MUST SWEAR TO AGE.

The reduction of freight and pas
senger rates OH the railroads some
time ago resulted in retaliation al
along the line by the railroads, and
one of the topics to come under the
official microscope was that of child
age to come under the "free" or the
'half fare" rates.
Many a child has been passed I'M
der the ''free list" or the "half fare"
by the insistent demands of an irate
mother when the conductor was sat
istied withself that ali injustice was
being done the railroad company, but
rather than have scene on the train
he let the matter drop.
But now all this is changed. When
you declare child'S age now, you
will be confronted with a written
statement of age, etc, in the nature
of an affidavit. This is in compliance
with an interstate commerce law that
children over five years of age must
not be carried free and that children
over twelve years cannot be carried
as half fare. The affidavit, it will be
seen, clears the railroad company of
all responsibility.

Cunningham Drew Out a Check Book
and Asked Her How Much Money
She Needed.
Il only want you to do the things best
for you to do
I'm goingw June suddenly decided.
The iron man bowed. There was no
CLINT in his metallic eye, no smile on
his unbending lips
June, followed by Mrs. Willard, sailed
through the magnificent reception room
and into the hall. Blye and his COM
panions followed them.
At that moment Ned Warmers taxi
cab drew up in front of the Bond Sc
curities building, and close behind 1t
came the electric of Honoria Blye, that
lady driving it herself, bolt upright.
June darted into the first elevator.
and her pursuers crowded Ill after her
Mrs. Wizard put an arm around June
in corner of the elevator, and there
were tears in her eyes as she talked
TO the distracted girl. 1t was that
which brought sympathy to June. 1t
was her greatest weakness. sympathy
and by the time they reached gne
ground floor she had consented to Te-
turn to Pinknam's with Mrs. Willard.
She would not talk to the others, how
ever, and they very wisely held their
peace.
AS they emerged on the main floor,
however, Cunningham turned to her
with twinkling joviality in his eyes
and, leaning over, whispered something
into her ear just as she was about to
step into the adjoining upward bound
elevator.
At that very instant Ned Warner
strobe into the rOtunda, closely follow
ed by Honoria Blye. He saw his beau
tiful bride i'll the company of the black
Vandyked man, who was watching her
with that suave smile upon his dark,
handsome face, while a debonair
white muStached man bent over her
Familiarity and whispered in her ear.
He saw June blush; he saw her step
back; then the lady with her drew her
into the elevator. Blye and the others
crowded after her, and as Ned raced
vengefully through the corridor, with
the shrieking Honoria behind him, tho
door closed with a bang. and the car
shot upward.
They rushed into the next car. Ned
black browed and silent and the shrill
Honoria jabbering necessarily. The
car had scarcely started to move when
a sudden idea came to Ned, and he
turned to Mrs. Blye with the first
words he had spoken to her.
1--WE might miss them" he snapped.
"They may have seen us and not 60 10
the office you named. I'll go back
down and wait"
AS they left the elevator at the
eleventh floor the door of a down car
changed. If Ned had got out at the
first stop, which was the ninth floor,
he would have caught that down car.

her father and mother! How she long
ed for them. How she wished they
had found her. And great food OF
love surged up in her. She must see
them! She must go to them at once!
She must give up this foolish flight for
a romantic ideal and be just girl, and
return to her own people, and be pet
ted and forgiven, and be clasped in
Ned's strong arms, never to leave them
again! She rose with wild impulse
to hurry straight after them, but her
knees bent under her She had not
known how much this sudden emotion
had taken away her strength The
Widow O'Keefe pressed her tenderly
back in her chair, and Sammy held
glass to her lips and spilled trickle
of water on her chin. She smiled at
them both. for she was very fond of
them; then the widow drove Sammy
from the room and put June on the. bed.
and took off her little shoes, and drew
the blinds, and left her alone to cry it
out And the Widow O'Keefe rasped
her own eyes with lumpy knuckles as
she closed the door.
June sat suddenly bolt upright and
dried her eyes and hunted for her
shoes How bare everything looked in
the room! Why, everything was gone!
And where was Marie?
Marie had just turned the corner of
Officer Dowd's post when there came
swiftly toward her family limousine
which she remembered with jump in
her breast.
Suddenly there was loud yelp of
joy from handsome collie sitting be-
side the driver, and Bouncer, who new
er left his seat when in the city, was
halfway to the curb in one spring
With shrek Marie headed for the
nearest alley, Bouncer barking happily
at her heels.
Five voices yelled for Jerry to stop,
but it was unnecessary. That good
chauffeur had used both brakes. and
the Moores, the Bletherings and Ned
Warner all tried to crowd out of the
door. While the agitated Bobby block
ed the doorway Ned rushed after Ma
RE, but he suddenly found himself
breastbone to breastbone with Officer
Dowd
Excuse me- said Officer Dowd. still
breasting him. WAS it you or me
that's in the road?"
II want to speak to that young wo-
mani" And Ned tried to pass around
Officer Dowd as that young woman
accompanied by the leaping Bouncer,
turned swiftly into a narrow alley.
The last flash of her was a red and
white striped stocking.
Officer Dowd was at this moment one
Of the most awkward men on the
force. He had tried TO shove around
Ned, and now they met again, breast
bone to breastbone.
Get out of my wayp' yelled Ned.

DOwd.
''She was a servant of NINE" said

Did she steal anything?' demanded
Dowd

Then its none or my business"
And Officer Dowd looked toward the
alley with twinkle dawning in his
eye. Marie knew every turn and twist
within ten blocks of the Corners. go
on and speak to the lady"
They went down to the alley mouth
and looked in. There was wilder
ness of crooked byways and no Marie
visible.
Where to, sir?" asked Jerry.

TIL June received the great shock
of her life Blye offered her a trip on
private yacht. He had a photo of it
with him. She gasped in amazement
and refused it.
Then Cunningham drew out a check

she needed. Junes cheeks paled. She
burst into the Office where Mrs. Willard
sat with the iron Pinknam

But more than that. He would have
come face to face with June and the

In the taxi with June, she gave a sharp
direction to the driver. Don't you

companions.
The tormentors laughed and walked
forward TO Blye's car.
Uptown ON busy Broadway sped
June and Mrs. Willard. and by the time
they had reached Columbus circle
June's suspicious of Mrs. Willard were

taxi passed it rolled out and followed.
In it sat June's determined purSuerS,
and on the dark, handsome face Of
Gilbert Blye was again that suave
smile. June turned chill with nervous
apprehension.
Gilbert Blye was enjoying that chase
immensely. and he watched the weav-

suave smile.
Suddenly ,Blye leaned forward with
an oath. aeSl there was a Shrek from
the vivacious brunette. Something
seemed to be wrong with the steering
wheel CT the taxi, for, as it went up the
hill ahead of them, it wabbled to and
fro uncertainty. dangerously near the
crumbling bank which was protected
by a fiimsy rail, and there was a curve
ahead.
There was a cry of horror from them
all as the taxi at the curve ran up the
embankment. paused at the brink for
a moment and then with its precious
burden inside crashed through the rail
and plunged down the hill!
