sg Haat , beauty and lovliness! A LIFE STORY. Written expressly for the Tres, We were children together, Lulu and I, and many were the childish troubles we shared together in those! golden days of youth. Eeighbors until we had grown to be what we thought was rather old. Then day came when we were oing to a having obtained a government | intment. There well between us. was a tearful I stood on the} good ship, «8 er and watched the g BB) it disappeared far out in the bay, | bearing my chum to her distant bk 7m: cu me. Time flew on, and I became! more and more wordly, to begin thinking of some way to make a living. te to suit my own fancy, and I chose that of wood I wrote to Lulu in her home in the far off land of dates and palms, that I was leav- ing home to go abroad to study my profession. I went, mastered the art, and years ago became famous. My work w piece that came from my hands found a ready sale ata good pric carving. I wrote Lulu of my success, and | at regular intervals, came the cheer- ing words of praise, in the white euvelope bearing the peculiar hanc- write of she whom I had known and loved from infancy. But one day those letters ceased andI never heard from her again. I wrote and wrote, but all to no avail. No answer came, until from my own land came the news of her father’s demise. I continued my travels over the world. Going, always go- ing. But thinking, always thinking of she whom I loved. And now realizing that that, love would bea useless burden. And I determined to throw it off forever. I finally drifted to Mexico. What a land I found there! Filled with romance, I was out one evening for a walk, when to my ear is heard: “Hello, Barrows,” saw a friend whom I had the past. “Hello, old man, you in this country?” “Just dropped from the clouds.’ “And do you stay long?” “Oh, as long as it does not grow tiresome.” “Well come, we will have a chance to pass the time not so wearily,” and my friend hurried me along the street. “Where are you going?” I asked. “Tothe cireus, and see Donna Carletta, the Queen of the Air.” “And who is she?” “The most daring trapeze artist you ever saw. Buiit is useless to try and describe her, you shall see for yourself.” And my newly found friend, and myself entered the great iron circus building of Orrin Brothers. As we entered the band struck upa piece that seemedfto contain every envi ronment of music. And as it ceased there tripped into the arena a beauti- ful vison. It was the peerless Donna Carletta. She was radiently beauti- ful! Have you ever seen a southern and turning I known in and low came beauty? Yes. Well, take the fair est you have ever seev, with her wealth of dark lusterous eyes, beautiful features, and perfect form. Add to these something as beuti-| ful as your imagination can picture, | and you will have a likeness of this beautiful trapeze performer Asasweet soft strain of music bore out upon the air ske ascended to the top of the tall building. And there with all the grace, that mortal could possess, she performed the most difficult feats I ever saw. And the sea of beings below her, held their breath in silent admiration. Finally, came the last feat. One hardly dared by human mind. It was to swing by one trapeze and, looseing her hold, to fly across the building and catch another bar sus- pended on the other side. And while | in this swift flight, completely turn | the body. She grasped the bar in her two white and shapely hands, and pausing for anu instant witha smile upon her beautiful features, | she launched herself into the air. Like a bird she glided along, grace- fully turned in mid-air reaching for | the other bar—missed it and fell! headlong to the cruel hard ground | beneath, and with a groan the audi- ence covered their faces.
