- Playing the Game.

At a recent bridge luncheon, two
women, after the fashion Of the sex,
were talking about another who was
for the moment a brilliant center OF
attrsction among a vivacious few.
She was u%ndeniably handsome, wear
ing her elegant clothes with ease and
grace and her laughing converse wass
piquant and charged with bright
rcpartee.

Yes, perfectly lovely replied the
other. II don't think you often see q

is one of the few women who always

She wears such good looking
clothes, too whispered the second
party to the discussion as though. so
saying, all the PROJECTIONS We're sum
med up in a fitting cOnclusion-and
everything was said.
Just then the game was called and
amidst much laughter and chatter the
places at the card tables were filled.
At the completion OF the first hand,
the paragon Of womanhood previously

that-but me AFTERNOON was, as it
