Marjorie laughed easily. .s

her courage and looked at Diana
with a faint smile.

The tenderness of his answering
smile stabbed her.
"Dt has been her own adorable
self. The usual train OF infatuated
males has been following her around
but she has shown favor to none

Marjorie Langley lifted her beau

I'VE must be getting old. Steve.
Quite evidently we belong to a past
generation when girls married men
for other reasons than that they
were nice boys""
Diana defended herself warmly.
We'll, you could hardly expect me
to sit here and rave about being

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 70, 1921.
| This is read as rather a doubtful
day by astrologers. While Jupiter
and Saturn are in benefic aspect.
Uranus Is strongly adverse.
Under this planetary government
trade and commerce should show
Improvement, but there may be GER
tain conditions that retard : wide
spread revival because Uranus is
! adverse
Warning Ii given that the atti-
tude of mind which fails to indorse
and to institute right policies will
cause serious losses to American
commerce.
There Is a sign read as strongly
inimical TO our national welfare,
owing to its effect upon, the vision
lative affairs.
While there may be sinister signs,
however, the ultimate" conditions
will be most favorable to the Unit
ed States, which is to gain con-
stantly in its place among the world
powers.
! Saturn seems to promise recog-
milton Of service for the aged in
various walks of life. Honors TO
statesmen and public servants of
every class are foretold.
Reactionary tendencies that make
for wise conservatism are. to be
strong during the last weeks of the
year. .s. !
The horoscope Of the President of
the United States contains the best
aspects for. the next few weeks and
he will continue to gain great pop
ularity. A
Uranus is in place believed to
encourage intrigue and deception.
Crimes that require cleverness will
be numerous.
One Of the signs of the times will
be the introduction of ingenious

domestic customs.

PAINTED OVER COURT FINERY
Ruse by Which Nuns Had Queen De-
,picted az Member Of Their
Religious Order.

Through a chance discovery in the
garnet Of ducal palace in Madrid, a
acknowledgements romance of a
wonderful velasquezs has been re-
vealed. Hidden for three centuries as
a picture q nun, this portrait Of
Queen Isabella of Spain, the first wife
of King Philip Nv. has recently been
restored In London.
In the disguised picture practically
nothing but the face and hands of the
original was left uncovered, and the
secret was first guessed at owing to
the paint peeling away from the nuns
hood, when there was revealed the
fringe of lace collar.
Princess Isabella of Bourbon was
married to Philip in 1915, and in 1924
was staying In the convent of the nuns
belonging to the order of the Descal-
EOS. AS mark of the kindness she
there received she presented the nuns
with this Velasquez portrait Of her.
self.
Later Isabella wished to enter the
convent, but the pope would not con-
sent. The inmates of the convent
called in painter, and secretly in
structed him to paint out the queens
court dress and the lace handkerchief
In her left hand, and to present her In
the complete garb of professed nun.
