hoping to elude him.
Gordon, who watched her closely
all of the time, waited until she
should leave. So he was on hand
when fire broke out. In few sec
onds the theatre was thick with
smoke. AS he hurried to Violet's
dressing room he stumbled over the
Waterman, already partially over
come with the fumes. He caught
Violet up and ran with her to the
open air, where he found Hilton with
his automobile. Putting the girl in
the mans arms, Gordon fastened
back to rescue the Waterman. and
when he emerged with him Hilton
and the girl had disappeared.
The next morning the papers an
nounced In large type the heroism of
Stanley Hilton, who had rescued a
chorus girl from the burning theatre.
Gordon read this item grimly and let
it stand. At the hospital, where
Violet was recovering from the nerv-
Gus exhaustion induced by her eX-
perience, she was told that Hilton
was her rescuer, that her expenses
were paid by an anonymous friend,
and she received flowers and I'M
signed notes. After her recovery, she
returned to the theatre feeling that
she owed Hilton her life. her recov-
cry, and her job, but in her heart
she hated him.
1t was the last night of the en-
gagement. Before the performers
came to prepare for the play, Cor
don slipped into the dressing room
with a bouquet of wild violets for his
lady, accompanied by a little I'M
signed note of farewell. On her
dressing table he found a huge bunch
of roses. and tucked among them a
note from Hilton, requesting that she
show her assent to his proposal by
wearing them. Enraged by this.
Gordon rushed out of the room,
stopped to conclude his official duties
by pinning on the bulletin board a
notice in regard to the dressing table
lights, and then disappeared from the
stage world But he was present at
the play. Crouched in the aisle COM
manding Hilton's box, he waited with
a pistol in his hand, prepared to save
the girl at any cost, if she allowed
herself TO make that choice. Mean
while in the dressing room Violet ex-
amined both her bouquets and read
her notes. She pondered over them,
and compared them with the notes
she had received In the hospital. She
found that these and the violet note
tailed, and q sudden impulse sent
her to the bulletin board, where she
read again the electricians order in
regard to the lights. She found
agreement again. Thankfully she
went back to her dressing room.
Then the Waterman came to her.
Say, Hilton didn't save you from
the fire. 1t was Gordon who done
it," he explained briefly and disap-
peared.

attitude pleased him, so he assumed

Violet entered the theatre in the
midst of a disjointed, ramshackle re-
hearsal. approached the manager,
shooting incessant instructions gey-
ser-like, and hesitatingly gave him
the note He stopped long enough
after reading it to tell the girl she
could have a place in the chorus
such was the strength of Hilton's in
tervention. Violet made good in her
job
For some time Hilton watched her
approvingly but let her alone after
confidng her to the interest of Clara
Delane,' the star, to whom he was
particularly devoted. Clara had her
good points, and one of them was her
kindness toward the youngsters in
the profession, and for Violet her
friendliness grew into affection. One
other person whom she interested
greatly was Frank Gordon, house
electrician. In fact, before many
days had gone he found himself in
love with the small chorus girl. and,
though diffidence kept him from say
ing anything to her, he watched over
her jealously and was particularly
alert in regard to Stanley Hilton.
It happened that when Clara De-
lane was hurt by a bit of falling
scenery Violet was. the only person
knowing her lines, and to the little
ingenue was given the star role for
the rest of the performance. She
handled it we'll, and won much
praise, attracting again the Grant
attention of Hilton. He began to
haunt the theatre more than before,
seeking interviews with her, which
she tried to avoid. One night she

MONDAY, JUNE ], 1914.

On this day it is well, astroIogers
declare, to avoid persons in positions
of power. for the Sun BODIES i'll for
those who ask privileges of employ
ers or seek favors from financiers.
Under this rule there is a sign pecu-
liarly sinister where government Of
ficials are concerned. IT is foretold
that scandals will develop and party
dissensions will multiply among
politicians.
While the Sun is exercising an
evil rule the seers warn men and
women to keep their own counsel and
to avoid disclosing any plans that are
important. 1t is not an unfortunate
time to begin new enterprises, how
ever, if they are kept secret.
Danger from the effects of high
temperature is common while this
government prevails. Violent exer-
else should be avoided, as the blood
is easily overheated when the chief
luminary is evilly disposed toward
the inhabitants of the Earth.
There is a fair omen for women.
Those who are in business should be
lucky today.
1t is an suspicious time for wed
dings and courtships. All social en-
tertainments should be successful.
Actors, musicians and artists should
benefit, If they are careful not to an
tagonize persons who employ them
The signs favor good work more than
the recognition of talent.
Hotel keepers have an encourag
ing augury, although it is likely that
ali who conduct summer resorts will
sustain losses the first part of the
season.
Public or business success through
agreeable manners and tactful meth
DDS are promoted during this aspect
1t is predicted that a severe storm
at sea will cause loss of life this
month. The augury is that drownings
will be numerous from this time I'M
til late in the autumn.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is may
have business troubles during the
year. They probably will have
pleasant experiences in all that per-
! tains to their home life. The young
have the representation of courtship
or marriage.
Children born on this day are like
" to be high-tempered. BOYS prob
ably will not be good business men,
but as subjects of Gemini they may
be extremely gifted. Girls probably
will marry young and have fair for
tune.

Astrology finds this a favorable
day. since Jupiter. Mercury and Nep-
tune rule strongly for good.
It Is a time for visiting friends,
hearing good music and enjoying out
door amusements
There is fortunate sign for excur-
sions. Children, however. should be
watched carefully, as the seers pre-
dict many strange accidents TO the
young.
Mercury is in a place believed to
impart quickness of thought and
speech, readiness of resource and
power to lead.
In conjunction with Jupiter the
planets aspect is favorable for trade
and gives forecast of success for all
who sacrifice themselves to the well
fare of others.
This sign is extraordinarily for
tunate for all who seek publicity by
means of printing.
There is a prophecy that states
man will gain fame through a book
which will be sensational in its rep
resentation of public men.
Discussions among women are fore
told by the stars. There is a govern
ment, which indicates troubles that
eliminate in the national capitol and
in a certain Western State. Illinois
has sinister sign.
Social affairs have a good omen for
the summer. Newport and other
fashionable resorts are likely to have
| a season of great brilliancy which
will contrast with the necessary
policy of retrenchment in other quar-
tiers.
i, The death of a well-known feminist
| is prognosticated. The summer will
bring much illness to women. the
seers predict.
The Panama Pacific Exposition is
/ subject TO a more favorable rule than

| but San Francisco will have many
problems to meet within the next few
months. There is a prediction OF
great artistic attainment in which
women will have a share of fame.
Persons whose birthdate il is will
have year that is fairly lucky, but
men will have much responsibility IN
business. Speculation will be attended
by loss.
Children born on this day will be
generous in excess, but not money
makers, unless they are methodically
trained. Girls have the omen of happy
marriage.
