Over 5 million people have used Alleock's, the original porous plaster. Don't take any plaster but Alleock's. It brings quickest relief. Lasts longer. Easy to apply and remove. 25$ at druggists. We go down to lunch together to have a talk about the stars he has worked with, and his method of handling them. All very harmless enough, but does Andre bring up the name of Lily Pons? Not once. He runs the gamut of emotion from A to Z about every other star he has worked with — until every name has been covered except that of Lily Pons! When her name is finally brought up. he actually blushes! "Yes," he says in his delightful accent, "Miss Pons is so easy to work with, a beautiful artist." And then, most amazing of all, he reaches in his breast pocket and takes out a small wallet. From it he extracts a tiny strip of film. He holds it up to the light. It is Lily. Three separate pictures of her! He explains the details of the strip of film. Which part of it is the sound track. How it was made. What is most interesting to us is the look on Andre's face as he holds the celluloid up to the light and looks at the image of Lily Pons. When he has finished explaining the technicalities, he looks at the picture for an instant longer, and then places it meticulously back in his wallet. "That is how she looks when she sings," he says quietly. Where did he get the film? Was it a gift from Lily? Does it mean something to both of them? It is another clue, a link in the chain of evidence. We do not have to wonder about the look on Andre's face as he gazes at the little strip of film. The look alone almost tells the story. iV T this writing, Lily Pons has com•» pleted her second picture in Hollywood. Again it was Andre who flew to the West Coast every week to do the musical score on the picture. The day I talked to him, he was getting ready for another week-end trip to the coast. Clue? I should say so. Just why is Andre flying to the coast again? Simple deduction tells us that it isn't to work on the picture. The picture has been completed. Listen to the conversation that took place between Andre and a gentleman in an elevator in the Columbia Broadcasting building. Said the gentleman: "How was the trip last week, Andre?" "All right," Andre answered, "although I got quite a scare. Just out of Denver something went wrong with one of the wings, and I thought we were going to have to make a forced landing in the mountains." "1 wouldn't make that trip for anything in the world," said the gentleman. "Oh, it isn't so bad." Andre answered, "I get a little frightened now and then, but it is nothing." "How do you like it out there?" the gentleman asked. "Fine," Andre answered. "last week we went swimming, and we had a lot of fun." (Aside to detectives: note the we.) "Going out again this week, Andre?" the gentleman asked as the elevator reached the ground floor. "Yes," Andre Kostelanetz answered, and he smiled, "of course." The conversation really tells a great deal. It gives you real perspective on this romance that both Lily and Andre have kept in the background for almost a year. Further, it throws a light on the type of man Andre Kostelanetz really is. Flying, all told, six thousand miles a week. Flying through all kinds of weather and conditions, to be with Lily Pons. A little afraid of the air — and yet traveling all that distance. Even if Andre won't talk, we can't hold it against him. There isn't anything snobbish, or high-handed, in his silence.

You know from watching others that charm and poise can be destroyed instantly by the misuse of hands. And by the same token, the correct use of your hands can become a tremendous social and business asset. Great actresses accomplish much of their poise by proper hand action. The makers of Frostilla— the famous skin lotion that keeps hands, face and body smooth and lovely— asked Margery Wilson, the international authority on charm and poise, to tell • how to hold a cigarette • how to pick up cards • how to shake hands • and how to make hands behave to the best advantage on all occasions Margery Wilson gives the authoritative answers to these and other questions in an illustrated booklet on How to Use Your Hands Correctly. Although this booklet is priced at 50c, we have arranged to present it without charge to Frostilla users in the United States and Canada until May 30th, 1937. Just mail the front of a 35c, 50c or $1.00 Frostilla Fragrant Lotion box (or two fronts from 10csizes)and your copy will be sentFREE. "FROSTILLA" 457 Gray Street, Elmira, N. Y.
