Queer Earthquake Prank.

An earthquake that shook India not
50 long ago was remarkable for the
curiously distorting effects it pro-
duced on standing objects. Similar ct"
fects have been noticed from other
earthquakes, but seldom to SO striking
an extent. In an official report in the
matter it is described how this earth
quake twisted a lofty monument at
Chatak. The monument was an ODE.

than sixty feet tall and twelve feet
square at the base. About. six feet
Of the top was broken off aud thrown

in height was separated :wenty-three
feet above the ground and twisted in
direction opposite to the motion Of
the lands of a watch, but without

tie fairy tales, better than any that
Briaties could tell, because all her
people seemed alive and spoke in
different voices, so that 1t really
seemed as IL they were in the room;
and when she cano and knelt down
by the side of his bed with her arms
clasped about him, letting him ask
all the questions he wanted to ask.
and answering them in voice
which sounded like music in his
ears when ct last he could not keep
his eyes open; and when she came
TO him In wonderful dresses all
white and shimmering, Ike n cloud
in the sky, and said:
do you think l look pretty to-
night, my Nick?" ambient TO kiss
him SO that he could take deep
breaths OF the scent in her hair,
like the smell OF the hower-beds in
the park. and stroke her soft white
arms, and whisper his love for her.
Sometimes at these times there was
an excited light I'm her eyes. so
that they shone like the candles on
each side OF his mantelpiece, and
sometimes she would swish up her
gkirts and dance about the room
on the. tipa OF her toes, and some
times Bristlcs would como In and
stand with his hands in his pockets
staring at her with queer smile,
until she sank into u deep curtsey
and into the waves OF her white
dress before him, when he would
hold out HIS nand and raise her up,
. and kiss her on the arm as she
danced out of the room. Those
were scenes which Nick cherished
In his heart. and which long after

startled out OF her wits by such
precocious wisdom.
- Nick did not answer. So that was
the meaning Of the word! This
new knowledge cast 4 gloom over
his spirit! 1t hurt him to think that
Beauty might have been pretending
to him MI the time. Perhaps he
had never known the true self OF
her. He must try to find 1t out. He
would watch and try to catch her
unawares. just as no had caught
the Squirrel once when 1t thought
that nobody was looking. 1t was
quito different squirrel to the ono
he had imagined when no had only
seen its bright eye peeping out from
the back parlor Of It's cage.
On tho journey to the theatre with
Bristles In q hanson cab he sat
very quiet. drinking in all the new
Impressions of this great adyen-
ture in tho night. All tho lamps
were alive, thousands of them, like
ginning flowers that came dancing
past tho window OF the cab. And all
the buildings were like fairy palaces,
so white in the glow OF the night
lights. SO terribly black where the
shadows made their hiding places.

Nick bit the end of his pencil
thoughtfully. and then said:
what Is q theatre?"
'It is a place where people pre-,
tend to be other people. like you
and l pretend 10 be bears. They
get so much into the habit of pre-
tending that half of them never get
back again to their real selves"
Nick stared at Bristles in alarm.
81 should hate that. What does
Beauty pretend to be?"
well, tonight she is pretending
to be fairy princess in love with
an ass. It's rather good fun, old
man."
NBut ladies never do fall in love
with asses, do they?" asked Nick.
ooh, often" said Bristles, who
was putting on his boots, the shiny
ones in which Nick could see his
own face.
ut would be awkward If Beauty
fell in love with an ass, wouldn't
it?" said Nick.
"Deyilish awkward"
Bristles gave q queer laugh, end
ing in queer sigh. and Nick didn't
like the look OF things. IL would
be frightfui II Beauty got so much
into the habit of pretending that
she couldn't get back again to her
real self.
But he accepted tho invitation to
the theatre because Of his desire
for knowledge, and although no

yawned once or twice because 1t
was getting near bedtime, he told
Bristles that he had sent the old
dustman of with flea In his ear.
Polly was in very bad temper
when she helped him to dress In
his best things.
Shameful, call 1t, keeping
child out OF his bed. And the
lheayter is no place for my poor
innocent poppet. 1t all comes OF
having hactress for u mother"
II was tho first time she had used
the word since Nick's attack with
tho scissors. and, as she said after
ward to the servant in the next
fiat. she could have bitten her
tongue off for having mentioned 1t
again. But Nick had made one of
his great discoveries. 1t came to
him in q flash.

tends to be what she isn't, and

said on a certain historic even
ing, would. you like to come to
the theatre and see Beauty in all
her glory?"
Nick was drawing pictures OF
Battersea Park. They were his
private pictures which nobody
could understand but himself. But
there, clear enough TO his eyes was
the old tree with arms that tried
to reach down to small boys but
were not quito long enough, and
the Squirrel which was always hid
Ing In tho back parlor OF his cage.
SO that only one bright eye looked
out, and the twin old gentleman
owls, and the one old lady owl, who
werc always taking afternoon maps,
even in the morning, when the sun
was shining, and there was the
lake, with boats full of boys who
were always shouting because they
had discovered magic island
where tofrce and gingerbread nuts
and striped bulls eyes grew on the
trees. All these things had Nick
put down In pictures, but he had
not yet drawn the noise of the
fshouting boys. nor the smell of the
flowers which grew by the side OF
the lake, when Bristlcs asked him
the big question.

made his greatest discovery about
Beatty.
1t was mad, in the kitchen,
where he was building e giants
castle out Of a cardboard box, while
Polly was ironing handkerchiefs,
and splitting on the hot iron 30 that
1t made that splendid sizzling noise
which Nick loved to hear. It was
between ono of the spits that she
gave great sigh and said:
Tho Lord be praised I amt
hactress!"
What Is bactress?" asked
Nick.
your mother IS hactress, my
poor poppet." said Polly.
Nick was silent. 1t was clear to
him from Polly's tone OF voice that
a"hactress" YVES very awful and
horrld thing.
"Why shouldn't she be hac-
tress?" he said, putting himself on
his guard.
TITS what no woman ought to be,
in my opinion" said Polly, dnbbing
down the iron with a bang.
Nick had q great respect for
Polly's wisdom. She could do many
things which neither Brlstles nor
Beauty could do. She could bake
bread and make suet puddings with
plums In them, and sugar mice with
currant eyes. She knew almost
everything there was TO be known
about grown-up people, cats, babies,
policemen, beetles, cutting out
paper figures, folding paper boats,
healing burns and blisters, getting
Richmond times-dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1914-current, 1922-01-01

like the big clock in the hall, and
his eyes growing larger and larger
until they seemed as big as his
head. There was dead silence
for morlent after that awful
crash. Then Bristles shrugged his
shoulders. up to his ears-Nick
learned the trick from him-and
went out OF the room whistling
tune. Beauty put her hands TO her
face. and tear-water oozed through
her fingers. and her body shook
like tree in Battersea Park when
the wind blows, 1t was the sight
Of Beauty's shaking body which
made Nick suddenly rush to her,
clutching at her skirts with great
howl of grief. Then, to his sur
prise. Beauty took her hands away
from her face and burst out laugh.
Ing, although her Dyes were all
moist and shining.
"If you ever break vase like
that" she said. "I'll skin you alive.
Nick"
why did you break it?" asked
Nick.
Because 1 had n monkey on my
back" said Beauty. "Such an evil
little monkey"
Nick walked around and looked
Mt his mothers back.
II think you tell most frightful
whoppers." he said.
And yet no know that better than
anything in the world to him was
Beauty on her good days. That was
when she was not in hurry for
once, but curled upon the hearth
rug with him, telling him queer lit.

crowd, nodding to one or two peo.
pie. and saying good evening to a
gentleman in white wig, purple
coat and breeches, and white silk
stockings, whom Nick knew, with
out being told, to be the owner Of
the theatre. and un immensely rich
man. Then Bristles went down q
long corridor where two or three
women like Polly. only not 30 ugly.
said Good evening, SIR" and
grinned in an aggressive way at
Nick, and finally opened a door
which led into little room where
there was big window without
glass, with a balcony outside, look
Ing into vast hall full of velvet
chairs and white faces and little
twinkling lights.
