To prevent possible trip TO the hos
pital or Morgue the bluecoat decided to
let Dale rest in the police station. But
before the bluecoat got within talking dis
tance Frank encountered n small boy
with home made wheelbarrow. II is
possible that Franks eyes were in mag
nifying condition. No one knows. At
any rate he evidently mlstoolt the juvenile
vehicle for his auto, for he dropped In II
and told the boy to take him to n down
town hotel. The youngster enjoyed the
joke, and in order that his passenger
would have something to pass the time
away gave him stick OF candy to eat.
The ride ended when one of the wheels
came off the barrow. Dale expressed his
regret, and to check the boys tears
handed him dollar TO get the barrow
repaired. The cop finally caught up with
Dale and brought him to the police sta
tIon to keep him from squandering all
his money. And he had quite a roll.
On meeting Magistrate Watson, the
prisoner was extremely polite.
81 told my chauffeur to take me out"
he said 80 that | could escape from my
wife. She has been fussing about with
n rolling pin the last two days and it's
annoying, to say the least. Ever have
your wife hit you with q rolling pn?''
The Judge admitted that he never had
such an interesting experience.
AS there was no definite charge against
Dale he was permitted to pursue his
chauffeur after he had sobered.

In this delightful Fine Arts picture.
Marthas best friend. Dorothea loves not
wisely but too well. To help her Martha
takes her off to the country for a long
visit, and when the baby arrives takes
the child to her old nurse. While taking
the infant to its future home she Is seen
with the baby by an old scoundrel Sol

what unpleasant gentleman finds new
baby boy who was left that afternoon and
decides 1t was the one he had seen in
Martha's arms.
Years pass and Dorothea has married
deacon of the church and is n happy wife
and mother. Martha gets evidence against
the baby farm and II is raided by the
police. Martha adopts the child that Sell
Hawkins thinks is hers.
He, seeking revenge. goes to the min.
lister of the church and accuses Martha.
The minister calls n committee, consisting
of the deacon and his wife Dorothca, and
they call on Martha to present the
charges Martha, bound by her promise
to Dorothea never to reveal her secret,
refuses TO answer their questions. Doro.
thea has not sufficient courage to confess.
Martha Is summoned to public trial at
the church.
Here. in n terribly exciting and harrow
