At We summit, a height perhnps of eleven feet, he paused. with arms extended, to effect a balance. i'or some reason or other the frame - 0 ork remained perfectly steady and perpendicular, while the fakir stretch- ed himself out like a splder on !te web. At intervals ou tho bamboos were heavy- nails, rusty, but sharp at the point. These nails distinctly penetrate ell the mats s mahogany colored flesh when iso stretched himself out on the fr•a mework. "Thus he remained, a hideous wound made by each nail, from which the purple blood flowed, lying there for the space of ten minutes or so, except for talc blood a lifeless figure of clay. Then, mnnttering some strange gibber- ish, nnlmation returned, and, making movements so that the nulls were ex- tricated from tho wounds, the fakir twith tris toes kickeu away the scaffold- ing and remained himself alone unsup- ported In midair.
