THE DAILY NOVELETTE,
ROMEO
by LOUISE NJ. ADDELSON

DOMEO was his name, and like the
~ more famous Romeo of old he could
make loving and mpassioned speeches
when he wished. But he 6idn't always
wish. When things went smoothly Ro-
meo was merry. bright and converse
tional But il anything happened TO
ruffe his feathers he could be as TEN e.
pcramental as any grand opera star,
becoming, by turns. silent. morose and
irritable. Nevertheless. he, had his fav-
oritcs. to whom his words were loving
and his accents sweet. though the unin- -
itiated might have found his voice a
trif1c harsh. For Romeo was n parrot,
whose dearest and most devoted friend
was aged Mrs. Scott. his owner for
twenty years. and whose bittercst enemy
was her grandniecc. Hester, aged seven
teen.
Hester had no respect. it seemed,
either for Romcos years or his wisdom.
She was in the habit of slyly poking
him in the ribs. of teasing him, when
she wanted little amusement for her
self or her friends. of offering him gifts
in q honeyswept voice when he was fast
asleep and of withdrawing them when
he was sufficiently reused to accept the
goodies she tempted him with. Romeo
bore the laughter that followed val
iantly. But he acquired an implacable
hatred for Hester.
Hester meanwhile. faced the world
mcrrily. little dreaming that the future
might bring uudesire6 complications
into her life. She was having a good
time. True. she had fallen off in her
studies. but studies were bore. any
how. and she wasn't going TO allow a
trif1e like that to bother her. For weeks
Edgar Tratton had escorted her home
ON school. to the modification of sev-
"nl of the most attractive young ladies
in attendance there. He had become,
in fact. Hester's abject slave. At Il
very early date Edgar began 10 regard
himself as one of the family. The two
would come in of an afternoon, devoui

they had eaten their fill. start the
phonograph. or perhaps Hester wouit
play the piano and sing, while Edgar
accompanied her on the violin. BE
tween the two of them they managed tC
make so much racket that poor Ro
meo's tortured squack went all un-
noticed, and one afternoon Mrs. Scot
felt called upon. out Of sheer despcra
ton, to order Edgar from the house

in her determination to expel Master

evening. Romeo didn't know. perhaps,
that it was only n few days before
examinations, but he did know that
something out of the ordinary was com
ing off. He sensed it on a certain day
when Edgar entered the house a little
more quietly than usual. and Hester
met him at the door with a restrained
and eager expression. Edgar regarded
her with what was meant to be look
or undying love and determination on
his usually sheepish face.

Romeo heard him say. we love each

GOSSIP OF THE STREET
FINANCIAL WORLD
SHOULD BE THANKFUL FOR
Summary Of Reasons Long They We're Short PreuiouS
Lean Years in the Stock Market

WHO got the Thanksgiving turkey ?
w The sweeping reaction two weeks
ago took the prize from the bulls. The
innings of the bears have beer short and
have net few runs. The wounded
bull will say the prize landed in the
laps of the money lenders. and the OK
pcctant bears claim nothing but the tail
feathers.
The question then arises what has the
market world to be thankful for? While
the SGT market program of many of the
ovcrdaring pools and cliqucs has been
rudely upset, there arc to be found many
things which tho market followers can
be grateful for. Everybody apparently
enjoys fruitful occupation. an abundant
supply of money, the satisfaction of o
profitable season ended and the hope Of
