Patsy scores a hit bv ao eueinff Uark of trading upon hit crippled body. Uark lives with Farrell Armitage, millionaire who hat teoured the promise of Bar bara Qventin, Idark't liancie. to postpone their wedding a year bv agreeing to use all hie reeoureee to launch Uark ae an artist in that time. Leila Cane, who is fas cinated by Uark. is paying Patsy to engineer an affair with him. Chapter 25 CRUCIFYING CON8TANTIA PATSY'S asssrtlos that ha traded on his crippled body entirely In furiated Mark. It was the first time In his lite that his plea (or special concessions had been brushed aside. He became smilingly venomous. He said "Another thing that will prevent you from ever amounting to any thing Is the (act that yeu are un educated. Such broad effects as you get, yon get photographically yon don't develop them by means ot a cultured or even an Intelligent ob servation. In short, you can only mimic, you can't create " "You'd better go and tell that to the 'Watcher,' they printed a whole column about my art being the only creative " It was the harassed dresBer who, ten minutes later, managed to Inter Tens. And even then no definite truce was called until the door was flung wide and a bunch ot young men and women slithered Into the dressing-room. With much flaunting of bad language and many endear ments, they jostled each other upon the threshold and demanded the company ot Patsy Raoul for the rest ot the night. Mark's excitement Increased. He was not Impressed by tbe enamelled costliness of the women, nor by tbe over-confident bearing ot tbe men, but he saw at last his avenues of approach to a world that must be made to take heed ot him. "An, madams la ducbesse, I (eel ao sorrow," Miss Raoul was apolo gising. "But no, I asleep must go; much late hours ee-nervate, not?" She pointed derisively to Mark. "But there, there Is a oree-atlve artist whom can rest all the day. As I cannotl" The scented and bejewelled flock turned Inquiringly. Mark lifted his yes to those ot a dark-skinned, atralght-backed -woman whose hair was hidden under a sort ot bathing cap ot gold brocade. "My passports," he murmured, of fering her the sketches. She made a great deal ot noise over them and her companions, when she was persuaded to let them share her raptures, made a great deal more. A young woman whom Mark recognised as the Duchess ot Morthorlng flopped to the seat be side him. She was more heavily made up than Patsy Raoul and near ly as thin. "But you mitat be most deoompos lsgly clever 1" she announced. ''These things ara simply decompos Ingly good. You must draw me next everybody always draws me and then they draw Constantla " she looked with malice at a short wo man In a backless dress ot yellow. "She'll pay you a lot but I shall be far better advertisement tor you. You must see that Isn't Patsy Raoul quite too urgent, really T" "She doesn't like me," said Mark. 'Do you. Miss Raoul? I think per baps she's Jealous ot me." "Take him away. Far," command ad Miss Raoul with every sign ot disgust. Mark allowed himself to be taken. There were more of the orew, ap parently, outside In tbe passage. "Hullo, Mark!" Mark looked up from prodigious labor with bis crutch for In spite ot their sympathy and admiration for him, none ot his friends seemed to think It necessary to wait for him or help him and discovered Leila. "Hullo, Leila I As one country cousin to another, where are these grand ladles and gentlemen taking us tot And who Is going to pay for our drinks t" "It's my party," vociferated the ahort woman In yellow whom the others called Constantla and treated with a sort ot contemptuous toler ance. "1 wish Miss Raoul could have come but I've got Fan Rln and her dancing partner and that eweot boy out of 'Here's Hoping!' and Mr. Lodoly Is a find. Bring your friend along, Mr. Lodely, she looks a sweet girl." The lovely young duchess hooked an arm round Mark. His crutch (lipped perilously. He looked Into . her fair face that had not In It one! IRK LEGISLATORS BARXUBflURO, Pa Jul II. (AP) Doors to th newly-formed legis lative league have been officially lammed In the fnce ot the "beau tlful lady lobbyist. "I'm sick of feminine lobbyists," said State Representative Thomas Wilson of McKean county, when the fro up organised last night as a non polMcal. non-partisan forum. "I want them to stay away from my chair and let me make up my own feeble mind. "I have notloed. he added, "that It takes far longer for a good looking woman to complete an Interview than for a woman with half Che number of teeth sh ought to have." Wilson found ready support and women lobbyists beautiful or not were banned. . 4 Desirable bouses always tn first etass condition lor rent, lease ot sals Oail 10. glint of ctuuacter or courage, and swore at hex Utterly for ber clumsl ness. She twuleu her delight. "Oh, I sisipir tingle for you! How urgent K fesls to be sworn at In the first five mi'jotes generally that doesn't com- &! so much later on I Mr, Lodely, whea my divorce Is through, will yon marry me? I shan't have a cent, ot course, because Nortberlng Is going bankrupt di rectly aftorwards, but you'll be mak ing thousands and rlly I can dress on very little." A blond youth with red-rlmmed eyes Interposed a witticism which temporarily Incapacitated the en tire company with the exception of the hostess; she was trying to rope In two slim, sequin-covered acrobats who were just emerging from their dressing-room. "Now do come to my party. It's at the Da Capo, Juat ask for Mrs. Lewis J. Jacobson's table there'll be a whole bunch of tbe loveliest folks " The acrobats, who were Russians, made exquisite gestures ot non-undorstandlng, threw their white dust-cloaks round them and ran off In the direction of the wings. "Coming, Leila?" smiled Mark. "Coming, sweet girl?" "I may come on later but I must see Patsy Raoul. 1 want Barbara to fix her house for her but " Mark did not trouble to listen. A man known as Freddy was pulling Impatiently at him and he set him self to traverse the space before him. The blond Freddy was aa In adequate a support as one might have expected from his appearance and Mark was relieved when he hastened on In front and opened and shut doors Instead. Mark't brow was wet by the time he bad dragged blm self out ot the theater and Into the car which awaited them. Nevertheless, ho was still smil ing as they drove off at the tall ot the festal procession. He was not going to lose his temper except when be could do It to dramatic advantage. While Freddy and the duchos. continued to besmear the name and fame of Mrs. Lewis J. Jacobson with mud the very car that held them was, he gathered, hers he tried to fix his mind upon the next few hours. Irrltatlngly, Leila's scarlet and gold floated be fore his vision. "I loathe tbe Da Capo, absolutely loathe it," announced the duchess, getting briskly out as the car drew up before a portico outlined in small blue lights. "You'll see to Mr. Lode ly, Freddy darling? 'Cos I have to try and find Biggies." Freddy held the door of the car and looked vaguely after ber. "If you hate staying with me as much ae I hate having you stay," said Mark, "we've got a lot in com mon. Suppose we meet Inside?" Freddy, releaood, bolted after the duchoss and Mark took his time. By Inside porter, cloakroom attendant and page, he was eventually 'seen' Into the club. The atmosphere of Mrs. Jacobson's party had grown more quarrelsome but more toler able. The gold-capped woman was whis pering to a beautiful young boy; she bad dropped the sketches ot Patsy Raoul under her chair. With care Mark retrieved them and sitting down outside the circle began to draw upon their backs. He drew his hostess, Constantla J. Jacobson; drew her wrangling, drew her eat ing, and finally, from memory, drew ber blandishing the Russian acro bats. He had so tar gone unob served and when he had touched In her thickness ot lips and nose he signalled to a waiter and had a chair placed Just behind his victim. When he was settled upon It, be touched her obese shoulder. "I do wleh you'd buy these studies ot Miss Raoul," he said as she turned. "They're forty pounds each." She laughed the halt-bitter, halt simpering laugh ot the grossly rich. "You certainly have a nerve! And anyway, they were only twenty hack In the thentsr." "Ahl" smiled Mark. "But they've doubled their value since then." He lifted one a little so that she could see what was upon Its back. Ha saw a purplish red mount under her powder, mount to the roots of ber hair; her black eyes squinted tor a second. "Is that how I look to you?" she muttered. "Not really, no," Mark admitted. "But you se,e, I happen to want money and you happen to have It And who are either t us to strug gle against our fate?" (Copyright, Kit, Julia CUtt-Addamt) Tomorrow, Mark meets a porsoa of praat Importance. HOOVER FOR HALT F( WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.AP) In a second special message to congress In as many days.

SCOTLAND YARD IN MURDER CASE LONDON, Jan. 13. ghostly fog-shrouded dawn found Scotland Yard's host of police relentlessly pur suing Samuel Furnace today In the most minute search London and the surrounding territory ever have un dergone In criminal annals. He la sought as the slayer of his friend, Walter Spatchett, whose body was burned In such a manner that murder at first was unsuspected and the victim was identified as Furnace himself. Throughout the huge London eone which contains a larger population than any other equal area in the world, officers In plain clothes con ducted an almost microscopic exam ination. They combed highways and byways. They visited hotels, lodging houses. Inns, roadhouses, coffee stalls, hos pitals, and In some Instances private dwellings. Police, disguised In the nondescript apparel of down-and-outs re mingled with denizens of the underworld, lis tening for a word which might guide them to their quarry.
