her arm around his neck and drawing his
head down into her lap, you have been
very restless for . few days past. Tell line,
darling, what troubles you" She bent
down and kssed his red. voluptuous lips.
Nothing troubles me" be answered
emphaticaily. Who could be worried In
such a place, at such time as thisg Do
you remember RiIey's poem on Juneg
Il seems to voice the very spirit Of this
hour:
20 queenly month Of indOlent rspose:
crlgk they breath In sips o. rare perfume.
Az ID My downy lap Of clover-bloom
Inestle like a drowsy child, AL dQze
The lazy houry away The zephyr taruws
The shifting Shuttle u the sunHers l9fn,
And weayes q d8aask-worx - g=an AMI gloom.
Before thy iisiIess feet. Thciuy biaws
A bugie-call Of fragrance DER tts glade:
And wheeling into ranks. with pune aud spear.
Thy haryestarmies gather parade;
while. faint and far away. yet pure aud clear
A yoite calls out 81 alien lands u saade.-
All hall lie Peerless Goddess Of the Year,
Beautiful exclaimed Rhoda
Yes-but dusty" added Harlan reiiiing
his champagne glass and draining Il to the
bottom.
WHAT a changeable fellow you are,
Harry! One moment you are soaring in
the clouds, listening to the music Of the
spheres. The next instant you come down 70
earth and cal for copy Of Puck or Judge, !"
So much the more fun. The man who
can derive enjoyment from Shelley and
Bill Nye Ia not likely to be bored In this
world"
Perhaps not. But AZ he goes through
life he may cause vast amount Of sorrow
TO those who love him."
Why2 don't quito understand youls
Yes you do. Harry. You know well
what mean. Your heart 10 as tickle e
your mind. Two months ago you were
mentally In lovo with chemistry Last
week there was nothing worthy your at
tention save the old English dramatists.
Next week expect to find you infatuated
with astronomy By the end OF your
Senior year you will be mentally blas6,
worn out with the short-lived enthusiasms
Of your four years sojourn here"
Good heavens, what lecturel" cried
Harlan, lighting cigarette and playfully
blowing the smoke upward into the hand
some face above him. And you say my
heart Is as unstable as my mind?'
" fear 1t is," she answered sadly. You
will always receive more love than you
can give"
The young man gazed thoughtfully across
the rant meadows and the undulating
hills, while an amused smile played around
his mouth. Presently he seized her thin,
white. shapely hand and kissed 1t passion
ately.
Il love you, Rhoda. Are you not con-
tent"
An expression OF WEAKNESS, almost Of
pain crossed her face as she stroked the
white smooth forehead that cleaned like
marble In her lap.
Content. Yesgor the moment, But
q year from now! Nilat them"
HARLAN laughed nior,5Ecly.
