But something went wrong. No soldiers appeared, and the curtain went doum upon a Sarah balked of her agonizing. . _ I I I

AND then from behind the curtain proceeded a commotion like ﬂint of a hundred rarest-bred llonesses in coxiolove. following which the curl taln drew up and Sal's-ll was discov- ered in o fury the like of which cannot be described, beating her breast, lashing her ﬂanks, land roaring with open mouth.

"But kill me, please, Kill me. Kill me!"

And, sheepishly. the platoon ap- peared, lined up, and killed her.
