n thrilling mystery story about a
man who lost his courage and the
girl who helped him to find it again

Perhaps never In his TWENTY-FIVE
years had young Drummond been 20
near thrashing. Fury that he was
ashamed Of shook LIE Moyne. For
very fear Of himself. he thrust his
hands In the pockets Of his Norfolk
coat.
"very WELL" he said. You 60 to her
with just one Of these ugly inslnua-
lions, and I'll take mighty good care
that you are sorry for 1t. II you are
going to behave like bad child, you
deserve q licking. and I'll give it to
you"
An overflow from the parlor poured
out on the porch. LIE Moyne had got
himself in hand somewhat. He was
still angry, but the look in Joe's eye
startled him. He put q hand ON the
boys shoulder.
you're wrong, old man." he' said.
"You're insulting the girl you care for
by the things you are thinking. And,
II it's any comfort to yous I have no
intention Of interfering In any way.
You can count me out. It's between
you and her."
Joe picked his straw hat from a
chair and stood turning 1t in his hands

do know she isn't crazy about your"

"She sends you notes to McKees'."
aust to clear the air. I'll show it to
you. It's no breach of confidence. It's
about the hospital"
Into the breast pocket Of his coat he
dived and brought up a wallet. The
wallet had had a name on 1t In gilt let
tiers that had been carefully scraped
off. But Joe did not wait to see the
note.
"Oh, damn the hospital" he said
and went swiftly down the steps and
into the gathering twilight Of the June

to discard old creeds and old morali-
ties-that was his game. Wilson be-
came content, interested again. The girl
was Undetermined. She challenged
his philosophy and gave him a chance
to defend, it. With the conviction, as
their meal went on, that LIE Moyne
and his companion must surely have
gone, she gained ease.
1t was only by wild driving that she
got back to the hospital by ten o'clock.
Wilson left her at the corner, well
content with himself. As he drove up
the Street he glanced across at the
Page house. Sidney was there on the
doorstep, talking to a tall man who
stood below and looked up at her
Wilson settled his tie, in the darkness
Sidney was a mighty pretty girl. The
June night was in his blood. He was
sorry he had not kissed Carlotta good
night. He rather thought, now he
looked back, she had expected it.
AS he got out of his car at the curb,
a young man who had been standing in
the shadow Of the treebox moved
quickly away.
Wilson smiled after him in the dark
ness.
THAT you, JOEY" he called.
But the boy went on.
Sidney entered the hospital az pro-
bationer early in August. Christine
was to be married in September to
Palmer Howe, and, with Harriet and
X. In the house, she felt that she could
safely leave her mother.
The balcony outside the parlor was
already under way. On the night be-
fore she went away Sidney took chairs
out there and sat with her mother I'M
til the dew drove Anna to the lamp
in the sewing room and her DAILY
Thoughts reading.
Sidney sat alone and viewed her
world from this new and pleasant
angle. She could see the garden and
the whitewashed fence with its morn
ing glories, and at the same time, by
turning her head, view the Wilson
house across the Street. She looked
mostly at the Wilson house.
K. LIE Moyne was upstairs in his
room. She could hear him tramping
up and down, and catch, occasionally,
the bitter-sweet odor Of his old brier
pipe.

CHAPTER VII.

Sidney and K. LIE Moyne were din

made her eyes shine like stars. She
saw only the magnolia tree shaped like
a heart, the terrace edged with low
shrubbery, and beyond the faint CLEAN
that was the river. The unshaded glare
of the lights behind her in the house
was eclipsed by the crescent edge of
the rising moon. Dinner was over. Sid

of after-dinner coffee.
LIE Moyne. grave and contained, sat
across from her. To give SO much
pleasure. and SO easilyl How young
she was, and RADIANT No wonder the
boy was mad about her. She fairly
held out her arms to life.
All, that was too badl Another
table was being brought they were not
to be alone. But what reused In him
violent resentment only appealed to
Sidney's curiosity.
Carlotta Harrison came out alone,
Although the tapping of her heels was
dulled by the grass, although she had
exchanged her cap for the black hat,
Sidney knew her at once. A sort Of
thrill ran over her. It was the pretty
nurse from Doctor Wilson's Office. Was
1t possible-but of course not! The
book Of rules stated explicitly that such
things were forbidden.
Don't turn around" she said swift
ly. ut is the Miss Harrison told you
about. She Is looking at u.s."
Carlotta's eyes were blinded for q
moment by the glare of the house

in her dreams. This man was older.
much older. She looked again.
She had not been mistaken. Here.
and after all these months! K. LIE
Moyne, quite unconscious of her pres
ence, looked down into the valley.
Wilson appeared on the wooden
porch above the terrace, and stood, his
eyes searching the half-light for her,

"Your wish In my law-tonight," he
said softly.
After all, the evening was a disap-
pointment to him. The spontaneity had
gone out Of 1t, for some reason. The
girl who had thrilled to his glance
those two mornings in his office, whose
somber eyes had met his, fire for fire,
across the operating room, was not
playing up. She sat back in her chair,
eating little, starting at every step. Her
eyes, which by every rule of the game
should have been gazing into his, were
fixed ON the oilcloth-covered passage
outside the door.

GREAT INTEREST
IN THE REVIVAL
REV. e. F. FRAZIER is ONE OF THE
BEST PREACHERS EVER
HEARD HERE.

The revival at the First Methodist
church grows in interest and power
daily DR.. B. F. Frazier, who is as
sisting the pastor, Rev. l.. j. Ballard
in this revival campaign, is doing
some very fine work in the preach
ing of the old-time gospel in very
plain and yet powerful manner.
Sunday was a great day in the his
tory of the First Methodist church, as
well as in the life of all who We're
present during the delivery of these
soul-stirirng sermons. The services
for men only Sunday afternoon were
far beyond anything seen in the city
in a long while. A great concourse
of men and boys flocked to give the
preacher their hand after the sermon
and to assure him by the doing that
they were going to lead better and
different lives.
At night, as we'll as yesterday morn
ing and last night large congrega-
tions were present and the services
were very helpful indeed. Those who
are missing these sermons are missing
a rare treat This afternoon at 3:3C
there will be a sermon for women
only" This is no effort to work uL
anything sensational. This preacher
feels that he has a message for the
mothers, wives, sisters and sweet
hearts of this city, and this afternoon
at $50 he desires to deliver this mes
sage
Services tonight and tomorrow a;
10 o'clock Tomorrow afternoon a
8, 30 there will be a great rally of the
children and young people. This is
another opportunity for the young
life of the city.

the train leaving this city and was
used by the funeral party to New
York. The body arrived in that city
at 2:30 yesterday afternoon and was
borne to the Fifth avenue home. The
sad tragedy has cast a shadow of
gloom over the millionaire colony al
Jekyl, where the young man was
well known and popular. He had
been on the island for a month, and
when the Gould cottage was closed
several days ago, had moved to the
club house.
Although young Gould possessed a
number of handsome guns, it was
an old Scott double-barrel hammer
gun which cost him his life. He had
on the island a new automatic, a
pump repeating gun, and a handsome
double-barrel hammerless, but still it
was this old Scott hammer gun with
which he learned to shoot, and it
was his favorite among the lot He
had often been warned against walk
ing through the woods with the gun
cooked
The theory has been advanced that
at the time the two huntsmen found
the coon in the trap, Gould had his
gun cooked, and, in striking, he hit
the trap, and the shock caused the
explosion Of the gun. The end of the
barrel was so close to his body that
the entire load of bird shot entered
as if it was one large bullet
Mrs. Gould, who was expected on
Jekyl in few days, was detained in
New York on account of the illness
of her mother She was notified of
the accident late Sunday, when the
father telegraphed her that he was
en- route to New York with the dead
body Young Gould was educated by
tutors, and had planned to enter the
practice of law in New York He
was popular, and made a number of
friends on his trip to Jekyl.
Whether or not the Gould family
will return to Jekyl for the remain
der of the winter is not yet known.

LOCAL DEALERS
PRICE WORRIED
FOOD SCARCITY CAUSING SOME
SERIOUS TROUBLE IN
BRUNSWICK.

Growing scarcity of food supplies at
soaring prices has reached a stage
in this city to cause local dealers
grave concern and fears of serious
consequences from the enlargng crisis

pies expected to be eliminated en-
tirely from the market in the near
future, only one commodity holds it's
own in plentiful supply at prices sta
tionary with that of year ago. The
one commodity is rice selling around
s 1-3 cents pound. Because of the
custom of retailing to buy for a whole
season under contract. cane syup, de
