WHEN A GIRL MARRTES
A NeC Serial of Young Married Life
BY Ann Isle

CHAPTER XIV. (Continued.)
But all the while I FUSED" I was
trying to nerve myself to the point of
kissing Virginia when she arrived and
did it, clinging to her almost tenderly
and not letting myself be hurt when she
pulled herself away and flung herself
into .Jim's arms, crying:
You're not cross with your Jeanie
any more-are you brother-boyf"
Jim held her close.
Virginia seemed all tenderness-and no
tide of cold self-consciousness weiled up
to nip her warmth When she came
into the bedroom to remove her hat and
furs she chartered away eagerly. Later
l came to realize what all her small talk
meant what subject she was trying to
avoid. And yet-perhaps her object
was kindly-she may have been trying
to avert the very thing that happened.
We. had two delightful hours. vir-
ginia and Jim reviewed for me some Of
their childish escapades. And our
party" and the laughing "reminiscences
seemed to bring me close to the warm,
human Virginia who had always eluded
me heretofore.
At six Betty came in on our laughing
group. Then Neal-and the end OF my
dream that Virginia and | could be
friends.
"Oh, Mrs. Dalton I've been phoning
you Neal said eagerly. II want 70 take
Phoebe out to dinner. May II"
THAT is quite impossible" said vir-
ginia with a suggestion Of her old
frigidity--then she added more kindly,
"Phoebe's really too young 10 dine alone
with men"
suppose Neal should have asked viz
ginia 70 chaperone them, but instead, be

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory.

for as there were only twenty -four black
birds, of course the King could only be
"a years old.
And then one of the kings servants
came in with pretty gilt cage for Puss
to put his bird in; and each one Of the
guests had a cage too, to put his bird
in, and after that the regular feast com
menced; but I'm not going to tell you
what they all had to eat, for it would
make you so hungry that you would go
right over to the candy shop and get an
Ice cream cone.
And after the feast was over, they
, all went out in the garden, and just as
they stepped outside, there came a
dreadful scream from the kitchen gar
den. And what do you suppose hap.
pened? Why, just as one of the maids
hung up some pretty pink and blue
handkerchiefs on the clothes line q
bIackbird few down and bit Off her
nose.
l suppose he was angry to think-xhat
some of his brothers and sisters had
been baked in a Pie but that wasn't
the poor maids fault, was st?
So then everybody called for the court
physician and when he looked at the
maids nose, he said:
LHe Dlru ulunL take or DIT. He
just pinched It,"
Perhaps he thought it was a cherry
said Puss with a grin, for the maid s
nose and very red from crying, you see.
But when you come to think of 1t, she
wasn't crying before the blackbird
came, so how could 1t have been red +?
SO guess l was right when I said the
blackbird pinched her nose for spite.
Well. after that Puss went into the
parlor where the queen was eating bread
and honey, and then into the counting
house where the king was counting
money, for he wanted to say goodby and
to thank them for his lovely hlackbird
and the gilt cage. And after that he

Believe Bottom Reached

The Stock Exchange firm of J. S.
Bache & Co. has taken the position
that the major downward movement in
prices which has been in evidence since
November, 1919, is now in its final
stage. Just as in minor movements
commented their market writer yester
day, "an upward swing usually loses its
entire gain in one-half the time il took
to build it up, SO we have two years Of
rising prices followed by one year of
declining prices. Witness 19l5-l916.

Coppers Turn Weak

Announcement that the Anaconda
Copper Mining Company had decided to
shut down three Of its zinc mines
served to focus attention yesterday on
the copper and zinc shares, and al
though it seemed that they had al
ready discounted further unfavorable
developments in the industry, they
turned decidedly weak. Anaconda was
the weakest of the copper group, sell
ing down to Al, or 41s points under
Saturdays last sale. The curtailment
at the Anaconda zinc mines will bring
the monthly output down from 10000
coo pounds to 6,C0O0OO pounds. An
official said that copper production had
already been cut 40 per cent and that
there would be no increase until there
is evidence of sustained demand for
the red metal. 1t was the opinion Of
this official that not more than one or
two companies are able to show q
profit at the present selling price OF

Wall Street heard yesterday that the
