THE LITTLE LIOH TAMER.
“W*pk in, ladies and gentlemen;
you're just in. time; we’re going to
begin 1” and the man with the pal
lid face and green eyes cried out
his programme in a husky voice,
as he walked up and down the
platform of one of the finest men
agerie tents at tho Limoges Fair.
The canvas at the right of the en
trance represented a tribe of
monkeys in more or less grotesque
attitudes; at the left, panthers
with yellow eyes and enormous
manes. In the center the artist
had painted a colossal woman,
dressed in dancing costume.
Upon the platform, in the right
corner, four "musicians—three cor

mule, pointing to the menagerie,
“I want to go in there.”
“It must be terribly close in
there, madame,” said a tall young
maui in dragoon uniform, who
was walking at the pretty widow’s
right.
“Oh, a little more or less doesn’t
matter,” philosophically replied the
young woilian, whoso name was
Mine. Clery.‘Will come?”
*he asked, timing towavd a group
of friend*^£xfcSfoflq' -ed her.
After a- momei „ -visitation
they all entered W tent, which
was already well filled. A large
man, who seemed to be the owner
of the menagerie, was seated at
the door and took the money.
'‘Hurry up!” he shouted; “the
performance has begun.”
The animals were apparently
leas numerous than the signs out
side indicated; the principal cage
contained two female lions and an
enormous male lion reclining idly
on the floor and looking disdain
fully at the crowd through half
dosed eyes. .
Suddenly a door in the rear of
the cage slid back and a young
girl entered. Her beauty aston
ished the men, while the women
bkdled at sight of her. She was
a blonde, with blp© eyes and fresh
aomplasgon, and wore an elegant
blue and white costume.
TANARUS% lieto had heard the cage door
ghut, and he got up, stretching
himself lika a hug© dog. and gave
a long look at the little lion tamer.
She approached him, holding a cir
ede in one hand and a whip in the
other. The lion jumped through
th® circle and the crowd applauded.
Henri Maurel, the young man who
had followed Mme. Clery into the
menagerie, clapped his hands even
more loudly than the others.
The performance continued; the
tamer made the animals go through
the ordinary exercises. Once, one
of the female lions refused to obey;
then the young girl knit her pretty
brows, darted a glance from her
sapphire eyes and struck the beast
with her whip.
Fresh applause followed and the
young man, standing close by the
stage, cried out: “Bravo for the
pretty girl!”
Th© lion tamer raised her blue
•yes upon Henri, who devoured
her with his glance. She became
confused and blushed. In another
minute, recovering her self-posses
sion, she cast her eyes upon the
animals. It was time, for the fe
male lion had straightened herself
up and was looking at the young
girl ferociously. The lion tamer
drew a revolver from her belt, fired
four shots rapidly, and, before the
smoke had died away, disappeared
from the cag-e.
The crowa filed out noiselessly,
meeting another lot of spectators
who were entering to see the next
performance.
“That little girl isn’t IB years
old,” said the Colonel, “and she’s
stunningly pretty.”
“Her beauty is a little insipid,”
said Mine. Clery, in a scornful tone.
“She looked at you for a mo
ment, lucky dog,” said the Colonel,
turning to Henn; “that’s what it
is to be young.”
The following dav Henri Maurel
returned from nis horseback ride.
After a few seconds’ hesitation he
suddenly decided to leave his
here# at his quarters and go to the
ready op.on, but the tents wore
closed.
\\ hen he oc.me near the menag
erie Henri saw the crier seated on
the plalform mending his red cos
tume.
“ Well,” ho asked the man, “is
business brisk?”
“For the boss,” replied the crier.
“Joan!’ called a gentle feminine
voice from the interior of the tent.
“I’m coming, Mam’zalle Paula,”
replied the man, rising.
“One moment,” said Henri,
this time placing a silver piece
in Jean's rough hand. “Who is
Mam’zelle Paula?”
“She is the niece of Old William,
our boss. In short, she’s the lion
tamer. ”
The curtain that concealed the
entrance to the tent was drawn
aside and Mile. Paula appeared.
It was no longer the bold lion
tamer in the theatrical dress; she
looked like a simple country girl
She was as fresh as the morning
and blushed at sight of the officer.
But Henri soon found means to
reassure her, and she had already
replied to some of his questions
when a coarse voice in the tent
cried out: “Are we not going to
have dinner to-day?”.
The crier rushed into the tent,
and Paula, after a parting glance,
also disappeared.
After that morning, whenever
Henri was not detained by his
military duties, he came every day
at the same hour to exchange a
few words with tho pretty girl,
who, for her part, began to tliink
often of him, and welcomed his
arrival with radiant smile and
throbbing heart.
One day the young girl burst in
to tears as she told the officer of
the near departure of the menag
erie for a neighboring village.
They would see each other, perhaps
less frequently. Then Henri ob
tained a promise that Paula would
meet him after the performance.
It was midnight, the crowd had
departed, the lights were extin
guished and silence reigned. Henri,
in citizens dress, walked impatient
ly to and fro behind the tent.
Suddenly he preceivcd the girl
coming towards him, and he hur
ried to meet her.
“Dear little Paula,” ho cried,
taking her hand in his.
The colloquy of the two friends
was not to be of long duration; a
heavy step was heard, and old
William appeared. At his ap
proach Paula uttered a cry of
Iright and slipped away. Old
William came forward and placed
his hand upon the officer.
“Monsieur,” said he gravely,
“let me have two words with you.
I must tell you that I have seen
your game from the beginning.
“You must cease to see that girl.
Paula is a good girl. You know
that because of the difference in
your stations no good can come of
your courtship.”
The tone in which the words
were said affected Henri and he
fromised to think no more about
'aula.
And he kept his word, though
not without difficulty. One eve
ning, on returning to his quarters,
he found a letter written on colored
paper and surrounded with lace,
such as children send their sweet
hearts on St. Valentine’s day.
These words were written in a
trembling hand:
I am very sad at not seeing you any
more. I thought that you would come,
all the same. It is finished, I know.
Adieu. I tvill never forget you.
A tear had fallen upon the word
“never.”
The poor girl liad told the truth;
Henri had produced an ineffacea-
ble impression upon her. But it
was otherwise with Henri. At the
end of six months he had com
pletely forgotten the little lion
tamer. Ho had married Mme.
Clery and had gone to Paris to
five with his wife.
One summer evening, after a
jolly dinner, Henri and his wife
went with some friends to the
Neuilly Fair.
“Let us go in,” he said. “Paula,
the little lion tamer, is inside.”
Henri was suddenly curious to
see if the little lion tamer would
recognize him.
It was in the middle of the per
formance. Caesar, the big lion,
refused to jump through the circle
that Paula held out.
Some seats were vacant in the
front row. Henri, his friends, and
his wife took them. Paula raised
her eye upon the new comers, and
instantly recognized Henri. Her
knees trembled, a haze obscured
her sight, and she let fall the whip
with which she had just struck
Caesar. The animal uttered a ter
rible roar and sprung upon the
little lion tamer.
There was a frightful tumult in
the tent; the men rushed at the
cage, the women screamed and
fainted away. The strong voice of
old William was heard above the
noise: “Bring the red-hot iron bar!”
Henri, carried it up to the cage,
saw the little blue and white cos
tume all covered with blood and
the enraged beast's fangs tearing
the breast of poor Paula.
When the red-hot bar was
brought it was toe late. The poor
little lion-tamer died ef her wounds
during the night. From the
