The fortune feller scanned Patty's
pink palm with narrowed eyes. Then
she peered Intently into the greut crys
tal ball before her.
,"A lover for my lady," she said Im
pressively.
"Oh, bother 1" cried Patty, thrilled
to the core. - .
"Perhaps he Is not coming," gloomed
the palmist maliciously. "A"h, I see
that a pretty lady does not love him?
he rides away ? far away. The line la
the palm aud what the crystal reveals
do not agree ? "
? '"Try the cards, then, Jane," broke
1b a tart voice behind . Patty. "Get
on with your fortune telling, my dear.
Here Is poor Patty hanging by her
ears, so to speak, and waiting ? "
"Ethel, you are Idiotic," offered
the amateur seeresB, forgetting pose
and foreign accent. "Pretty Lady Pat
ty, your lover Is coming to you rid
ing oil a- lion? there, greedy one, Is
not 'that your money's worth 1" she
gibed. ' , ,
Patty Gray tossed another half-dol
lar on the scarlet .cloth and went out
laughing. This bazaar to raise money
tor dally vacation schools, had been a
huge success, and Patty, who had
worked tirelessly from the beginning,
was now enjoying a little of the fun.
Jane's fortune telling /was always
?mUslng ? her French glii had a ready
wit that, added- a tank of credulity *o
her predictions, and .She sent? all fier
clients away hsppyTTraTPatty's fortune
did not please Patty herself.
"How absurd I Coming on a Uon, In
deed I I don't believe there Is a cir
cus within a hundred mile's 1" With
three or four eligible young men trail
ing: after, not one of whom Patty cared
a sixpence for, It was a pity that J ane '
Lemon t could not have unearthed
somebody out of the ordinary tor one
of her dearest friends.
"Perhaps she is nbt as rtad as it
sounds," thought Patty, sitting down
on one of the deserted benches that
overlooked the fountain and the merry
go-round. "I wonder where Dick Haben
U tonight? He has acted simply hor
rid ever since the ' bachelors' dance.
When Ernest ; monopolised -me. Well,
I have sent them all away for good
now, and I was hoping ? "
Patty sat open-mouthed, which was
entirely becoming, for -she was a re
markably pretty jrlrl. , , \
'"" Something was happening over at
the merrj-go-round. She hurried over
tod discovered that young , Laddie
Smith had , been trying clrctis stunts
on. the wooden horses and had bumped
his head violently. Patty rendered
first aid? plenty of Ice and a jtrlp home
In the family car. "That Is thkt 1" she
sighed.
When the Uttte crowd had scattered
Patty ' remklned near the carrotlfcel
watching the children, and' sometimes
riding herself. Once fehe sat ' upon a
camel" and went circling and swaying
around the ring trying to extract ro
mance from) the presence of the wooden
camel upon which she rode. , . '
"No use in 'pretending,' " she smiled
to herself, "that I am a sheik's daugh
ter speeding over the hot sands of the
Sahara, when a* glimpse over my left
shoulder reveals the glimmering foun
tain." " ' ; /
The sheik's daughter puraued her In
nocent pastime, hailed by all the chil
dren as a rare . playmate, until pne by
one they departed for the, refreshment
tent, leaving \ Patty alone with the
dying music and. the slowing carroukel.
"I feel ilke the lonely lady that sits
In the sight-seeing bus to draw custom
er#," sighed Patty, when Henry, the
owner of the ? carrousel,^ started the
music ofT with an alluring tempo that
brought a wild scramble from the re
freshment tents. No w j here was fun
a-plenty. ,
Patty Clung to her mount and
whirled dlizlly ; ahe wondered what her
family would think to see her abandon
herself to this child's plsiy, when eligi
ble young men were to be had for the
acceptance thereof, for Patty had
played about for k' long t'me and her
parents wanted to see he/"happHy mar
ried. They were waiting patiently for
Patty 'to really ca're/for some one, be-#
cause "Mr. Wright" bad not yet ap
peared at the Gray home.
? Patty yawned and turned around to
see if lier neighbors Included any
friends, because the children were leav
ing now and their elders were reckless
ly buying tickets for the merry-go
round". .
"Oh," cried Patty, and turned face
front again, her cheeks/growlng pink.
Just behind her camel was a roar
ing lion In vain pursuit. Mounted on
the lion was a man.

"How silly I am." thought Patty,
then a sudden dlxtlness as the ma
chine slowed down and stopped short.
Bhe knew she wss falling from her
esmel, then sinking ^lown Into utter
blackness of oblivion, the "sheik's
daughter" fell Into the arms of rhe
Hon rider.
What could be more romantic than
that he hsd teen her swooning and
leaping from his beast had caught U?r
In bis strong arms? It was. lie who
bore her to the first -aid tent, -and re

me to express her gratitude for your
watchfulness, as It paved her from: a

"I ani 'glad I was tAero, nurse," he
said with his grave smile, and then
hurriedly sought the fortune-teller's
tent. His Cousin Jane Lamont was
putting on a stiff-brimmed sailor hat
and looked very smart and trig In Iter
silk tailored suit; her black eyes were
dancing.
"Jane, who Is Miss Gray?" ne asked
abruptly.
Jane grinned Impishly. "Mibs Graj

WINDIEST ZONE OF
NORTH HEMISPHERE
, ? . j
The windiest sone of the northern
hemisphere embraces the . northern
United States and southern Canada.
The windiest months are those- of late
autumn, winter and yery early spring.
August has the lowest average wind
velocity, March ' and early April the
highest. Wind Is the flow of alf from
an area of -low pressure. The greater
the contract of pressure between the
masses of air over two adjacent re
gions, the swifter and stronger will
the wind blow. Pressure differences
are largely dependent upon tempera
ture contrasts, In summer the tem
perature contrast between high and
low latitudes Is relatively small. In
winter It Is great, for while the snow
and Ice-covered North gets colder and
colder, In low latitudes there Is little
temperature variation through the
year. ( Therefore, the pressure gradi
ent, to use the term of meteorology, Is*
gentle In summer and steep In winter.
The gradient may be likened to a slope
of land. The air pushes down the
gradient from high pressure to low,
as water flows down a variable slope.
The steeper the slope, the greater the
velocity, whether It be air or water.
Therefore, because the gradient Is
steeper In' the cold months, the fiercer
are the winds. There Is, however, a cu
rious difference between the flow of
a* stream of water and that of the air.
The water flows down the slope, ?the
air along It, pwlng to the rotation of
the earth on Its axis.
Meaning of Word "Sib"
Until ?a few years ago there were
probably few people outside the mak
ers of dictionaries who had ever seen
or heard the word "sib." JYet In the
rura] districts of England It used to.,
be a food enough word, a little rough
and uncouth, like other short and ugly
terms, but with "a clear and definite
meaning that no other single word
had. It means a brother or a sister,
or sometimes any collateral relatives
of the same std^k. Yet the expression
never got Into good society until the
science of eugenics came along. The
eugenists took to It right away for It
filled for thero a long-felt want, and
In papers on eugenics It' Is frequently
met, meaning brother or sister. Sci
ence has given It fl good character and
new dictionary writers will have to
"take from H the tag which labels It
ns uncouth and out of date.

The tenth stroke from the strong

Pharaoh to time and made him Willing
to let Israel go. The Israelites went
out on their way to the promised land
With a high hand. Through the land
of the Philistines the Journey would
have been comparatively , short, but
God commanded them to turn from
that way, lest, going through the land
of the Philistines, they. would be dla
eouraged at the sight of war and de
sire to turn back to Egypt The way
of the wilderness was a long route,
but It ,had many valuable lessons for
them. By this they escaped the experi
ence of war, but learned the crooked
ness and peryerseness of tljflr own
hearts (Deut. 8:2).
The Lord went before them In s pil
lar of cloud by day and a pillar of fir#
by night . He not only thus Indicated
unto them the right- path, but walked
with them In it At the Lord's direc
tion they .turned from their first course
and were made to face something dif

Interpreted thla to mean that Moses
was unable to lead them out of their
difficulty. Therefore, they went in pur
ault hoping yet to prevent them from
going out of the country.
I. The Miraculous Escape of the Is
raelite* (Bxod. 14:2}, 22).
They were In a straitened condi
tion, but bad no reason to fear, for the
Lord had led then there. There seems '
to have been a twofold-object In lead
ing them Into this particular place : to
strengthen the faith of the people and
to lay a snare for the overthrow of the.
Egyptians. The people, as usual, dis
played their unbelief, even censuring
Mose* for ifeaainjf ? them out of Egypt
Mosea replied to their murmurlngs by
?dying: "Fear ye not stand still, and
see the salvation of the Lord." Stand
ing still in such a trial Is faith tnirtng
hold, on Ood's promises. God said to
Moses: "Wherefore crlest thou unto
me? Speak unto the children of Israel,
that they go forward." Having had
Hla definite promise, to have prayed
longer would have been unbelief. The
lifting up of the rod simply served cls
something tangible upon which their
faith could act' They were to go for
ward, a step at f. time, without raising
any Question as to the outcome, for
from the same source from which came
the command came the power to obey.
The presence of the Lord was adapted
to their needs as they went forward.
The form of the Divine presence and
help Is determined by fjjls people's
needs. The cloud then passed to the
rear and held, the enemy at bay. The
presence of God had a double effect:
darkness and confusion to the enemy
and light and guidance to His people.
As they went forward the very thing
which seemed their destruction became
a wall of protection on either side.
II. The Overthrew of the Egyptians
(Exod. 14:28-81).
Having seen the Israelites go across
dryshod, Pharaoh and hla people mad
ly pursued them. They Insanely
thought that they, In their unbelief,
could follow in the wake of God's
children. The Lord looked forth from
the cloud and wrought confusion
among the Egyptians. He not only
looked' upon them, but took off their
chariot' wheels, causing them to realize
that God was fighting against them.
He then directed Moses to stretch
forth his rod and bring destruction
upon the Egyptians.
III. The Song of Triumph. (Exod
15:1-21).
standing on the" other shore of the
Bed sea, they could fittingly sing the
song of triumph because of the mi
raculous deliverance and overwhelming
defeat They attributed all to God.
All self was left out. In a glad coming
day a similar but larger congregation
will sing the same song with an addi
tion, namely, of . the Lamb (Rev. 15:3).
