The King was very ill. The guardi

went about the palace with solemn faces and the pages slid around on tiptee. All day long the Queen wept in the garden and the little Princess refused to play with her best doll, for everyone loved dear old King Arthur. One day the good King called his fair

daughter to his bedside and laying his!

wnnerea nana on her sunny curls. fa id: - "My daughter, my days on this earth are growing few, and before I go I wish to see you married." "I have no objections to a husband," sighed the Princess, who was a very learned person. "But it must be a man as intelligent as myself In fact, the wisest man in your kingdom. None else will I have." So heralds were sent throughout the land to proclaim to every one that the young Princess would marry the man wise enough to solve problems which she would put to him. Any man could try, but there were to be three tests. And the one who could correctly 60lve them should marry the Princess and succeed with her to the throne. Now it happened that not far from the palace lived a boy who had to spend his days attending to his father's goats. His days were passed far up among the rocks of the mountains, with the animals, and he saw but few people. This made him so bashful that many people thought him foolish and all called him a simpleton. So "Simple Sammy" he was called throughout the neighborhood. And even his own

parents finally concluded that the lad was foolish, he kept so silent. But

man, but in doing so tore the coat to which he held. Now the man who was saved claims damages to his coat and says he never asked the other fellow to save him; that he could have saved himself." "That is easy, too," laughed Sammy. "Just take both down to the river, throw in again the man who was drowning and let him save himself this time that will prove if he w,ere able to do it." "Good," said the Princess. "We will try it." But the man who had been saved in a hurry declared that he did not want to be put to the test again In the river and would let the damages for the coat rest. "Now for the third." said the Princess. "What is the best thing my father can do to insure the future happiness of his people?" "That's easy, too," said Sammy, with a bow. "It is this: Let you marry a sensible man like myself and we will rule together in peace and wisdom." : The Princess laughed till tears ran down, her cheeks, but decided that Sammy had solved every problem; besides, be was a fine-looking fellow and had wit. So the wedding took place, and the old King got well in his joy. But when the Princess and Sammy did come to the throne they were a happy, wise couple, and the people called him King Samuel the First. Tomorrow's story "The Three Runaways." Part I.

would go to court among the other suitor's and try his fortune. "And what could a lout like you do at the palace?" his father cried, as he burst out laughing. But his mother like all mothers soothed the lad and told him to go ahead. So Sammy got up at dawn the next morning, put on his best suit and. taking a loaf of

Hence Blaine sat back quietly, and waited for the decisive move which he knew to be forthcoming waited, end not in vain. The spectacular play to the gallery of one was dramatically accomplished; it was heralded by extras bawled through the midnight streets, and full-page headlines in the papers the next morning. ' Promptly on the stroke of nine, Henry Blaine arrived at his office, and as he expected, found awaiting him an urgent telegram from the chief of police of the city where the strike had assumed such colossal importance, earnestly asking him for his immediate presence and assistance. He sent a tentative refusal and waited. Still more insistent messages followed in rapid succession, from the mayor of that city, the governor of that state, even its representatives in the Senate at Washington,

to all of which he replied in the same ! emphatic, negative strain. Then, late! in the afternoon, there eventuated; that which he had anticipated. Mo- j hammed came to the mountain.

Blaine read the card which his confidential secretary presented, and laid it down upon the desk before him. "Show him in," he directed, shortly. He did not rise from his chair, nor indeed change his position an iota, but merely glanced up from beneath slightly raised eyebrows, when the door opened again and a bulky, pompous figure stood almost obsequiously before him. "Come in, Mr. Carlis," he invited coolly. "Take this chair. What can I do for you?" It was significant that neither man made any move toward shaking hands, although it was obvious that they were acquainted, at least. The great detective's tone when he greeted his visitor was as distinctly ironical as

the latter's was uneasy, although he j cause of our stricken sister city that

which was intended to be airily nonchalant. "Nothing for me, Mr. Blaine that is. not todiy. One can never tell in this period cf sudden changes and revolt, when our city may be stricken as another was just a lew hours ago. There is no better, cleaner, more honestly prosperous metropolis in these United States today, than Illington, but" Mr. Carlis, the political boss who had ruled for more than a decade in almost undisputed sway, paused and gulped, as if his oratorical eloquence stuck suddemly In his throat. The detective watched him passively,' a disconcerting look of inquiring interest on his mobile face. "It is be-

know I will not be in great favor with you as an advocate, Mr. Blaine. We have had our little tilts in the past, when you er disapproved of my methods of conducting my civic office and I distrusted your motives, but that is forgotten now. and I come to you merely as one public-spirited citizen to another. The mayor of Grafton has wired me, as has the chief of police to urge you to proceed there at once and take charge of the investigation into last night's bomb out-rages in connection with the great strike. They inform me that you have repeatedly refused today to come to their assistance. (More Tomorrow.)

"What's that lettuce? Take it back," roared Warren. "I ordered romaine." "Sorry, sir, but we're out of romaine." "Why, they're having it at that table!" exclaimed Helen thoughtlessly, glancing over at the large bowl of romaine that was being dressed for the proprietor's party. "Send the head waiter here!"

came back to the Marvin girls and asked them if they would care to "be presented to the young gentlemen" they had "just made acquaintance with." Julia declined firmly. "No, thank you," she said. "My sister and I prefer to talk to each other." Laura smiled, unabashed. "All right," she said. "I think there's more fun in having a nice gentleman with you. But everybody has their own Ideas of pleasure." And she returned to her seat. At Hackensack Julia suggested to Caryl that they get out and take the next car back to New York. It was getting late and both girls were tired. They bowed to Laura and Miss Plant as they passed them on their way cut. "Going home already?" called Laura. "We're going on to Paterson. So

"O" moment, sir just a moment," and he hastened over to the proprietor who was stolidlly ignoring this loudvoiced arraignment. In the mirrored wall Helen could see the whispered conference.
