PART H.
k Olie'Vve'ninfr,' a week after Stimson
bad' indulged In the proud reflection
that people who came In contact with
his granite will usually ended In quick
and abject submission, a young femi
nine friend of the girl behind the sll-
vered netting came to her there and
asked her to walk on the beaeh after
"Stimson's Mammoth Werry-Oo-Ituunil"
was closed for the night. Thy
and assented with a nod.
The young man upon the perch hold
ing the busket for 'the rings saw this
nod and judged its menulng. Intq lils
mind was born a little plan for defeat
ing the watchfulness of the redoubtable
Stimson.
When the merry-go-round was closed
ami the two girls started for the beach,
he wandered off aimlessly In another
direction, but he kept them in view and
as soon as he was assured that he had
escaped the vigilance of Stimson, he
followed them.
The electric lights on the bench made
a broad band of tretnorlng light, ex
tending parallel to the sea, and upon
the wide walk there slowly" paraded a
great crowd Intermingling, intertwin
ing, sometimes colliding. In the dark
ness stretched the vast purple expanse
of the ocean, and the deep indigo sky
above was peopled with yellow stars.
Occasionally out upon the water a
whirling mass of froth suddenly flushed
Into view, like a great ghostly robe ap
pearing, and then vanished, leaving the
sea In its solemn, mystic darkness, from
whence came those bass tones of the
water's unknown emotion. A wind,
cool, reminiscent of the wave wastes,
made the women hold their wraps
about their throats nnd caused the men
to grip the rims of their straw hats. It
carried the noise of the band in the
pavilion 'i gusts. Sometimes people
unable to hear the music glanced up nt
the pavilion and were reassured upon
beholding the distant leader still ges-
"You Were Angry with Mo Yesterday."
. tlculatlng and bobbing and the other
members of the band with their lips
glued to their Instruments. High in
the sky soared an unassuming moon,
faintly silver.
Kor a time the young man was afraid
to approach the two girls. He followed
them at a distance and called himself a
ccward. At last, however, he saw them
stop on the outer edge of the crowd
and stand silently listening to the
voices of the sea. When he came to
where they stood, he was trembling In
his agitation. They had not seen him.
"Lizzie," he began. "I"
The girl wheeled instantly and put
her hand to her throat. "Oh, Frank,
' how you frightened me," she said bril
liantly. "Well, you know I I" he stuttered.
But the other girl was one of those
beings who are born to attend at
tragedies. She had for love a reverance,
an admiration that was greater the
more she contemplated the fact that
Hhe knew nothing of It. This couple
with their fine emotions, awed her and
made her humbly wish that she might
be destined to be of some service to
them. She was very homely.
When Che young man faltered before
them, sine, 'In iher sympathy, alotually
ovewstiimo.ted the crisis nnd felt that
he mlglhlt falll dying at their feet. Shyly,
but wHh oourage, nhe marc'hed to the
rescue. "Won't you come walk on th'

man gave her a glance of deep grati
tude Which was 'Wit wifhout the pat

And so Mine two young lovers went on

"No. I wwusn't."

"No, I wasn't angry, I was only put

oUreerlng, aauig 'to them, sang a chorus
of red iand violet and green and gold,
a song of mystic lands of the future.
One day wthen business paused dur
ing the dull, sultry afternoon, Stimson
werit up town. Upon 'his return he
found thalt ithe popcorn man from his
stand over fat a corner was keeping an
eye upon ithe cashier's oage, and that
nobody at all wuus attending to the
wocwlen arm and the Iran rings.
He strode forward like a sergeant of
ffixinaidleris. "Where dn thunder Is Liz
zie?" ihe deimamded, a .storm of rage In
his eyes.
The popcorn man, although long os
soctalted with Stimson,' had never got
over betng dazed. "They've they've
gone round to th' 'th' house," he said,
with difficulty, as It he had Just been
stunned.
"Whose house?" snapped Stimson.
"Your your house, I "spose," said
tlhe popcorn man.
Stilmson marched round to his 'home.
Imperial denunciations surged, al
ready formulated, 'to tine itlp of his

tongue, and he bided tlhe moment wlhen
his lamger could fall upmn the heads of
that pair of children.
He found his wife convulsive and In
tears.
"Where's Lizzie?"
And then she burst forth: "Oh
John Juhn they've run away I know
they have. They 'drove by here not
three minutes lago. They must have
done it on purpose to bid me good-by,
for Lizzie waved her 'Hand sad-like, and
then, before I could get out to ask
where 'they were going or what, Frank
wthiipped up the 'horse and they were
gone."
Stimson gave vent ito a drea-dful roar.
"Get my revolver get a hack get my
revolver, d , do you heur whait cthe
devil" IMs voice became Incoherent In
a caihluti'c rage.
He had always ordered his wife about
as If she were a baitit'alion of infantry,
and despite her mlnery, 'the training of
years caused iher 'to spring mechanic
ally to obey, but suddenly She turned
to him. a Khrlll appeal.
"Oh, John not the revolver."
"Confound It, let go of me," he roared
again and shook her from him.
He ran hatless upon the street. There
was a multitude of hacks at the sum
mer resort, but It was ages to him be
fore he could find one. Then he charged
It like a bull. "Up town," he yelled, as
he tumbled Into the rear seat. The
hackman thought of severed arteries
and broken bones. His galloping horse
distanced a large number of citizens

caused such, contortions by the little
hatless man.
It chanced as the bouncing hack
Went along near .the 'lake. Stimson
gazed across the calm, gray expanse
and recognized a color In a bonnet and
a poise of a twad. A buggy was tra v
eling along a highway that led to Sor
rington. Stimson 'bellowed: "There
there there they are In that buggy."
The hackman became inspired with
the full knowledge of the situation.
He struck his horse a delirious blow
with the whip. His mouth expanded
in a K''ln of excitement and Joy. It
came to pass that this old vehicle, with
Its drowsy horse and Its dusty-eyed and
tranquil driver, seemed all suddenly to
awaken, to bocome animated and fleet.
The lliorse ceased to ruminate on his
state, his air of reflection vanished. He
became Intent upon his gait and spread
his aged 'legs In quaint nnd ridiculous
devices for speed. The driver, his eyes
shining, sat critically In his seat. Hey
watched each motion of this rattling
machine down before him. He re
sembled an engineer. He used the
whip with Judgment and deliberation
as the engineer would have used coal
or oil. The horse clacked swiftly upon
the .macadam, the wheels hummed, the
body nt the vehicle wheezed and
groaned.
Stimson, In the renr seat, was erect
In that Impassive attitude that comes
sometimes to the furious man when
ihe Is obliged to leave the battle to
others. Fluently, however, the tem
pest In his breast came to his face
and he howled: "Go It go It you're
gaining; pound '1m; thump the life out
of Mm; hit Mm hard, you fool." His
hand grasped the rod that supported
thecarrage top, and It was clenched so
that the malls were faintly blue.
Ahead, that other carriage had been
flying with speed, as from realization
of the menace In "the rear. It bowled
away raipldly, drawn by the eager
nplrlt of a young and modern horse.
Stimson coul see the buggy-top bob
bing, 'bobbing. That little pane, like
an eye, was a derision to him. Once he
leaned forward and bawled angry sen
tences. He began to feel Impotent;
his Whole expedition was the tottering
of an old man upon tihe trail of birds.
A sense of age made him choke again
with, wrath. That other vehicle, that
was youth, with- youth's pace, It was
wwlft-tlylng with the hiipe of dreams.

He began to comprehend those two
children ahead of him, and he know a
sudden nnd strange awe, because he
pursued the power of their young blood,
the power to fly strongly Into the future
and feel and hope again, even at that
time when his bones must be 'laid In
the earth.
The dust rikse easily from the hot
road and stilled the nostrils of Stimson.
The highway vanished far away in a
point with a suggestion of Intolerable
length. The other vehicle was becom
ing so small that Stimson could no
longer see the deirlsive eye.
At last the hackman drew rein to his
horse and turned to look at Stimson.
"No use, 1 guess," he said. Stimson
made a gesture of acquiescence, rage,
despair. As .the 'hackman turned his
dripping dionse about, Stimson sank
back with the astonishment and grief
of a man who has been defied by the
universe. He had been In a great per
spiration and now his bald head felt
cool and uncomfortable. He put up
his hand with the sudden recollection
that he had forgotten his hat.
At last ihe made a gesture. It meant
that at any rate he was not responsible.

A riiln-Kackeil Sufferer Tells an
Interesting Story.
How lie Was Tortured fur Years
and Finally Cured by
JMunyon's Remedy.
Charles Wark, of 14 North Twenty
fourth street, Philadelphia, has been a
constant Bufferer from rheumutlsm for
years. He was cured by the use of Mun
yon's Rheumatism Cure. This Is his
story:
"I was afflicted with rheumatism In
the right shoulder and suffered ho
most excruciating agony. Sharp Bhoot
ing pains darted through It so Intense
I could not sleep nights. Kven the
weight of the bedclothes was more than
I could bear; neither could I lie on the
right side or on my back. Life became
a perfect burden to me. I could not
raise my hand to my head, nnd when I
attempted to put on my coat or any
article of dress, the torture was enough
to drive me wild. Many remedies were
suggested and tried, but none did me
the slightest good, and I began to de
spair of ever being able to obtain re
lief. Some time ago, however, I pro
cured a bottle of Munyon's Rheuma
tism Cure. It afforded me relief after
the first few doses, and by the time the
little 25-cent bottle was gone I was
entirely free from pain. I have had no
return of my old enemy, and I feel satis
fled I am permanently cured. It seems
so wonderful I can hardly realize it,
and can only show my appreciation of
the merits of the cure by recommend
ing it to other sufferers."
Munyon's Rheumatism Cure Is guar
anteed to cure rheumatism In any part
of the body. Acute or muscular rheu
matism cured in from one to five days.
It never falls to cure sharp, shooting
pains In the arms, legs, sides, back or
breast, or soreness in any part of the
body In from one to three hours. It Is
guaranteed to promptly cure lameness,
stiff and Bwollen Joints, stiff back, and
all pains In the hips and loins. Chronic
rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago or pain
In the back are speedily cured.
Munyon's Homeopathic Home Rem
edy company, of Philadelphia, put up
specifics for nearly every disease, which
are sold by nil druggists, mostly for 25
cents a bottle.
