Then she questioned of the child’s parents, her past life, and the events just preceding the catastrophe in San Francisco, that she herself might better understand how to shield and make happy the little waif that a terrible, heaving earth had cast into her home, her arms.,CHAPTER I THE LITTLE EARTHQUAKE GIRL，“They’re a regular Damon and Pythias, aren’t they?

This reference to her attempts to out-barnum Barnum brought a bright smile to the wan face of Betty.,She put back his tumbled hair, looked long into his eyes, realizing with a shock that she was looking up.
