A Puff Of Wind
A Story

1t had been an unfortunate session
for Miss Peek, the principal and
proprietrix of the seminary for young
ladies at No. 80 Blankview Terrace.
About q year previously, i'll the fond
expectation of receiving a large num-
Der of advanced pupils, Miss Peek had
engaged several extra assistants cap
able of teaching advanced subjects at
advanced salaries; but at the begin
ming of the session, in spite of diligent
advertising and delivering of pink
covered prospectuses. her anticipations
had been but meagerly realized.
Now, at the close of the last term
she had leisure to brood over the de-
plorable fact that she had paid more
to her assistants than she had re-
ceived from her pupils. and to wonder
whether she could venture to carry
on her establishment for another
year. No one had amy idea that she
was in difficulties, for she had man
Jagged to scrape enough sovereigns to-
gether To settle With her assistants
land to entertain the parents and
friends of her pupils on the prize
giving day in such a fashion as to
convince them that the school was
i'm Il most ilourishing condition; and,
while the parents and friends and the
scholars gobbled up the
ices and teas and buns provided for
them in the music room, they little
dreamed of the months of starvation
which those dainties had cost Miss
Peek, who at the moment was rush
ing about smiling and talking To
everybody in the brightest manner
Even the housekeeper
Was ignorant of the true state of
affairs; for Miss Peek early in the
session had led her to believe that
the wretched diet she INDUCED in WAS
