He got up. in the other barber chair;
and JohnniS bravely pinned a towel

squirted some on the head of the

one of the most beautiful names
which come to us through Roman
mythology is Diana. She was orig
inally Divajana, goddess of the night,
but. as she was pure as Vesta. she
was identified with the Greek Artemis,
and given possession of the temple OF
Ephesus and was thenceforth regarded
as the goddess of the silver bow and
daughter of Jupiter and Latona.
In the sixteenth century, when ro-
mances Of chivRlry began to make their
appearance, Jorge de Montemayor, the
Spanish poet, named his heroine Diana,
and her name was quickly taken up by
the sponsors of the lovely widow, Diane
de Raiters whose colors Of black and
white Henry H. of France wore even
to his last fatal tournament The CAV
alier court during it's residence In
France adopted Diana and carried 1t
back to England where there were as
'many Lady Dyes as Lady Bettys and
Lady Fannys.
In some instances Diana is regarded
as the name Of the charitable lady
referred to in the Scriptures as "Dinah
OF the Ephesians." In the eighteenth
century there was Norma Diana in
Florence whose chief claim to fame
was that she mstook large stone that
fell on her head off building, for q
small pebble because she wore such
an elaborate headdress.
Crystal is Dianas talismanic gem.
It guards her youth and purity, accord
ing to old superstition, and brings her
many friends. Sunday is her lucky day

She dreams, figuratively speaking, OF

And of being just care-free girl

And then-with visions OF some idylltc

And they fume and fuss and worry
and argue over where they shall go.
And correspond with twenty or more
rapacious hotel proprietors.

And make sure that the last OF the
