It's your avidity | for life, your young enthusiams, and -----above all-ithe curious "power | some women have---(you're ene of { them) -----ot attracting love and hom- j age wherever you go. This universal | admiration does keep a woman girl- er the speaker, quite enthralled. "I ish." haven't met anyone in ages who so | interests me." (Which, in a way, was | true, since it's human nature to find the men were simply wonderful me' in- stinet in these matters," quoth Leonie, enjoying her effect. "I sense things--" Here a walter approached, and Lady Warrington ordered two more liqueurs--a second for herself, and one for the fascinating 'segress." "1 sense things," proceeded the { latter, solemnly. "For instance, the | moment I meet a woman, I know it she has charm for men, or not. It-- forgive my frankness--it radiates from you! It's a power beyond good looks, equipped as you already are with these. It's something Indefin- able, and yet--<as Barrie says so apt- ly--if a woman has this charm, she has every feminine weapon rolled in one, and needs nothing else. I am sure--'"--here Leonie lowered her voice confidentially--" I am sure that your life has been full of mea. Dear lady, you simply couldn't help it. It isn't in your power to drive them off. It never will be. You are one of those people--fortunate or unfortunate--who are fated to at- tract the opposite sex----the have suitors, one after another--'" She broke off. ("Good gracious! I sound exactly like a cheap fortune-telier! I ought to have a red scarf round my head and big gilt earrings! she told her- self. "She'll never fall for this old stuff!) "Oh, do go on," breathed Lady Warrington. This news was meat and drink to her--nay! nectar and ambrosia. "I---please don't think me fascination for some people-i-"' Leonie nodded sagely, & DR.

The Twins stood on the corner in Shut-Eye Town for quite a while, watching all the queer people go sil- ently by. "No wonder the Faify Queen said that Inco probably came here," said Nick to Nancy, "An elephant with pink roses all over him isn't half as queer as eggs that bend, and daisies in silk hats, -and gentlemen that turn into lobsters and snap their fingers at you. 3 "I should say not," said Nancy, "I wonder where the Forty Winks went!" That 'reminded Nick of the pink tickets. "We'd better be using these," he remarked. "They won't be any good tomorrow." With that he reached into his poc- ket for his ticket. But behold, no mat- ter how much of it he pulled out, al- ways some stayed in. It was like tak- ing hold of the end of a spool of thread. He kept pulling and pulling and pulling until he had quite ten yards and a half of pink ticket in his hands, | with dear knows how much more to come. Nancy reached into her pocket § her ticket, too, but Nick stopped h "You'd better not," he said. 1 Of course I'm not," said a y, and to the Twins' ticket grew a head that around and looked -at great pink eyes.

More, one day I'll | 80 there myself, and try them out.") | Her companion produced -a eard- | case, and offered her a bit of paste- board, whereon her name was | printed. | "Lady Warrington!" read Leonie | aloud, in tones made up of just the | right proportion of astonishment, de- | light, and awe. "This 1s a pleasant {| surprise for me. I've heard of you so | frequently - from dear personal | friends 6f mine." | And here the bold young creature {named the wealthiest of her custo- ! mers, and those most socially prom- | inent, whose names would at least | be familiar to her vis-a-vis. | Not knowing in what cireum- {stances Miss Leonie had met them, Lady Warrington was agreeably flat- tered once again. "I'm sorry I haven't a card of my own with me," apologized the form- er. (It wouldn't do to produce a business card--not yet.) "But I am Leonie Day-----one of the Hampshire Days, you know," she added, as an afterthought. Lady Warrington gave a little squeal and held her hand out cord- fally. "My late husband was a great friend of dear, handsome Sir Mar- maduke Day, who was killed some years ago in a hunting accident," she gurgled. . ' "Ah yes! A cousin of mine! Sad affair!" remarked the little hat-shop lady, nonchalantly. Then, with a quick twist of conversation, so that quicksands might be dodged: "We were talking of your hats. CRUDE PENCE glass over it. The sixth line said, "This ticket will take the owner to any place in Drowsy Land." A "Well, what of it," said Nick "What has that got to do with you stretching out so long I can't hold yow-in my two hands." "Lots," said the ticket. "Let me go, apd then see what happens. 1 can't take you any place, can I, if you're going to hold onto me so tight. Where should you like to go?" "Just any place at all," said Nick thoughtlessly, never dreaming what his words meant. : "That's three stations off," said the pink ticket. "Lay me down on the ground and see what happens." So Nick let go to ticket, and instant- ly it spread itseM along the ground in a straight line and turned into a rail- road track. And Nancy and Nick found themselves in a neat fittle car, rolling smoothly along on two long black lines that had turned into tracks. : '1 see now why they say that tickets take you places," said Nancy. "Isn't this fine!" with all its queer people. And the Twins forgot te wonder about the fool- They kept looking to the right and left this way sign of Inco and Flops. They passed an orchard where dreams were growing and a snore fac- tory, and a yawning cave. And they also passed a sandy hill marked, "Pri- vate! "Keep off! Sandman." "I suppose," said Nancy, "that is sand." * 8 It is," said the ticket. "But here we are. is is your station. It is called Any Place At All! Hop out!"

Frankly, Leonie did not. She achieved wonders, all the] same, first of all dressing Lady War- | rington's "untidy locks in more bhe- coming style, and then affixing each hat at its correct angle. "You are a genius," breathed the older woman. 'Yea have treansform- ed me, dear! Maids never stay with me, I'm so untidy and erratic. But I really need one.
