Mrs. Schweitzer from her seat and carried
her in a hurry, in spite Of her lameness,
TO the cabinet. The something appeared
at first to be a white triangle; 1t resolved
in evening dress. Mrs. Schweitzer ap-

She had hardly taken her seat when q
little, low ghost appeared out OF the floor.
Star Eyes chuckled terribly from within
the cabinet.

over again.
sHer daughter that passed out when she
was, a little girl said the voice Of Mrs.
Conklin. sShe appears as she was when
she passed out, but in a minute she'll grow
up to the way she is now. They, grow In
the SPERM world. Just then, Juta shot
up to be a tall girl. and her voice changed
"Oh," said Mrs. Norton under her voice,
Il wish they could get my husband to-
