What is it," he whispered, but Solon did not
look down, and did not speak He came close to
the piano and leaned against it. He had to lower
his head, the canvas top was low.
Then suddenly the storm took second breath
and burst only less furiously than before and Solon
P. galloway reached his long arm far over the
piano and with his keen penknfe slit the canvas
tent top in a long, gaping six-foot slit
With a splash like overturned washtub ten
tons OF accumulated water rushed into the upright
piano and squired into Tom Gartcnhirc's face from
between the keys. Two, possibly three, tons
deluged Solon p. galloway, but he did not mind
He Strengthened himself and turned toward the
audience with calm, proud smile For the first
time in his life he had done somethingl He had
but time to catch glimpse of Eta Wirtz's horror
stricken face, and the black anger of Kilkenny
and the blank amazement of Mr.. Fggis, when the
lights went out, there loud ripping noise
that was like wall, and the tent top lifted and
was dashed away slapping and tearing, while the
stage spntered' and the centre-poe fell. Mad
with fear, the audience fought its way into the
midway, pushing, yelling screaming, but Solon P.
falloway walked slowly through the pouring rain,
his head high and his pulse beating triumphanty.
He was hero!

Il want you to be where you are needed, Solon :"
said Eta Wirtz. IF you are needed outsde-go!
i-you-you can come back for me when the danger
is over"
Perhaps she was disappointed in Solon. Perhaps
she had bigger, braver heart in her trembling
bosom than he possessed Certainly no woman
wants her man to be less than hero in time
when there is hero's work to do. She looked up
at him wistfuy. Solon stared straight before him
III you needed. Solon-" she whispered
almost appealingy. "I-I'm sure there is work for
you to do. | don't want Toto"
What she wished to say was that she did not
wish to stand in his way, that the time for
cool-headed heroism had arrived Now was the
time for men to do, and not to stand STILL feeling
the pressure Of girls soft hand on his arm
Solon drew deep breath. Gently he took Etta's
hand from his arm. Then quietly, and with almost
kingy stateness he moved from her side
The wind fell with the suddenness it had come
and Kilkenny followed Mr.. Fliggs across the open
space and into the Blue Birds tent They stood
JUST behind little Eta Wrtz and looked at the
tent top.

But already Mr.. Flggis was running through the
big, vacant tent toward the horse tent When he
stepped outside he stopped aghast. The horse tent
was already down, or almost down. He lifted the
Hap and looked in. One of the centre-poles had
fallen across the back of Judy the largest elephant
and she alone was supporting the tent, supporting
It with her eyes half closed while she chewed her

The lights were still burning in the Blue Birds
tent and Mr.: Fliggs walked across the open space
and looked in. On the stage the four Blue Birds
were giving their twentieth performance of that
evening, and the benches were filled with specta-
tors, and very inch of standing room was filled
with spectators. Near the entrance, as Mr. Fliggis
entered, stood Solon P. galloway, frown on his
