Wig. believe they have two chill
dren. She Ia "a daughter Of the inn
keeper at Ulstrup, and / chanced 10
bo there the evening Of tho wedding.
That was "a Jolly night"
Karen dropped the spoons and went
out Of the room. They called her
from tho guest hall, but she did not
hear. She went straight TO her room
and locked the door. Half conscious,
she stood motionless In the dark
Then she caught at her head, she
caught at her breast, gasping for
breath she could not understand
no. sho could not understand.
But when she heard the keepers
wife calling pitifully, Karen oh,
little Karenl" then she was aroused
She ran across the farmyard, behind
tho barn and out--out into the
heather.
In the dim light n strip Of grass
wound its way through the heather
as il il were some neglected road,
but it was not u road, for it only led
TO tho edge of the deep peat hole.
The rabbit jumped up-it had
heard u splash. 1t dashed away by
long leaps as if it had gone mad, now
with legs drawn up and the back
now stretched to an incred-
ible length-like piece Of india rub
ber--it leaped on over the heather.
The fox raised his pointed nose and
stared ut the rabbit IN astonishment.
He had not heard any splash. In
accordance with the most approved
he had como listlessly along
the bottom of deep ditch, and as
he was not conscious of any mistake,
he was unable to account for this
move Of the rabbit.
For some time he stood in this po-
sition, with his head raised the hind
part of his body and the large bushy
tail hidden in the heather--and he
began ~ question If perhaps it were
the rabbits who were becoming wiser
and the foxes more stupid every day.
But when the west wind had run
some distance it became Il north
wind later an east wind, then
south wind, and at last ii came again
over tho sea rs west wind, ran in
between the snnd dunes ON the coast
and sighed and moaned strangely In
the heather, But twogray eyes were
IN Krarupinn. And the inn.
keepers wife whimpered more than
ever, she could not understand; no.
body could understand except An.
dels, the driver, and one besides.
But when the obi people wanted to
admonish the young seriously it was
their custom to begin thus, There
was once o girl IN krarup inn of tho
name OF Karen. ~ Translated from
the Danish of 1'hyge Sogaa for
