WEDNESDAY. JUNE as, Iosa

lasted out three fast sets of tennis
with his new divinity. And prouder
was he of his prowess in Keeping
pace with her athletic strides in a
breath-taking climb to the summit
of Mount Torne. True. the last and
steepest quarter of the climb did
funny things to his leg muscles.
And he was put to 1t to mask his
hard breathing. Also he would
have paid $40 for a pailful of ice
water to swig. But Thetis' admir-
ing praise of why, you climb like
boy" more than made up for
this. 1t even paid for the agony
of stiffness and of wracking back
and leg cramps which made their
presence known when he woke next
morning.
When the third set of tennis
made him strangely anxious for an
hour of drowsy Ioafing instead of
the fve-mile walk Thetis proposed,
Dirck told himself that he was
merely out of training and that a
few weeks of such strenuous exer-
else would make him as supple as
she.
1t was good to be young again!
1t was passing good to be looked
on as a god by this 1.-the nymph
and to be preferred above the lads
of her own set.
And so time sped hilariously and
brought at last the date of the
Juvenile house party.
The choosing of the youthful
guests was left wholly to Thetis.
They arrived in a body. eight of
them in all. with Thetis a simmer
ing meteor in their midst.
Mazda Layne, in a dove -coIored
soft afternoon dress. was on the
Veranda to receive them. At her
side stood Dirck Moylan. resplend-
ent in a suit that would have been
extreme on a lad of 20. He had
shaver his mustache and his light
hair was brushed back smoothly
from his forehead in perfect imita-
tion of the exquisite hero of a COL
lar advertisement. Long years of
decorous parting had made the hair
rebel at such f1ippant treatment.
And vaseline had been called upon
to assist art.
Dirck had pictured the arrival of
his guests-the boisterous trooping
of the merry group up the broad
Steps, the shouts of laughter which
should re-echo through the quiet
old house; the gay repartee, the
swirl OF the fun spirit. the conta-
glon of youthful mirth. And he
oeamed all over as the punched au-
tomobiles disgorged their human
freight.

This is a favorable day to sign

Big business is to meet with some

Of public agitation, IL the aspect OF
Jupiter is properly interpreted.
There is a sign believed to be ex-
ceedingly evil for the health of the

The birthrate is likely to show some

Political troubles. party splits and

Hospitals are to be much in the

Money matters. infidelity, and
slovenliness are the chief causes
of contention in married life, but
frequently it is one little matter
that magnifies itself to such proper

After the honeymoon he begins to
neglect her a bit. He fails to ap-
preciate the dainty dinner which
she has labored over; he forgets to
tell her he, loves her; he doesn't
