don't have " check-weighmen like
union miners and the miners
know they get cheated in the

“The deductions from the pay
are $2 a month for company doc
tor, 51 for hospital fund, 50 cents
for tool sharpening, $lB a year for
rent, 60 cents for burial fund, so
much for church and coal and
other things like that. |
“You get paid in scrip which is
no good except at company stores,
which cheat. the- miners and
sométimes charge them twice ae
much for flour and food as they
charge outside. If you want a
two-cent stamp to mail a letter
you have to pay five cents in
serip for it. ’]
“The.miners eat corn bread and
beans and that's about all any
body gets. The children never
know what it is to get milk or
nourishing food to eat. Lots of
miners don't know what food is
good for their children, anyway,
but that they what milk is.
Lack Clothes For School
“Half the children don’'t go to
school because they don't have
shoes and clothes. They can't
buy books, but they usually bor
row them from the children from
the town. They used to try to
get school lunches, but the coal
operators stopped that.
“A miner’s child hasn’t got no
chance whatever and by the time
he is 14 or 15 he is in the mines.
I married my husband when I was
16.
“The mining camps have frém

CLORIFYING
YOURSELF—
By ALICIA HART
Some evening when you want to
be mors enchanting than usual, try
the new silver and gold nail pol
ish.
Especially if you have platinum
blonde hair, the platinum polish
on your nails seems highly ap
propriate. Also if you are using
the metallic eye shadow, metallic
iflnger nails finish you up with a
'shine,
5 The way you use this best is to
glve just the tips of .your nails
this added gleam. First ‘they are
manicured as you usually have
them, perhaps leaving them just
a little longer than you had them
this winter. Then you use the plat
inum polish to touch up the tips
of the nails, the part that is white
at the top of the finger.
- You can have the polish renew.
ed without having another mani
cure, or you can take it off with
out toomuch damage to your hands,
It is just a little something extra.
But it should be reserved for eve.
ning. There is something disfig
uring in wearing such an obvious
“extra” during the day-time. Just
a little bit like wearing an evening
dress to the office.
If you are feeling the depression
and don’'t feel equal to having
your usual weekly manicure, save
your pennies and get at least one
2 month. In the interim, mani.
cure your own hands. It may b 2
awkward at first, but with prac
tice you can even make that left
hands of yours do yeoman service.
Red nail polish is still worn by
some women, but a more restrain
ed tint is considered better tastc
‘this spring.
There are a few little tricks
that you may know, but just in
case you don't:
1. Every time you wash your
hands, mpush back the cuticle on
every single finger. This malk2s
perfect half-moons in time on most
hands.
2. For as little as ten cents
you now can buy a finger nail
pencil which, keeps the tips white
underneath. Dip the point in water
and run it around under each In
turn.

Washington met Martha Custis, wealthy and charming
widow. at the home of a friend, in 1758, It was a case of
Jove at first sight,
By NEA Service.
George Washington was essentially a “man’s man’—
tall, straight and athletic—put he also was a great fa
vorite with the- ladies,
I'rom his boyhood, he was quick to fall victim to the
fascinations of the fair. Some historians have greatly
exaggerated this amiable weakness, The truth seems
to be that he often lost his heart-—but experienced little
diffieulty in finding it.
That is—until he met the charming ana wealthy
young widow, Martha Dandridge Curtis, at the home
of a mutual friend, It was a case of love at first sight.
George met Martha in May of the year 1758, He

CHAPTER XXXII.
The tall young man stood shyly
turning his huge Panama hat in
his big sunburned hands, and
looking down at Mary with ill
concealed interest.
He spoke in a soft, southern
voice that was somehow reassur
ing.
“Mist’” Jupiter sent me to fetch
you,” he said. “He's waliting out
at the Hilltop Inn and he cert’ny
is mighty anxious to see you.”
His half-embarrassing grin was
hoyish and ingratiating, and Mary
found herself smiling back and
ready tn go with him, before she
thought to ask, “Which Mr. Jupi
ter?”
“I don’t know that, ma’am,” the
young man responded regretfully.
“He never said. Just Mist’ Jupi
ter, ma'am, was all he told me.”
“Young or old?”’ Mary asked.
! “Describe him.”
1 “Well, he’s gettin® on, but he’s
mighty peart for an old man, yes
sub.” g
Mary laughed. “I guess it's all
right,”” she 'said. “You see, he has
la son, Was there anybody with
him? . Did he give you any idea
what he wanted to see me about?”
On second thought, it did seem
rather odd that Mr. Jupiter should
set out from the hotel without
{ having made any effort to see her,
and then suddenly decide that an
interview was necessary. Some
thinz must have happened—
“ He's all by hisself,” the stran
ger said. “Seems like he left Lis
party and went: off like that so’s
Ie could have a private conversa
tion with you, ma'am. And if you
don't mind hurrying—he was in a
powerful hurry, ma'am —if you
don’t mind.”
“Just one second,” Mary bade
him wait, and hurried back to the
dining room to tell Bowen.
“Hey, hey, I'm going with you!”
Bowen announced.
They argued over it, Mary hold
ing that they must not be seen
together—on the general theory
that to The Fly a newspaperman’s
presence in the group would be
like a signpost foinung to trou
ble, and in particular because of
Bowen’s stories on the Jupiter
murder and his presence at Shay's
the night 'an attempt was made
to arrest The Fly. :
“You can't go off with a man
you never saw before,” Bowen told
her. “How do you know it's not
a trap?” .
Mary considered. >
“Any way, what good would you
be against two of them? My one
man army!” She tapped him on
the shoulder with mock dignity.
“No, you stay here. I'll call you
and let you know everything’s all
right.”
“All right. Call me here.” He
gave her a telephone number.
“That’s my club.” He winked.
“Ask ‘em to call me to the phone.
It's a drugstore. I'd rather fili up
on sodas than weak tea while I’'m.
waiting. And listen, woman, I'm
going to get gray around the
temples waiting to, hear from you.
So don’t forget!”
“1 won't, And remember, if you
don’t- hear from. me—the Hilltop
Inn. Bring the U. 8. Marines and
hurry to the rescue.”
Unconsciously she had begun to
adopt-Bowen's kidding attitude.
Bolstered up her courage, in fact,
to be -facetious in the face of al
most cerfain danger. For she had
made up her mind that if the man
who had. sent for her did in fact
turn out to be De Loma she
would not run, but bluff it through .
somehow. It would really be a re-l
lief if things came to a climax atl
once. '
’ She got into the front seat of a
dusty, nondescript little car bhe
!side the tall young man, and
thought of nothing but keeping
her seat and holding to her floppy
sun-hat while they tore at break
neck gpeed out the coast road-and
along the shore, ..
The Hilltcp Inn was not impos
ing . . . in.faet,. it was nothing

He exiragied her promise to parmit him to call, and
within two mornihs he proposed.
[~stand. surrounded on ali sides by
ia broad screened verandah on
which were bare wooden tables
and chairs. At one of these, be
fore she climbed out of the car,
Mary caught sight of the stout,
white-clad but slightly wilted flg-;
ure of old Mr. Jupiter, impatient
ly mopping his brow. What joy
ful relief that it was he!
] The young man tooled his car
into the side-yard and helped her
alight. Even as he greeted her,
Mr. Jupiter rapped on the screen |
and called out, “Don't go ’way‘
there, son! I got another errdnd |
for you in a little while!” i
The young man nodded, got out
and went over to the soda stand,
and climbed indolently upon a
stool, prepared to wait. He was
well out of hearing.
“It's all-fired hot to bring you
all the way out here, Mary,” the
old man apologized, “but I got
some things on my mind that Ive
just naturally got to ‘talk over
with you. Don't seem as if we
get much chance lately.”
This was putting it mildly, Mary
thought. “Where are the others?”
“I told 'em to let me out and
go on.” He mopped his damp
brow. “I've about enough of this
Florida climate for one day. But
that wasn't it. 1 wanted to get
back to town and have a word
with you. Wae stopped this here
feller. going in the opposite direc
tion, and he said he'd take me
back 'to the hotel, so they went
on—Bruce and Bates, and—her.
“However, I changed my mind
soon’ag I got out of their hearing,
and made him stop here, instead.
Be just like Bruce to turn around
and go back to the hotel to make
certain nobody was taking the
gold filling out of my teeth while
he wasn’t looking. I didn’t want
to be interrupted.
“Now, here’s the first thing:
vou know anything about that De
Loma chap that we met last
night?”?
“Plenty,” Mary said - grimly.
“Why?” |
“You don't have to tell me ha's |
a bad one,” the old man growled. |
“I ain’t lived to be nearly 70
without knowing a rotten egg
when I smell one. You know what
I think It wouldn’t surprise me
none if De Loma wasn't the guy
we're looking for!” |
A cold chill crept down the!
girl’'s spine at *this uncanny per-|
ception. It was almost supernat- |
ural! Her eyes smarted with quick |
wars for a second. They thought
he was a back number, did they?
Well, either it was a miraculous
sort of prescience that had warn- |
ed the old man of the presence of
his enemy or a simple canuniness !
that was moré aweosme still.
lAnd with this suspicion in his |
mind, he haa still acted the senile
innocent, and fooled everybody!!
She wanted to hug him for very |
admiration. ‘
“He is The Fly,” she said.|
| “We're as sure of it as we can;
possibly be. I've been wanting to)
tell you—and" afraid to. It's aw
ful, when. you ' think about it—|
that there he sits—he has the au
dacity to eat—and drink—and-—l
and breathe—oh!” ‘
She must not think of it—that |
was perilous; And to go on in|
that strain might undermine the
old man’s self-control, too. I
