 Into this atmosphere of tanned inert ness, suddenly flashed 8 little hgure whose quivering vitality eommuni- cated electric thrills. Even the clowns moved less like treadmill horses, as they took their stations at the smaller cages. waiting to lift the gates that would admit the restless lions into the central cage.
 The form that had appeared--one knew not whence-was that of slight woman. dressed in a short skirt of blue, and bodice of white satin. The trimmings which ran in all directions. were rich in pendants of gold and rubies. Above all, there was the al- turing mystery of a crimson mask which effectually hid the woman's face.
 Simon whispered into Abhott's all ways unready ear: That isn't La Confetti. Wonder what this means? La Confetti is much more of wom- an than this one, and she doesn't wear a mask. or much of anything else La Confetti doesn't care who sees her. Why, this is nothing but mere-I tell you now, if she ain't on to her job, mean to have my money back" Si- mon glowered.
 Abbott stared in great perplexity. "Then who is she?" he exclaimed. "Si- mon--doesn't she remind you of-of some one we know?" Nav. She's got on La Gonizetti's dress, and her voice has the show girls clangy-tin-panny- whangdoodle, but that's all recognize"
 Abbott wondered that Simon failed to notice the similarity between the show-girls movements and those of Fran. This woman had Fran's form. To be sure the voice was entirely diff ferent, but the rapidity and decisive ness of action. and the air of authority, were Fran's very own. However, the show-girls hands were ss dark as an Italians, while Trans werewolf, not so dark, at any rate.

 The show-girl was fastened in the central cage. The clowns raised the inner doors, and the lions shot from their cramped quarters swift as tawny arrows. They were almost against the slight figure, without seeming to observe her For the fourth time since noon they stood erect, snifiing the air, their bodies unconfined by galling tim bers and chilling iron. For the fourth time this day, they were to be put through their tricks by force of fear. They hated these tricks, as they hated the small cages in which they could not lash their tails. They hated the 1baby carriage" in which one was presently to sit, while the. other pushed him over the floor, his sullen majesty sport for the rabble. They hated the board upon which they must see-saw. while the woman stood in the middle, preserving equilibrium.
 But greater than the lions hatred was their fear of the woman; and greater than their fear of her was their terror of that long serpent which, no matter how far it might dart through space. remained always in the woman's hand. They well knew it's venomous bite. and as they slunk from side to side. their eyes were upon it's coiling black tongue.
