And this is the story Of Wheaton's
fault.
Arthur Wheaton at twenty was
fine young fellow just out Of college.
and, being very ambitious and talented.
his friends all predicted brilliant ca
reer for him.
During the first summer after gradu-
ating he went to the seashore, where
he had am adventure that colored his
whole life A girl Of eighteen, Anna
bel Whiting. while bathing, got caught
In sea puss and was carried out
Wheaton, a splendid swimmer, went Ia
and swan with her to one Of the ropes,
where he held her till the bathing mas
ter came in boat and got them ashore
Miss Whiting, a lovely girl, repaid
Wheaton by giving him her heart
The episode occurred early iii July
and long before the end of that month
the young people were engaged Miss
Whiting was obliged to leave the beach
early in August, and Wheaton, having
many friends there. decided to stay on.
1t was a great pity that he did not go
with his fiancees
The day after Miss Whiting left a
party came to the beach to spend a
week. They were smart people and
drank great deal Of champagne On
the morning Of their arrival two Of
them d man and woman, were stand
ing on the beach looking at the bathers
when Wheaton walked down to the
water. There was some conversation
between the man and woman looking
on about him and his splendid figure, at
the end Of which d bet was made be-
tween them that the woman would
bring Wheaton to her feet before their
weeks holiday was ended. The same
day the man sought an introduction to

nothing more There was no similarity
between her type and that Of Annabel

Before Wheaton met Mrs. Hyde she
had heard of his saving Miss Writings

interest in the matter, inducing him
