Colors In Dreams.

Red and yellow are the dream colors
II Or. Havelock Ellis is right. No 9TH
er hues come to the dreamer Of dreams.
Simroth has declared that red is the
most primitive of colors, and long ago
protoplasm from which human beings
derived their origin on the new earth
probably responded to or was affected
by red color waves.
In the depth of the sea the algae, or
seaweed, are red. With the savage red
Is the favorite color, and for bright
piece of red calico African savages
gladly would give valuable elephant
tusks.
Red strikes the note of intense emo
tons. 1t Is the color of Joy, exultation,
jubilation. Savages paint themselves
red and rejoice at seeing each other In
burning hues. German women Of the
early ages daubed their bodies with
brilliant red and yellow and considered
themselves most beauteously adorned
On sacred festivals in Rome and
Greece, Pliny records, red was smeared
over the statues Of Jupiter and was the
color of religious rejoicing. The hu-
man eyes, it is said, can distinguish
100000 different hues or colors and can
appreciate and differentiate twenty
shades Of each hue. In other words,
the eye is capable of 100000 color i'm
pressions.

This Is ungenerous," she said tense

Impression that you were to remain

Dor me. / am afraid that 1t Is serious,

e my good Intentions | shall betake
nyssk to the smoker until am able to
arrange an exchange Of seats with the
eonductor."
He raised his hat and stalked for
ward In the direction Of the cafe car,
leaving Nancy with her feelings sadly
rufiled. Only the night before Graham
had proposed to her and had been re-
fused. She was certain that her aunt,
Mn. Msrrivale, had managed to get
word to Philip that Nancy had been
tslegraphed for. His presence here
was part Of Mrs. Merrivale's match
making plans.
Had she been left to herself Nancy
would have accepted Graham: but, be-
ing young person Of spirit, she de-
elined to be forced upon Graham or
10 have him forced upon her. From
the beginning Aunt Merrivale's plans
had been too obvious
They were flying through the yard
now. She could not leave the train.
The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1908-03-13

OF course Philip would be back later
TO explain that he was unable to effect
an exchange into another car. Prob
ably he would spend the evening
across the section from her, and, un-
ike the men, there was no place to
which Nancy could retreat.
She was genuinely surprised when
presently a strange porter came for
the suit case placing another in the
seat In Its place. She smiled to her.
self with satisfaction. 1t was plain to
be seen that she had shown Graham
how she had penetrated his plan, and
he had acknowledged his defeat. Idly
she wondered If he would leave the
train at Philadelphia; then mentally
she scolded herself for taking any ia
serest in Philip Graham's movements
They were well past Philadelphia
when Graham passed her on his way
to the dining car, and Nancy rather
admired him for his persistence In re-
naming away from her. At least he
was too clever to betray his disap-
pointment that his ruse had failed.
The night had settled down. Lights
were dull, and reading was impossible.
Nancy had answered the first call for
dinner, and she resigned herself to
fdling the long hour until the berths
were made up. The message calling
her home had been vague in the ex-
treme, and in its very vagueness 1t
was the more alarming. Her father
might be dying for all she knew, and
the thought bore down upon her.
She was peculiarly sensitive to
moods, and the atmosphere of the half
deserted car was depressing. Through
the closed door of the stateroom at
her back came the wailing cry Of a
baby, to which was occasionally added
the more lusty note of growing child.
Across the aisle man played innu-
merable games Of solitaire, the sharp
whir Of the shuttle punctuating his
grunting, half audible comments at the
run Of bad luck. Just ahead two wom-
en- were discussing dressmaking IN
shrill tones which rose above the
steady rattle of the train, and here and
there some man leaned idly back In
bis seat and turned his newspaper

was only seventeen years old at the
time and was at work as an usher In
the Lowell museum. Booth, who was
then In the zenith Of his power and
fame, was billed there for three nights.
The play was Richard III" Klmball
had thoroughly studied the play and
was considered young man Of prom.
lsing dramatic ability. On the open

Of Lord Norfolk failed to show up.
Booth was In despair. At last some
one suggested that young Klmball
knew the lines OF that part, and he
was cast for II by Booth.

to balance myself on one foot and
