to advertise in local weekly news- papers, saying that it costs too much. They forget, however, that their sales in towns served by weekly newspapers. provide • an advertising fund which shoucl be spent locally. IThy should the contributions from local sales to the maker's advertising fund be spent out- side thelocal• sales territory? You have your business -to build up, 9 and to the extent that you'help manu- facturers to obtain and retain sales in this territory, to that extent you should receive local .advertising assistance.
