kind hearted actress who befriendet
a poor little waif, of the street. sooT
grew to love the child When she went
On the road she found him home witt
her old nurse. She realized how much
the child meant to her when he wds
crippled in an accident, for as soon IS
she heard the news she gave up he,
position and hurried to his side. Tho
child loved her, too, and she finally
decided to abandon the stage and Sc.
cure a business position. The actress
had fair knowledge of stenography
and typewriting, brushed up on it
and was engaged on trial by house
on Broadway, New York.
On the day she took up her new du-
ties, city officials had arranged for a
fire drill on an extensive scale, but
the new employee did not know of it
When the fire alarm sounded and the
engines clattered up, she was badly
frightened and hardly able to follow
the others who went out unconcerned-
ly. On the street, her terror was mo-
ticed by a handsome young fireman
who treasured her by telling her i:
was only a drill"
Later the young fireman and the
former actress met; the fireman invit-
ed the girl to go rowing on the river
and she accepted, leaving her little
protege in the care of her nurse
Through this woman's carelessness the
house caught fire, and the woman ran
out, shrieking with fear, forgetting
the child, helpless. Fortunately the
girl and the fireman were not far
away. The man rowed hastily to the
shore, and although the house was by
this time all ablaze. he bravely battle !
his way in and rescued the chilli,
thereby securely winning the affections
of the girl he had learned to dearly
love.
