the ■iawn. Mr. Parcher beheld from

Parcher inquired.
"Miss Pratt!" gasped William "Miss
Pratt!"
"Well, what about her?"
And upon receiving William's reply
Mr. Parcher might well buve discerned
behind It the invisible baud of aD
Ironic but recouipensluc Providence
making things even—taking from the
one to give to the o.hcr.
"She's eolng to stay!" .shouted the
hanpv William "She's promised to
star another week!"
And then, mingling with the sounds
of rejoicing, there ascended to heaven
the stricken cry of aD elderly uian
plunging blindly Into the house In
search of his wife.
»••••••
Jane one sunshiny morning stood
outdoors watching interestedly the un
loading of moving vans Into a house
across the way. Her mouth wub equal
ly affected, remaining open at a visible
crisis In the perforicHuce of Its duty
consuming bread and tipple sauce.
These were the tokens of her agita
tion upon beholding the removal of a
dolls' house from one of the wagons.
This dolls' house was at least five feet
high, of proportionate breadth and
depth, the cuciomary absence of a
facade disclosing an Interior of four
luxurious floors, with stairways, fire
places and wall paper. Here was a
mansion wherein doll duchesses, no
less, must dwell.
Straightway * little girl ran out of
the open doorway of the brick house
and. with a self Importance concen
trated to the point of shrewishness,
, began to give orders concerning the
disposal of her perscnal property,
which Included, as she made clear, not
| only the dolla' mansion, but also three
dolls' trunks and a packing case of
fair size.
| She'was a thin little girl, perhaps
' half a year younger than Jane, and
1 she wag as soiled, particularly in re
spect to hands, brow, chin and the
knees of white stocklugs, as could be
expected of any busybodyish person of
nine or ten whose mother is house
moving.
The little girl across the street was
of course Instantly aware of Jane,
though she pretended not to be, and
from the flrat her self importance was
in large part assumed for the benefit
of the observer. After a momentary
silence, due to her failure to thfnk of
any proper response to workmen who
bad pointedly criticised her, she re
sumed the peremptory direction of her
Then, apparently in the very toidst
of her cores, she suddenly and without
warning ceased to boss, walked out
Into the street, halted and stared frank
ly at Jane.
CHAPTER XX.
"Don't Forgot."
JANE came out to tho sidewalk
and began to kick one of the
fence pickets.
"You see that ole fatty?" ask
ed the little girl, pointing to one of the
workmen thus sufficiently Identified.
"Yes."
"That's the one broke the goldfish,"
said the little girl. There was a pause,
during which she continued to scuff
the curbstone with her shoe, Jane like
wise scuffing the fence picket. "I'm
goln' to have papa get him arrested,"
added the stranger.
"My papa got two men arrested
once," Jane said calmly, "two or three."
Tho little girl's eyes, wandering up
ward, took note of Jane's papa's house
and of a tierce young gentleman framed
in an open window upstairs. lie was
seated, wore Ink upon his forelftad and
tapped his teeth with a red penholder.
"Who Is that?" she asked.
"It's Willie."
"Is it your papa?"
"No-o-o-o!" Jano exclaimed. "It'a
Willie!"
"Oh!" said the little girl, apparently
satisfied.
Each now sciilTcd less energetically
with her shoe; feet slowed down, so
did conversation, and for a time Jane
and the stranger wrapped themselves
In stillness, though there may have
been some silent communing between
them. Then the new neighbor placed
her feet far apart and leaned backward
upon nothing, curving her frout up
ward and her remarkably flexible spine
Inward until a profile view of her was
grandly semicircular.
June, vyati'hi-;! her attentively, but
without comment. However, 'rfO* one
could Unve doubted that the processes
of acquaintance were progressing fa
vorably.
"Let's go In our yard," said Jane.
The little girl straightened herself
with u slight gasp and accepted the
invitation. Side by side the two pass
ed through the open gate, walked
gravely forth upon the lawn and halt
ed as by comiiiuii consent. Jane there
upon placed her feet wide apart and
leaned backward upon nothing, at
tempting (lie feat in contortion Just
performed by the stranger.
"Look!" she said. "Look at me!" ,
But she lacked the other's genius, .
lost her balance and fell. Born per- '
Blstent, she Immediately got to her feet
and made fresh efforts.
"No! Look at me!" the little girl
cried, becoming semicircular again.
"This is the way: 1 call It 'puttln' your
gtunimlck out o' joint.' You haven't
got yours out far enough."
"Yes, I have," said Jane, gasping.
"Well, to do it right, you must walk ]
that way. As soon as you get your
stummick out o' joint you must begin
an' walk. Look! Like this!" And
the little fcirl having achieved a state
of such convexity that her braided hair
almost touched the ground behind her,
walked successfully In that singular
ultilude.
"I'm wulkln'," June protested, her
face.not quite upside clown. "Look!
I'm walkln' that vvuy too. My 6tum

There cniv.e an ouiraged sliout from
above, and a ficr.-e countenance stain

"Jane!"
"What?"
"Stop that! Stop putting your stom
ach out in front of you like that! It's
disgraceful!''

pressed, i\ sunicd t!i<j perpendicular.
