And seem- ed to be unwearied. The official gave a hidden sign. Attendants in the quiet uniform of the Casino silently rolled up a square box set upoh wheels. Out} of the box they lifted cases of money which they put in the receptacles at! the croupier’s hand. Once, in just! such a mood as she’ evidenced now, | Mademoiselle Joanna had broken the bank: When she played the double maximum for an hour _and had a win- ning streak, the chef de partie provid- ed rly for emergency.

There. were reported to the board a total of 197 crossing acci- dents, and in 229 of them automobiles were involved. As recently as. 1912 there was not a crossing accidént in all Canada in which a motor car was concerned according to available fig- ures. The previous high total of cros- sing accident deaths was set in 1924 when 94 lives. were lost in this man- ner. OourT OF @ases ended in death!

In the atrium; the reH and gold hung foyer of the Casino, Yvonne and Mi- chael were awaiting them. “The rooms are crowded,” observed. I’ve decided to place at the roulette tables.” Around each of the tables were crowds four or five deep—tlie late af- ternoon company of curious visitors to the world’s gayest shrine of sin, tourists, cocottes seeking monsieurs for the evening, and old women hang- ers-on holding chairs with the hope of selling them to after-dinner ~habit- ues. All of these last, the old women of the gambling rooms, Knew each one of the party that. crossed the wide polished floor of the splendidly decor- ated rooms and glanced about for ploces.

Both had been the heroines. of sensational plays that had become Casino legends. Yvonne dropped into a chair: Michael bought from an old hag for a fifty franc note.

KEEP LITTLEONES = _ WELL IN WINTER ‘By Regulating the Stomach and Bowels With Baby’s Own Tablets Winter is a dangerous season for the little ones. The days are change- able—one bright, the next cold’ and storniy, that the mother is afraid to take the children out for. the fresh air and exercise they need so much.
