MIzzI HAJos, THE SPRING MAID"

But the Spring Maid fingers in my
 memory-forever."
 .Wa-wo," sighed Miss Mizzi, which again isn't Hungarian but Hajos for "It makes me tired" and then I said:
 Do you get many of them?'
 Every where-oh so many. Desc mems Mon Dieu. They are wicked, I do not care to meet them. I nevaire accept in- vitations when I am travelling. This man here wishes to make my acquaintance. BAIIr

They think that mans work I think it's lovely, and I shall tell them about it when l go back. You know, my contract for the five years I am in America says that four months out of each year I shall go back 10 my dear Hungaria' and sing for my people,
