Really Lydia was •saying some awful things. St is ,the first time Lydia, that you have been unkind to me," she said, a little unsteadily, "You are trydng to frighten mei' ' Pelihraps Lydia did realise she had been diseouraging perhaps the sight od Mary's earliest young face moved her to ooanpunction, for she moved over to Mery and put an affection- ate arm about ber shoulder, "'Where there!" she said. "You meed nottake me too seriously!'I Marytwisted round and faced ter. "I want to tell you this," she gait( 3tuskily, "IS Dick failed me I , think. it. would kill me! Dick is different, -Lydda."

Atet'er all, she had nothing:;more against hien than she diad' against any other man. "Tait of lions and tigers and bridegrooms and other dangerous objects l ,she safd, with a little - laugh. 'tI.' have been warning Mary about you," He was "all and lithe and well- ' dressed, ell-':dressed, with his head of curly Naval hair and his laughing -brown. eyes. Ta Mary he seemed' splendid —a rock with unshifting foundation for happiness. . He mesa laughing, giving Lydia a bow of exaggerated gallantry, ',Many thanks, .gracious lady, for having the interests of my belove so much at heart," he said. "But lest you have unduly alarmed her I will lake her away at once and re- peat my vows to her under the rise iug moon. A chariot, carrying the mystic sign, L,(.O,C,—abort for Lon- don General Omnibus Company—. presently will bear us off to Bushey Park, than weal; charm is no better place.'' Mary was ',aun,-bing by this time, but then *be Nee ea his arm?, her heart beat!ne and very close to Ws. * It was ar. beer later when a beau. tiful world seemed to maintain no- body but thar Ewe selves, that Mary was in his arms again, locked in an embrace which ezrely was bore of love eternal. Her eyes were looking np in10 his with the magi,: of tenderness, while Dick's eyee were dark and pgeslon• ate—the eyes o1 a lover, 'la,1jt3 (Ilan; scare yeti, sweet!" he breathed, "Not really!" Mary drew his bead a shade ]ow- er so Ellet eke could press ber cheek against his. "Of course :tot, you silly dear!" she said. Dick's lips touched hers tenderly. There are patches in 1!fe too tweet, too inexpressibly wonderful for a !lumen being to give them speech, * Mary felt slle sipped the ro- mance of love, but only to know the thrill of soul, That was when she was standing with Dick before the altar, he hold- ing her hand in his band, and be said after the minister— 'a, Richard William, take thee, Mary, to be my lawful wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for- better for worse, for richer for poorer. in sickness and in health, to love and to cheisb, till death us do part according to God's holy ordinance. And hitherto I plight thee my trcth.." The dear, sweet beauty of the words! It brought a passion of light into the eyes looking up into Dick's, and she gave him her vow: in return, "Till death do us pant " The sun was shining through the purple and the gold of the church windows, and presently there was the sound of music. d They 'were stending on the three- hold of a new and very beautiful world. And how splendid he look- ed for all his twee was white, for ne, too, was feeling the profundity of the solemnity of those vows. Wedded! Mary, with ell her sweet- ness and charm, his utterly! He drew in a deep breath, and a silent prayer wont up from the deeps of his heart to a distant Heaven. It was that 'he might always be good enough for her, He teal her Whoa it afterwards. The light in Mary's eyes was showing itself in a radlant emile of heart' content and happiness, Dick was hers as completely as she was his, according to God's ordinance, Lydia was In the vestry during the signing pf the register before bride and }]re eerrgom went down the aisle iptq xbe saFelline. It was while Dick was e1gning the registee that L vdis. took 114 young bride tato her arms, mules regard, less of the dainty frock she :tile wearing, and kissed her, "Heaven bleu you!" Lydia said, and her voice was husky. "I 'lave been praying all the while tbai. your dreams will come true." Mary laughed softly, and it was like a golden thread of happiness !u' that musty vestry, as she gave a quick returning bug. "You dear," sbe said, and her voice held that delicious soul thrill, "I think they've all come true al- ready!'' Then dowel elle aisle, her hand in the Crook of Dick's arm, while the Organ poured out its 'music, filling the Church wltr the triumphant strain of The Wedding Marcb, The sound of music, rolling and crashing and filling their hearts, too, as they took their first steps to- gether to their new life, and with the sun at their feet whew they reached the aped.

Mountains and dales and fakes and the ler ssed Music of Many Races Teileaele Canadian Mosaic, illustrated Ike+ with the music of the many races settled in 'Canada, will be the subject of a Series of ten broadcasts which will be produ`eed by J, Murray Gibbon, general pub- licity agent, Canadian Pacific Railway for the networic of the Canadian Broadcasting Corpora- tion on Sundays, commencing' January 2. Frances James, one of Canada's leadieg sopranos, will bo the soloist interpreting songs specially written on Canadian themes to tunes which have been brought to this country by the races in question--Frrench, Soots, English, Trish, Welsh, Scandina- vian, German, Ukrainian, PoIlsh, Czecho-Slovak, Finnish, etc. The Toronto Conservatory String Quartette under the leadership of Elle Spivak will contribute instru- mental music by the outstanding composers of the races in ques- tion. The idea of this series of broad- casts Is to create a better under- standing of the contribution made to Canadian culture by the vari- ous racial groups in, Canada, and may bo considered as an interest- ing sequence to the Irolk Song Festivals organized at vfu'luns Pointe in Canada some years aro by the company.

"And Lydia warned. you about me?" he said, suddenly remctnngt•- Ing the admission Lydia had made when he had called for Me.ey on that last evening before their wedding, Mary was happy enough to wan'. totease him spout it, so she nodded, "Lydia told he tbeer are two danger periods in marriage, the second year and the seventh A man begins to feel lumpy in the second year; come the seventh and he Is positively restless!" Dick laughed, and tucked Mary a little closer in his arm, "Ever noticed, sweet, what an awful lot the et:Inert-led font know about marriage " he murmured, "Metal' is the word because they simply don't knew anything actual- ly.

At, B ALMOST every motion pic- TL tura goer knows, the Hollywood !tudios are continually fooling us these days with scenes photo- graphed in miniature, such as a vil- lage street, a castle in Spain, a rural winter snow scene, a ship at sea, an airplane wreck and what net else. So cleverly are these miniature "sets" designed and photographed that In the'picture their lack of re- ality defies detection, and when we tre let in on the secret, we do not mind at all, Indeed we admire the achievement. Have you ever tried creating miniature scenes yourself and photographing them with your own camera? It's fun. Depending upon your skill, artistic ability and the materials you employ, you may construct and photograph miniature sets in your own bome that will rival the semblance of reality achieved In Hollywood; or, if you prefer, you may create scenes 01 fantasy, comedy or burlesque to compare with a "shot" in au animat- ed cartoon. For a "still" camera, this Is really nothing else than table -top photog- raphy, such as has long been prac- ticed by amateurs, but which new is photographically much easier for the amateur than it used to be, be- cause of the recent introduction for home use of more powerful artifleial lighting. At least for tabletop pho- tography you can very cheaply with two or three of these brighter home flood light bulbs rival the lighting equipment of Hollywood studios, and, what is more, do good work with an inexpensive fixed -focus cam- era, provided you use a portrait at- tachment to secure the necessary close-up focus. Woe Constructing one of these sets re- quires, of course, a certain amount of time and patience, with the ex- pense depending upon the matorleee you put into it. Very amusing scenes may be created, however, without introducing elaborate de- tails. Here are a few suggestions for the materials: White or light gray cardboard makes "sky"; a mirror makes a lake; twigs and small plants make trees and hedges; moss serves for grass; chalk, salt or flour for snow; toy automobiles, trains, boats, air- planes, houses, human and animal figures may be obtained at the five- and-dime store. If you are handy with tools, you can fashion various "props" yourself, using soft wood, or you can use plastic modeling materials. A few points relative to the pho- tography: Working at close range, the depth of held of the lens is not likely to be great, so, in building your set, keep the elements within as short a distance, from to back, as possible. You get the best effects by using the lens at a small opening. Better matte about three "shots" of a set- ting, varying the exposure time, to be sure of obtaining a perfect nega- tive, Focus exactly. You will have a lot of fun play- ing with the light. Sometimes a single strong flood light will give you what you want, Again, you may want one figure to stand out bril- liantly with everything else sub- dued. For this a large piece of card- board with a hole in it will provide a spotlight. Panchromatic film gives the best rendering, 130 JOHN VAN GUILDER. w Ot'11, 1087 FREE.".
