But It Was Hard Work. Then, as -she was clasped in the of her father and mother, she knew that 1,400 girls, if they are the right kind of girls, can keep a secret as well as one right kind of girl But it was hard work.

You see, 1,400 girls and their friends make quite a “crowd,” and if Miss Burrall had been allowed to go about much that day somebody might have given the big surprise away at the last moment, Thrown Off Her Guard. That night—it was Monday— Miss Burrall was invited to a “birth day party” at the church. The girls had told her they were planning a “surprise” for the coming Saturday, so she was thrown off her guard. After the party had been under way a time, 500 girls being present dressed as children, Miss Burrall was called out of the room. When she came back one of the girls read a little poem, which ended with these word;: “Dad and mother—here they are!” Miss Burrall looked at the door and there dad and mother were, sure enough.

He had a rich coppercolored skin, with a flush of color on it like the color on an Indian Peach, “rfid you ever seen an Indian Peach?” asked the Garden Lady. “His hair was deep, deep black. His eyes were black, with high lights in them that gleamed like dewdrops on black velvety darkness. He had on a strange garment that seemed to be. beaded with bright golden-yellow beads about the size of corn grains. Over this close fitting garment hung a robe of gold color and green that floated back from his shoulders in the night breeze. In his black hair tassels or plumes of yellow nodded. He smiled a wildly beautiful, yet sweet smile, that was like a sudden gleam of rose-and-golden sunset light For all his green clothes he looked as dreamily and followed the strange beckoning silently to tthe boy. “ ‘I have come again, little pale face. Many times I come to those who love their fellow beings. Rise and wrestle with me. It is your turn, now, to do this deed of service for your paleface brothers.’ “Then Tommy Thoughtful rose dreamily and flolowed the strange visitor, who glided out through the low French window to the dewy lawn, beckoning silenely to the boy. “There they Wrestled in the moon¬ light, silently but wildly, till the staj-s seemed to dance about them.
