The Woman Who Keeps on Trying.
They put on the tombstone OF a Mas
sachusetts woman. she tried to do
what she couldn't" The epitaph might
be considered humorous. but read In
another light it seems to point to a
splendid quality in character.
Pride often keeps a woman toiling
and thinking beyond her strength for
the benefit of others. She refuses to
surrender Her life means nothing to
her except as ii is given day by day
10 those she loves For them she
makes a continual sacrifice and denies
herself and takes up her cross. She
does not tell all she feels and knows.
She has learned to suffer In silence
and to communicate her joy. The
sympathy Of such a woman counts.
for. like Dido of Carthage centuries
ago. she has been through tribulation
herself. and therefore she knows how
to be the comfort and the stay OF 9th
ers
The woman who continues to do her
best In adversely inspires others.
though she may not know it. She is
as a shining beacon set on q hill in
the darkness of other lives. They ar
que that, as she is strong and brave
and not TO be defeated, what woman
has done woman can do. Even though
It should cease to be worth while to
try on ones own account, II is always
worth while to perseyere for the sake
OF those who might give up IL we sur
rendered.

The Masters Man.


vroon faced Hargreave's butler som
berly. The one reason why Braine
made this man his lieutenant was be-
cause Vroon always followed the let.
ter of his instructions to the final pc.
Rod; he never sidestepped or added
any frills or innovations of his own.
and because of this very automatism
he rarely blundered into trap. II
he failed it was for the simple fact
that the master mind had overlooked
some essential detail. The organiza-
ton Of the Black Hundred was almost
totally unknown to either the public
or the police. 1t Is only when you fail
that you are found out.
1.-THE patrolman has been trussed up
like you," began Vroon. "If they find
him they will probably find you. But
before that you will grow thirsty and
hungry. Where did your master put
that money!"
"He carried it with him."
why didn't you call for help?"
1.-THE houses on either side are too
far away. 1 might yell till doomsday
without being heard. They will have
heard the pistol shots; but Mr.. Har-
greaves was always practicing in the
backyard"

What he took to the bottom of the sea

Vroon nodded. "Come, men; It is
time we took ourselves OF. Put things
IN order; close the safe. You poor
1ackals. I always have to watch you
Tor outbreaks of vandalism. or with
you'll"
He was the last to leave. He stared
long and searchingly at Jones, who
felt the burning gaze but refused to
meet 1t lest the plotter see the fire In
his. The door closed. For fully an
hour Jones listened cbut did not stir.
They were really gone. He pressed

Stanley Hargreave, millionaire, af-
ter a miraculous escape from the den

as the Black Hundred, lives the life
of a recluse for eighteen years. Har-
greave accidentally meets Braine,

ing Braine will try to get him, he es-
capes from his own home by q balloon.
Before escaping he writes q letter to
the girls school where eighteen years

That day Hargreave also draws ST.
