In some one whom he bad not seen,

Through the windows be could see

though it was different from the ways

not help but note within his own

In it—a longing for the company of
these strange, new people.
He had crept quite close to the ve

down to him upon the almost stagnant

daughter of Tha. sat among these
strange people before the entrance to
their wonderful cave.
And yet Nu could not believe the
evidence of bls own senses. What
could Nat-ul be doing among such as
these? How, between two suns, could
she have learned the language and the
ways of these strangers?
It was impossible. And then a man
upon the veranda, who sat close be

to light a cigarette and the flare of
the blase lit up the girl's features. At

5536-41 st Ave. 8. E. in honor of their
friend Mrs. Tilley Warner, assisted by
several invited guests. The rooms were
tastefully decorated, the color scheme
being violet.
Suspended from the
chandelier over the center of the table
were violet ribbons at the ends of
which were attached small vases filled
with violets, her birthday flower. In the
center under this canopy of ribbons was
a large birthday cake, decorated with
wax tapers. The place cards were of a
pretty design made of pussy willow buds
to represent three little kittens on a
fence with the inscription, “Who will
sing the song of Spring”—Pussy Will-O.
The afternoon was spent in songs and
games.
After partaking of a dainty
luncheon the guests departed, each

on the evening of Feb. 29th, to help
him celebrate his thirteenth birthday.
Tho be looks much older than 13, the
age he claims to be, the weight of years
does not seem to hang heavy on his
head. The evening was very pleasantly
spent in games and music, Mrs. White
did her part by serving refreshments
and needless to say there was nothing
left of the birthday cake,
Many more
birthdays Mr. White, combined with
happiness and health.
