If concerns me “Why should it?"

Then a latch clicked softly, the hinges of a shutter whined, and the startled young woman found herself staring up into the face of Mrs. Gosnold, not two feet above ly's head, S-a-eeht mysteriously, “There's no one here," sured her in to: guarded. “You've Mrs. Gosnold nodded with a mis chievous twinkle, “I have that!” “Please, may I come in and tell you something?” “Not now.

The tireless ingenuity with which that rampant spinster de- vised ways and means of render. ing herself a pest had long since won the ungrudged admiration of Sally, who elected to be amused more than annoyed by the imperti- nences, the fawning adulation and the corrosive jealousy of Mrs, Gos- nold's licensed pick-thank. And when she had first divined the womaa beneath the disguise of the witch Sally had wondered what new method of making a sprightly nuisance of herself Miss Pride had invented to go with her !mpersona tion. It proved to be compulsory for- tune telling with the aid of cards and a “den” rigged up in a corner of a hedge. Within this latr, the sorceress squatted and practiced her unholy art upon all comers. And when trade slackened (as inevitably it did when “the young people” for whose musement” this mum- mery ostensibly was staged assert- ed their ennul by avoiding the neighborhood) Ecstatica, nothing daunted, would rise up and fo forth and etalk her prey among the more mature, dragging them off forcibly by the hand, when needs must, to sit at her table and humor her nonsense. Thus she inveigled Sally when |the latter unwarily wandered her way. Miss Pride knew her victim per- fectly, but for the sake of appear- ances, kept up mystification. “Sit you there, my pretty,” she gabied vivactorely, two hands on Sally's shoulders, urging her to rest on one of the stools. “Don't be afreld of my simple magic. Just show me your rosy palm, and I will tell you your fortune. ‘Ah, yes, yes!” she grunted, “you have an amiable and affec- tionate disposition; you love pret ty things to wear and every sort of pleasure. There is your gravest fault and greatest danger—pretty; love of clothes and pleasure and forgive the wise old woman's plain 8 king—false ambitions, see danger in your path,” she resumed in accents of awe; “the shadow of something evil—and a window barred with iron. I can- not say what this means, but you should know. Look into your heart, my pretty; think. If per- haps you have done something you should not have done, and if you would suffer shame for it, you must make all haste to undo that which you have done—" “Miss Pride!"
