CONTINUED from Yesterday.

! The years brought about a change
in Sam. The friends he had made at
the university frequently invited the
boy to come with them to dances and
theatres. Although he realized that
such pleasures were beyond his
means. he stified his conscience with
the old adage about all work and no
play making Jack a dull boy.
Lena sometimes wondered whether
her sacrifice had been altogether wise.
1t seemed to her that her betrothed
was drifting away from her. Sam
was no longer the lovable boy whose
eyes We're raised TO the stars While
he still pegged away at his studies,
it was not because OF his old over
Whelning ambition to reach the front
ranks of the medical profession. but
because 1t would bring him money
which would enable him to partake OF
the good times his friends were en-
joying.
Nor did Sam hesitate to request
Lena for loans whenever his purse
was empty. In vain the girl remon-
frightened into silence when Sam. I'M
able to endure her pleas. impatiently
cried:
Now, sea here, Lena, I've got to
go out with the boys. If YOU love me
you would not constantly ask me to
keep my nose to the grindstone.
am young man and have got to see
life. After my graduation I'll marry
you and settle down. But first I've
got to have some amusement"
Sam never realized the extent of
his selfishness. Indeed, as time went
on, he regarded Lena as a hindrance
and looked upon his marriage to her
with something of dread. In compar-
ison to the sisters and friends of the
boys with whom he associated Lena
looked poor and drab. Her worn,
faded dresses, her Thoroughbred
sion. And especially was this so aft
er he met Rebecca Levy.
Rebecca was a stenographer. From
the soles of her sample shoes, S2.9S-
marked down from $7-to the top of
her deliberately coiffured head, she was
an exact prototype of the spoiled only
daughter. Rebecca loved just one
person-Rebecca. Her only thoughts
We're of dresses and beaux who could
spend money for her enjoyment.
Rebecca was two or three years
older than Sam. Fortunately for the
boy, he met her just before his grad
uation, else he would have lavished
his tuition fees upon the girl From
the moment he met her Sam was her
AFFECT slave. Woman-llke, Rebecca
realized that she had made another
capture the monqent he looked INTO
her eyes.
Mrs. Levy. the girls mother. vas
of the old-fashioned Jewish type. She
liked Sam. Was he not a doctor-or

pride and JOY. Lena and her foster
father view the exercises. The old
man involuntariiy Strengthened up
in his seat when Sans name was
called and the boy approached the
dais.
In the front row, Rebecca viewed
the proceedings with boredom. She
had been compelled to refuse an in
Vitation to a dance because of this
affair and regretted her decision.
After ALL she thought. I'm a
fool to waste my time on Sam. He's
poor and can't afford to show a girl
a good time--he's taken me to only
three dances in the last month.
Theatres Huh! He couldn't even af-
ford gallery seat. Will this stupid
affair never end. | think I'll tell him
it's all off between us when he takes
me home tonight
Rebecca's thoughts were inter-
rupted Just then by nudge on the
elbow. The complacent-faced youth
who had his hand on her arm smiled.
Hello, Rebecca," he greeted her.
MY friend, Hymie Adler, wants to
meet you. Hymie," he said, turning
TO that Individual meet Miss Levy"
Rebecca approved of Adler after her
first glance of appraisal He looked
like a good spender. Flashily at
tired, his fingernails over-manicured,
an immense diamond ring upon his
right hand, he fairly breathed PROS
perity. Before long Rebecca, by skill
full questioning, discovered that Hy-
mle was n travelling salesman and
fond of the good things in life. Sam
was forgotten.
The exercises drew to a close. Sam,

His father and Lena We're the first to

In his great happiness Rathkowitz
would have embraced his son, but the
boy evaded the outstretched arms.

Dumfounded, and cut to the quick
Ratkowitz stared at his son.

"Oh, it isn't that" impatiently ex-
claimed Sam; but l can't explain
now. You and Lena go home" he
continued, his eyes on the stairs. "Ill
come home later"
The old man followed his sons
eyes. He saw Rebecca slowly de-
scending the steps. Sam ran half
way up to meet her. Lena saw the
light In her betrothed's eyes as he
took Rebecca's arm. With moan
she turned to Ratkowitz and urged
him to take her home. With heavy
heart the old man complied.
Rebecca, however, got away from
Sam. How she managed to elude him
he never knew A half-formed fear
was in his mind Believing that tho

girl had acted coolly because she had
seen his poorly clad father Sam re-
solved to leave home and live where
his father could not continually
shame him by his shabby appear
ance.
Fastening home, he found that the
old man and Lena had not arrived as
yet. Scrawling a note. Sam placed
it in the Bible on the table This
done, the migrate hurried from the
house.
Ratkowitz and Lena came home
shortly after Sam had made his
hurried departure. The father me-
chemically kissed the "Mezzuzah. :"
Lena walked over to the table and
took off her hat. The note project
ing from the Bible attracted her at
tention. Picking It up, she read;
Il find that | no longer love you
Lena:
The money you spent for my studies
viii be repaid just as soon as | can
get the money. Good-by, SAM"
Lena reeled and clutched the table
for support. The room seemed to be
spinning round.
Lena! Lena, my child! what Is
it?'' cried Ratkowitz, his voice filled
with alarm.
Lena, her body shaking with sobs,
handed the note to her foster father
Dropping into the chair, the girl cried
as though her heart would break.
As Ratkowitz read the note which
his ungrateful son had left behind
he trembled with rage.
1.-THE ungrateful hound!" he bel
lowed "The ungrateful hound! AS
one casts aside a vessel that is Of no
further use, so he casts you aside
saw light A thousand plaques rest
upon his heart-a heart made of
stone!"
In the face of the old mans ter
rible rage, Lena dried her tears and
attempted to pacify him At length
she succeeded in calming him, but
Ratkowitz vowed that, henceforth,
the world should no longer know
Sam as his son.
Passover, the Jewish feast COM
memorating the flight of the chill
dren of Israel from Egypt, drew
nigh. Ratkowitz, as was his yearly
custom, instructed Lena upon the
of the occasion.
Shortly before the Feast of Pass
over, the two placed pieces of bread
about the humble fiat, and then,
while Lena accompanied him with
a lighted candle, the old man care
fully went from room to room,
sweeping the bread into a wooden
spoon by means of a chicken feather
When all was collected, Ratkowitz
bound the leaven, spoon and feather
together in a piece of cloth. This
was burned the following morning.

almost one? And what greater luck
could befall a girl without a dowry
than to marry such a boy? Mrs.
Levy made of Sam an honored guest
whenever he called.
Graduation day drew near. Sam
invited Rebecca to attend the COM
mencement exercises and was trans
ported to the seventh heaven of de-
light when that young miss gracious
ly accepted his invitation.
Back in SANS humble home the ap-
preaching occasion seemed almost sa-
cred. At last, after years of toll and
hardship, Sam had arrived at the goal
of his ambition. Ratkowitz, for once,
deserted his beloved Hebrew phil
osophers to dwell upon Sans many
and wonderful qualities.
Few fathers indeed, are blessed
with such wonderful sons as / have
in my SAM" he said To Sulowitz, the
baker, after the Sabbath service in
the synagogue. "a few years ago he
was shaving at the machine in
IIirsh's sWeatshop. Now he is q doc
tor Honor he brings upon my gray
hairs and to his house. Soon he will
be amassing a fortune and will dwell
in q house such as BELTS his station.
Lena will be his wife-a better girl
the good God, glory be to Him. never
sent upon this earth And | shall
make my home with them"
The great occasion drew nigh.
Ratkowitz carefully attired himself
in his Sabbath clothes.
Come. Lena, my beloved daugh-
ter. Bring the whislSbroom and brush
some of this dust from my collar. All,
this dust, in my Sans house. where
he will live when he is a famous doc
Ia. oil Ia
constructed that the dust will not
gather"
Despite the hard days work at the
factory, Lenas eyes burned brightly,
while her heart was filled with heav-
emily delight. The girl was attlred in
a neat shirtwaist and skirt. Her fin
gers had trembled so when she had
donned them that she could scarce
fasten the hooks and eyes. Lena has
tened to do her foster fathers bid
ding.
Shortly afterward the two set out
for the university. Sam had left the
house an hour previous on the pre-
text that he had some work TO do
before the exercises. The "work" con-
sisted of fastening to Rebecca's house
and escorting that young lady to the
college.
Due to Sans efforts, Rebecca Sc
cured a seat In the first row OF the
balcony His father and Lena, how
ever. were seated in the last row,
behind one OF the pillars. Sam,
ashamed of their humble appearance,
had arranged to have them placed
where his friends could not see them.
Fortunately. however, neither Ratko-
WITT nor Lena were aware of this.

SUNDAY, MARCH Is, 1911.
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1914-03-14


This is a doubtful day. Astrologers
find the planets in both good and evil
aspects. but conditions are particular
~ unfayorable for women. The Sun,
Uranus and Jupiter are in places
that are strongly inimical while
Mars and Mercury are friendly.
The stars that rule for romance
and love send discordant vibrations
to Earth today, the seers declare. II
is not safe to trust to the Judgment
or to the emotions, since the adverse
sway of Uranus tends to cause de-
ceptions and misapprehensions
Warning against new acquaintances
and old suitors is given.
The influences are believed to pro
duce fickleness, unrest and Ndisconteut.
They affect the health through the
digestive organs.
Under this sway 1T is unwise TO
seek the society of persons of pronli
hence, for they may be domineering
and ungracious. 1t is a most inaus-
picious time to ask favors of any
sort.
1t is not a lucky time to collect
money. Severe losses will be sus-
tanned, If debts are pressed when
Jupiter is In evil aspect.
There is n fortunate sign for sur
geons, chemists. architects and dem
lists.
Hunters should enjoy day of ex-
traordinary sport and fishermen
should also be lucky.
Railroad men and travellers are sub
ject to q fortunate rule. They are
supposed TO be assured of safety and
success in today's journeys.
In reading the signs for the COM
ing months London astrologers give
assurance that financial conditions
will improve. Farmers and all who
till the ground may expect fairly
fruitful season.
Renewed interest In household at.
fairs will distinguish the activities OF
women, 1t is foretold. Fashion will
smile on domestic pursuits and many
old time occupations will be revived,
If the stars are read correctly. for
they prognosticate startling reao-
ton in feminine standards of life.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is have
the augury of a year that will 10
marked by increased responsibilities.
but unexpected advantages will come
to them.
Children born on this day should be
well-balanced, bright and industrious.
They are really fortunate in their pos
sibilities and should enjoy life in the
fullest manner.

MONDAY. MARCH, 1s, lsaA
Thy fortunes made
With good stars aid.

| The Sun and Neptune are in places
| held to be fortunate for human az
| fairs. Astrologers find this q, day In
which to push business interests, seek
employment and solicit the co-opera-
| ton of persons of influence. Mars,
| however Is in an aspect that Is threat
ening, and it is we'll not to provoke 3
| quarrel
The rule of the stars is favorable for
persons in authority 1t is foretold
that President Wilson will receive
great honors this month in the form
of public recognition of his ability as
q statesman. The reading Is that
kings and emperors will praise him.
By this same sign it is read that
the Mayor Of New York will gain ex-
traordinary influence in national at
fairs. His stars foreshadow unusual
| experiences in which foes arise.
| Discussion of army affairs will claim
attention again. Promotions and jeal-
ousies will cause discussion. There is
much notoriety promised for an Of
ficer of high rank.
Prelates and clergymen should ben
eft by astral conditions, which the
seers declare stimulate the activities
of the churches.
When the Sun exercises kindly sway
there Is believed to be good luck for
goldsmiths, minters of money and al
who deal In the precious metals.
Neptune is in an aspect said to be
particularly advantageous for the
study of philosophy and occult sub
jects. Poets, psychics and all who de-
pend on inspirational ideas should
profit by this configuration.
Mars is evilly disposed, and while
the Sun inclines toward genial and
kindly impulses, the planet associated
with wariike inclinations may offset
the friendly mood, provoking mis-
understandings and dissensions. Per-
sons born between March Il and April
20 are likely to be especially sensitive
to Mars in every variation of aspect.
Men and women whose birthdate 1t
is are warned against new ventures
of every sort. They have a lucky
ausury II they avoid quarrels and
lawsuits. Those who are wage-earn-
ers probably viii gain in income.
Children born on this day have q
happy omen. They should rise in their
life's work and prosper In love. Their
magnetic centre is the Sun In Pisces
and their principal ruling planets are
Neptune and Jupiter.
