Love or
Death
By Rafael Sabatini
The world is reading

The world is reading
Sabatini and so may you.
We have secured the above
story from the pen of this
talented Italian-English-
man, probably the most
popular writer Of the day,
and equally at home in
writing pure history or
pure romance. Il is a tale
Of the time when captains
were also uoubadors, ex-
pressing their hearts in
song beneath the windows
of dark-eyed beauties;
when it was the custom,
/ upon love or adventure
bound, to 60 forth masked;
when, two men meeting,
1t was a question whether
plunied hats would be
raised or swords would
fash and when a gentle
man without a dagger was
not completely aPParelled
for social occasions "a
jolly old period which
Sabatini knows so well
how to reanimate.

President Coolidge will without

the double envelope in sending out
formal invitations. Not that the Pres
jdent needs to be reminded that q
large saving Is represented in. this
idea. For some time past the invita-
tionS to the White House levees have
gone in one envelope instead of two
rs during all previous administrations,
though a small envelope is also re-
puired TO hold the card of admission.
But in wedding invitations and on
formal occasions in general, Washing
ton ClingS to the custom of having two
coverings where one would be quite
sufficient. Nearly all the members
Uf the foreign corps say that this is
an expensive habit which thrives more
commonly in the American capitals
than in any other Latin Americans
say that never in their various lands
is such an expense added TO that of
sending formal invitations with an
inner covering. and then the extra
postage required TO send both. In
Europe though the custom prevailed
previously, nearly all officials have
since the war followed President Cool
1dge'S example and abandoned 1t. In
London, invita- tons to court functions
show the nipping off Of all extra eN-
penSe. but in private life no change
j. apparent, especially in regard TO
Wedding invitations or fashionable as
Semblies and other club fetes. In
Paris many sensible hostesses have
their invitations printed, use as little
flourish as possible, and the same is
true in Italy Washington. say many
