No one knew, however," that under, my management, the club grew In less than a year not only to hare paid for . Iteelfc. but to have yielded a small Income, oyer and above expenses,' ; I did 1 not tell my father I don't know why, " perhaps it was because I inherited a little of his business acumen, but I manipulated the net income in various minor undertakings, even in time buying small plots of unimproved realestate, meaning after a year or two more to surprise my father with the result of my venture, but his death Intervened before I could tell him about if "Your father's associates, then, be

lieve you to be without funds or private income of your own?" the deteofive asked. "Yes, Mr. Blaine. And whatever money is necessary for the investigation, will, of course, be forthcoming

from this source. "Let me strongly advise you to make no mention of it to anyone else; let these men believe you to be utterly within their power financially. And, now, Miss Lawton. I will leave you, for I have work to do." The detective rose. ' "The private wire will be installed tomorrow morning. Remember to be absolutely unsuspicious, to appear deeply grateful for the kindness offered you; receive these men and your spiritual . adviser whenever they call, and above all, keep me informed of everyt'-ng that occurs, no matter how insig icant or irrelevant it may seem to yuu to be. Keep me advised on even the smallest details anything, everything concerning you and them." Thus it was, that when two . days later, President. Mallowe. of the Street Railways, called upon his new ward, ehe received- him with downcast eyes, and a charming deferential manner. His long-nosed, heavy-Jowled face, with the bristling gray side-whiskers, flushed darkly when she placed her trembling little hand in his and shyly voiced her gratitude for his great kindness to her. "My dear young lady, this has been a most sad and unfortunate affair, but

I have come to assure you again of the sentiments of myself and my associates toward you. We come, your self-appointed guardians; we will see -thct no financial worrlmente shall come to you. Remember, my dear, that I have three married daughters of my own, and I could not permit the child of my old friend to want for anything. You may remain on here in this house, which has been your home, indefinitely, and it will be maintained for you in the manner to which you have always been- accustomed."

"Remain here in my home V Anita stammered. "Why it it is my home, isn't Itr "You must consider It as such. I do not like to tell you this, but it is necessary that you know. I . hold a mortgage of eighty thousand dollars on the house, but I have never recorded - it, because of my friendship and close affiliation with your father. . I shall not have it recorded now, of course, but there Is a slight condition, purely a matter of business, which in

view- or the' fact that through your coming marriage you will have a home of your own, Mr. Rockamore, Mr. Carlis and myself, feel that we should agree upon. Your father had a shadowy interest in some old bonds which have for years been un remunerative. Should they prove of ultimate value, we feel that they should be transferred to us .as our reimbursement for the present large sum which we shall lay out for you." (More Tomorrow.)

Uuder the big chestnut tree in the

front yard was a horse saddled and bridled, stamping the ground -while waiting for its master. The rider sat in the dining room eating hastily, glancing first at the clock, then out of the window down the road stretching toward the distant camp. Polly came out of the house without a hat, dangling an empty tin bucket by her side. "Papa," said she as she passed by the window, "I am going down to the old pasture to get some cherries from that morello tree be sure not to go till I come back." "That depends on whether any of the Yankees are coming this way," replied the man; "I have to be back in camp by 4 and report on what I have learned." Polly ran swiftly down the meadow path, and just as she was about to climb the fence she heard a sound of galloping feet. Just at the bend the horse stopped and the rider, a strap-

ping young fellow in blue, dismounted and vaulted the fence to get his hat that had blown off and fallen into the field. Polly swiftly raced to the big tree trunk from which she could get a view, yet not be seen. "That's a go," she heard the young

soldier exclaim. "Here my hat is

down in this dry well, and I have to get it when I am in a hurry." Polly saw him disappear down the

ladder which was always left in the

old well. Then 6he remembered

her father, who was a Confederate

officer., was back at home., and this

Union man might take him prisoner.

She glanced at the saddle-bags slung across the saddle they might con

tain just the information her father

wished to take back to his lines.

Polly did not hesitate; running to

the top of the well, she grasped the

ladder and had dragged it up out of the man's reach before he realized

what was happening. "You are a Yankee and shan't catch my papa," shouted Polly down the well to the astonished man. "I am going to take your horse and bags home to papa, then I will let you out." And with that Polly was gone. Leading the horse, she walked into her own front yard, and was greeted by

her surprised father with a shout. "I have got a Yankee down in that dry well in the pasture," she said, "and here are his dispatches. I will let him get out when you are ready to go back with me." Another moment and Polly's father was busy reading the orders. Important ones they were from' the commanding general to his officers further down in Virginia, and great movements of the army depended upon their being delivered. "This is just what I wanted to know, Polly," exclaimed her father in delight. "I know all of General Howard's movements, and will take the Information at once to my colonel." "Oh. wait, papa," cried Polly, "do let's go back and get my prisoner the poor man must be awfully frightened down at the bottom of a well." "When Polly and her father arrived at the well they found the young soldier looking up with an amused smile. "You are my prisoner!" shouted Polly's father. "Not much," came back the reply from the bottom. "I surrender to no one but the young lady who captured me." When the ladder was let down the young man lost no time in running up quickly. You are my prisoner," said Polly's

father, "but that is no reason you should not get a bite to eat before you go back to my camp. My name is Burton." "That was my mother's name," re

plied the young soldier; "she was; from this part of Virginia, I think. 1 1 am from Massachusetts. My name is ,

Bland."

"Why. then, you are my cousin, George Bland," sang out Polly in sur

can't let Cousin George go to prison." "I will have to take him to my camp," replied r Mr. Burton. "But', I can arrange to have him paroled,; so he can go home and not get into any more trouble down here." ; It was a merry party that sat that night around the table, the boy in blue and the man in gray talking affectionately. And that evening Mr. Burton's colonel saw ' that Young Bland was

Until Julia was sure he had not asked her just to see what she would say, and not because he wanted both her and Caryl, she would postpone her decision against him. Of course, if he had planned a little surprise for both sisters, he could hardly retract his invitation to the younger one when the older one made the fulfillment of his plan impossible.

At last the working day came to an

end and the store bell rang preparatory to closing for the night. Julia, with the other girls at her counter, put away any stock that happened to

be out of place, then hurried off to

get her hat. She felt depressed and could not join in the light laughter of her companions.

"I say, said one of them, "what

do you think of some of us getting together tonight "and going down to

Coney? will you go along, Miss Marvin? Dutch treat, you know," she added quickly. Julia tried to smile. "Oh, thank you," she replied, "but you must

count me out of it, please, it is klndj of you to think of including me in your fun, but really, I seldom go anywhere in the evening and never without my sister." "Why not take her, too?" suggested Minnie Maibrunn pleasantly, "that is, if she's the kind that will go in for some fun." "Indeed, she loves fun," returned Julia, "bpt well, to be frank, girls I do not think that she and I can afford at this time the extravagance of going on a pleasure trip anywhere." "That's too bad," sympathized several of the girls, while Minnie asked in an aside if Julia wouldn't allow her to "stand treat." But Julia firmly

and gratefully declined. She nodded brightly to the group

She had spoken the truth in saying she and Caryl could not afford the proposed jaunt, but she had not added

still another truth and that was that cue did not care to go, with this rather noisy set of -girls to a public resort, and that she did not wish to assume the responsibility of chaperoning her pretty sister upon such an expedidition. People looked at Caryl always, and Caryl evidently liked to receive their admiring glances. "She is a darling but a great responsibility!" sighed Julia as she walked along. Then she caught her breath with a gasp of surprise, and stopped short. For there, on the corner, right in front of her, 6tood Kelley Delane, his hat in his hand, smiling and evidently waiting for her. For a second after she saw him, Ju

second, thought told her such a move would be foolish. Delaine had seen her and knew 6he had recognized him. She walked on, and, when she

came abreast of him,' tried to pass him with a slight inclination of the

head, but he was not so easily snubbed.

He lifted his hat, and, making no ef

fort to stop her, fell into step at her

side. His first words, and the embar

rassed maner in which he spoke them,

checked Julia's rising indignation.

"I really want to speak to you, Miss Marvin, or I should not have taken this (shall we be charitable and 6ay 'unconventional'?) way of addressing you. Please forgive my seeming rudeness. I I I am not a well, a masher, nor do I make a practice of speaking to young ladies who show that they are not especially willing to talk to me. You must believe that won't you?" There was a boyish appeal in his voice, and Julia's tone" was kinder than she had meant it to be when she replied. "Of course I believe you, Mr. Delaine," she answered him. '"What

is it you wish to speak to me about!" "Several things," he returned more

confidently. "In the first place, will you be so good as to give your sister a message for me?" ' More Tomorrow

Already it had escaped the braid and fell about her face in straight, clinging whisps. And she could not curl it tomorrow. There was no way to attach her electric curler. rShe pictured the blonde

woman, at breakfast in the dining car, expuisitely coiffuered. Then she pictured her own hair brushed unbecomingly straight under her hat. She had no kiu curlers, but she could do it up on hairpins. The next moment she was groping in her handbag for comb and pins. When again she lay. back on the pillow, a bristling row edged her forehead. .A creaking sound from above, and Warren's stockinged feet and pajamased legs dangled from the upper berth. "Stuffy as the duce up there," as he dropped down beside her. "Why in thunder don't they ventilate those upper berths? Room enough for ua both down here?" "Why, yes, dear of course. Do you want to He next to the window?" "No, this's all right, only don't root me out. Hello, what's here?" "That's my satchel. Just shove It down to the foot."

Helen lay with her face to the window, staring out at the flying poles and treetops, obscured at times by the trailing smoke from the engine. "WTiere are we now?" demanded

Warren, as with hissing steam and grinding brakes the train slowed down. Raising on her elbow, Helen gazed out on a long, dimly-lit platform. "It's a big station. They're putting on a lot of trunks." "Must be Brattleboro. We're in Vermont by this time." A flash of light from a swinging lantern, shouting voices, a tolling bell, a shuddering lurch and they pulled out with gathering speed. But the swaying motion of the train failed to lull Helen to sleep. She was stiil thinking of her hair. Had she been doing it too hurriedly in the morning? Was that the. picture Warren always had of her? Restlessly she- turned, goaded by her rankling thoughts. "What's the matter can't get to sleep?" This road's pretty rough along here." "Oh, no, it isn't that I love the motion of the train," nestling against his shoulder. Prjcked by the bristling hairpins he drew back with a roar of rage. .
