Their Married Life By MABEL "No, I draw the line at the Eiffel Tower." declared Warren vehement ! ly. You have dragged me around on J a rubber-neck wagon, and to most of I the tourists' haunts, but I'll be hanged J If I'll go up that tower." ' Helen looked crestfallen. "I sup- I posed everyone went there." ! "Then we'll distinguish ourselves by i not going. We've only got a few more j evenings and we're going to spend j them seeing things worth while. How ; about the Magic City? Like to go ! there tonight?" ; "But I thought Friday was the night for that." i "Yes, Friday's the big night, but if we sail Saturday we'll not want to be up late. If we go at all we'd bet ter go now." They had Just finished their dinner in a rather smart French restaurant on the Boulevard Canuchians. A few ! moments later they were on a bus marked "The Magic City." The day had been close and hot. and iow the night air seemed refreshnigly cool. Soon they were speeding across the Seine, the dark waters reflecting the lights of the bridge In long, gold en streaks. Beyond vas a great mass of illumination The Magic City. Even from a distance Helen could see outlined by the lights the Ferris wheels and scenic railways which made it look like Coney Island. As they left the bus and walked up hill toward the glittering entrance they could hear thu clash of a brass band, mingled with the grinding 1 music of the carousels, and the shrieks of the passengers on the thrlllln" scenic roads. Very Bewildering. Inside the panorama was bewilder ing and the crowd gay and noisy. Be fore each side show stood a "barker" shouting in French the wonders to be seen within. None of the attractions were over fifty centimes, ten cents. But the marvels of the painted signs that lured one to enter. The astound ing freaks, the monstrosities that could be seen behind these cheap en closures of canvas and board for only a few sous! "Regular old-fashioned side shows, declared Warren pausing before a highly colored lithograph of a cow with five legs. "This Is the sort of thing that used to travel with Bar num's circus. Just about ten years behind the times over here." "Do you suppose they really have a five-legged cow?" asked Helen. Warren grinned and Ipoked some change in the ticket window, receiv ing two pink checks which allowed them to go behind the red curtain. In a roped enclosure a brindle cow was calmly switching her tall and munching meal from a wooden buck et. At first glance she looked like any other cow. The fifth leg which had been so glaringly conspicuous in the picture was not in evidence. Then Helen saw attached to the fore leg a small malformation, with a half formed hoof. It was only a few in ches long and very Unlike the sturdy limb that the artis had painted under the cow in a sort of center table leg effect. "Well, that's more than I expected." laughed Warren as they passed out. "That'll come nearer to being the pic ture outside than anything else we'll see." Before the next attraction stood a girl In pink tights. with a bright green satin sash and two writhing ser nents around her waist. By her stood a swarthy thick-set man extolling the marvels of the ehow. Warren, who seemed In the moo to "take In" everything," bought the tickets. But Helen, who hated and feared snakes, entered reluctantly. The whole show consisted only of a boarded enclosure which held a num ber of snakes, a tired looking monkey and a monstrous turtle. The only ar rangement for viewing this menagerie was to stand around the board fence and look over. Suddenly the girl In pink tights came in from outside, leaped over the boards and the "performance" began. Gathering Up a dozen or more of the snakes, she hung them around her neck. Then she called to the mon key, who had ben sitting delectedly on the back of the turtle. He limped over wearily and submitted to having the rest of th wriggling snakes wound around him. Helen was filled with revulsion for the performance and with pity for the pathetic little money.

"Come on. lefs see what's next Beyond this was a scenic railway where the cars rushed out in the darkness, sn0t UP to dizzy heights and down sickening drops with their load of shrieking passengers. "If we're going to risk our necks on these things we'll take our chances at home," commented Warm as they passed on to a glittering carousel re volving ditzily to the tune of a steam calliope. Instead of the usual prancing horses and camels the steeds on this merrv- go-round were all pigs. Great pink which were number of good looking Frenchmen in evening dress and high silk hats. "That's the French of it," la lighted Warren at Helen's astonishment. "They say on Friday nights the very smartest people come here. Everyone wears evening dress and they take in all these whirligigs." They strolled on by several side shows and stands of popcorn, candy and tawdry trinkets. Even Helen could see that everything showed the cheapest and filmiest construction. "They're afraid to spend money over here, that's what's the matter," denounced Warren. "Any good sized town at home could put up a better amusement park than this." "That looks Interesting." Helen stood on her toes to look through the crowd at a sensational picture of a hypnotized girl suspended In midrair. "Dear, I've never seen anyone hypno tized. I'd love to go In there." As this was a more pretentious show the admission was one frac. In side were rows of rousrh hoard benches and a gaudily painted stage. "Hot and stuffy," grumbled War ren, "and they'll not start this show till they get a crowd. Think you want to wait?" "Oh, yes, now that we've come In." Helen was thinking of the two francs admission. In spite of the loud exhortations of the man outside, the crowd straggled in slowly. Aftsr a few moments War ren became impatient. "Oh, come on. We've got no time to waste here. But Just then the drumming and exhorting outside ceased. The "bark er" came In, went to the piano by the stage and banged out a lively march. The place was darkened and the cur tain went up. Instead of the hypnotist scene there was a group of girls n flesh-colored tights posing as "living pictures." Then the lights flashed out, a hurried scuffle on the darkened stage and the same models were again shown in a different grouping, "Venus apres le Bain." "I should say Tenus was slightly bow-legged," was Warren's Irrelevant comment. When a half doien other grotiplngs had been shown the curtain was low ered, the banging en the piano ceased and a tall thin man in evening dress stepped to the front of the stage. It was the hypnotist. Helen could not understand his rapid French but plainly his romarts were to impress the audience with the scene that was to follow. Then h stepped back and the curtain rose. Beside him on ths stage stood a girl In a gauzy tinselled gown. It was the same girl who had posed in the living pictures as Venus. She smiled down at the audience, then lay down at the back of the stage on a bench draped with blue velvet. The hypnotist stood over her and made mysterious passes with his hands. Slowly very slowly the girl's rigid form seemed to rise from the bench. The man continued to make the passes Until her body was sus pended In the air about a foot above the bench. Then, taking a hoop, he dramatically passed it over and around the girl.

With another impressive how the hyponitist re sumed the passes with his hands and slowly the girl's body- sank back to the bench. He snanned his fingers, the girl opened her eyes and sat up. The next ' moment he led her smiling to the '' fronto f the stage and the curtain fell amid- loud applause. "That was wonderful." whispered Helen, as they made their way out. "Huh, that trick's as old as the hills." scoffed Warren. "But, dear, how could it be a trick? She must have been suspended or he couldn't have passed the hoop around her body." "Oh. she was hold up thero by sup ports or wires, all right. I read an expose on that but I forgot how it's done." Rut Helen was unconvinced. To her the act had seemed very genuine and she was"- loathe to think it merely trickery. It was almost eleven now. Th crowd had thinned out, some of tho ughts had been turned out and several of the stands were closing up. "Nothing more doing hre," con plained Warren. "Xot in it with Coney Island, anyhow.
