"It's wonderful to see you again," he exclaimed over and over on long, uneven breathe. Ha

Ellen struggled to free her hands. Pride returned and with it came anger at this man who had hurt her ao cruelly. Larry only pressed her hands more tightly. He would not let her go.

"Aren't you glad to see me?" come

"anw you when you came in," she reminded him in a colourless tone.

(Continued from Page 3.) Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday increased her feverish longing. She questioned Tony about the last time, he had been, there. Surely lie would again. She considered and then discarded the notion of calling Symes to ank his help. Ellen know in some deep and secret way that Larry would come again to

For a moment the trembling, confused, almost deliri- ously excited girl did not under- atand. It seemed to her That Larry flushed, and then the warmth left her and she went ley cold,

For Larry's gaze moved past her. Without a sign of recognition he ntrolled to Tony's table. She heard him laugh as he asked Tony to dance with him.

For a long time Ellen remained senied. The room buzzed with voices. Even the clatter of traffic and the faint, faraway noises of the street seemed only to accen- tuate the galety of the dance floor. They were happy, the little dancing girls in their flimsy frocks, enger and expectant, excited as they laughed up into the eyes of their partners. Ellen knew that mood. She remembered when she too had been as jublant.

"It's all finished," she thought' impersonally, almost as if she were thinking of another girl. "It's all finished between

It's a completely ended as if it had never happened."

He was here in this very room and he had not spoken to her. He had turned away indifferently to dance with another girl. Elen meant nothing to him, had never meant anything to him. The fact that they had not met for weeks --that meant nothing either.

"He's forgotten me," slie told herself in endless and bewildered pain. "I'm no more to him than a girl he might have met on a ferry boat ride. I'm nothing him and I've thought of nothing except him for months."

REALTY COMPANY. 8% DEBENTURES 8% INTEREST VS 6% INTEREST MEANS ONE THIRD MORE INCOME

Why not make that EXTRA 1/3rd?

THERE

seems to be а

well-established

belief that no matter how much money

an Investment or Public Utility Company may make out of its operations, it should pay no more than 6% per annum for the use of the Public's money which makes its operations possible.

This idea is advantageous to the Borrowing Company and gives that Company opportunity to make increased profits. So well established is this theory that 6% has come to be synonymous with soundness and safety of a security.

Is this true? belief?

Do the facts substantiate this

The China Realty Company in its very large mortgage business is investing the Public's

money.

We have always felt that this "Investing, Public" was entitled to a more equitable share of the returns obtained from

the use of its money than is represented by 6% We have demonstrated, as our record shows, that we can afford to give the Investing Public 8% for the use of its money and yet make a satisfactory profit for the shareholders of the Company.

A sum invested at 8% will give you ar income 1/3rd greater than the same sum invested at 6%.
