home and fed to Canada, where she
was expecting to meet him.
Learning this, the detective was
deeply interested. not only in the
brother, but in the sister as well. In
deed, she was the most attractive per-
son he had ever before met. To his
mind she was everything that woman
should be. Wealthy, educated and af-
fectionate, she was brave and roman
tic enough to venture out alone and
battle the cold world for the purpose
of redeeming her hayward brother
So gentle and unassuming did she ap-
pear that he was sure she had a
heart overlooking with love.
AS these thoughts came meandering
through his brain he saw in his eager
ness the opportunity of his life. He
would somehow be instrumental in
saving the brother and thus win the
fair girls perhaps her love
He felt sure that he could trust to her
generous heart to forgive him for de-
ceiving her by palming himself of as
the son of nobleman.
When the couple arrived in Boston
they went at once to the United States
hotel, where they took breakfast to-
gether. The detective now thought
Miss Brownie more fascinating than
ever and at the first opportunity he
threw discretion to the winds and be-
gan wooing in the most approved
Italian style. Pressing his suit with
an ardor more impetuous than con-
ventional, he begged her to become
his wife.
1t appears that her deep sorrow,
her soft words, and above all. her
tears, had quite bewildered him. Real
beauty in distress vas too much for
the -blooded Latin, and he sur

as kind hearted as he was enterprl-
sing, and upon the impulse of the mo-
ment he pushed himself to the front
ana with the politest of French bows,
said: please excuse me, young lady,
1 am very much panied to witness
your distress, and should be glad to
assist you. If you will allow me l
think can procure you a stateroom."
In modest tones she thanked him
for his kindness and confidingly Of
fered him the ten dollar bill that had
been returned to her by the chamber
maid.
Never mind the money until l
know what can do for you"
He thereupon went below. The
sister, he thought. is not responsible
for the sins of her brother; besides,
the making of her acquaintance might
give him better opportunity for dis
covering the whereabouts of the man
he was seeking. In his imagination
he was sure that she was going to
meet him.
This was his opportunity, thought
he. He would ingratiate himself into
the good graces of this young woman
and II possible learn the whereabouts
of her brother.
The oily-tongued detective had no
great difficulty in securing the coveted
prize. Steamboat clerks are always
wise enough to reserve an extra ticket

The detectives heart was throbbing
wildly. He could scarcely contain
himself. 1t was a case of love at first
sight. The hot blood of the italian
was surging to his head. He was quite
bewildered.
Collecting his scattered senses he
was soon able to convince the young
woman that he was a man of conse-
quence, and that while their meeting
was but casual, he was greatly de-
lighted because of the opportunity Of
fered to make her acquaintance.

Even though his representations in
