CHAPTER XII.

THE LURE OF A wOMANs LOVE
~ AROLINA had come to find
out from Haines. If possible,
y how her father was going to
vote on the naval base and to
induce the secretary to persuade him
to stand for Altacoola-if there seemed
danger that he would vote for nm.
other site. That was her scheme, for
Carolina had put $4,000 into Alta
coola land, money left by her mother.
Norton had persuaded Carolina to in
vest In the enterprise to defraud the
government. promising her $4,000
clear profit. How much she could do
In Washington society with that!
The continued uncertainty over her
fathers final attitude had strained her
nerves almost to the breaking, for the
success Of the conspiracy depended on
his vote. Not even the words Of Nor
ton, her future husband, could reas-
sure her. Her worry was increased
by the knowledge Of Randolph's in
vestment Of her fathers $4,000.
That Carolina must sacrifice Haines
on the altar Of her consuming desire
for money, for higher worldly posi-
tion, was an unimportant considera-
tion. He STOOD fin the way. Any mo-
ment he might discover the existence
Of the Altacoola scheme, he would i'm
ncdiately tell her father, and she knew
her fati.cr would Immediately decide
against Altacoola-the bright hopes Of
her future would turn to ashes. Nor
toms money as well was invested In
Altacoola. He, too, would be ruined
She was sure that she loved Norton,
but she could not marry a penniless
man.
Carolina resumed the conversation.
"It isn't anything SO very important,
Mr.. Haines. It's about father"
uaines beamed.
81 have the honor to report, Miss
Langdon," he bowed, "that your fa-
ther is making the very best kind of n
senator"
Tho girl hesitated.
"Yes; he might If he had some an
btion."
Don't worry! If he comes down to
that, I have ambition for two. You
want him to be n success, don't you?
