to visit. Laura She wanted me to be
there when you came home"
What lucki" cried the captain.
Then I can take charge of you with
out any further nisgivings?'
You cam" replied the girl .'Uncle
Bateman will meet me at the station
tomorrow to see that I am all right,
and he can officially transfer me to
you. He'll be especially glad to meet
the train because of the attempted
robbery. He's superintendent of this
division, you know
The captain turned and looked at
the girl.
See here, you precocious child" he
said. I am going to ask you to prom
lse me something. don't know what
you suspect about this robbery busi-
ness, but If your suspicious implicate
me In any way with it, / want you to
promise here and now that you'll not
say a word about it, Please promise"
The girl slightly yawned.
I'll promise not to say a word" she
said.
Thank you:''
He looked at his watch.
Past 12,'' he said. You'll have six
hours sleep. Let me try to make you
comfortable"
The train reached the city a half
hour late, and Supt. Bateman was anx-
iously awaiting it's arrival He hustled
into the car and spied Millicent in
moment.
"Glade to see you, my DEAR he
cried. Not badly frightened, were
you?"
mo, uncle" She answered. .I wasn't
alone, you see. This is Capt Cameron,
on his way home from the Philippines.
He's my friend Laura's brother, you
know"
The two men shook hands.
"a good many of us have heard
something about Capt. Cameron" said
the superintendent. And now what
can you two people tell me concerning
this train robbery? 1t looks as if the
gang was broken up for good and all,
thank heaven. And the conductor says
there is some mystery about it. No
body seems to know who the modest
hero is.''
The girl looked up at him innocent-
ly.
People can't say anything about it
when they have promised not to speak,
can they?" she asked in her most
childish way.
What! Then you know some
thing?'
glance, but she avoided it.
IF I know anything I've promised
not to say a word about it."
Her uncle leaned toward her.
"tCome, Millie,' he said in his most
wlreedling tones, 'if. you know any
thing about this matter you also know
that it is important for me to know 1t,
too. Who is this man who risked his
life to break UP that gang of scoun-
dreIs?"
The captain gave the girl an implor-
ing glance but she did not heed it.
Putting finger to her lips she pointed
to the leather covered case on the car
floor.
The superintendent looked down.
"Eh, what's thiS2o he cried. "a gun
case! Where's the sowner?"
He looked at Cameron and then
turned to the girl. With one finger
still across her lips she was pointing
straight at the captain.
"Of course" cried the superintend-
ent, .the very man to do it," And he
seized the captains hand and wrung it
warmly. II can't tell you, sir, how
much we feel indebted to you'll"
The captain, flushed and troubled,
looked at the girl.
.Yoh promised not to TELL" he said
reproachful1y.
sT promised not to say a word" she
demurely answered
You are altogether too precocious,"
he laughed.
And then they all laughed together.

There had been something amiss
with the one sleeping car. There was
talk of a cracked wheel, or frac-
tured axle. Whatever the cause, it
wasn't considered safe to proceed any
further with the heavy coach. The
passengers, who had just begun to
settle themselves for the night, were
unceremoniously elected, and told to
find room in the day coaches ahead.
The sleeping car was full, but the two
day cars were not crowded. There was
room for all.
Cne of the dispessessed passengers
was a young woman who looked about
he1 little tinidly as she entered the
day car, and hesitated moment before
she sought q seat. Presently she saw
an empty one and took possession of
it.
There was some humping about as
the tra:ii1rer. uncoup1ed the damaged
coach AID ran it onto a switch. The
young woman, with her face close to
the window. could see the lanterns
swinging and the lights in the little
station. Then with a sudden jerk the
cars bumped together as the train was
off on its long run across the pralrle.
AS the girl Strengthened UP she noticed
that a stout man was standing in the
aisle and smiling down at her. Then
he seated himself beside her, deposit
ing his travelling bag at his feet. The
light of the car was dim, and the new
conner peering around at the girl was
quite unable to catch the expression
on her shaded face.
Don't you worry" he said, in a
husky voice, ATll look after you all
right
The girl gave no indication that she
heard this offer, unless a sudden
shrinking movement that drew her
closer to the window could be con-
strued into an answer. 1t was a slight
movement, and yet it attracted the
attention of the man in the seat be-
hind her. He leaned little forward
Anything I can do for you, Miss?"
said the stout man as he tried to get
a glimpse of the girls face.
She family shook her head
Fhe man in the rear seat leaned still
further forward.
Let's be sociable.' said the stout

do you know that ST. Paul society
is a paradise for the old girl" said a
visiting woman yesterday who is of an
observing turn Of mind. and who has
been in St. Paul long enough 10 take
note of the social conditions.
81 mean nothing disreSpectful by the
term old girl" she continued: '-but
merely use it to distinguish the class
from the younger or dancing set. In
the East when a girl has passed
through a number of seasons, she has
a dreary time of it. AS a social factor
she hardly counts, for the nnatrons and
the buds command all the attention.
The elder sister is rather~puslled to the
wall and generally takes refuge in
either mission work or career.
Opportunity in the West.
'But out West here it is entirely
different. An unmarried woman who
has reached that age when she con-
siders dancing less important than
dining has an opportunity of taking
the reins of social leadership in her
own hands, if she has money. Even
without money opportunity is given
her to assert herself.
THE busy matron, who is also the
housekeeper here in the West, is glad
to resign into her hands many social
duties that she finds irksome, but
which are a delight to the unmarried
woman whose experience aids her in
performing these duties well. Then,
too, your club circles encroach so
much on the circle that is purely social
that this gives the unmarried woman
another opportunity of rescuing herself
from oblivion. The matron, if she is a
housekeeper, too, cannot and will not
give undivided attention to club mat
ters. The unmarried woman can and
will. Consequently she has an oppor-
tunity of becoming power in club
circles.
81 think when I go back that shall
say to all those unmarried Eastern
girls, who find themselves becoming
nonenities in social life, Go West, my
dearS go West"
