It was on the main Street of the bustling little city pf Weiiston. The young lady had a companion who ••emed to be an elder married' sister. The latter led a little child o f four by the hand. In his neat, though well-worn suit, and with that classic, intelligent face o f his, he' did not resemble a tramp, and yet hero b o found himself in a strange town without so much as a single cent in his pocket*. Two years previous, an expert lin- gulat, Arthur had graduated from col­ lege, For a year ho lectured in two institutions o f learning. Then he had temporary charge, of the foreign cor­ respondence of a large Importing firm. They failed, and with all his splendid education Arthur had been unable to secure a new position. He had learned that a large manufacturing concern In' the city ho was now in, needed a man Of his capabilities. He bad spent his last dollar for railroad faro to And himself stranded,- the prospec­ tive position having been filled. He sighed as he gave a last thought to the pretty girl. He smiled. as he glanced at. the little cherub-faced child playing at the curb. The com­ bination suggested howe.Jglove and happiness—what strangers to htm dur­ ing two. long, lonely years! ''Look out, there !” i Of a sudden the warning cry rang out shrilly. The driver of a cab stand­ ing at the curb uttered it. And then Arthur Perry awoke into action with all the agility and aklll o f his splendid athletic, training at the call of courage amid peril. The little child had dropped the. bnll and it had bounded over - the curb and rolled to the middle of the stone-paved street. Naturally, the child had followed it. Just at that moment an automobile whisked around the corner headed toward the helpless be­ ing directly in Its course. Arthur Perry reached the child. With a rough, heavy, push that caused the little one to cry out with fright .and pain,- he drove the imperiled in­ fant almost .to the opposite curb and then—aTShriek from the pavement, a sickening blow, and the intrepid res­ cuer knew no more. It was perhaps two hours later when Lillian Trevor reappeared at the scene . o f the accident She had turned from the shbw window in time to see . the stricken man seized quickly by the chauffeur o f the auto, lifted into It add flashed away before anyone could lnterefere. Then there was the haste and excitement o f getting^the rescued child and her hysterical sister home. And now of her own volition, her mind fall o f that white,' silent face, she had glimpsed fo r a passing moment, Lil­ lian was urged on to find"this noble rescuer o f ber little niece and thank him. . She Spoke to the policeman at.the corner, to proprietors of several street .stands, but It was only when she ad­ dressed an old cabman that she gleaned the. information she desired. It was about ten o'clock the follow­ ing morning when Lillian rang the door bell o f the palatial home of Bob- art Barr, a retired city merchant. He looked puzzled a* she was shown Into bis presence, v "Mr. Burr," she said plainly,"as he courteously asked" the object o t her call, "I have come concerning a young man whom your automobile ran down and spirited aWay yesterday after­ noon," " I imagine you must be the young lady he- was constantly referring to In bis first delirium,'’ Insinuated Mr, Barr. "The great burden o f hts thoughts seemed to be a beautiful miss with a little child." , "it—It could not have been myself,** demurred Lillian, but she flushed faintly. "May I call each day, nurse him If X may, at least bring him flow­ ers, fruits, books, so fe* may know grateful friends are thinking o f him! Oh, sir, he rlsfed his life to save our dear little one!" "Ton must be some mystic fairy, -Miss Trevor," said M r.'Barr a few days later to his now welcome caller. "How I* that?” Inquired Nellie, "It was through you that young Per­ ry came to me and now I find him an Indispensable treasure. For years I hate been seeking some expert In the languages to classify my large foreign library, and here he is .at my hand, 1well and happy.” "Even though he was kidnaped!” jmbmitted JLllUan, with a smile, > "Oh, that was a double deed that '•rentful day," declared Mr, Barr. I *Tou mean?" • "That you had already kidnaped hi* heart," And pretty Lillian flushed, and knew U was SO within the ensuing week, and wa«v glad o f i t • More important ■« Asklt—How did he make his money? ■ LoStlt—That isn't worrying me. What I’d like to know Is how did he manage to save so much of it,—“Lon­ don Answers. . ■ . .
