becomes enraged when Carson
makes Insulting remarks , about
the studeut's innocent friendship
with Sally aud striken the farmer
a teiriflc blow. . .
Sally and David run away and
join a carnival, David as cook's
helper and Sally in a sideshow,
disguised as "Princess Lalla,"
crystal gazer. ' . ,
Nlta, Hula dancer, who knows
the police are after Sully and Da
vid, tells Sally she will expose her
it she doesn t keep "hands off
David. Klta 'admits shamelessly
Bhe is infatuated with the boy.
in Capital City, Sally soon for
gets her fears under her success
lul guise of the crystal gazer.
She is confused one afternoon oy
i a handsome, well-dressed East
erner who teaslngly Insists on
reading her fortune in the cVys
tal. He stays in the background
lot the tcrowd with his eyes con
stantly oij "her. However, Sally
foigBts him when sho sees all of
Iher little friends,., the Inmates (it
the orphanage, troop into her tent.
I Sally wonders who - is playing
("good angel" to the orphans when,
Bhe spies a woman with them,
j handsomely dressed, but with a
look of sadness In her eyes. Sally
Is jerked suddenly from ner con
templation of the lovely . woman
by the Words of one of the chil
dren: "That's hot Princess Lalla..
It's Sally Ford, play-acting." ,
NOW 00 ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXVII . ,. ,
For a terrible .moment, long
enough, for Gus, the barker, to
jump from Jan's platform and
como-, toward her on a run, Sally
sat frozen with terror. .She fell
that Betsey's keen eyes "had strip
ped her of her brown make-up, of
her fantastic clothes, of the pro
tecting black lace veil, so Unit'
anyone who looked at her could
see that she was indeed "juat Sally
Ford, play-acting." . ...
She wanted to rise from lieV
gilded chair and run for her life
mid David's but she had lost all
control of her muscleB. Betsey was
still clinging to her,, her babyish
hands shaking the slender shoul
ders under the green satin jacket,
when Gus bounded upon the plat
form and took the almost hyslerl-,
cul child Into his arms.
"Hollo; Tiddly winks!" he bung
out jovially. "Having n good time
at the 'carnival?-. Listen, kiddie!
I'm going to give you a real treat!
Yessir! You know what you're go
ing to do? Just guess!"
Sully felt the blood begin to thaw
in her frozen veins. Gub was stand
ing by. Dear Gus! But Oub was
too wise to give tho child lh his
armB a chance to reply. Ho hur
ried on, his voice loud hnd cajol
ing: ' . , .
"I'm going to lot you stand right
up on the platform with the little
lady midget her namo ,'PiUy
Sing' and show all the other kids
how much bigger you are than a
Eiown-un lady. Yessir, sho'B ' a
grown-up lady and she's not near
ly ha big as you. Now what do
you think of that?"
Betsey was lorn oetween ner ioo
for Sally, whom she was convinc
ed she had found, and her pride
In bolng i chosen to stand beside
the midget. She looked doubtfully
from Sully, whose eyes beneath the
black lace veil wero lowered to
her tightly locked , hands to tho
platform opposite, where "Pltty
Sing," tho midget, was strotchlng
out a tiny hand Invitingly. The
midget won, for the moment at
least. , ' , .
"I'm sli going on seven, and I'm
a big girl," she confided to the
barker on Whose shoulder she was
riding in delightful conspicuous-;
nesB. ,
The children, true to the herd
Instinct which had been so highly
developed In the orphanage, troop
ed after Gus and Bctsoy, even
more easily diverted than she from
their pop-eyed Inspection of "Prin
cess Lalla."
Sally heard Thelma answer an
other child derlseiy: "Aw, Bet
Boy's otf her nut! Sure that ain't
Sally. That's a Turkish pilncess
from Con-stan-tino-ple. Tne man
said so. 'Sides, Snliy's white, and
the princess Is brown "
"All right, children, right this
way!" Gus was bollyhoolng loudly.
"Permit me to Introduce ' 'Pltty
Sing,' tho smallest and iifcltie-lt
little woman In the world. Just 29
Inches tall, 29 years old and 29
pounds heavy. Did I say 'heavy'
Etcuse ine, Pltty Sing! I meant
29 pounds light! Look at her, lit
tle ladles and gents! Ain't sho
cute? Her parents .wero Just us
big as yonr papas and mamas "
Ho remembered Just too late
that he was talking to orphans, and
his Jolly face went dark red. But
he recovered quickly, glanced
about his audience, saw that .Miss
Pond was straying nervously to
ward Sally's platform, as if half
way convinced that Betsey's child
ish Intuition had been correct.
"Oh, Miss Pond!" he snng Out
Ingratiatingly. "1 wonder If you d
do me , the ravor to step on tne
platlortn. 1 believe Betsey Ms Scar
ed. YesBir, 1 believe she's geared,
hull nut of her skin!" Ho laugh-
'cd, stooped to chuck Betsty Under
ithe chin, then, with a courtly ges
ture, offered Miss Pond his hand.
, Sally looked, on her throat tight
with fear and with tears of grati
tude toward GUS, the barker,
with a rapid flro of talk and jok
ing, kept his Rudienco completely
hypnotized. He Jollied shy little
Betsey Into taking the midget In
to her arms, like a baby Or a big
doll, and only Sally, of ftll those
who looked on. could see how
(keenly the artificial smiling Utile
atom of humanity was resenting
this Insult to her dignity.
j Ho coaxed the flattered and flus
tered Misa Pond Into standing be

side "Pitty Sing," so that the chil
dren could see what a vast differ
ence there was in their height
And comeliow be had attracted the
attention of a carnival employe,
tor before he had exhausted tho
possibilities of the midget as a di
version, Wlnfield Bybee himself
came striding Into the Palace of
Wonders, mounted the midget's
platform and, after a moment's
whispered conference ; With . Gus,
made an announcement:
"Children, I'm old Pop Bybeo;
Wlnfield Bybee Is the way its
wrote down tn the Bible.' I own
this carnival and 1 want to toll
you children that I'm proud to
have you as my guests. I love
children, always did! Now, boys
and girls, the Ferris wheel and the
whip and the merry-go-roundB are
waiting for you." )
, He was Interrupted by a whbdp
of joy from the boys In which the
girls Joined more timidly. "It Won't
cost you a cent. If your chap
eron -' hnd he turned td jilfts
Pond With a courtly bow "will Jo
me the honor to accept these tick
ets, you'll have a ride on the Fer
ris wheel, the whip and the merry-go-
round, children, but gather at
the door of the tent. I thank you."
When he sprang, rather stiffly,
from the platform, he offered Miss
Pond his hand, then, with her ami
pressed to his side, he escorted
her with iiompous courtesy to tho
door of the tent, where the chil
dren were already , milling about,
wild with excitement. , . . '
In her" terror Sally had forgotten
the golden-haired Woman in the
green silk sports knit. Now that
the danger was passing, miracu
lously averted by Gus arid .Pop
Bybee, she started to draw a deep,
t'rombling sigh of relief, but It was
choked in her throat by the diseb'v
ery that Bhe was being Vegarded
Intently by the beautiful Wohiah,
who Was standing beside the inld
get'S platform.
. "Oh!" Sally "thought In a hew
flutter of terror. "She heard Bet
sey call me Sally Ford. She's go
ing to question me. I Wonder who
sho Is. Maybe she's a .trustee's
wife bh, she'B coming! She's go
ing td talk to me " . - .
, She roso frohi her 'high-backed,
gilded chair, trying to do so with
out haste. Since the performance
waB ended she had every right -to
leave the tent, and vhe would do
so, but she mustn't Tun. She
mustn't give herself away .
"Hol-lo Enid! I couldn't believe
riiy eyes! What In the world are
ydu, doing so far from Park ave
nus?" . ' .-
Sally, forcing herself . to walk
with sedate lelsurelineBS down the
little wooded steps of the platform,
saw tho New Yoi kor who had been
paying her half-nibcklng, half ad-
'Btride swiftly and gracefully across
the tent toward the 'golden-haired
woman. So he too had witnessed
Betsey's hysterical ' identification I

The golden-hnli'ed Woman halted,
iilid Sally,, out of tho corner of her
veil protected eyes, sihV nn 'expres
sion of startled surprise and thon
of annoyance sweep 'over the beau
tiful little face. Odd that these
two .who had bo strangely crossed
her path In ode hectic day should
know each other. Should moot a
thousand miles away from home, in
the freak BhoW teht of a third-rate
carnival!
"Oh, hello, Van! I might ask

Court's here oh business and i'm
amusing myself taking the orphans
to the carnival. A now role, for
nie, Isn't It Lady Bountiful! Poor
little devils. If only they didn't

Now that she was safe from be
ing questioned Sally wanted to
make -her passage to the "alley"
door of the .tent , take as long ,us
possible, so that hot a note of the
musla of that extraordinary voice
should be lost to her. She had ex
pected . the . golden-haired lady's
voice to be a sweet, tinkling so
prano, to match her lu size, but
the voice which thrilled her with
its perfection ot modulation was a
rich, throaty contralto, a little ar
rogant, even &8 the speaker was,
but so effortless and so golden
that Sally would .have been divine
ly content to listen to it, no mat
ter what words it might have said.
Sally payned at the door of the
tent, and cast a swift glance hack
ward over her greeh-satln shoul
der. '"Van" was holding one ot
"Knld's" hands in both or his,
laughing down at her. mockingly
but fondly, as If they Wore tho best
of friends.
"Well," she said to herself, a$
she ran toward tho dress tent,
"now that he's found her, he won't
bother me. 1 wonder who 'Court'
Is. Her husband? I hato rich wo
men who play 'Lady Bountiful',"
she thought with . florco rcRnnt
mnnt.. "Hut I can't hate her.
She's too beautiful. Like a tittle
gold-and green hlrd a singing bli'l
a bird that sings contrnllo."
She was resting betweon shown,
lying on her cdt In the dresB tent,
when Pop Hyhee .came nlrldlng In.
"It's all right, honey. Don't be
scared to go on with the show.
That Pond dame onmo cackling to
mo, all het tip, half believing what
this Betsey baby said about yon be
ing Sally Ford, but I give her a
grand song and dance about yon
being the same Princess Lalla
who Joined the show In New Votk
In April. She wanted to talk to
you, but t steered her off, told her
you couldn't hardly speak English
nnd she'd just upset you. Just
stick to your lingo, child, and don't
act scared. Ain't a chance In Ihe
world the pond dame will make an
other squawk."
He must have, spoken to Gus,
also, for the barker cut her late
afternoon and evening perform-,
ances - as short as possible, ("!-
though by doing so he lost many a
quarter. She smiled upon him
gratefully, was pleased to the point
of tears by his whispered: "Good,
kid! You've sure got sand!" aft3r
111 10 o'clock show when she had
apparently regained her confidence
and her Intuition in sizing up
"rubeB" who desired to know "past,

As the evening wore on the heat
grew more and more oppressive.
The wilted .audience passed lan
guidly from freak to freak, mop
