There was a rebellious fire in the
girls eyes as she left her father that
showed him the affair had gone fur
Their than he had supposed. Mr.. Worth
ington was not man to give an
order without taking pains to insure
its being carried out. He did not sit
down calmly, relying upon his daugh-
ter, on reflection, obeying him, nor
did he assume that If she persisted
In her infatuation he could prevent
her. He hired detective to watch Mr..
Deane and report to him if the actor
were ever again seen in Mabel's com
pany, after which drastic measures
would be taken.
1t was not long before the detective
reported that Deane and Miss Worth
ington were seen sitting side by side
at matinee. The meeting was re-
ported to the banker, who told his
daughter that he had heard of her dis
obedience to his order and if she de-
fed him again he would send her
away where she would have no OPP
portunity to see the actor. A clandes-
tine meeting took place soon after
this, in which Mabel told her lover of
her fathers threat. which she knew
he would make good.
The same evening she had an inter

Deane to fulfill his orders. If the play

own responsibility, and her father
must call him and not her to account
for such action. This was something
of relief to the parent, who would
rather deal with a man than a wom-
an, even If that woman were his own
daughter. He did not doubt that
Mabel would assist her lover rather
than her father in any contest that
might arise between the two, but he
considered himself match for both.
Within fortnight his detective re-
ported that the lovers had been seen
together. Mr.. Worthington spoke to
his daughter about the matter and
asked her If it We're true. She replied
that, as she had informed him, he must

Little Things That Expose the Fraud
to Handwriting Experts.
Forgery has great attraction to a
certain element of the criminal world.
Some are 50 skillful in this line of
work as to get past the most eagle
eyed bank teller, but always when the
microscope is brought into play it Is
possible to detect the fraud. or, II not
the microscope, then more modern
testing appliances are used.
Here is secret divulged by q man
who has made study Of handwriting:.
No person ever yet wrote his name
twice alike. In some small or big de-
tail one signature always differs from
another. Therefore when the same
mans name appears twice alike-as it
does In the course Of business events.
when the forger gets after little
easy cotn-there must be Il matter of
tracing. 1t stands to reason that the
exact fac simile of the one has been
gained by the overlap or tracing proc

ways noticeable to the practiced eye n
cramping movement or IL radical de-
parture from the way in which the
name should be written. Such small
thing as the particular position of the
dot above the H." for instance, will
reveal forgery or the crossing Of the
It" or the shading of ND or down
strokes. A man will overlook the fact
that the name he Is writing when
written by its owner always leaves
the straight line at certain letter
and returns on another certain letter.
Some business men place after their
signatures on checks period. some Il
comma. some IL rough star. others
short or long dash. making the genu.

upon this slight characteristic than the
