A Girl Comes to HollxWood Continued from page 100 There was no longer any doubt that Allen would inherit Lady Gates' money, since without waiting for a trial his innocence of her death had been proved. Her jewels, part of the legacy, were in the strong box placed in the hotel safe by "Mrs. Richard Rendel," and surrendered after her suicide to the police. With them were the historic heirlooms which had belonged to Madeleine's dead mother, and had through that mother become Madeleine's property. If "Mary Smith" had made a sensation in Hollywood, Madeleine Standish had raised a cyclone. Never had Montparnasse been so popular. It was jammed day and night not only by stars, but by tourists who had seen a hundred photographs of Mary Smith and Malcolm Allen and Marco Lopez. The strangers wanted to know which had been the table where Malcolm Allen had always sat, and which had been that favored by poor Lady Gates ? Was it true that Mary Smith ■ — no, Madeleine Standish, or rather Mrs. Malcolm Allen as she must be called since the wonderful wedding, — had worn the same harem dress that other pretty girl was walking around in now? And would Marco Lopez be allowed to go back to Buenos Aires? Well, well! But after all, as he so constantly announced in newspaper interviews, he wasn't a criminal ! He was even a somewhat sympathetic figure, especially in the eyes of silly girls, and would probably end by marrying some rich South American widow, to console him for the English lady he had lost. A good thing for herself that the Rosenkrantz woman had committed suicide at the right moment ! And a kind of poetic justice, you might say, that she'd taken the same stuff she'd used for the killing of Lady Gates. Even Oscar Sonnenberg became a cynosure for the eyes of visitors to Hollywood, not because of any personal pulchritude, but because he had had the luck to produce "Red Velvet," Malcolm Allen's film, at this time. Every one called it luck, not knowing his private grievance against the girl who had let him down by marrying the writer. Not only was the film a whirlwind success everywhere, because of its topical interest, but Mary Smith was, on her own merits, the surprise of the Hollywood season. "Big Ossie" stood to pile up a fortune out of the quickly made and hastily released picture, so no one save himself dreamed that he was to be pitied. He had the sense to see that if he tried to take any revenge upon Madeleine, not only would he disgust his public, but he would betray his own secret. Instead he decided to make a grand gesture. He gave Madeleine a diamond pendant as a wedding present, and invited Malcolm to write another story at a huge price, with "Mary Smith" as the star. "Make up your minds about the business while you're on your honeymoon," he graciously said. But their minds are still to be made up, for they haven't finished their honeymoon yet. THE END. B# Their Furs Te Shall Knoxtf Them Continued from page 21 carved out their destinies for themselves, often in the face of terrific odds. But will woman ever emancipate herself from the lure of bedecking and worshiping the too-brief glory of her beautiful flesh? And until she does, will she not be limited, in fact if not in theory, to the short period of power which vanishes with the fading of her physical charm? It would admittedly be disconcerting if women in general, and especially screen favorites, whose influence is so far-reaching, suddenly "got sense." It might result in a temporary paralysis of industry, and would certainly cripple the luxury trades. The agitation against Bird of Paradise slaughter, and the pe culiarly unpleasant manner in which aigrets are secured, threw a number of hunters out of jobs ; yet few tears were shed for them by those aware of the callous brutality of their methods. Fashion blandly acquiesced to the reform. What if Mary and Norma, Connie and Colleen and the others, should be overwhelmed with sudden realization of what their part in the vogue for fur really means ? What if the wearing of it, except when absolutely necessary for warmth, become taboo, as a barbarous attribute to decadent vanity? None of them would willingly torture a fly ; yet one of them owns no less than forty fur garments !
