ably thin. Stimulated by the gold news
and a further rise in exchange sub
stantial additions to Yesterdays gains
were recorded in the initial dealings
although the rise was again mainly con

Before the end of the first fifteen min

apart from n few of the closely held

All other considerations for the time
being were relesated to the background
by the unexpected gold news. A canvas
Of the exchange situation among lead
ing international banking houses dis
closed considerable confusion and diff
ference of opinion respecting the i'm.
minence Of gold imports from England
and possibly France. Bankers having
close relations with the British Govern
ment were not disposed to attach much
credence to the overnight reports than
an extensive gold movement from Lon.
don to this market is soon to be inau.
gurated.
In the London cables IL was pointed
out that no such sum of gold Is avail
able for shipment without cncroaching
upon the reserves and the treasury Is
considered as unlikely to ship on such
a scale. The amount coming from the
Rand mines in the next three months,
estimated at $40. 900 900 may be ab-
sorbcd gradually for this market, but
this would be hardly sufficient to cause
big rise in exchange.

of Immediate gold shipments from Eng

to the increasing tightness of money.
in London and the extreme probability
of an early advance in the minimum dis
count rate Of the Bank of England. On
the other hand, it was generally conced.

essary to hasten further restoration Of

THE WATER-LILY

HE WA LILY
 The significance of the water-lily in the language of flowers is eloquence and purity of heart.
 In several countries, the water lilly is considered a powerful antidote against love potion.
 Blossoms are Enormous
 The Victoria Regia is the largest and most wonderful variety of the water-lily. The blossoms are of enor- nous size. and the leaves often meas ure nine feet across and are strong enough to support man. It blooms only a few nights. The first evening when it unfolds, it is white and has an oppressive odor; the second night it Is pink.
 Tn Germany, 1t is believed that the Undines or water nymphs make their home in the water lilies. In the even- ing, the petals shut them in and the flowers sink beneath the water.
 Old Indian Legend
 The Indians tell a. myth about the water lily. The chief of the .Caranacs had returned with all his tribe from a victorious war All were happy ex- cept Oseetah, meaning the sweet sing CT, who was to be his bride. Unknown to any one, she had made a VOW to the Great Spirit. She withdrew from the festivities and padded away in her canoe. Her lover followed. Finally she climbed to the top of a mountain, and called to the chief to return. When he did not. she jumped from the cliff into the lake below. The chief searched the lake in vain for her. The next morning, the whole lake was covered with water lilies. A man in flowing white robes appeared and told the In- dians that because Oseetah had been true to her VOW, the Great Spirit had given her a new form. Since then. the pond lily to the Indian is the emblem of good faith.

tracted by our lovely next door neigh bor, simply as specimen of beauty he had admitted many times.
 Of course Katherine came at once to call on Jim's bride. And of course, we met. My first glance made me en- vious. Her glorious tresses had never been touched by the barber's shears. They were much more magnificent than mine had ever been. When I re- membered how Bob admired lovely hair, I was filled with regret for har- ing sacrificed mine in order to play the show girl.
 Upon the occasion of the ballet, Katherine's hair would be especially conspicuous, for she promised to rep resent Miss CoIumbia-she would be the spirit of the ballot ballet, and she would wear her glorious tresses streaming over her shoulders in mag nificent contrast to the shorn JOCKS or the rest of us girls!
 That was certainly enough to spoil the spirit of a saint, and I am no saint I remembered the last time we | had a social function in the park The lights had gone out all over the place | and in the darkness,by the lily pool, Katherine Miller. She lighted his cigarette for him, and she tried to in veYgle him into a silly exchange of | sweet nothings. I had kept still be- cause I was so astonished I couldn't | speak and I heard Bob turn the con versation away from personal things and yet-had he not been tempted?
 Might not temptation in the shape of her white shoulder and her tawny hair prove irresistible another time?
 I suppose it was my recent conver- satfon with Mrs. Best, the divorced wo- man, which made me so suspicious. said to myself that I might make one angle of a triangle. but if so. it would be the big compelling right-angle. No Fwoman should win my man away fro- mel
 Jim was due at home on the morn ing of the rally. He would arrive in | his officers uniform. of course. and we were delighted that he would ap- pear in the same when he made his speech
 Deborah Burns had never seen Jim in his aviator's togs. He always pro- duces a thrilling effect although the dear boy never knows it. I felt aw- fully sorry for what was coming to Deborah Burns.
 She has never shown the least sen timental interest in any young man since she returned from her war work in Europe. Some gossips say that she had an unfortunate affair lover there; :" some say that she saw so much mock sentiment that she is sick of the name of love and some contend that she is very reasonably afraid of being mar ried for her fortune instead of her self
 I myself felt sure that Deborah's secret love for Jim makes it impossi- ble for her to consider the proposals which fall at her feet as thick as rose petals in a June garden.
 How Jim had managed to forget her charms and had made that nasty mar

Mechanical Household Appliances Are Big Part of Unique Resi- dence
BY EDWARD M. THlERRY

CHICAGO-A woman designed Evanston's "automatic" home. She calls it flat on the ground" It's a flat that needs no janitor. no maids, no coal.
 It cleans itself, sweeps itself, lights itself and heats itself.
 This unique residence has just been completed. The woman who designed 1t is Miss Leah White. She didn't even hire an architect. The builders worked from her own penciled plans.
 Open a door from the kitchen and you're in the garage. At one end is the laundry, electrically operated. In a corner is a pit, which holds a gas furnace, operating steam heated radia- tors. You light the furnace in the fall and you forget it till spring. Heat in the various rooms is regulated by thermostats scattered over the house.
 Floors Resemble Concrete

 Mir. Best was not the only guest who might spoil the rally in the Lorimer park felt sure. Several triangular relations seemed to threaten members of the family In midsummer, of course, many people whom we wanted 10 attend would be out of town. The Lorimers were all at the big mansion by the lake for several reasons, the most important being the state of Dad- dy Lorimer's health. He could not be happy away from his favorite phy- sician, and although he might have taken his doctor with the family to the big farm in the mountains, he was most comfortable in his own splendid home by the lake at the edge of the town. Quite a colony of our neighbors, known as the shore folks felt the same way.
