Among the latter we select as our first example sigma, in which we find a combination of color that is at once very unusual and very striking green and blue. The magnitudes are five and seven, distance 3", p. 324°. Another beautiful colored double is eta, whose magnitudes are four and seven and a half, distance 5", p. 200°, colors white and purple.

Poor, unfortunate creature! he had not the eyes of an Argus, or he might have seen his Juno and Elfonzo, assisted by his friend Sigma, make their escape from the window, and, with the rapidity of a race-horse, hurry through the blast of the storm to the residence of her father, without being recognized.

The model alphabet brought to Etruria must notwithstanding its comparatively remodelled character reach back to an epoch very ancient, though not positively to be determined; for, as the two sibilants sigma and san were always used by the Etruscans as different sounds side by side, the Greek alphabet which came to Etruria must doubtless still have possessed both of them in this way as living signs of sound; but among all the monuments of the Greek language known to us not one presents sigma and san in simultaneous use.

It must, therefore, be exceedingly erratic in its changes, resembling rather the temporary stars than the true variables. In that part of Scutum Sobieskii contained in map No. 12 we find an interesting double, Sigma 2325, whose magnitudes are six and nine, distance 12.3", p. 260°, colors white and orange.

Anne seeing that Marian showed signs of wavering, crossed over to her side, and slipping her arm around the obstinate girl, said gently: "Better think it over before you do any thing rash, dear. We are not trying in the least to interfere in your affairs. You know the primary object of the Phi Sigma Tau is to help one another. We thought that you would be glad to have us coach you in astronomy.

Sigma 2742 is wider double, magnitudes both six, distance 2.6", p. 225°. Another triple, one of whose components is beyond our reach, is gamma.

The younger members of both Sigma Beta and Alpha Kappa counseled early and enthusiastic "rushing" of the new prize, but the Juniors and Seniors, wise in their day and generation, brought out a number of damning facts which would need to be taken into consideration if Sylvia wore their pin.

Ignoring Eleanor's final remark, Miss Thompson once more turned her attention to the matter in hand. "Those girls who are not in any way implicated in this matter are dismissed," she said. About one third of the girls arose and prepared to leave the study hall, the Phi Sigma Tau being among the number. Grace motioned the girls to hurry.

"You see, I have had you right with me," smiled Anne, who was seated at a dressing table taking off her make-up with cold cream. She pointed to a photograph that the Phi Sigma Tau had had taken the previous summer. "Only one face missing to-night," said Grace in low tones as she drew her chair close to Anne's. "Have you found out anything else?" asked Anne in the same guarded tones.

Then the five boys would repair to the hotel where the girls were to stop, accompanied by Mrs. Gibson and James Gardiner, who was again invited to make the number even. Intense excitement prevailed in school when it was learned that the Phi Sigma Tau were to go to New York to see Anne as "Rosalind," and the five girls were carried upon the top wave of popularity.
