A thing like that might be
happening to Vivian now. She
closed her eyes on the stark

returning. She would lift her

He went back to the desk; sat

couldn't shut out Vivian's eyes;
her fingers touching his cheek;
her lips kissing him good-by.
He tried to stop though; but it
came recurrently.
At l o'clock Chickie went up
and put her arms around him.
She said softly: Poor boy"
She thought Of Jon and how
easily things may happen. She
tried to comfort Sherry. Then
she sent him home.

THE SEVEN WONDERS

Nearly everyone has heard of the
seven wonders of the world, but probably
few could name them and fewer could tell
such things might clip this out for their
scrap book.
The seven wonders of the world were
so named by Antipater, writer of Pales-
tine, about 200 B. c., as follows:
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon,
destroyed In 484 B. c., more than 100
years before they We're listed among the
wonders.
The Temple of Diana at Ephesus,
burned in 262 A. D.
The Statue of zeus at Olympus, de-
stroyed in 408.
The Colossus of Rhodes, sold for junk
in $50.
The Lighthouse of Pharos at Alex
andria, fell in an earthquake in 1875.
The Mausoleum of Artemisia, de-
stroyed in 1402.
The Pyramid of Cheops, the only one
of the Seven Wonders" still in existence.
Such were the seven wonders of the
ancient world Many lists of modern won-
ders have been made, but recent writer
selects not the perishable works of man,
but the discoveries and inventions which
have fevolutionized civilization.
He names the radio, the telephone,
the airnlane. antiseptics, spectrum analysis
and radium. Whether his list is the best
