THE THREE LINKS
BY RICHARD OULZ.
(Continued.)

! A sumptuous cement-block mansion
stood near the forest in which dwelt
an honorable merchant and family.
The merchants beautiful daughter
was engaged TO young gentleman,
who had recently fallen heir TO vast
sum OF money when his late uncle
was suddenly taken by death.
Meryl Brantford, the manly suitor.
sought the love OF Cleo Pinehurst, the
merchants daughter, soon after he
rescued her from the jaws OF death.
One night, as usual, when Meryl
Brantford and Cleo Pinehurst were
having their peaceful chat both
planned 10 go horseback riding
through the dense forest that lay be-
yond the Pinehurst dwelling, the next
day
Bright and early the next morning
Meryl came 10 call on Cleo. all IN
trim as sutton should be. Putting
spurs TO their horses. they were on
toward the inlet OF the forest. Rid
ing through the forest peacefully, an
accident befell the horse Cleo rode.
The horse stepped into deep hole
and broke his leg. throwing Cleo to
the ground. AS Cleo fell her head
struck a large stone, knocking her
unconscious Meryl was stunned as
be saw her fall from the horse, but
soon regaining his mind, he immedi-
ately sprang from his horse.
Taking Cleo in his arm, stream
OF blood blotted his coat sleeve. on
seeing this he was shocked. but bear
ing things like a man, he quickly took
his handkerchief out OF his coat
pocket and bound her head. Slowly
releasing her head onto blanket, he
fastened TO the nearest stream of wa
ter. Returning exhausted. Meryl
bathed her head TO restore conscious
ness Finally his heart throhbea=Mith
joy 10 see cleo reyiving. AS her blue
eyes caught glimpses Of Meryl. she
said with quivering lips:
"Oh, M-e-ry-l, is that you? Where
have | been?"
AS Meryl was about 10 lift her head
from the blanket, his eyes caught
sight of a blood-stained metal trinket
lying among the weeds, which he
showed to Cleo. Not having her right
mind at this instant. she merely
gazed at il saying, May have it?"
Thrusting the trinket in her coat
pocket, he seated Cleo on his horse
and made haste for the Pinehurst
home. Reaching Cleo's home physi-
clan was called, who examined her
head, saying that she had narrowly
escaped death.
Next morning, as Cleo's maid was
putting away the suit she wore while
riding. a shining metal object dropped
to the floor She picked II up and
gave IL TO Cleo, who turned the shin
ing metal over a few times, and
found il To be three links and made
OF gold Giving them a thorough ex-
animation she saw small curious let
tiers engraved in the inside, which she
made out as follows; tx yb-Z-C

Cleo quickly called her mother. Az
Mrs. Pinehurst spied the links. she
Immediately asked for explanations.
Cleo explained how Meryl found ii In
the woods as he was about TO pick
her off the ground. Her mother said:

The story is one OF intense dramatic in

posed faith-healing powers Of vener-
able patriarch of the Maine woods. The
scheme is fostered by one Madison. a
shrewd 'get-r;ch-quick'' individual. who
has as his lieutenants a fakir. who poses
as an BILE cripple, a dope fiend.
and a young girl with whom Madison is
in love. The girls part in the scheme
is TO pose as a long-lost niece of the
patriarch, while the fake cripple is to be
cured" in the presence of large
crowd. thus giving advertising to the
powers of the patriarch.
The scheme works admirably at first.
