We'll. as l was saying, it was ten
years ago last summer, and we were
on the road, at place called Fayettes-

took the child to sofa and put her
down. She was in heavy sleep. n
drugged sleep, it was easy to see; but
that was nothing new, when they
wanted to get the apprentices away
from home without any fuss. They
always slept it off, sooner or later, and
we had the fuss, until Tingman thrash
ed or threatened the poor children
quiet.
When l had the room tidicd went
over to look at the child, to see if she
was waking. One good, long look set
me to wondering. Where on earth had
Tingman apprenticed that child? If
there WINS ever lady born, she was
one, with face of n little angel, long
golden curls, skin like lily, and the
least mites of hands and feet you ever
saw. She was very small; looked about
seven or eight years old, though as
knew afterward, she was past twelve.
While was looking ut her, she woke
up, and i was sure then, if I had not
been before, that she had been stolen.
Mamma" she cried, where are

Tingman must have been listening,
for he came in before / had time to
speak, and the child shrank and shiv-

"See here" he said, holding up a
great whip, "the first time you say
mamma or home again I'll whip you
with this; and if you ever tell anybody
where your home is I'll Kill you! I'm
your father now, and this is your
mother. and Tingman's circus is your
homel Do you understand?"
She gave one little, bitter cry Of ter
ror and tainted. Tingman looked rather
scared himself, but walked off
whistling. Screaming, crying children
we had had in plenty, but 1 never saw
one faint from terror alone before.
Well. ma'am, the training began the
next day, and Tingman found he'd got
to drop some of his old fashions or kill
