Guests at the Omdorff hotel are holding a continual reception for Mr. and Mrs. Al- bert Penn, a newly married couple.

The influence of the old home was equally strong upon her, and she responded by calling him "ton." After three weeks of constant attention, which was looked upon as being an evidence of more Interest in one another, the guests at the hotel were surprised to learn that Mr. and Mrs. Penn were to be married.
