Harvey Johnson, principal clown with
the Hagenbeck-Wa lace circus, which
comes to Bemidji Friday, August 1s,
for two, performances. For fifteen
years Johnson; was a past master of
the blue prints in his Chicago office.
He was very successful and he drew
the plans and superintended the con-
struction of many buildings. One
day circus came,sto Chicago, and.
like hundreds of others, he thought
he would have to 60 and carry the
children. He watched the clowns
and underneath their, makeup he
saw the seriousness with which they
worked. It impressed him. He then
studied the art and secured a job.
His work was successful from the
start. It is a very difficult act that

CHAPTER x-Continued.

The evening was passed in solitude.
Jane was reading something OF Ga
boriau's. an impelling. but not exactly
a soothing subject for one who expect
ed to spend the night alone. She was
startled from an absorbing part of the
tale by that mysterious feeling that
warns us of another presence when
neither eye nor ear has served. Then
q slight shadow flickered across the
book. She dropped it and started to
her feet with little cry. Dick. inert
and dreaming, leaped up and growled
out Of mere sympathy, or suspicion.
Caught unawares he would take no
chances; but having quickly estab-
lished his outposts and surveyed the
field Of battle his belligerency van
ished. He stood with one paw raised
quizzically examining his mistress
face and looking from her to the inter-
loper.
That was Frieda. She was twisting
. corner of her blue Bingham apron be-
tween her coarse hands, struggling be-
tween her fear of intruding and her
desire to put thought into speech.

pieces OF broken glass and wiped the
unpublished bar. You are nervous,
what? Did you see a ghost?"
Ghost be damned" his customer an

Dick carried the glass to a little
table in a corner of the room. There
was no other patron in the place and
the convivial old German who had
found a most congenial spirit In his
caller, followed and took chair. He
was loath to break the chain of their
idle chatter. Dick let him ramble on
with only a curt nod now and then as
a sign that he heard. Shortly before
he would have replied in kind, revel-
ing in the chance to disburse his doc
trines, answering argument with argu-
ment Now Cnis loquaciousness had
