the Howells. There he attempts to force
his attentions on her, and at this point
Evelyn Howell walks in. Infuriated
with jealousy, she drives Helen from the
house, just before Temple Bane arrives
to look out for Helen.
With malicious spite, Lyle tells him
that Helen has been driven out because
she tried to force her love upon him.
Temple attacks him in fury and Lyle
strikes him over the head with can
delabrum, binding him.
Helen is called in to nurse the injured
man, and he is drawn to her by her gem
tie ministrations, not knowing her iden-
tity. because she hides it under the
name of Miss Brown. Then he regains
his sight, recognizes Helen and repu-

In the meantime Lyle has gone to
France to atone for his actions, and is
killed in action. His part in restoring
Temples confidence in the woman he
loves and bringing happiness to them
both forms an amazing conclusion.
