'.Don't muss my hair
Standing half within the shadow of
the administration building, with the
softened beams of the moonlight play
ing cinch with her West Monroe street
features, Myrtle Cummings gazed up
with fond and trusting gaze into the
mobile countenance of Archibald Fitz-
morris. But few short weeks had
these happy souls known the sweet
communion of each others company,

alone, with no kindred spirit, to mend
his suspenders, no sympathetic heart
to ache when he lost his little all at
the races. But now new light had
dawned upon him, his soul expanded
beneath it's cheering ray and he pressed

mellowed by distance, floating to their
ears from the fairylike wooded island,
the great white palaces rearing their
massive domes above them, the silvery
moonlight shimmering over all and
Archibald's new shoes seeming to be-
come tighter and tighter, the beauty

at his vest. There upon his manly
breast glitGered a golden star with an
