For the cards certainly did run wrong for her this week. Mrs. Rosa Is French, so she says, and certainly she ought to know. She was dealing out all aorta of good luck to tho negroos In a Central avenue resort, and predicting anything from fried chick en to a government Job, according to the price. But she overlooked a bet. If sho had done a solitaire stunt last Tuesday and searched the cards for her own fortune, sho would have seen ap- reaching In the distance a small londe man, who was destined to cross her path. It sho had peeked a bit further beyond the veil of mys« tery sho would havo seen Jedge Belles a-settln’ on his bench, while In the background loomed the gates of the city stockade. But what’s tho use! She knows all these things now, from the Inside. For Mrs. Small was haled before thw recorder and fined 126.75 or thirty days. It being held that In telling fortunes without a license she was cutting In on , the city’s revenues. Fortuno telling! hadn’t been profitable In the season oft 1907, and the soothsayer could not cross the Judge's hand with anything like the . sum demanded. So now she Is In the stockade and her little doughtrr Is in I the Home for the Friendless until heH mother Is free again. Harry Smnll, thaq husband of the wise woman, was die*' missed by the recorder. SMOKERS WAN7 70 SMOKE ON OPEN CARS ONCE MORE "If you want to k$yp that dream pipe lit.
