Then Nanny drank her tot<lb />like.a man. It wag too absurd to<lb />watch her conduct after this.

Suddenly<lb />she jumped from her hiding place<lb />and rushed to the door, barking fu-<lb />riously.

There are<lb />dances and songs, games and feast-<lb />ing, but all else is but the prelude<lb /><lb />~| to the great event, when chance is<lb /><lb />made the handmaid of love. At the<lb />arrival of the proper hour the host-<lb />ess gives a signal and withdraws<lb />into an apartment, accompanied by<lb />all the girls. The lasses are ranged<lb />upon long benches, where they pose,<lb />a tittering phalanx of freshness and<lb />beaaty, with naught in their smiling<lb />affability to suggest that a scratch<lb />on blooming cheek might reveal the<lb />Tartar.<lb /><lb />The hostess is supplied with long<lb />strips of broad cloth, and with this<lb />she straightway muffles eachT and<lb />every maiden. She twists it deftly<lb />over and about the head, until hair<lb />and features are hopelessly veiled;<lb />she winds it about the neck, thc<lb />shoulders, the waist and on untii<lb />the sprightly and lissom figure of<lb />the:girl is merged in the rude ous.<lb />lines of a papoose.<lb /><lb />This is the preparation.
