l. tells the past present and fu-
ture! Have Tirzah read your
fortune in your hand. Come gallant

Peggy listened in fascinated in
terest to this chant repeated over
and over again by the tall. fierce
looking Gypsy who stood before the
entrance to the Gypsy village at the
county fair. 1t was very alluring.
No wonder so many giggling girls
and sheepish-faced young men were
tempted among the gay-colored
tents and gaudy vans to have their
palms read by the dark-eyed Gypsy
girls and women.
Peggy didn't believe in fortune
telling. And as she watched the
Gypsies reap their harvest of coins
from the fun-seeking crowd, she be-
came more and more convinced that
they were just clever takers. Still,
there was something enticingly mys-
tic about their camp and about the
Gypsies themselves. She would like
to study their strange life at close
range and investigate their claimed
power of looking into hte hidden
things of the future.

We now assert that the militarist

stra. THE government, instead of
rejoicing at what has occurred
abroad, rather gives the impression
of careful housewife afraid of
her own china cupboard.
The government will not be able
to rely upon the army, because the
army consists of workers who have
been treated by the wealthy
classes in such manner that the
army has become their worst enemy.

Peggy never waited to think.

But Peggy, resting in her uncle's
automobile while the others in her
party looked at the machinery dis
play, dare not venture across the
road into the realm of the Gypsies.
She didn't know whether they would
really steal children-as she had
heard that some Gypsies debut
she wasn't going to take any
chances.
There were children in the camp,
lots of them, ranging all the way
from tiny toddlers to half grown
boys and girls. Some were playing
and some were working at light
camp tasks, Peggy Wondered if
there were any stolen children
among them. They all looked gay
and happy. There was no sign of
the sadness she would expect to find
in little ones taken from their moth
ers. Besides they were all just as
brown and wild looking as the older
Gypsies.
One little fodder in particular at
tracted Peggy's attention. He was
a roly poly Gypsy baby as fancifully
dressed as young prince. He was
playing about the special tent of
Tirzah, the Queen, and every few
minutes he would try to run away,
chuckling loudly as he scampered
from the watchful older children.
But they never let him get out Of
their sight or beyond the bounds Of
the camp.
Suddenly there came .nouting
from down the road. Pegs, from
her seat in the auto, saw cloud Of
dust rising. And beneath the cloud
she made out horses coming on a
gallop. They were mustangs from
wild west show at the fair, aid
apparently they had escaped from
the cowboys in charge. Warned by
the shouting the people scattered
right and left.
Peggy felt a thrill of alarm, but
she knew she was safer in the auto
than if she tried to run away. So
she sat still and waited for the
horses to sweep past.
When they were only few yards
away, she heard terrified scream
from the Gypsy camp. CHANGING in
that direction, she was Mortified to
see the Gypsy baby toddling across
the road. He was right in the path
of the mustangs and would be crush
ed beneath their hoofs. No one was
near to save him.
Peggy never waited to think. She
jumped from the auto, rushed out in
to the road, picked up the toddler,
and ran into the Gypsy camp just
as the horses Numbered past.
In a moment Peggy was sur
rounded by crowd of excited Gyp-
sies-big and little. Tearing way
through them came woman, fash
ing-eyed, handsome, tigerish. 1t was
Tirzah, the Queen.
Toto, my baby! Is he killed."
she screamed. snatching the toddler
from Peggy's arms.
He is safe, Tirzah. This brave
girl rescued him from beneath the
horses feet" The speaker was the
tall, ferce-looking Gypsy that had
stood at the entrance to the camp.
Tirzah turned toward Peggy. Her
eyes, which had flashed in anxious
fear, suddenly softened.
"Tirzah thanks you, Princess Peg
gy," she said. you shall come un-
der the Gypsy's charm as your re-
ward, and taste delights not given
to ordinary mortals."
Qn tomorrow's chapter Peggy makes an
alarming discovery
