The brains of the concern ran a hand through the mop of %rown curl* that covered the spot where his cap­ ital stock found housing accommoda tloh. "I’ve made use of everything from a black*pam>t to a blue mari­ gold," he said, "to push Duchette’s toilet preparations so far—and I’ve come to the end of my rope. Why, man, I don’t even know henna hair when I see It.” **I‘ would suggest," replied the senior member, highly amused over something not apparent to Andy, “that you and Miss Gray put your heads together over It,” And so say­ ing he left, the office, closing *the door behind him. The girl at the. typewriter desk by the window flushed and raised .hands to thick auburn braids, which encir­ cled her small head.

"If I get it I’ll share it with you, vacation and nil! What do you say— dear?” Now Andy's arm found its way around the girl’s shoulders. With a quick shrug Miss Gray shook it off, She stood up. ’Til say, Mr. Anderson, that I have a morning’s work to do which you are interrupting.” "And I'll say, Miss Gray, that yonr duty to the firm owes me this much inspiration.” “Ouch I” cried Zona, rubbing her head—while Andy depart­ ed laughing, holding gingerly between thnmb and forefinger a hair of the color fashionably known as "henna,” Entering his own private sanctuqi, Andrew Anderson laid his trophy care­ fully on his desk, sat down before it and gazed at it moodily, So far he had put over ten of Buehette’s toilet preparations successfully but his ideas for the eleventh bore a strong resem­ blance to a, hen’s tooth. Instead, he pictured the' owner of one particular head of henna hair alone with himself In a camp he knew to ue for rent on a certain mountain lake—pictured her out in a canoe, tramping through the woods, and so On without end. Dntll the senior partner returned, which was fully an hour, his secre­ tary's "morning's work” seemed to consist of gazing from dreamy gray eyes down upon a traffic laden street and a desultory scrutinizing of a morn­ ing dally—the latter Until an Item on the society page caught her attention. This won a second reading, which re­ sulted In Concentrated thought Prom the time when he did appear until one o’clock, Mr. Andrews kept her busy. Then Andy came In, ready to go out to lunch with the head of the firm, as was his dally custom.

The doorman a t the casino con­ nected with the inn listened, to the . accompaniment of the throbbing mu­ sic within, to the murmured explana­ tion of a fair lady who had been pre­ vented by circumstances from arriv­ ing with her party. And ,OB‘Monday morning Andrew Anderson found on bis desk a folded sheet of note paper and a copy of a morning daily. Andy opened the folded paper and read; "The woman who wins the prize for the most beautiful costume at the charity masque has my per­ mission to call a t my studio, 425 Mae- dougal street, a t her earliest oppor­ tunity and arrange for sittings for her portrait toi be painted in said costume by me. PAUL RENEE.” Frowning in perplexity at the con­ tents of the communication. Andy whistled -in' surprise when his eyes fell on the signature of the best known artist of the day. He picked up the daily and perused the marked arti­ cle, ■ 1 "Fair Unknown Wrests Prize From Society Leaders,” Andy's eyes rapid­ ly followed the print down the col­ umn. "Beautiful girl appears from no one knows where. Costumed as a gray moth, with body, feet and an­ tennae, of that popular color known ns henna, she vanished directly after receiving award. Artist Paul Renee raves over the beauty of her hair, which he declares is true ,henna shade and all her own. He praises her skill In using, it as part of the color, scheme of her costume. Her identity will be revealed when she avails herself of the privilege of hsv- lngt her portrait' done by the best known artist of the day.” Meantime the door to Andy’s office had opened softly and a voice stoics over his shoulder: "If i allow you to use that picture In putting over the Duchette .preparation .do I earn the thousand?” Andy sprang up and faced Zona's -laughing eyes. But he was serious— .rather dejectedly so—when he an­ swered: "It’s a cinch, of* course; your picture painted by Paul Renee would make a success of singed cats as a breakfast food. The money ts yours—all of It, I gracefully retire as the brains of ^he'concern.” 'Wp. Andy; you- must .stick to the -agreement i want you to,” , Zona’s voice was queer and trembly and sha didn't look at Andy.-"You're to, spend yonr half at that place you have told me so much about—that lake In the northern hills;” “And how will yon spend yoursf* asked the man. "On clothes: All sorts of clothes— clothes for every possible occasion', Every girl longs for a complete out­ fit once In her life.” "Particularly on one occasion— don’t they. Zona?” Andy, came nearer, bnt this time the girl did not draw nway. "Will you buy camping clothes, dear? And swimming clothes, and— and wedding clothes?” “Look out, Andy, I’m shedding, “you know!” cried Zona. "Well, as long ns yon wear 'net when you mal a my soup—” The rest of Andy’s remark was addressed to Zona’s lips, not to her, ears. Memorial to Alps’ Conqueror. The ceremony of unveiling the Chavez memorial at. Brigne recently took on quite an international aspect owing to the presence of the dele­ gates, headed by Prince Roland Bonaparte, who, had been, taking part in the F. A. I. meeting at Geneva. Those who took part in the unveiling ceremony were each presented with a bronze medallion, bearing on one side a portrait of George Chavez, and on the other a design symbolizing the flight across the Alps, together with the inscription : Brlgue-Stmplon-Dcrao- dossola, September 23, 19X0. Among those present were a brother of ChAvez, the Peruvian ministers In Paris and Brussels, and a representa­ tive of the French government, while flying overhead was an escadrllle from the Dnbendorf aerodrome.
