He afraid af hob goblins and boogic man in the dark corners. The other less retognized. but _just as poignant, kind of night fear is the grown-ups unreasoning fear of the future, or to call it by its commoner name, his worrying. The grown-up may no longer see habgoblins in the corners when he wakes up in the night, but he sees all sorts of hobgoblin difficulties and boogie men dangers in his path of life. Tt is really uncanny how convert the most _distant into a gloomy probability, | hill difficulty into a mountain trouble. A T Knew T Was Going To Be Sick. The other night I waked up some- where in the wee small hours with a pain in my shoulder. In the day- time I should have thaught nothing of it. As it was, I felt quite con- vinced that my old and dreaded enemy, neuritis was about to make an attack upon me and I fairly cringed before that hobgoblin. I rehearsed all the horrors. of the one attack that has given me my fear of it. Then the fact that T had two engagements for the morrow popped into my mind.

(I am one of those fool people—who let what I think other people think of me make me uncomfortable even when I am justi- fied in my own mind.) And then by-and-by T woke up with start of surprise. T must have Tallen asleep and it is maorning and the sun is ining. I test my shoulder gingerly, Why it isn't so bad after all. Half an hour later am purring over my cup of coffee and planning a new engagement on top of the other two. Things Look Utterly Different. My whole life has taken on entirely different complexion.

J. Lynch tonight turns the reins-of of- fice gver to vounger hands The events will mark the close of an epoch in New Britain's theatrical his- tory that will bring memories to many old timers. The play which will be seen tonight, “Diplomacy,”” is the same play that was first on the board of the Lyceum twenty-five vears ago. It has been revived by the Walter | Naylor players in appropriate fashion. 1t is expected that one of the great- | est crowds that ever packed a the- ater in this city will be present flt the Lyceum tonight when the curtain goes up on this old play. The “Fare- well Night” for “Tom” Lynch is ex- pected to bring to the showhouse a galaxy of old time theatergoers who have sat under the roof of the Lyceum and watched some of the greatest stars of the past generation. Twenty-five years in the life of a theater is alw filled with many fond recollections. To sce a play re- vived after that length of time is in- teresting in the extreme.

The revival by the Nay- lor players at the Lyceum is consid- ered one of the finest bits of dramatic endeavor ever staged here. Mr. Nay lor has made every effort to bring the theatrical career of Mr. | glorious close. That he has done so | is attested by all who have seen the | play this week.

His tone was anxious, but there was la note of constraint in it which I understood even through the | | turning anguish at Dicky's terrible | | news which was possessing me with { returning consciousness.

His fzce was flushed when he put me down and he was breathing hard, for while I am slender, I am not tiny in any sense of the world, and Dicky has not the physique which would make Harry Underwood, for instance, consider my weight the merest trifle. But there was a look of something very akin to triumph in his eyes as they met mine, Then he turned to Katie, ; “You may go downstairs, Katie, he said. “I see you have spread out: Mrs. Graham's night things, and T do not think she will need you again.
