The barber was talking "Ingrowing

In her dainty. pure white gown,

As pretty girl must do,
But by her hearts deep consegtnent
She knew TINT ha thought it true,
And they danced TO the thrilling music
Oh, life was rapture thcni-
When she was the prettiest girl in town,
And he was the irst Of men
They parted with anguishod sorrow;
Time cleared tho clouded sky,
But at last nights ball She lived again
In the charmed days gone by.

Ard she heard him say as they passed her,
"You're the prctdcst girl IN townl"

capital cannot Of course be predicted
at this time by an outsider with any
degree of certainty. An inference, how
ever that is perfectly natural from re-
ports of conditions existing in Europe
is that promoters of business enter
prises will now find that field lucaa

many it is said large amounts of cap
ital are idle. Investors have little
courage and since the collapse of the
South African mining craze there has
been little to attract speculation. Tne
opportunities for profitable and safe
investment are limited and likely to be
more So 1t is also well authenticated
fact that these foreign capitalists have
little confidence in the stability of
