She felt in awe of Jason. SO diff

the horse was FURNISHED bronze. 1t was

impatient daintiness.
They whirled off down the dusty road.
She looked straight ahead and tried to

Daisy was too happy to talk. She had
never been so happy in her life. She
was in a dream of joy and wonder.
Presently they began to pass other
teams and there was a great deal of dust
and shouting. They stopped under
tree and ate the lunch to the last crumb.
Then they went on. They got into the
town half hour before the perform
ance began.
The town was fun of strangers. Jason
left his horse at the public sheds and to-
gether they walked through the streets
to the circus grounds Daisy hung to
Jason's arm. So many people and so
much stir frightened her. But she felt
that he could take care OF her.
1t was very bewilderinG and exciting.
They just glanced round at the animals.
then followed the surge into the big tent.
Daisy caught her breath. Everywhere
she locked she saw people. She had
never seen so many people together III

noise too She could scarcely hear ia

Seats seem to be pretty well taken"
he said. But well manage TO crowd IN
somewhere.
They were moving slowly in crowd
of people, all place hunting like them
selves, apparently. Suddenly Daisy felt
herself pushed little. She dropped
Jason's arm. Somebody had come be-

crowded to one side. And there was
