A TEA PARTY

Chapter 59 Adam Arnold was only too glad of a chance to show off his great wealth. So the tea party which was to be a house warming for the new home, came off a few days after his talk with Amy. Delighted to he able to give the

girl more presents, he sent her the j

lovely gold and brown tissue she had admired, and from it. Amy made herself an extraordinary costume, designed from one of the ballets in the , opera company. It was a drapy affair i whose glowing color brought out all ' the glints in her auburn hair and all the deep brown in her eyes. It was much too old and rich for j her, but Amy had a way of slipping ; into the character the costume re ' quired. Her mother had seen her let down her hair and dance with abandon

, as a bacchante in a few fying wisps of chiffon, and had sen her veil herself I f.nd her gleaming hair under a long i veil, and with drooping eyelids and i softly relaxed mouth assume a nunlike simplicity. So now, in the elaborate costume for this afternoon reception. Amy became suddenly a dignified 'young wo- ; man with great charm of manner, I quite capable of playing hostess to a ' large assembly of guests. "You must invite everyone you , know, the more the merrier," Adam had said. So Amy brought everyone : fhe knew including Dick, who stood nnd looked at her all afternoon and drank nine cups of tea because it gave : him an excuse for being near her and

taking the cup from her hand. Mrs. Talbot was there, of course, in the black silk that Amy had given her from her own earnings. She felt very grand and very stiff in the ?ev dress, and not particularly at home on the huge couch where she ' was put the seat of honor. "I can't get over Amy, she takes " to this like " "A duck to water," Jane finished for her. "She has succeeded in filling Adam's house for him, hasn't she? look, there's Claire, and Jim Clarice

'lagging behind as usual, and Ted and j Mark, brought here to see Amy in her I

new magnificence. Donald said he i would drop in later.""Jane, have you decided yet?" I "Oil mother, don't mix serious mat-! ters with frivolity:" Jane feigned im-! patience to avoid answering the direct: question. "We can't talk about do-j inrstie things when you have to say, iiow-do-you-do to new people every j thre minutes. Resides, who can be! serious in this pink and gold room?i Tsn't it awful: Oh. here's Donald." j Her eyes alieht with fun, she turned to the young doctor. j "Don, we're being gay and frivol-' otia this afternoon. Isn't the pink j in this drawing room just the color of icing on a cake? In fact, I feel j an though I were baked inside an , ; elaborate birthday cake with pink' . icing and candles and candy bits stuck!

nil over the crust. There goes Adamj

. vitn anotner party come along, he seems to be taking personally conducted expeditions all over the house."

Laughingly, cheeks flushed, Jane

; dragged Donald and her mother along. Adam, indeed, was taking parties of .guests over the place, explaining that

".'his room was Chipendale style, the!

I next Sheraton, the one following Mollis Quatorze. and one beyond. Itali-

seemed.

i to. show you," she said. "Adam isn't

showing it to the other guests," She led the way, strangely at home how did she know the way? Had she been here before; the mother wondered? to a suite of bedroom, bath and boudoir, obviously fitted up for a woman and in Amy's favorite combination of gray, blue and rose pink. "Fearfully ornate," Jane said, looking contemptuously at the frills of chiffon and real lace .on couch covers and candelabra.

j denominations had been sold out Fri

day evening, it was stated. An additional supply had been ordered. "One of the $1,000 certificates was purchased by a worker," said Postmaster Beck, replying to a question as to what class of people was buying the new security. "This man not only bought his certificate, but he told me that he had several hundred dollars in War Savings Stamps coming due soon, and if the government issues remain

ed attractive, he intended to put the proceeds from them back in the new

issues."

Total of Sales Sales of the certificates show that 15 one thousand dollar denominations had been sold up to Friday night, 40 in $100 denominations, and 16 in $25 denominations. These certificates represent in actual cash paid in, the face

value of the certificates, less 20 per

cent in interest .which will be paid

the owners of the certificates. In other words, their purchase price was approximately $15,520.

"The biggest sales come in $100 denominations," said Postmaster Beck. "Two men each bought 10 $100 certificates. One man bought 35 $100 certificates, and added to his purchase, foflr $25 ones. "Safety is a feature that seems to appeal very strongly to the people in this transaction. These certificates are all registered twice. When they are sold to the customer, a stub is kept in this office as a record. Another stub, and exact copy, is

The absolute security of the investment and the non-taxable feature appealed most strongly to the average investor, Mr. Beck said.

Everyday Ad-Ventures

After you've gotten a new job that's perfect in every respect except one, and that one is the starting time of eight o'clock which cuts one precious hour off the regular allotment And during tho past couple months you've been late a dozen times and have spent numerous other mornings in the well known "Awake and Doze" fashion And you realize more and more every day thut a good alarm clock is a necessity instead of a luxury but you've been putting off the important purchase because you don't know where to get the best clocks for your money, and Furthermore you can't "see" a five dollar "ante" even though it will give you a chance to be "called" every morning Until one day in scanning the "Jewelry and Watches" column in The Palladium's classified section you read about a reduced sale of guaranteed alarm clocks, and That Changes Everything!
