The Maiden Was Little and May Have Been

“Yes, I‘ve made up my mind that
there‘s a fortune for me on the stage,
and all I want is some one to speak
for me."
The speaker was a little woman of
about 60. She was not an old maid;
she was a maiden lady. Her hair
was done up in countless curls, and
they were gray, too—iron gray. She
was thin and pain, but energetic and

Annabel can’t begin to dance as I

first costume will be scarlet. I don't
care for the serpentine dance. My

“Would you mind illustrating?" I
asked as I lowered the chandelier
and held up a book.
“Not in the least. Raise that
chandelier." . I did so reluctantly.
“Shall I play?" I asked.
"No: I want you to be a judge

Still holding her foot, she hounded
forwanl, plunged her right hand into
the couch, and giving a graceful
somersault she landed on the oppo-
site side of the couch. touching the _ ,_ ,7
bells on the chandelier with her dis-
engaged right foot as she made the
turn. '

"I’ll bill you good doy,"she said.
“It isn't youth the public wants.
It's manner and sprightlinoss, and
I've got tin-m both." She closed the
door, and I moved iiili'k the table.
