SYNOPSIS.
PART I.—Robert Hervey Randolph,
young New York man-about-town, leaves
the home of his sweetheart, Madge Van
Tellier, chagrined because of her refusal
of his proposal of marriage. His income,
$10,000 a year, which he must surrender
It a certain Miss Imogen Pamela Thorn
ton (whom he has seen only as a small
girl ten years before) is found, is not
considered by the girl of his heart ade
quate to modern needs. In a “don’t care”
mood Randolph enters a taxi, unseen by
the driver, and is driven to the stage
door of a theater. A man he knows,
Duke Beamer, induces a girl to enter the
cab. Beamer, attempting to follow, is
pushed back by Randolph and the cab
moves on. . His new acquaintance tells
Randolph she is a chorus girl, and has
lost her position. She is in distress, even
hungry, and he takes her to his apart
ment. There, after lunch, a chance re
mark convinces him the girl is the miss
ing Pamela Thornton. He does not tell
her of her good fortune, but secures her
promise to stay in the flat until the
morning, and leaves her. In a whimsical
mood, also realizing that the girl’s reap
pearance has left him practically penni
less, he bribes the taxi driver to let him
take his Job, and leaving word with the
legal representative of the Thornton es
tate where he can Qnd Pamela, takes up
his new duties under the name of “Slim
Hervey.” He loves the girl, but his pride
forbids him approaching her under their
changed conditions.
PAftT II.—One evening he is engaged
by Beacher Tremont. notorious profligate, ;
Vu drive him and Madge Van Tellier to a
hostelry known as "Greenwood.” Aware
of the evil nature of the place, Randolph
drives the pair to Greenwood cemetery.
Infuriated, Beacher gets out of the cab
and Randolph leaves him there, taking
the girl (who has awakened to a realiza
tion of her folly) to her home. Madge
recognizes him.
Pamela extended one cheek to the j
salute while her eyes wandered off to
size up the tall, Monde, cool young
perse|eva'tt she surmised must answer
to t -,:-Y»?e of Eileen Milyuns. Being
the1 “ of two shorts, how on
„ earttkos Like managed to grow so
long? .face was wgularly beauti- i
ful, as ‘ !gh it had been carefully'
made to \,&ier like her clothes. She ap- j
jlp fjeared as passive as a rainier snow- ;
scape.
After a little skirmishing for posi- j
tion, the three ladies seated them- l
Selves in a triangle, into the center of
Which the well-trained Tomlinson van
a tea-wagon.
“Now/’ said Mrs. Milyuns, bavins

forgftt the sheer romance of the silla
tion; my dear, and get down to prac
tical problems. The first of all things,
as you must realize, is the. necessity of
getting you a companion. Would you
care to be our guest in'Madison avenue
until you can pick one out?"’
“I would put clothes ahead of a

rather in search of words and the

ing. hr > drew.a long breath and d- v
ered her.-eif of the feliowiug:
“Reaily, it’s most awfully kind -of
you. but, as I told Mr. Milyuns. Tom
linson is such a dear that 1 am going
to continue him as my companion.’’
“ ‘Y< m inson!’ ” exelah p I Mis.*M
yun- and then smiled indulgently for
the i s;t time during the interview, be
ing \. (i t the impression that at last
she } .id run into something appropri

char . “Of course you can keep him
on. but you must realize that you can’t

“Oh. yes, I can,” said Miss Thornton,
a . lit - breathlessly.' “I have a feel
ing—. can’t' explain" it exactly—that
this ;r ■rtrnent is a one-woman setting.
As I • d to "Mr. Milyuns. I don’t want

' ;A si" :;t laugh crept into the eyes of

fv..jorr. g r». The impossible is never
right.”
Having taken up her suave cudgel.
Eileen v- as in no haste to lay it down,
and may it be pointed out right here
that Mis£ Imogene Pamela Thornton
had the rare faculty of enlisting the
nearo bystander do assume her bat
ties t-- her, thenceforth becoming a
•char u- ;iy interested onlooker, ready
to wateli the. t" '•> or her''own fortune

imp^rsohal detiUhment. i
■‘That':,* where y ni slipped, mother,”
continue-! the o bte unrutth'd Eilec •.
‘‘There’.; nothin impossible to our
genera tie?!.- Jr <oesibnities are our
food, drink and -aimont. We're }.*'te
those st; .-prising • void things that de
fy lie usual law a-oi live on air.”

“You’ve hit i •> nail .on the head
' again, rafi^cr,” . -Ecu Eileen. “Yon’re
net in yympatii th lu>r, and 1 .-on:
so you’d be tie- ud. over her cheek.
! and tomorrow i. orning Tit ten TP be I
\ here to help her .'ash and spend it—idj
j necessary.” She erhed to Pamela witir
| a twinkle of ar cipation in her eyes,
j “How about it?”
Pamela smiled back her bubbling
i smile, and then suddenly grew grave.
“Do you -think I could order by
measure?” she asked, and, remarking
the hurt astonishment on Eileen’s
face, continued in rapid but neverthe
less halting explanation: “You see, it*!
Mr. Randolph. This is really his apart
ment, and he may be back almost any
—any day. I—I don’t want to miss
him. I—I wouldn’t be out When he
comes, for anything.”
“Ii’m,” interjected Mrs. Milyuns, but
before she could make any further
progress along that line, Eileen was on
her feet and saying good-by among
these other things:
“That’s all nonsense. If Bobby
found you here just as lie left you, the
first tune lie decided to turn up, lie
might never appear again. But if he
finds you after two or three unsuccess
ful calls and just one day’s shopping.
1m will never leave. Tomlinson will
have to throw him out.”
“Tomlinson couldn’t,” said Pamela,
with calm complacercy.
Gradually the sure shot made by
Miss Milyuns began to take effect. The
thought of new clothes—new smart
suits, airy evening nothings, filmy un
dergarments, and solid-silk hosiery
stole Pamela from her intention of
eternal vigilance and led her to say:
“After all, I will go with you, If it
really h l’t asking too much of you.”
Thus was Mrs. Milyuns side-tracked
for keeps, and on the following morn
ing the two young ladies were wafted
down-town in Mr. Milyuns’ best” limou
sine and proceeded to open a chain of.
credit-aCeouMs, ou the bare say-so or"
Eileen and in the name of fiilss.I. P.
Thornton, that spoke volumes for the
former’s exclusive taste in fashion
able purveyors and financial ability to
humor it. Possibly the two would
have shopped up to the moment of the
present writing had it not been for
the fact that Pamela knew all about
money from the short end.
“I have finished.” she siirhlmilv no.
nounced.
“Finished what?" asked Eileen.
“Finished shopp: w.” said Pamela. j
‘Tyo 4icon keening account, and I’ve
spent almost the who’e check.”
“ ‘I he whole <•’ h?’" exclaimed
Ilileen. “Why. you haven’t ipuched it.

You can keen your checks to look at.
I've got some that father save me
three years ago.”
Pamela smiled a smile <>f much wis
dom arid made for the nearest exit. As

leen. “I simply must help you try

“All right; cjo,” s id Pamela, inward
ly pleased that she would have some
one beside Tomlinson upon whom to
flash the firs'- dazzling vision of her
metamorphosis.

Having tried to show the public hov
charming was Pamela in and wltliou
her cheap clot lies, no puerile and gasp
ing effort will be made in these pages
to measure the effect upon her of the
latest creations of the raiment dream
gads of Fifth avenue. Suffice it to say
ikut, in one hour’s twinkling of the j
eye, she became such a radiant vision
as chokes mere words down Into the
pit of a man’s stomach, makes his jaw
•work like that of a fistr on a hot side
walk, fills his eyes with the pleading
light of calf-love and inspires hia
hands with an overmastering desire to
reach for it.
for two, four, six days, a wees, two
weeks, Pamela lived In breathless an
ticipation of the moment when she
could burst upon the eyesight of one
Hubert Ilervey Randolph, and when a’l
these days—and week:*—passed with

every time I‘am el a had accept

Rev. T. A. Caudle Talks
Editor Ripple:—
In an article which appeared
in the Ripple of Jan 13, in which
'■’on refer to the Governors eul
! ogy of Robah lteity, then you
jquote my statements as given in
iihe Governors office you said
: Gets must have changed ends
j between Yadkinville and Ral
eigh. Mr. Editor f went to Ral
jeigh in response to a call from
i Governor Bickc it; I give him
| the facts concerning this ease
| exactly as I gave in the Yadkin
j v;l!e court house. I told the
! governor just how we approach
| ed and how the murder was
(committed. I did not say any
j tun>‘ that Sheriff Zachan poun
j ced upon him but I said we ad
t vanced down the branch and
I She iff Zachary stepped across
the branch and put his hands on
the men anti Baity shot. As to
premeditated murder I did not
say at ^ adkinville or Rajeigh
that it was or was not as I did
not know, as to the doubt that
dont concern me; facts will
stand but there is a place to be
left doubts and wonders in the
minds oi the people when we
consider the whole transaction
that the good people of this
comm unity did all they could to
bri :g the guilty parties to justice
and have failed so Mr in their’
lefiorts. 'There were trin* bills
