Onlya short time elapsed when those de-

sirous of learning of their future appeared before the ‘.‘Great Wonder,”

It appears that from the commencement

the fortune teller displayed a lack of the cunning, but it was not until ten c'clock in the evening did his lluish dawn upon him. ' _

At that hour a gentleman with two lady friends called at -the Savoy House and 1 inet the “Wonder” at the door. With a Parisian politeness the fortune tellers ushered his supposed patrons into the parlor. When told that the party wished

house. He would be married and have

to have :their fortunes told he displayed great delight at the way trade was boom- ing. He then motioned the gentleman to al chair for “treatment”j and proceeded' to tell his fortune by placing his chubby fingers on the party’s head with the pretense of bring a phre-- nologist, whereupon the gentleman re- marked that “you goat it ina proper way.” The fortune teller replied, “Oh yes, I go right to the bottom.” After making a most rigid (1) examination he commenced to tell the gentleman that “it took a long time to get his temper riz,"butwhen it was once “riz” he was “`quick temper.” He would meet with disa poiutment within a year and some obstades were in his way and he was trying to make a certain pointwhich he would not reach, but he was not to“stiddy”(worry) over it. He was to be well oii’ after that year and was tolive ina nice house-a two story

seven children. After some deliberation!

he said that the gentleman was a clerkin _ astore ahd handled glass. ' ` The ladies were next told their fortunes andthe iiist examined was to _» have four children. ‘ The other was to be blessed with three but she was to “row” with her

hushand. Both, however, were going to eroso water within A year to “foiiie e rei- low.”This ended the fortune teller’s labors _ and he turned to the gentleman' of the party whereupon the gentleman asked thefortunetellerhisneme and if be bid alieense!
