SYNOPSIS.

r Archibald Terhune. a popular and in
dolent young bachelor Of London, re-
ceives news that he has been made heir
to the estate Of his Aun Georgiana, with
an income Of $4,000 a year, on condition
that he becomes engaged to be married
within ten days. Failing to do so the
legacy will go to a third cousin in Amer
lea. The story opens at Castle Wyckof.
where Lord Vincent and his wife, frie2ds
of Terhune. are discussing plans to find
him a wife within the prescribed time. II
seems that Lady Vincent is one OF seven
persons named Agatha. all close girlhood
chums. She decides to invite two OF them
to the castle and have Archie there as
one Of the guests. Agatha Sixth strikes
Archie as q h~andpainted beauty. Agatha
First is a breezy American girl. LADY
Vincent tells her husband that Agatha
Sixth already cares for Archie. He gains
from Agatha Sixth the admission that
she cares for him. but will require a
months time fully to make up her mind.
Agatha First, neglected by Terhune, re-
ceives attentions from Leslie Freer. Four
days Of the precious time have passed
when Terhuna is called to London on
business. Agatha First. O. the plea OF
sickness, excuses herself from a motor
trip planned by the Vincents.

THE INCOME TAX.
II Law Cannot Be Enforced II
Should Re ReDealed.

Complications as to the payment
of income taxes in Greenville coun-
ty may cause the law to be repealed
by the general assembly or some
provision made for it's strict en-
forcement. The county auditor Of
Greenville has reported the names
of Is from Greenville who have paid
their income taxes. The income tax
is on a graduated scale on all in
comes above $500. Comptroller
General Jones has a list of over 70
persons in that county who have
been reported to him as being liable
to the law.
Last year the income tax AMOUNT
ed to approximately $4,000. The
comptroller general is of the opinion
that it should have been at least
$4,000. He will recommend to the
general assembly that unless some
means be given him to enforce the
law, that it be abolished.
Last year the comptroller general
wrote a letter to NJ. L. Gullick, the
county auditor of Greenville county,
giving him full instructions as to
the collection of income taxes. The
large list Of names was also sent to
him. So far the county auditor has
made no report so far as is known
at the Office Of the comptroller gem
eral. I.
A similar condition to hal 'of
GreenYille exists in many Of the
other counties Of the State.

ONE WAY TO BE MODEL MAN
Young Son Of Thrifty Mother Lets

There's more than one way Of being

son of a thrifty mother to the girl
upon whom he was trying to make q.
good impression.
How 500" asked the girl.
TITS more or less of a family secret,
but ever since mothers chatty chum
came in and found me arrayed In an
up-to-date overskirt, with mother ON
all tours at my feet with a mouthful OF
pins trying to makeHt hang straight, (

and begin to dressmake with my
sylph-like form for a model. But when
l got home from college this last time

proportions and mother has been
forced to buy herself a pneumatic

said. "Pederson can wait with the
car and I'll send him help from the
castle"
And all the way home 1 pondered
upon my queer adventure. What
could Agatha First be doing In a
strange automobile in the middle of
the woods when she was supposed to
be Ill 1T home, and who was the man
who was with her, the owner of the
checked coat?' That was the most
mysterious part of the whole business
to me, and though l racked by brain
I could not possibly think who he
might be-!

PART TWO.
CHAPTER vi.

It wasn't until later that same aft
ernoon Of our Northbury trip, when
Lady Vincent and I had assembled tc
our rooms to dress for dinner, that
I found a chance to tell her the news
I can always be sure of an uninter
rupted chat with her then.
"And 30 you saw her sitting in the
automobile alone in the middle of the
woods?" asked Dearest, when l had
finished my %breathless recital.
Eyes, that is as far as I could see
she was alone" I replied. But you
forget the mans laugh and the
checked coat. There was a man with
her right enough, and though l didn't
think so at the time, l think now that
makes the thing much more mysteri'
ous."
"Of course there was a man with
her" remarked Dearest. ut was a
lovers tryst, as plain as plain can
BET" Dearest Is so romantic. But
then at the same time I'll have to
admit she's nearly always right.
But who under high heaven
could It have been?" 1 cried, never
more puzzled in my life.
1--WE know it wasn't Freer; he was
with us all the time, and Terhune has
been in London all day."
HE said he was going to be in
London" remarked my wife with the
slightest possible emphasis on the

said" I gaped at her a moment,
then seized her shoulder.
do you mean to say 1t was Archi.
bald?" I cried, who was the owner
of the checked coat?"
II didn't say" she replied, "only
it does look a little like it, doesn't 1t?
You see he couldn't go to the cricket
with US because he had to go up to
London, and she, because she had a
headache. VOLTA tout"
But we saw the wire," I objected.
ooh, as to that" she said, " a tele,
grams easily enough cooked up! He
had only to write one himself and tell
the station-master to send it over.
We none Of us examined it closely.
It's en- old dodge, you know"
$50 1t is" I cried, and you're
right. 1t must have been old Ter.
hume! What a dunderhead I've been
not to see it before! But l say" l
added, less eXuberantly as a thought
struck me, IF that's the case, what
does he NEAR by it, Dearest? What
do they both mean by it, he and she?
And what does it portend in regard
to the match we're trying to make be,
tween Arch and Miss Lawrence? An.
swer any of those questions If you
can! Wiseacre that you are, I be-
lieve you'll have to let me count ten
on that"
I'm afraid I WILL" she admitted, as
puzzled as l was. you see I never
knew Agatha Endicott as we'll as !
did the other five Agathas-as well
as 1 do Agatha Sixth, and then you
know Agatha Sixth has visited me
before, and this is the first time I've
seen Agatha First since We parted
on the occasion Of my marriage"
