A good practical feeding rack may

inches apart and one inch in diameter
The rounds. which should be made
about three to three and one-half feet

The horizontal poles should be

ing In an ugly manner. They say that
lions can detect the character Of their

too. that . good woman can tame the

Mademoiselle Charmeuse had been
born Lily Leigh. Her parents were
honest farmer folks way back in

a maternal grandfather who ran away
to sea. It is not boys only that in

she was seventeen Lily had shaken

meuse, the renowned lion-tamer.
Some folks think circus people are

and respectable people alive. Nobody
had ever breathed word against
Mademoiselle Charmeuse's reputation.
Goldini, the proprietor. and the moth

Charmeuse was thrown much more

1t was her task, together with Nero,

himself seldom entered the lions cage
nowadays. He was growing fat, like

II big crop of strong lambs II to

here they should also have . mixture
Of whole oats, wheat bran and oil meal

extra feeding ('fiushing") Of ewes and
ram should commence two or three
weeks prior to TIE mating time and
continue through that period; then the
ewes should be well fed In winter.
Give them plenty Of exercise every
day. Prefer mixed clover or alfalfa
hay to any other. Keep the ewes from
eating much coarse, bulky slough hay
or timothy hay, or weathered corn fod-
der. Supply q succulent feed. such a.

to appear restless under his lash. Col
DIM knew what was the trouble. He
knew It in his own soul. He loved
Mademoiselle Charmeuse.
The girl, always responsive to the
kindness Of the couple, was staggered
at the unmistakable display of the
fact that Goldini's interest in her was
no longer paternal. Love had never
come into her life. How could It?
What had she in common with the
crowds Of gaping farmers boys who
stared at her in her short skirts and
spangles; or followed her with moon
calf protestations of devotion? She
was as much alone a. though she
dwelt on q desert island.
Goldini loeed her, and, in her pres
ence, the mans own crushed nature
fiourished. Ne had been destined for
better thinfs. He was q university
man; he hae-seen in the Italian army,
though NOD e knew this intimate Sc
cret Of hisspast. He had been q lieu
tenant and had fought in the i'll
starred Abyssinian expedition. where
he was cashiered for cowardice. The
sight Of the yelling tribesmen had
been too much for his nerves; he had
ridden away, leaving his men to face
humiliation. That was a dark and
bitter secret.
Yet he had never feared wild beasts.
In Abyssinia he had learned to handle
lions; lie had shot them at 20 PAGES
without tremor Of fear. It is easy
to be a lion-tamer. On his arrival in
America he had promptly stepped into
q position with no other applicants,
and graduated to a show of his own
by marrying the proprietress. A good
man. Goldini. a worthy citizen-but
he had never lived. since his arrival
in America, or loved. till now.
The girls innocence. her beauty, ap-
pealed to him strongly. A little, half
starved thing when he met her. q wild.
mountain girl with aspirations above
her station. he had taken her in part
in pity, part on account of business
sense of her value Now that he and
she were thrown SO much together. he
knew that he loved her.
And the girl loved him. She seized
this first love to her heart and lived
in it. No matter IL Goldini was near
ing forty. and she but twenty-three.
The consciousness of each others love
was in every word and gesture.
Only they and the lions knew, and
Goldini, noticed to his dismay that
his presence irritated them. He knew
the reason. So he left the lion-taming
to his pretty assistant, whom the.great
beasts seemed to love-and to Nero.
whom they feared.
Only the night before, when the
good motherly woman had gone into
her tent, Goldini had told the girl of
his love. She had not shrunk away
from him. Her mind was practical
enough. She was thinking over his
proposal. Let them leave the circus
to Madame Goldini and go away to-
gether. with his savings. to begin life
anew.
