we note the sorft, radiant beauty of a
well shaped foiolgn-looklng woman In
fthlto fox furs, slyly revealing a daring
decollete, who peeps down nt us from tho
dickering picture, archly, nppeallngly,
naughtily, merrily.
"Holy Christmas! That woman! Do
you seo her' Do you see her?" suddenly
bursts out a strong masculine cry from
the body of tho auditorium; words which
only must have sprung Into sound from
the effects erf it genuine surprise.
It was the resonant voice of Monto
Crlspen, who, with the Secret Servloo
ogsi't, had accidentally dropped Into "Tho
Oem" out of idle curiosity.
"Sh-h-h," admonished his companion In
j a low tone. "Hood lookor, yes. But this Is
no place to ofpanizo a harom."
More whispers wcro exchanged. Then

"Sho Is tho Countess' Zcda," Monto
gasped. "It'B a cluo ti smasher of a

FARMER SMITH'S
BE A SUNSHINE SPREADER!
Dear Children Can you realize what it means to havo a lot of boys
and girls all working together, doing little kindnesses and spreading sun
shine and making life really worth while?
In our pot of gold there is happiness and we nre always seeking it, for
it is the aim and object of lifo to bo happy. There are many things which
keep us from being happy, and it is our duty to get rid of those things as
fast as we can.
If we aro busy wo have not time to think of our worries and troubles.
No one who is busy working in the right direction ever gets into what we
commonly call "trouble."
One of the objects of our club is to teach you efficiency. This is the new
word which has just como into use recently.
In order to make this word understood by you in as simple a manner
, as possible, let me say that efficiency -means getting the most and best out
of yourself. The first person in the world to make happy is yourself, be-
cause it would be foolish to try to make a person smile when you have a
scowl on your face. If some one has your book, you want to get it back,
and if some one has stolen your happiness from you see that you get it back.
Do not say that it is impossible for you to make some ono happy or to
spread a little sunshine in this world of ours, because you can always strive
to make some one happy and do a little kindness each day to yourselves and
f ' ipread a little sunshine along your own
Good-night, with love and kisses

Monte saw a young panic developing.
He roughly plowed his way to tho plush
covered rail that encircled the back of tho
lower floor. Agent K. followed and
gavo.hlm a lift. Astride tho rail Monto
commanded the Attention of tho fxolted
audience. Forming his hands Into a cup
around his mouth, he megaphoned again
and again:

responds Instantly to that which stands

leader hear an Intrepid voice of command
at tha back of the theatre than he rallied
his flock of musicians, and the band burst
lorm wnn me stirring strains of the
Wnchtparado march.
Tho dash for the doors waB halted. At
taches collected their ecattered vlts and
pulled back tho Iron bolts of the emerg
ency exits. The outward rush became nn
"orderly tread.
When the theatro had been nearly
emptied, 0110 woman, a frail, white-faced
creature dressed In black, lay stretched
on tho balcony stairs, tho sole victim
of tho flro scare, As for the flre.i It had
long slnco been put out; It was tho old
story of a careless operator, a lighted
cigarette and an Inflammable film.
"Who Is she?" asked a doctor who had
been attending her.
"I know her," said the Secret Service
man In a subdued voleo to Monte. "So
do you. Look! Now do you know her?"
Crlspon, down from his perch on the rail,
advnnced toward tho balcony stairs
"Well, I am flabbergasted," whispered
the young heir. "Jim Kocrncr's widow

"Surprises usually do come In bunches,"
commented Agent IC "Know a Bate placo

And that was how Jim Koemer's widow

CHAl'TEU XI
Twentieth Century Chivalry,
TON'T' they resemble her?" asked
XJ Agent IC a few days later, handing
Monto Crlspen a half-dozen photpgraphs
Bhowlng tho Countess Zeda In a boardwalk
rolling chair.
"They are rather dim," was the evaslvo
reply.
"Enlargements usually lose the sharp
ness of originals. Moreover, these prints
wero copied from tiny, narrow strip ex
posures of a movlng-plcture film that was
taken at a Bpocd of 40 views a second."
'Thought tho film was burned In tho
flro at tho Kensington theatre."
"That particular celluloid film was de
stroyed. But I went to the production
company that made It and got the 100 feet
of Easter Day parade. A local photog
rapher did tho rest."
Tho Sccrot Service man wns elated and
enthusiastic. He felt tho trail to tho Slg
vay Oang waxing torrid. Monto walked
to the window of tho study In his Walnut
street homo nnd glanced keenly at each
of tho pictures.
Somehow he did not feel especially over
Joyed nt tho enterprise of Agent K., now
that he faced Its fruits. Ha did not blame
tho professional Investigator for his zeal,
really most commendable. Yet something
within him revolted at tho Idea of wag
ing warfare against a woman, any kind
of a woman.
As long as chivalry lives In man, no
woman needs a protector. Encore It. If
sho bo a beautiful woman
"Como now, Mr. Crlspon," Insisted Agent
IC "Is eho or la sho not the woman wo
are aftor7 There must bo no mistake,
for I want to turn these pictures over to
tho Atlantic City police and let them
locate her."
Monto still hesitated. Ho recalled how
tho Countess Zeda had warned him of
tho plot against tho steel works. Sho
must have run a big risk when sho did
that. As for tho $6000 ho paid for tho
cryptic cross; It was a mere bagatelle.
Ho was thinking rapidly.
Ono of the enlarged prints In an upper
corner held tho partial profile of the chair
boy who was wheeling tho Countess.
Monto decided that If he found that chair
boy ho could locate tho Countess hlmsolf,
and spare her tho notoriety of being
dragged Into an International situation.
Ho mentally opined thero was at least
that much coming to her for what sho
had tried to do for him on tho roof of
the Bellalre-Blltz.
"You say wo must bo absolutely sure?"
he remarked, almost languidly.
"Well, rather," answered IC "A mis
take of Identity would bo serious, most
serious."
"Then suppose I drop In nt another tho
atro where this same film Is running and
havo another look at tho picture ns It
appears on tho screen," ho suggested.
Ho was playing for time; tho wonder
ful black eyes of tho Countess had won.
"As you say," said tho Secret Service
man a bit ruefully. "But I advise against
too much delay."
"I will keep one of tho enlargements,
this ono," remarked Monte with apparent
Indifference.
Tho pictures he returned to Agent IC
did not Include the one that showed tho
chair boy,

years' Imprisonment In tho Atlanta Fed

Monte knew something of tho machinery
of law : how tho prisons frequently got

to link them with their major wrong
doings. Wuftllng never once quailed when faced
with tho JCoerner woman. Ho was tho

before. Owing to tho war confusion
rampant In tho European capitals, noth

Monto led tho way Into a small, sound

For the two weeks' vacation a good

If a suitcase Is preferred, there aro
practical models with aluminum frames,
