Bradley put 1t carefully into his pock-
etbook and sought TO lead the con-
versatlon into other channels.
But that evening when lie reached
home he tucked the print into his
looking glass and went TO sleep to
dream of the girl. His own vacation
came in n few days, and he determln-
ed to spend the time in locating the
station aud through that the. girl. The
l.. and V. had three sets of plans from
which it built stations. These were
OF wood, brick or stone, according TO
the Importance Of the place. There
were probably fifty or sixty stations
along the line precisely like the one
In the picture. Instead Of buying n
ticket TO the fishing country, as he had
at first intended, he purchased n mile
age book and started out to find the
station.
Just above the door in which the girl
had been standing he noticed pecul-
lar knot In the boards, and. giving up
only sufficient mileage to carry him
on to the next wooden station. he
made his way down the line. He rode
ed him from closely examining the
stations and then left the train, to the
great relief Of the conductor, who had
early In the day come to the conclu-
sion that his passenger must be In
Sane.
The second days search was no
more successful, and on the evening
OF the third day he had come to the
end of the line without having locat-
ed the station he sought.
He bought another mileage book and
turned back over the road. and this
time he found the place for which he
sought The station had been newly
painted, and the knots had been COW
cred up by the paint.
But he found that the station was
only the first step. There still remained
| the girl. There were half dozen
places where summer boarders were
taken, he learned from the station
agent. He picked out one and made
arrangements TO have his trunk for
warded, and then he settled down tC
prosecute his inquiry.
"Seeing the train come in" was q
popular occupation with the summer
visitors, and Bradley did not let {
single train escape him. He huns
about the station at all hours, but be
yond getting very well acquainted with
the station agent he made no progress
It was apparent that the girl he hat
sought had gone.
II was near the end Of the secon,
week thai Bradley summoned up tn
courage TO show the agent his photo
graph and ask information.

thought that perhaps she might Ike
one IL I could locate her"
81 remember her" said the agent.
Bradley's heart gave a bound.
"She's gone out west somewhere"
said the agent vaguely. and Bradley's
elation was suddenly checked
81 suppose that some one has her
address," he suggested. II might get
It from them and mail her a copy"
The agent smiled.
"She wasn't visiting no one" he ex-
planned. "She just stopped of here a
couple of days TO see the lake. I
think her ma came from here years
ago, and she wanted to see IT,"
what was her nameT Bradley re-
fected that perhaps she lived in city
where they had directory.
"Molly something" said the agent.
81 don't recollect that know what her
other name was"
Perhaps the woman who kept the
boarding house at which she stopped
might know" suggested Bradley, but
again his hopes were dashed with tho
answer that the girl had stopped at the
hotel.
Bradley searched the register for
two months back, but there was no
hint there. The little hotel was run In
easy going fashion, and the register
was ornamental rather than useful.
At last he gave up in despair. lie
had run every clew TO EARTH and he
knew no more than on the day of his
arrival. His vacation had come to an
end, and, since II was useless to linger
he gave up the quest.
The town had never seemed as hot
and dusty rs II did on his arrival. and
as he came at last TO the apartment
house in which he lived and recalled
the hopes with which he had started
out his depression reached the lowest
point. He climbed the stairs. At the
top Of the last flight girl came out
OF the rear fat, and in his surprise
Bradley dropped his suit case. The
girl Of the picture stood before him.

asked as she greeted him.
"The Homecoming was the best OF

sclous Of his hidden meaning. I'm
glad you're here. My niece. Mol,
Joslln. from California. is spending ,
month with me. She came the dn!
after you left. You escaped two week

There are two weeks left" he said
with n smile. THAT will be plenty o
time"
"That Is not very gracious speech,
suggested Mrs. Harold, with laugh
Bradley blushed.
I'm afraid II doesn't sound the wa,
mean IT," he stammered. II can
very well explain now"
But he made his explanation teI
, days later. when he showed Molly Oh

presidential can paign.
In view OF the fact that Mr. Hearst
has declared that he will not be a
candidate for the presidency, there is
believed to be but one contingency
that would result In the Independence
league putting ticket in the field.
1t Is certain that no steps will be
taken In this direction until after
the Denver convention. 1t Is assum-
ed that should the democrats fail to
nominate William J. Bryan for the
presidency, the independence league
would Immediately hold national
convention and put third ticket In
the field with Mr.. Bryan's name at
the top OF 1t.
