He paused for a moment. "The daily woman Was over at Grantstone-she slept over at her sis- ter's place there last night,” he said.
Getlin's throat began to feel odd. The muscles seemed to be contracting. ills volce sounded strange when he began to talk.
"Well "he said. "What of it? Varne had his own key . ?"
"No, he hadn't," said the Inspector. "He dropped it in the street last night. Somebody found it and brought it into the Police Station at eleven o'clock. I was on duty at the time. I've had it ever since."
He put on his uniform cap.
"That leaves you, Mr. Getlin," he said. "Well you come along to the station, and," he went on "I must warn you that anything you say from now on may be used in evidence against you.

Ice-Box Beauty Aids Are Cooling And Refreshing
By PATRICIA LINDSAY Certainly the busy housewife or career girl cannot complain that beauty firms have not given them all the consideration they deserve. A host of time-saving cosmetics have been intro- duced in the past couple of years which makes it possible for each of us to go through a thorough grooming routine in a twinkle. Many of these cosmetics are discs of cotton cloth saturated with lotion which do their work quickly and efficiently.
I call these beauty aids, ice-box cosmetics, for I feel they must be kept where it is cool during the summer months so they will not turn the least bit rancid and will be refreshingly cool when you use them.
There are minute cleansing and make-up pads which are simply grand to take with you on brief journeys or to the office, as well as to have for a hurried do-over at home. Several anti-perspirants and deodorants come in the disc form, and what could be more conducive to daintiness than these? Pat a single pad over the skin area which perpires most freely and there is little danger of your best friend wanting to tell you something!

This style may be slightly too ela- borate for offscreen girls, but it can be used on the screen. You may find it interesting for a particularly specta- cular occasion, or for experiment. It might be good with a period evening

Producers are critical of screen tests. If you show them a hair- dress that was popular last year, they will like it. If it's absolutely new, they can't bear it. It's the same with hats. Show any man a hat worn last Spring and he thinks it's very nice. He's used to it. Show him a new hat and he hoots.
Try your hair in an upswept style to-night, and your husband, unless he's a very unusual fellow, will be appalled. But take him around to pictures and show him Loretta Young, other beautiful girls wearing it, and Ginger Rogers, Gloria Stuart and
