"To ask you a few questions about the devil-stick." "I forgot to tell you my name," she said, holding out a strong, slender hand. "I am Margaret Howes, and I know you are Elinor Kendall, for I saw it on your locker. I don't know your sister's name—she is your sister, isn't she?" Patricia hesitated. "But perhaps you'd rather have an easier costume,—Aladdin's mother, or——".
