In three minutes more the sleeper was
a human palette. In ten minutes the
gobs of color on his person began to
take on form. His breast and arms
were converted into a jungle full of
writing serpents, pink tigers, green
monkeys and other weird zoology and
botany. He grunted when the cartoon
list turned him over to execute a mas
terly G. o. P. elephant on his back,
but seemed to be as happy as if he
were in a Turkish bath.
How to get rid of him was the next
question and it was quickly solved.
Somewhere in his perorations concern
ing himself the stranger had mentioned
a domestic establishment in which he
was king. The artists fell upon him
and smote him hip and thigh, rails

before he had unglued his eyes were
getting him into his clothes and tell
ing him his wife had sent a messen-
ger after him. They led him to the
street, turned him around a few times
and then escorted him to the corner.
They saw him board a car and then
went back to the studio to ruminate
on how wife would like her decorat-
ed monarch. They never found out

full of evening papers. These he grave
ly distributed among the patrons and
then sat down without a word and
resumed his meal. A few minutes
later, he dashed outside again, bought
out another newsboy and again hand

courtesy at each table.
What happened any New Yorker can

Reflected in the mirrors the group of

"O'Trigger' must be rescued or he
would be torn apart. The bright idea
came instantly. "O'Trigger" must be

but the apparition did not return.
In the morning he told his wife what
had happened, and she, being a sensi-
Bile woman, did not scott at the story,
but at the same time agreed that it
was better under the circumstances to
stop in the old monastery until they
could find less uncanny refuge. A
night or two after this event. since
nothing had occurred remarkable, the
excitement had cooled down. The hus-
Dand came home as usual and imme-
dlately after supper retired to bed and
was soon in deep slumber. The wife
continued to work until an advanced
hour of the night. She had lust
thought of quitting her work when she
felt a tremendous jar like an earth
quake shock. Not being given to at
tacks of nervousness she continued her
work, quietly, when there came a sec
ond shock that had great force. This

The same week it became necessary
to engage a servant. The want was
supplied. and the husband and wife
agreed that it was better not to say
anything about spooks to the servant.
The days that followed passed without
anything worthy of mention happening.
After two nights had passed, the serv-
ant. who slept on a mat in accordance
with Southern Mexican customs, awoke
from her sleep crying out, Ghosts,
ghosts" and declared she could no
longer sleep in the house. She went
away next morning declaring that she
could not abide with spooks.
The report of what had happened
reached the inhabitants of San Cristo-
bal, who Immediately thought of
buried treasure. They offered the
English lady a residence in the town
while they with the husband made an
investigation. Whether or not the
courage oozed out of her fingers, ends
1t cannot be said but no investigation
took place.

Before the Venus had finished shat
