Mrs Reginald had gained her point
without letting him know it.
Another five minutes later she went
out heavily veiled. She went far away
from the house and did not stop till
she reached the general post office.

There was no signature. The send
er's features were hidden, and not the
slightest clue was left whereby the
origin of the message might be Traced.
When she got home the first thing
she did was to take letter out of
her pocket, put 1t on the fire and
watch it become ashes. This was how
she would have treated such a docu-
ment before going out, but the ad-
dress of the writer was 80 important
a thing that she dared not trust to
memory in sending the wire She

THE LIFE SAVER
One Of the Plays for Next Week at Library
Hall.

Hall.
Did you ever lie In your nice warm
bed on stormy winters night and
think what the brave life savers en-
dure as they risk their lives over aud
over to save othersY Perhaps you
have, but II you see the play "The
Life Saver" by the Bennett Moulton
Co., you will be brought more than
ever TO a realizing sense Of what we
owe these brave men.
The theme OF this play is certainly a
grand one, for no calling is so noble,
as that In which man gives his life for
his fellow man. This play also deals
with another powerful human passion
or rather, human sin, ingratltude,
showing how ungrateful woman can
be and with what treachery aud deceit,
she can repay kindness aud love.
The story OF this play Is so intense
that on one occasion lady In the
audience actually rose from her seat
and cried out In her excitement to one
Of the performers, you contemplate
hussy, you are u disgrace TO your
sex This OF course, caused the
biggest laugh OF the evening although
there are many 10 the course OF the
play. Monday will be ladies night,
