SYNOPSIS.

MAD Dan Maitland, on reaching his
New York bachelor club, met an attrac-
tive young woman at the door. Janitor
O'Hagan assured him no one had been
within that day. Dan discovered a wom-
ans finger prints in dust on his desk.
along with a letter from his attorney.
Maitland dined with Bannerman. his at
torney. Dan set out for Greenfields, to
get his family jewels. During his walk
to the country seat. he met the young
woman in gray, whom he had seen leav-
ing his bachelors club. Her auto had
broken down. He fixed it. BY a ruse she
lost him. Maitland, on reaching home,
surprised lady in gray, cracking the safe
containing his gems. She, apparently,
took him for well-known crook, Daniel
Anisty. Half-hypnotizsd, Maitland opened
his safe, took therefrom the jewels, and
gave them to her. first forming a part
nership in crime. The real Dan Anisty
sought by police of the world appeared
on the same mission. Maitland overcame
him.

Vert1slng his misadventures He felt
in his soul that they shrieked aloud,
that they would presently succeed in
dining all the town awake, so that
the startled populace would come to
the windows to stare in wonder as he
passed by. And inwardly he groaned
and quaked.
AS for the policeman, after some re-
luctant hesitation, he overcame the in

affects his kind and, swinging his

land lodged into the musty, dusty body
of the vehicle grateful to escape the
unprecedented stare of the guardian of
the peace, who in another moment
would have overtaken him and, doubt
less, subjected him to embarrassing
inQuisition.
AS the ancient four-wheeler ratified
nCisily over the cobbles, some of the
shops were taking down their shutters,
the surface cars were beginning to run
with increasing frequency, and the
sidewalks were becoming sparsely
populated. Familiar as the sights
were, they were yet somehow strange
ly unreal to the young man. In a
night the face of the world had
changed for him; it's features doomed
weirdly blurred and contorted through
the mystical gray-gold atmosphere of
the land of Romance, wherein he real
ly lived and moved and had his being.
The blatant day was altogether pre-.
posterous; to-day was a dream, some
thing nightmarish; last night he had
been awake, last night for the first
time in twenty-odd years of existence
he had lived.
He slipped unthinkingly one hand
into his coat pocket, seeking instinc-
lively his cigarette case; and his fin
gers brushed the coarse-grained sur
face of a canvas bag. He jumped as if
electrified. He had managed altogeth-
er to forget them, yet in his keeping
were the jewels, Maitland heirlooms-
the swag and booty, the loot and plum
der of the nights adventure. And he
smiled happily to think that his inter-
est in them was so per cent. depreci-
ated in "a hours; now he owned only
half.
Suddenly he sat up, with happy eyes
and a glowing face. She had trusted
him.

tuberculosis AffIlcts Japanese.

Consumption among Japanese labor
ers is increasing to such degree that
the figures are becoming a source Of
anxiety to Japanese merchants and Of
ficials. A large percentage Of labor
ers who are sent back to Japan by
the Japanese charity associations are
consumptives. 1t is claimed by the
Japanese newspapers comenting on
this matter that through the lack OF
hospital accommodations in the jap
anese labor camps tuberculosis in
creases at an alarming rate. They
suggest that a new system be en-
ployed in dealing with the sick in
these camps, as the Japanese are
quite ignorant of even the most sim
pie health safeguards.
