Present Day Honeymoon.

Keen observers have noted that
newly married co"ples Of moderate
means are beginning to take a more
sensible view Of tie honeymoon, and
even wealthy people are showing
tendency to limit the wedding tour to
three or four days in Paris.
The old-fashioned idea that a young
married couple must cut themselves
of from their friends and spend more
money than they can afford at expen-
sive hotels is gradually giving way to
the more commonsense practice of dis
appearing for three or four days.
Some unconventional couples have
recently gone 50 far as to make OF
their honeymoon nothing more than a
week end at a popular watering place.

small opening.
Suddenly, startled by the sound of
cautiously rustled foliage, looked up.
Here, there, from a dozen shadows
peered the dark faces of the men I
had no wish to meet. One young war
rior alone stood out in the open. All
of them were naked except for neck
laces, and were daubed with indigo.
All carried spears or war clubs.
The young mans face had the cor
rugated brow of one who thinks la

"that in me they behold the great god
Four-Flush."
If concede to the cold logic of ma
terial reasoning that this dependable
companionship and love of man for
a portrait washed up by the sea was
merely the alteration of a brain un-
seated by solitude, must also believe
that series of totally incredible CO.
incidences subsequently befell me.
But, if it be that certain things are
written in the stars and certain pas
sions irrevocably decreed, my life is
freed of grotesqueness and becomes
logical.
While I lived under the sword of
the problematical tomorrow suspend
ed by the hair of an uncertain today,
my dependence upon her grew great
er. The brave man is said to die once
and the coward often, but the line be-
tween courage and cowardice is not
absolute.
There were periods when felt that
could play the game and die IL
must, with the detached philosophy of
a Socrates. At otter times wallow-
ed in the pit of forebodins and died
several times day. In these moods
/ wished for the moment of crisis
which should put my resolution to
the touch, and end the matter.
The savages did not approach my
cave; but sometimes, when evening
fell and the jungle spread itself in a
fringed blanket against the moonlight,
I could make out skulking patches of
shadow at its edge. In my rambles,
too, had sense Of being endless!y
watched by unseen eyes; and once,
bending over sunlit pool to drink,
! was startled by the haggard face
which looked up from it with streaks
of white in its long, tangled hair.
Still, each day l brought fresh Or
chids from the jungle's edge and
Eeaped them before my tangible lady.
"They are more beautiful, Frances"
told her, than any l could buy you
along the Champs Elysees or on Fifth
Avenue-and all the cost is q ship
and crew and cargo.
One morning / discovered that
where the growth of cane and moss
and unbroken, there were now several
clearly defined. alleyways, made by
the coming and going of the blacks
bent on observing me. A few inquisi-
tive steps into one of these trails ro.
vealed, at little distance, a pool of
water.
It's basin was of mossy rock, and
its edges were choked with ferns. A
slender waterfall fed it, and through
the cloistered half-light of the forest
interior fell few vivid dashes OF sun
light like gold leaf on the scmber
tones of greenery The air hung wet
and steamy like the atmosphere of
hothouse.
But the marvel of 1t was the or
chids. They climbed and trailed and
varieties of weird and subtle beauty.
One could understand why men take
their lives into their hands and pene-
trate fever-invested jungles In search
of newer types. Their delicacy was
unearthly and splendid. They were
not, 1t seemed, flowers growing on
earth-fed stems, but blossoms OF the
gods. Each one was like the bloom.

 Beskid Pass in the Carpathians where the fierce Austrian attacks have some what moderated. Apparently the Rms
