The people of North Fort Worth
were indeed delighted to be enter
tanned Monday night at Thompson
Chapel church, Rev. Brown, pastor,
with concert rendered by the Sam

only objection was that the church
was too small for the crowd. There
was large number of white friends
present. Miss Della Hartford left
Fort Worth for Kansas City, Mo-,
last Saturday and also left her money
for her Express to be sent to her.

fl You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why 1t is that so many products that are ex- tensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain-the article did not fulfill the promises Of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it.
 A prominent druggist says "Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a preparation l have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent re- suits, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has SO large a sale"
 According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact, ss many people claim, that it fulflls al- most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri- nary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
 You may receive a sample bottle of swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address Dr: Kilmer 6 O., Binghamton, N. Y., and enclose ten cents; also mention thiZ paper. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug stores.-Adv.

OLD MYSTIC RITE TEMPLE
vestibuIe Uncovered at Rome Scene of Historic Event That Was De-
 scribed by Tacitus.

A religious discovery, but of a under the railway cp,bankment a few hundred yards outside the Porta Mag giore, Rome Italy. It consists of a vestibule elaborately decorated with mythologlcai subjects, such as Jason taking the Golden Fleece, the punish ment of Marsyas by Apollo, the story of the Danaids. the liberation of Aeson and troop of Moenads riding on pam thers. It is conjectured that this ves- tibu1e was place where, in the early decades of the first century of our era, mystic rites were celebrated. h. deed, it is supposed that this was the exact locality of an historical event, described by Tacitus in the twelfth book of his Annals" as having hap pened in 5 A. D., during the reign of Claudius. The historian relates how Agrippina, mother of the future Emperor Nero, coveted the gardens of T. Statilius Taurus, who had been consul a few years earlier and gov ernor of Africa, and how she i'm provised an accusation against him through a certain Tarquitius Priscus of practicing illegal mystic rites. Statilius Taurus anticipated his trial and now, nearly 19 centuries later an accidental landslip on the railway has led to the elucidation of this for gotten episode of Roman history.

I have no plans for returning East i; the folks at home let me do as l please, and it's relief to be in seclu- sion where I hear nothing of the do- ings of Broadway. I hope your an- cient globe-trotting aunt still fingers in the far East! Keep the ink flow ing, son. That novel ought to be we'll under way when I get back" The tale I had begun seemed utter trash in comparison with the story of Alice Bashford, in which, much against my will, had become a minor character. I had rather prided myself on my ability to see through a plot in the first chapter of the most compli- cated mystery story, but there were points in this unwritten tale that baff1ed me-
 kept away from the house until dinner-time, when I was received quite as an old friend by Alice and Mrs. Farnsworth. The table talk was of Celtic poetry, and proved less disturb ing to Antoine than the previous nights discussion of ghosts.
 Their day had been spent, they ex- plained, in a further examination of Luy IOOt, duu luOy udu taken long walk beyond the estates boundaries and were enthusiastic about the landscape.
 Its so beautifully peaceful all about here," Alice murmured. 'I feel that l never want to move again"
 ''That's a real tribute to America" Mrs. Farnsworth remarked; 'for Alice dearly loves new scenes. She inher- ited a taste for travel from her father, who put some new places on the maps, you know"
 I didn't know and I wanted to ask questions about Alice's father, but as though anxious to frustrate such in- quiries my aunt asked how close we were to the place made famous by Is- rael Putnam's spectacular escape from the British. She had read the story and would motor to the scene, she de- clared. It was quite clear that there were chapters in her life that were not to be opened for my perusal. No sooner had caught a glimpse of a promising page than the book was po- litely closed. A curtain hung between the immediate present at Barton-on- the-SOund and other scenes and incl

 became alert immediately when, as we rose from the table, Alice sad, with the air of asking an unimportant fa- vor:
 we were speaking last night of q man who has been asking for us here. His visits have alarmed the servants, but there is nothing to fear from him. You know"-she smiled at Mrs. Farms worth-"it's rather he who seems to fear us that, at least, Is our impres- should do so. Still, it's rather good fun to find yourself an object of spe- cial attention and to be followed, even pursued. We've even led him on a lit- tie, haven't we, Constancew
 Mrs. Farnsworth laughingly admit ted that they had led the gentleman on a trifie, "but with all circumspec- tion," she protested.
 "We met him here and there In Tokyo, and later were surprised to find him crossing on our steamer. We where we stopped for day, and elud- ed him in Chicago, where he was evil dently lying in wait for us."
 Delightful p exclaimed.
 "But please don't get the idea that the man annoys us." interposed Mrs. Farnsworth.
 "Far from it !" cried Alice.
 You've seen enough of us perhaps to understand that we enjoy little ad- ventures" said Mrs. Farnsworth. 'The man pretends to be interested in MT. Bashford's art treasures. Antoine's story about the disguise is rather against that; but we will give him the benefit of the doubt. What we are hoping is that something really anus ing may come of his persistent pur- suit With you and the army of serv- ants here we feel perfectly safe; so we're for giving him every chance to show his hand"
 "He is the Count Giuseppe Montani," said my aunt, 'who represents himself as a connoisseur-a lover of the beau tiful"
 'The mystery is solved! It is easy to understand why he has haunted the place."

CHAPTER ii-Continued.

'Tt's her manner of speaking of spookish things, MT. Singleton. It doesn't seem fitting in a widow and her so lately bereaved. And the older lady's quite as bad, sir. The maids tell me they keep talking all day about fairies and pretending they're queens and such like, and talking poetry to each other. The late master never in dulged in such things, sir"
 "He would have lived longer if he had! It was probably the poetry and fairies that attraded him to Mrs. Bashford.'
 "Yes, sir," he aequiesced with a gulp. 'I suppose you're right, sir"
 You should be grateful to Mrs. Bashford for not bouncing you all for the row you made last night. It could be done; in fact, MT. Terrence has suggested that legal means could be found for getting rid of you"
 ''That would be very sad, sir," he said humbly.
 Isn't Mrs. Bashford kind to you? Hasn't she taken pains to make you all feel at homer"
 Well, yes, sir. But she's taken El- sic back into the house, and there's no work for her, there being two women in the laundry already; and she's told me Dutch must be given his old place in charge of the poultry; and both be- ing Germans, you will recall"
 Its just her kind heart, you idiot You've all been spoiled; that's what's the matter with you"
 Tt causes feeling; that's all, sir"
 "It needn't cause 1t if you brace up and act like a man," retorted. Then, sorry I had been so harsh, I added: I've must take good care of Mrs. Bashford, Antoine. It would be your old masters wish. It would be wise present in case your mysterious stran- ger turns up again."
 He couldn't have failed to note my change of tone about the unknown visitor, but he made no comment.
 '"The guards Set, sir; front and rear"
 While there's no danger whatever it's just as we'll to take no chances. Please tell the boys to send for me immediately at any hour of the night if they see any providers about"
 Every good, sir. But if you please, sir''-he had reached the garage and he fingered, lingering his hat nervous ly-"if it wasn't for the ladies talking about spirits, we'd all feel better, sir"
 You're far from being a fool, An toine. Those ladies just play at be- lieving in such rubbish. If they really
 
 they wouldn't talk about it at table before strangers like you and me-"
 Though this seemed to impress him, a moment later, as I was drawing down the shades in my bedroom, I saw him running across the lawn like a frightened rabbit.

 Good news for millions of sufferers. Chemists have found a sure remedy-one that takes the acid up and carries it out of the body; of course, when the cause is removed, the sufferer gets well.

This girl. Violet Dewing, has disappeared and Searles re- fuses to allow the play to be pro- duced with anyone else in the part. Singleton has just returned dn- valided) from France, where he had been serving in the aviation corps. His uncle, Raymond Bash- ford, a wealthy man, had contract ed marriage a short time before his death, while on visit to Japan, He left Singleton a comparatively small amount of money and the privilege of residence in the "ga- rage' of his summer home, Bar ton-on-the-Sound, Connecticut. Mrs. Bashford is believed to be travel ing in the Orient. The household at Barton is made up of elderly employees of the Tyringham, 8 New York hotel, where Bashford made his home. By the terms of his will these people are to nave 8 home at Barton for the rest of their lives. Singleton goes to Bar ton, taking with him the manu- script of Lady Larkspur."

CHAPTER III.
A Fan

The morning mail brought a letter from Searles acknowledging my con- gratulations on his play. While my enthusiastic praise pleased him, he was very scornful of my suggestions, seeming even more depressed than when he talked to me.
 Its impossible for me to plan other work. Lady Larkspur' ate the soul out of me. I'm done; finished, clean out of the running. There's only this to report. I had a letter from Dalton saying that some time ago he asked at the hotel where he sent the script of Lady Larkspur' to know whether Miss Dewing had sent a forwarding ad- dress. Her accumulated mail had been called for by some one whose identity was not disclosed. Of course this isn't much to hang a rope on, but if that play is what I think it is and Miss Violet Dewing ever reads it she's going to jump for the telegraph office the moment sbe finishes the last act.
