'J here was a man in our town, and he was wondrous wise; for when he marked his prices down, he then did advertise. And when he saw his trade increase, with all his might and main, he marked still lower everything, and advertised again. And when he advertised again, his rivals cursed and swore, to see folks go with a mighty r :sh to pa tronize his store. And when they sat in solitude and saw him custom win, that man behind the counter stood and raked the nickles in.

At that time they determined to carry out what had teen a long cherished project with them by visiting a "real" clairvoyant in his lair. So they looked 1 over the advertisements in a morning paper until they discovered one which held out especially strong inducements in the way of reading ! "the past, present and future, reuniting the separated." and all the rest of it. The two set off to find the address of the noted man. This was not difficult, but it conducted the girls through a part of the city of which they liad little knowledge and which certainly could not have been called attractive, Beaching tlie bouse, they ascended to the apartments of the "clairvoyant on the second floor" by a narrow, dirty and dark staircase. By the time they knocked at tho door of the mysterious place their first fresh enthusiasm had been somewhat dampened, and when the seer him- ! self opened to them they were ready to be convinced at once that be possessed a sinister and evil faco. After they had passed in, to their astonishment their host promptly locked the door behind them. The girls glanced at each other, but, noting that the key still remained in the look, they controlled their anxiety for a moment. YYorso was still to come. It appcured that this was merely an antechamber, and the clairvoyant led them directly through it to au inner room, the door of which he also locked in the same manner. Then he motioned them to seats, and the girls dropped into them, their eyes round with fear and a shaky, insecure feeling in their knees. The fortune teller n ilnvlr ur?/l hrAlltrllf Ui VCM III IW U U(lll\ * ivrnn i/i vugui forth some strange looking boxes, which his visitors, in their excited frame of mind, decided were extremely dangerous things. The girl nearest the door moved uneasily in her chair and cast eyes of longing toward the lock. She was nerving herself for a desperate effort Her chance came in n moment, when the clairvoyant, excusing himself politely, plunged ibto the depths of another dark pantry, presumably to hunt up more materials. Loaning far over, without rising or making the slightest noise, she turned the key in the lcck and exchanged one look of comprehension with her companion. On the instant both started to their feet and, secrecy being no longer possible, they fairly hurled themselves through the doorway. An exclamation and sudden movement behind tbcm did not serve to lessen their haste. With trembling fingers the girl who had made herself leader managed to unlock the second door, and in their precipitation the two bad a narrow escape fiom falling headlong to the bottom of the stairs, Meanwhile the clairvoyant was panting after them, shouting to them to return, but his words only terrified the fugitives still mora ' Then the man who htfd rend the past and from the appearance of things could make a j>retty good guess at the future lost his temper and acted solely with reference to the present. Picking up a big, soft doormat which luy at the head of the stairs, he hurled it down furiously after his escaping clients. It was well aimed and struck tbe last girl squarely on the head and shoulders. If anything had been needed to complete their utter panic, this accomplished it. The horrified girls never diow breath until they were at least a block away in tbe open street. Even then they dodged fearfully around several corners to baffle any pursuit which might be attempted. They reached their homes in a very different frame of mind from that in which they had started, and never?no, not if you were to offer them a fortune out of hand for itwill they dabble with the occult in that form again.?New York Tribune.
