soon was convalescing. Everyday he

go back to the company.

modern romance shrouded in mys-
terry.
When one very obnoxious sutton
persisted in his unWe1come attentions
she fed to her country home alone.
Instead of the kindly old lodge keeper
she found two tramps who had taken
possession of the home to escape a
riotous night storm.
Diana was, holding the little house
against the siege of the ruthless
tramps when Dick Webster happened

What he did and how he did it is

must see to have seen Edith Roberts
