CHAPTER *
4 | » JT the moment that Blye met
I A J June Ne<l Warner was sprlng
inK op tho stairs, his jaws set
* ' and his fieta clinched.
It was thua that Ned Warner had,
after all his weary pursuit, found his
bride—in the presence of Gilbert Blye'.
Behind Ned came the runaway June
Warnefa stern faced father and gen
tle faced mother; came Iris Blethering,
Tune's bosom friend; Babble Blether
ing, husband of Iris; came Marie,
June's high cheek boned maid, with
her friend and admirer, Officer Dowd;
came fat old black Aunt Debby, pant
ing and out of breath and shrieking
for her Miss Junle: came that hand
some and energetic collie, Bouncer,
leaping and barking and encouraging
the excitement with all his canine
might.
For only an Instant Ned Warner
stood nonplnsed before the door of the
room; then he seized a chair, and.
striding to the door, he swung the
chair, while the others of the little'
throng, which had plied in after him,
fell back.
Beyond the door the dark, handsome
man with the black Vandyke had led
the beautiful little runaway bride to
a heavy man with thick lidded eyes
and a round head bristling with short
hair. He sat in a chair, and in his
bands was money. He rose as June
was led up to him, and into her hands
he thrust the money. Then he smiled
at her, while Gilbert Blye stepped
back, sauvely smiling and stroking his
black Vandyke with his long, lean
white fingers.
June shrank from the fat handi
which were about to be clasped upon
her shoulders and from that wide
thick smile upon the face of the heavy
man and. laughing nervously, turned
to Gilbert Blye, who bent his dark
handsome head above her and spoki
to her in his low voice.
Crash!
The door splintered and gave waj
and through It burst the wild eyed
Ned Warner, his jaw set and his fists
clinched. For a second he stood be
wildered by the strange light which i
flooded this large room; then, with an 1
he sprang for the black Van
dyked man. He clutched Ills fingers
around the throat and, with a savage
roar, bore Gilbert Blye to the floor.
The runaway bride uttered shriek aft
er shriek.
At the door downstairs there stopped i
an electric coupe, driven by a sharp
featnred woman with a long no«e and
p. high arched brows. She Jumped out
and from the dim hallway there came
a short, thick man with a short, thick
" stub of « cigar In one corner of his
mouth. It was the well known and
Justly famous private detective, Bill
Wolf.
"Got him, Mrs. Blye!" he triumphant
ly husked. "Your husband is right up
stairs—with the girll"
"The viperl" hissed Honoria Blye and
dashed into the dim hallway.
Bill Wolf caught her as she started
up the stairs.
"Not so fast, madam!" he called and
laid hold of her arm. "This way,
please."
"But my husband: The girl, June!"
"They're here all right, and they
can't get away. Here's your pictures,
ma'am, and here's your bill."
He handed her a large roll of paper
and two photographs, one of Gilbert
Blye and one of June Warner.
Upstairs there was a scene of wild
confusion. The runaway bride, her
mother, Iris Blethering and the viva
cious Tommy Thomas were screaming
In hysteria, while the heavy man with
the thick eyelids and the man with the
white mustache and Bobbie Blethering
and half a dozen other men rushed
upon the fiercely struggling men on the
floor.
"My husband!" shrieked June. "My
husband:" And she ran around and
around the excited pack of scrambling

MONDAY EVENING.
men, followed by the leaping, barking
Bouncer.
Into this tumultuous scene there
rushed Marie and Officer Dowd and
fat old black Aunt Debby just as Bob
ble by main strength dragged from
Gilbert Blye the maddened assailant
who had sprung upon him.
Gilbert Blye rose feeling of his throat,
and for a moment he contemplated Xed
Warner with dazed bewilderment; then
a flush of anger came into his cheeks,
and his black eyes blazed.
"Let him go I" he yelled, and, thrust
ing the heary Kdwards out of his wsy,
he made a mad rush for the man who
had attempted to strangle him.
It was huge Officer Dowd who this
time jumped in between the two furi
ous combatants and, with the aid of
half a dozen young men, prevented the
desperate encounter which would hare
ensued.
"My husband !" sobbed June and tried
to throw herself upon him, but he turn
ed from her. "Ned: Mr. Blye!"
A hand was laid upon Ned's arm-
Iris Blethering's. She had forced her
way through the excited throng.
"Why, Ned!" she called, shaking his
arm and looking at the eyes from
which the light of reason seemed to
have fled. "Ned, listen to me. It's
iris! Don't you see? This is a motion
picture studio!"
They all had to repeat It again and
again before they could reach his dazed
intelligence. He had seen but two ob
jects in all this huge room, crowded
with Its moving picture machines, its
properties, its scenery, Its banks of
strange lights, and those two objects
had been his runaway bride and Gil
bert Blye.
June! She stood now supported by
her father and mother, her large, lus
trous eyes turned appeallngly on Ned.
waiting the moment when she dared
approach him again.
"Don't you understand. Ned?" she
frantically cried. "Won't you under
stand? It's a motion picture play!"
Slowly he turned his glassy eyes in
her direction. He comprehended at
last, but there was no softening In his
face, for there still stood the dark,
handsome Gilbert Blye. Ned made a
sudden lunge for his enemy, but Officer
Dowd. watching him narrowly, stopped
him.
"You hare been with that man ever
since you left me!" savagely charged
Ned. turning suddenly toward the
trembling June and shaking his finger
at her.
In the abandoned bank room below
Bill Wolf stood near a dusty window
with Honoria Blye and rolled out be
fore her a bill, yards long, covering all
the separate items of his sleuthing on
the trail of Gilbert Blye and June War
ner.
"Go over tha Hgt, ma'am. Item by
Item," confidently invited the faithful
detectiTe. "You'll find them correct.
And here'* a check on your own bank,
all ready and made out for you to sign,
and here's a fountain pen, ma'am."
Honoria Blye took the long list and
began to check it off, item by item.
In the studio above a score of indig
nant eyes turned on Ned Warner, and
there was a loud chorus of protest as
he pointed accusingly at his unhappy
runaway bride.
"What do you mean?" demanded the
cold, stern roice of Gilbert Blye, and
he Advanced, his black eyes glowing.
"This girl has done no wrong!"
They all talked at once, and they all
talked indignantly at Ned Warner—
Tommy Tliomns. the white mustached
Orin Cunningham, the round headed
Edwards, Marie, Officer I>owd, Bob
ble and Iris Blethering and all the
camera men and membeog of the Blye
Stock company. According to them,
June Warner was the sweetest and
best little wife any man dared wish
for, and if Ned Warner chose to criti
cise her in any way he would hare to
answer to every person here. Including
fat old black Aunt Pebby, who breast
ed straight up to him. waddling her
voluminous self defiantly from side to
side.
' Looky hyah, you. Mr. Ned'" she
flared, and Bouncer, who had been
rushing around the separated bride
and groom, stopped to bark ferociously
up at Ned. "Ain't that Marie been
with our honey ever since she done
come an' got her clothes? Ain't yon
got no gumption? Why, looky hyah,
if yon say H word about our Mist
Junie I'll Jest about squash you!"
Iris and Father and Mother Moore
bent forward eagerly toward Ned, and
all smiled reassuringly. Then father
Moore turned to June.
"My daughter," he said, "come
home."
Mother and daughter wept 111 each
other's arms.
CHAPTER 11.
" > j ED!" It was a pathetic little
V figure which turned appeal-
ingly to the scowling young
__J man. Her big eyes were full
of tears. "It was all a mistake, dear!"
She choked back her tears, and there
was a tense silence. In which Ned War
ner stood with cold eyes and folded
arms waiting.
"Oh. Xed. can't I make yon see and
understand?" And there was a pite
ous wistfulness about her. "We were
all so happy on that day of our wed
ding, so happy as we started on our
honeymoon trip! And when we stood
alone in the Pullman drawing room,
surrounded by our white ribboned bag
gage. there seemed to be no cloud In
our aky!"

TWO GREAT FII,MS AT THE PALACE
Oypsy life in this, the Spring time,
has an appeal to us all. We are all
gypsies at heart when the winter snows
melt away and the wanderlust is in
the air. Rosemary Theby who, with
Harry Myers and Brinsley Shaw, en
acts a leading role In "Playing With
Fire." a two-reel society drama, makes
an ideal gypsy. Of dark complexion
and L*tln features. Miss Theby ideally
personifies the gypsy queen. M&rja, in
the drama, "Playing With Fire," which
came about in this way: Harry My
ers. Brinsley Shaw and Rosemary
Theby, the principals in "Playing With
Fire." were automoblllng in Long Is
land recently when they came upon a
band of gypsies camping in a wood
through which the road passed. Miss
Theby at once saw the picturesque
possibilities in the band of Roumanian
nomads and a quick return was made
to New Tork for camera. The gyp
sies. for a substantial consideration,
quickly entered into the spirit of the
photoplay and. composing her scenario
on the spot, Miss Theby, with her cam
erman'i assistance, soon had several
hundred feet of film finished. Miss
Theby exchanged her own clothes for
those worn by the "queen" of the
gvpsy band and called forth admiring
romment from the "king" of the wan
dering crew in her make-up. In addi
tion There will be shown to-day and
Tuesday the latest Kssanay release by
Charlie Chaplin. "By the Sea." Judging
from his past films this new one prom
ises great entertainment. Adver

DONKEY GAVE HIM THE ME
j, I remember quite well the great
pains I took in the preparation of my
first sermon. I committed it carefully
to memory and was letter perfect
when the time came for its delivery.
It was preached to a email congrega
tion of farmers and their womenfolk.
It was a beautiful summer's day, when
all the windows and doors were wide
open and my subject was on the "Si
lence of God." I remember I spoke
of the wonderful Rilence of God in the
Bible, and how silently he governed
his great world, how our human ears
could not hear the noise which this
world or the planets and stars made in
their progress through space, and how
God governed our souls so silently.
11 remember quite well how impressive
I thought I was when I said "and on
this beautiful day we hear no sound"
—and the deep sDence was broken by
the deep braying of a donkey, who
brayed sonorously, thrice!— The Rev.
Arthur Lowndes, D. D., in the Chris
tian Herald.
WHAT A REVIVAL IS
The word "revival" is often given
a meaning which primarily does not
belong to it. Many emphasize the
conversion of sinners as the essential
element In revival work; but that is
the secondary meaning of the word.
Essentially, "revival" means the quick
ening of God's people. Tou cannot re
vive a dead man. The unregenerate
sinner is spiritually dead. He must
be born again. Now, you may re
vive a partially drowned body, or a
partially frozen body. The regenerate
soul's life often weakens and wanes,
until the flame almost flickers out. But
if there be the least apark of life left,
it can be fanned into a flame; and
like the apparently dead cinder in the
smithy's forge, that spark will touch
others and kindle a flame that will
| enthuse a church, a city, or even a
nation. A revfval of religion, then,
'must logically begin with the church.
| Such is the divine order.—The Chris
tian Herald.

ADVERTISING PARCEL POST BV
WINDOW DISPLAY
A novel and effective method of
advertising: the U. S. Parcel Post was
devised by the postmaster of Canon
City, Colo. The post office has a large
show window, and in this were placed
a great variety of articles that could
be or had been shipped by parcel
post. The list included boxes of ap
ples, sacks of flour, hams, rocking;
chairs, shovels, and many other com
modities the sending- of which by par
cel post would not ordinarily occur to
most people. Each was properly
wrapped, tagged, and addressed, and
placards showed the weight and the
cost of postage to different points.
One result has been a large increase
in the parcel post business at Canon
City. A picture of the exhibit ap
