SYNOPSIS.

Stanley Hargreave. millionaire, after a
miraculous escape from the den of the
gang OF brilliant thieves known as the
Black Hundred, lives the life OF a recluSe
sfor eighteen years. Hargreave accidental
ly meets Braine, leader Of the Black Hun
dred. knowing Braine will try TO- get
. him. he escapes from his own home by d
letter to the girls school. where eighteen
years before he mysteriously left on the
doorstep his baby daughter. Florence
Gray. That day Hargreave also draws
one million dollars from the bank. but II
is reported that this dropped into the sea,
when the balloon he escaped in was pune
tured. Florence arrives from the girls
school. Countess Olga. Braine's compan-
Ion, visits her and claims to be a rela-
tive. Two bogus detectives call, but their
plot is foiled by Norton. a newspaper
man. After falling in their first attempt
the Black Hundred trap Florence. They
ask her for money, but she escapes. Nor
ton and the countess call on Florence the
next day. once more safe at home. The

front and succeeds in dropping the box
into the sea. Jones and Norton save
Florence from being imprisoned In a
country house to which she Is lured. Flor

roadside. Norton rescues her. Countess
Olga. scheming to break the engagement
now existing between Florence Hargreave
and Norton, invites them both to her
apartments and pretends to faint In the
reporters arms. Florence appears In the
doorway Just at the planned moment. and
as a result gives Norton back his ring.

1T is only a matter Of a few days."
But can the child stand the ter.

that they may not really drive her in

On board the George Washington
every one felt extremely sorTT for this
beautiful girl. 1t was a frightfnl mis-
fortune to be so stricken at her age.

Of the passengers, who had known

ing business. "Hargreave wasn't mar
ried. He lived alone" .
After the second day out Florence
was permitted to wander about the
ship al she pleased.
A good many of the passengers were
nightly worried when they learned
that the wireless had in some mysteri-
GUS way been tempered with after the
boat had made the open sea. 1t was
impossible to put about. The appara-
tus must be fixed at sea- " .
And when finally Norton's wireless
caught the wires Of the George Wash,
ington he vas gravely informed that
the young lady referred to had leaped
the rail off the Banks at night and had
been drowned. She had not been
missed till the following morning.

lures of two registered physicians are
affixed to the document. 1t does not
say that these physicians shall have
been proved reputable.
There were, besides the physicians,
a motherly looking woman and a man
Of benign countenance. Their faces
were valuable assets. To gain an.
other persons confidence is, perhaps,
among the greatest human achieve-
ments. A confidence man and woman
in the real sense Of the word. In your
minds eye you could e this man
carrying the contribution plate down
the aisle on Sunday mornings, and his
wife Kate putting her mite on the
plate for the benefit Of some poor, un-
tidy Hottentot.
On Tuesday of the following week
Florence and Susan went shopping.
The chauffeur was a strong young fell
low whom Jones relied upon. If you
pay a man we'll and hold out fine
promises, You generally can trust him.
AS their car left the corner another
followed leisurely. This second auto

mobile contained Thomas Wendt and
his wife Kate. The two young women
stopped at the great dry goods shop
near the public library. and for the
time being naturally forgot everything
but the marvels which had come from
all parts of the world. It is as natural
for a woman to buy as it is for a mar
to sell.
In some manner or other Florence
became separated from Susan. She
hunted through aisle after aisle, but
could not find her; for the simple rea-
son that Susan was hunting for her. 1t
occurred to the girl that Susan might
have wisely concluded the best place
to wait would be in the taxicab. And
so Florence hurried out into the street,
into the arms Of the Wendt family,
who we're patiently awaiting her.
The trusted chauffeur had been sent
around to the side entrance by the
major domo. The young lady had so
requested, SO he said.
Florence struggled and called for
the policeman, who came running up,
followed. by the usual idle, curious
crowd.
1.-The poor young woman IL insane"
said the motherly Kate, tears in her
eyes. The benign Thomas looked at
heaven. We are her keepers"
1T Is not true!" cried Florence des-
psrately.
"She has the ha~llucination that she
is the daughter Of the millionaire
Stanley Hargreave." And Thomas e

peculiar remedy, but a man named
Trotter, who was given up to die by
his physician, has outlived the doctor.
Trotter was Of a jolly disposition,
and kept on his feet and out of doors
a large part of his time, but it finally
became only a question Of days, and
was SO recognized by the sick man
and all his friends. About this time
an epidemic of measles broke out In
the neighborhood, and as Trotter had
v had the disease the doctor ad-
vised him to leave the locality, as to
contract 1t would surely kill him.

hearing the case against the Puritan,
was trying to make fun Of the old

shake her head with frowning eyes.
Her main diversion consisted of sitting
on the sand dunes and gazing out at
sea.
One day a stranger came to town.
He said he represented a life insur-
ance company and was up here from
Boston to take a little vacation. He
sat on the hotel porch that evening,
surrounded by an admiring audience.
The stranger had been all over the
world, so it seemed. He spoke famil-
iarly Of st. Petersburg, Vladivostok,
Shanghai, as the villagers-some of
them-might have spoken Of Boston.
There were one or two old timers
among the audience. They had been
to all these parts. The stranger knew
what he was telling about. After tell
ing of his many voyages he asked II
there was a good bathing beach near
by. He was told that he would find
the most suitable spot near Captain
Barnes cottage just outside the vii
lage.

Missing young woman? What's
that?"

hibited his document, which was per-
fectly legal, SO far as appearances
went.
Hurry up and get her off the walk.
I can't have the crowd growing any
larger" said the policeman, convinced.
So, despite her cries and protesta-
lions, Florence was hustled into the
automobile, even the policeman lend
ing a hand.
Poor young thing!" he said to the
crowd. Come, now, move on. can't
have the walk blocked up. Get a gait
on you,
He was congratulatiag himself upon
the orderliness Of the affair when a
keen-eyed young man in the garb of a
chauffeur touched his shoulder.
whats this I hear about an insane
woman?" he demanded. .
"She was insane, all right. They had
papers to prove it. She kept crying
that she was Stanley Hargreave's
daughter" o..
"My God" The young man struck
his forehead in despair. "You ass, she
was Stanley Hargreaye's daughter,
and they've kidnapped her right under
your nose! What was the number of
that car"
"Cut out that line of talk, young fell
lab; l know my business. They had
the proper Documents"
But you hadn't brains enough to in
quire whether they were genuine or
not! You wait!" shrilled the chauf-
feur. I'll have you broken for this
work" He wheeled and ran back to
his car, to find Susan and the countess
in a great state of agitation. "They
got her, they got her! And swore
on the book that they eve should, SO
long as I drove the car"
Susan wept, and the countess tried
In vain to console her.
And when Jones was informed he
frightened even the countess with the
snarl of rage which burned across his
lips. He tore into the hall, seized his
hat, and was gone. Not a word Of re-
proach did he offer to the chauffeur.
He understood that no n is infallible.
He found the laundering policeman,
who now realized that he stood in for
a Whit of the commissioners carpet.
All he could do was to give a good de-
scription of the man and woman. Word
was sent broadcast through the city.
The police had to be informed this
time.
Late in the day an officer whose beat
included the ferry landing at Hoboken
said he had seen the three. Everything
had looked all right to him. 1t was
the motherly face Of the one and the
benign countenance Of the other that
had blinded him.
At midnight Jones, haggard and
with the air Of one beaten, returned
home.
"No wireless YETI" asked Norton.

Man Afflicted With Tuberculosis and

If the doctors have given you up
to die of tuberculosis, don't do it, but
go and get a dose of'the measles, and
when you have recovered from the
combination you will not have any
tuberculosis, and will be as likely to
outlive the doctor as he will be TO

other one, he persisted in remaining a
we'll man, and outliVed the doctor and
nearly all his neighbors. 1t would be
a heroic remedy for a mar given up
to die to seek, but Trotter's philos-
ophy proved to have a better founda-
ton than that Of the doctor who had
done all that his education and ex.
p%erience enabled him to do.

"A Sound Box"

Take an ordinary rubber band and
stretch 1t between the thumb and fore
finger of your left hand. If you pick
1t with the fingers Of the right hand
and let go suddenly 1t will make a
sound which you can hear distinctly
enough yourself, but which will not be
audible to any one few feet away.
But II you were to fasten the elastic,
with a pin at each end. to an empty
wooden box, only not so as to touch
the wood. and then twang II the sound
would be much louder than before.
That box is the sound box, or sound
board, and all stringed instruments
have one In some shape or other.-St
Nicholas.
