ers don't. Why. the side show
lis a blessing Ito them! One OF
the sweetest women | ever knew
was a freak! Her whole life was
IA poem of unselfishness and
sympathetic understanding and
love. She never married but she
mothered 3 several generations OF
circus kids. She had the loveliest
face | ever saw but she weighed
400, pounds and couldn't walk a
Fstep." ~ IS
Couldn't the doctors do any
thing for herr"
; Donna laughed. "Her fat was
her livelihood. Maybe she did
try to reduce in the beginning,
but when l knew, her she was al
ways trying to take on more
weight. She didn't mind it."
$3.50
But Bill was not Donna's only
caller. Some of the townsfolk,
drawn partially through curiosity
but more through kindness,
came to help pass the tedious
hours. During the second week
Of DOnna's stay in the hospital
Bill often found her surrounded
by young girls, eagerly listening
to her tales Of the circus and
most of them ready to risk life
and limb for the opportunity to
win applause as circus perform
er. For the time beino their al
legiance had turned from movie
stars to achobatic headliners.
Lulied into security, Donna al
most forgot her own identity.
When she was with Bill she felt
she was Madeline. Only once did
she come close to giving away
her secret. She had begun to
tell him Of her fathers death
and the narrowness of this escape
made her watch her tongue more
carefully than ever.
| She wondered what Madeiine's
father and mother had been like.
Madeline had said once that she
resembled her mother but she
had never shown Donna a. photo
graph. An enlarged portrait of
Roscoe Siddal hung in the farm
house dining room but it was a
crayon atrocity and Donna dis
counted it as a likeness. Made
lines father had died of pneu-
monia and his wife had fingered
! for years afterward, making her
home with her father-in-law.
That was all Donna knew.
If she was to carry on the mas
uuerade for an indefinite period,
she decided, Madeline must sup
ply more information. If only
she could write the other girl !!
She could not ask anyone else to
put down the questions that were
puzzling her and it would be
weeks before Donna could use
her right hand.
Two short, cheerful notes had
come from Madeline but they
contained almost no news. There
was nothing about Madeline's
state of mind, the real cause of
the accident, or any reference to
the deception she had forced on
her partner. The notes did speak
of Con David. He had a new cat
"a huge, unframed tiger that
was beauty. Con was taking
Madeline to dinner almost every
night now. Had. Bill arrived yet?
"Do have Bill or someone write
to me-" Madeline wrote. "fm
frantic for news"
The day Bill announced to
Donna that they would depart for
the farm on the morrow she sum-
moned courage to ask him to
write a letter for her.
