i .. mid explorer, tell his friend
Kuin Winslow about his experience
of the day before. Frank, obey
Ino a hunrh that came when he
saw a vulturlne ace peering
through the window of Uyberg's
atjice, followed the ear of Janice
Kent, who had been conferring with
the famous movie executive. Frank
etralrrhtene out the tanale that fol
lowed a collision between Hiss
Kent's ear and a nondescript tan
motor; he believes the collision was
planned, and suspects it has a con
nection with urtcaa, a Mexican
who plans to supervise a jungle pic
lure for Mvberg. But Janice will
not credit Frank's hunch. Frank
finds himself drawn toward Janice.
Chapter Six
SUDDEN MYSTERY
"TpHEN," continued Grabame,
"Mitt Kent told me that aucb a
thought was ridiculous since Ortega
swned a nice automobile." He smiled
ruefully. "Her opinion was Illogical,
feminine and "
Wlnslow laughed. "Not at all,
Frank. The girl was right Look here.
, . , Ortega hasn't shopped his Idea
about Hollywood. It's an original,
and Myberg's handling him with kid
(lores until we're launched on pro
duction. Kent knows that. Sbe wants
to be In that picture. So do I.
"Although Ortega looks like a bull,
be is really a rather personable fel
low, and seems to have lots of
money. We can't be snooty with him
or he'll take bis Idea elsewhere. Sure
we could go ahead without blm, but
he's got a political pull down where
be springs from, and above all we
want to go ahead with this thing
with as little expense and competl
tlon' as possible. These days, mis
takes are cortly."
"I see what you mean," said Gra
bame slowly. "But wby would Or
tega, assuming It was he In the tan
car last night, engineer an accident?
Is be annoying Miss Kent? Did she
turn him down and he Is taking this
method to
"Listen, Spin, some of those South
American birds are dynamite. Par
ticularly wltb women. You know bow
they go for blondes. That driver I
bit was one of our local boys, k type
that would do anything for money,
and damn little of It. I wouldn't
know what Ortega looks Jlke If I
found blm In my soup, but"
Wlnslow's snort of derision Inter
rupted him. "What an Imagination,
' Crank! What an Imagination!
you've led such a melodramatic life
these last few years that your mind
works that way.(Forgot It It wasn't
Ortega, and if It was, It was Just an
unexpected accident. Sure, be sends
her Sowers. He's stuck on her.
Bound to be. She's the first movie
actreBS he's met and she's damnably
pretty. I suspect you're a little that
way yourself, but take some advice
from uncle. Lay off."
Grabame was slightly startled.
"Why " he began.
HIS companion grinned with mock
maliciousness but withal there
was an expression of concern In his
eyes.
"Perhaps I'm a great guy to talk
too much, Frank . . . anyhow that's
my reputation, but occasionally I
speak with a grain of common sense.
That girl Is not for you, or for any
otber man for that matter, for at
least some time to come. Too ambi
tious. Not that she's to be blamed for
that She's fought her way to the top
around here and she's cagey enough
to know that a husband might dim
that universal sweetheart appeal
stuff that gets her over so big. So
she's not having any, thank ou.
"She has lots of money and made
It herself, legitimately. It's common
knowledge around the studios that
sba was poor once and she's keeping
what she's got"
"Spin " Grahame'i face grew
dully red.
The otber, In the act of mixing
himself another waved him to si
lence. "It Isn't that you would be
elssslfled In her mind as a fortune
hunter, Frank, although there's lots
that would. Ye of course, I'm talk
ing too much, but we were good
friends once and I'm tipping you off
ven If It's at the price of our friend
ship." The stunt pilot's mouth drew
Into stubborn lines.
"Listen. It's said there was an In
valid father once. He's gone now, but
things were protty tough then for
ber. She's like the little princess In
the story whose body was bruised by
the pea through six thicknesses of
mattress. Janice Kant can sense a
pan of dlshwalor and the lite It rep
resents six rooms off. It's not that
she's cold and selfish, lis"
GRAHAMES throat wst a little
dry as he said, "Selfish! 8he't
line. Clean, and young, and charm
ing. She Inspires loyalty. I watched
'r Mr
I V
1 Yt
that little mi. ..a with ber
last night. He's bar ilave and works
like the devil for her. His ballyhoo
smells like the circus, but "
"She loves It And as for loyalty,
they say she pays him ten thousand
a year, although be probably gets
half of hat"
"He gets bis ten thousand all
right," stated Grahams stiffly. "She
told me so herself."
"Bunk," said Wlnslow, swallow
ing from his glass,
Grahame eyed blm coldly.

Elliott Cherishes
Preserved Apple
Of Boyhood Days
An Interesting tidbit from sn old
whatnot Is the clovesflUed apple, now
cherished by Dr. B. R. Elliott of thla
city, who had It on display at his of
fice yesterday. It la 40 years old and
was once the -largest apple on the
tree at Dallas, where the doctor spent
his boyhood.
In fact he had It hidden In his own
bin. when bis older sisters Insisted
that It be brought-out for decorstlon.
The whole cloves were inserted at
frequent Intervals over Its skin snd
then It was placed on the whatnot
In the parlor. The daylight struck It
only on special occasions, Dr. Elliott
recalled yesterday, when the girls'
beaux were calling and the parlor
blinds were drawn. During the years
the flesh of the spple shrank day af
ter day, until it now resembles a big
cloves ball, still shaped like an Ore
gon apple.
Because It wss his spple orlglnslly.
it was recently returned to Dr. El
liott, who treasures it now ss a curio
of those davs, when even Kb whatnot
decorations came from the farm.

I watched that monkey, Greene, with
her.
"You wouldn't tblnk she'd lie to
me, do you?"
Wouldn't I?" The atunt man
laughed and Grahame wondered why
he had never before noticed bow dis
agreeably Wlnslow could laugh.
"Frank . . . you sound as It you're
getting It rather bad. Dpn't do it.
That gal, candidly, is reputed to be
the coldest piece of goods that ever
dimpled at the Klelgs out here. She'd
cold-deck her own grandmother.
Selfish T Perhaps not In a general
sense. But on the lot remember I
say 'on the lot' she'd swipe a starv
Ing extra's luncb It she didn't get
hers on time. She "
At the look on Grahame's face he
paused and took a swallow of his
drink. "Now don't got rodheadod
about It, buziard. I told you, this Is
just a friendly tip." The remaining
contents of his glass gurgled down
his throat Ice tinkled through tha
quiet room as he set down the glass.
He glanced oddly at Grabame.
Sorry, old man. Maybe I don't
like blondes, I guess. That's all. Got
to be going. See you later."
As the paneled door shut behind
him, Grahame caught sight of the re
flection of his own grim face In tha
varnished surface. Anger boiled
suddenly within blm. Wlnslow didn't
like blondes, he guessed! The assl
What a lousy way to talk about a
girl.
Wlnslow's cynicism had crystal
lised some of bis own emotional re
sponses toward Janice Kent. Why,
she was the sweetest, denrest, most
beautiful Fifty million fans
couldn't be wrong, could thoyT Wlns
low ... a gossipy hundred-a-week
stunt man libeling the most brilliant
slar in a flrmanent of stars. He told
himself to forgot about It.
