"Postponed it?" Sad uews for Jeph
Bon this, yet as lie spoke Mr. Mluot felt
"Minot, old chap," he drawled. "lfe
all over."
a thrill of Joy In his heart. He smiled
the pleasantest smile he had so far
shown San Marco.
"Exactly. He was fearfully rattled,
was Meyriek. My word, how he did |
go on.' Considers his daughter humili
ated by the antics of that creature we
saw on the stage tonight. Can't say I
blame liliu, either. The wedding is in
definitely postponed, unless that Im
postor is removed from the scene im
mediately."
"Oh—unless," said Minot His heart
sank. Ills smile vanished.
"Unless was the word, I fancy," said
Harrowby, blinking wisely.
"Lord Harrowby," Minot began,
"you iulimiited the other day that this
man might really be your brother"—
"No," Harrowby broke In. "Impossi
ble. I got a good look at the chap to
night. He's no more a Harrowby than
you are."
"You give me your word for that?"
"Absolutely. Even after twenty
years of America no Harrowby would
drag liis father's name on to the vaude
ville stage. No, he is an Impostor
and as such he deserves no considera
tion whatever. And, by the by, Minot,
you will note that the postponement is
through no fault of mine."
Minot made a wry face.
"I have noted it." he said. "In other
words. I go on to the stage now, fol
lowing the man who followed the train
ed seals. 1 thought my role was that
of Cupid, but it begins to look more
like Captain Ividd. Ah, well, I'll do
my best." He stood up. "I'm going
out into the soft moonlight for a little
while, Lord Harrowby. While I'm
gone you might call Spencer Meyriek
up and ask him to do nothing definite
In the way of potponement until he
hears from me—us- er—you."
"Splendid of you, really," said Har
rowby enthusiastically as Minot held
open the door for hltn "I had the feel
ing I could fall back on you."
"And I have the l'eellng that you've
fallen," smiled Minot "So long. Bet
ter wait up for my report"
Fifteen minutes later, seated In a
small rowboat on the starry waters of
the harbor, Minot was loudly saluting
the yacht I.ileth. Finally Mr. Martin
Wall appeared at the rail.
"Weil, WUUl U)UU nuuu uc ut
manded.
"A word with you, Mr. Wall," Mlnot
answered. "Will you be good enough
to let down your accommodation lad
der?"
For a moment Wall hesitated. And
Mlnot, watching him, knew why he
hesitated. He suspected that the
young man in the tiny boat there on
the calm, bright waters had come to
repay a call earlier in the evening—a
call made while the host was out At
last he decided to let down the ladder.
"Time flies, and my errand is a press
ing one," said Mlnot "Am I right in
assuming, Mr. Wall, that you are Lord
Harrowby's friend?"
"Just what is your interest in the
matter?" Wall inquired.
"The same as yours. I am Harrow
by's friend. Now, Mr. Wail, this is
the situation as I see it: Wanted, board
and room in a quiet neighborhood for
Mr. Georsa IJarrowby.. Far fi'orn the
stfoet cars, the vaudeville "Btage,~the
wedding warch and other disturbing
elements. And, what Is more, I think
I've found the quiet neighborhood. I
think it's right here aboard the Li
leth."
"Oh, indeed!"
"Yes. A simple affair to r range,
Mr. Wall. Trimmer and hie live prop
osition are just about due for their
final appeaaranee of the night at the
opera house right now. I will call at
the stage door and lead Mr. Trimmer
away after his little introductory
speech. I will keep him away until
you and a couple of your sailors—I
suggest the two I met so Informally
In the North river—have met the vau
deville lord at the stage door and gen
tly, but firmly, persuaded him to come
aboard this boat."
CHAPTER VIM.
Th» Kidnapping.
lit. WALL regarded Mlnot with
L—J "What would you say was the
penalty for kidnaping in this state?"
"Oh, why look It up?" asked Mlnot
carelessly. "Surely Martin Wall is not
afraid of a backwoods cods table."
"What do you mean by that, my
boy?" said Wall, with an ugly stare.
"What do you think I mean?" Ml
not smiled back. "I'd be very glad to
take the role I've assigned you. I
can't help feeling that it will be more
entertaining than the one I have. The
difficulty in the way is Trimmer. I
believe I am better fitted to engage
his attention. I know him better than
you do, and he trusts me, begging
your pardon, farther."
"He did give me a nasty dig," said
Wall, flaming at the recollection.
"The noisy mountebankl Well, my
boy, your young enthusiasm has won
me. I'll do what I can."
"And you can do a lot Watch me
until you see me lead Trimmer away,
then get his pet I'll steer Trimmer
somewhore near the beach and keep
an eye on the Lileth. When you get
George safely aboard wave a red light
in the bow. Then Trimmer and I
shall part company for the night"
*Tm on," said Wall, rising. "Any
thing to help Ilarrowby. And this
won't be the first time I've waited at
the stage door."
a cynical smile.
"A clever scheme," he said.
"Klght-o!" said MInot "Hut aont
stop to buy a champagne supper for a
trained seal, will you? I don't want
to liave to listen to Mr. Trimmer all
night."
They rowed ashore In company with
two husky members of the yacht's
crew, and ten minutes later Minot
was walking with the pompous Mr.
Trimmer through the quiet plaza. He
had told that gentleman that he came
from Allan Ilarrowby to talk terms,
and Trimmer was puffed with prido
accordingly.
"So Mr. Harrowby has come to his
senses at last?" he Bald. "Well, I
thought this vaudeville business would
bring him round, although I must say
I'm a bit disappointed down in my
heart My publicity campaign has
hardly started. I had so many lovely
little plans for the future. Say, It
makes me sad to win bo soon."
"Sorry?" laughed Mlnot "Lord Har
rowby, however, deems It best to call
a halt. He suggests"—
'Tardon me," Interrupted Mr. Trim
mer grandiloquently. "As the victor
in the contest, I shall do any suggest
ing that Is done. And what I suggest
is this— tomorrow morning I shall call
upon Allan Harrowby at his hotel. I
shall bring George with me, also some
newspaper friends of mine. In front
of the crowd Allan Harrowby must ac
knowledge his brother as the future
heir to the earldom of Itaybrook."
"Why the newspaper men?" MInot
Inquired.
"Publicity," said Trimmer. "It's the
breath of life to me—my business, my
first love, my last. Frankly, I want
all the advertisement out of tills thing
I can get At what hour shall we
call?"
"You would not consider a delay of
a few days?'' MInot asked.
"Save your breath," advised Trim
mer promptly.
"Ah—I feared It," laughed Minot
"Well, then—shall we say 11 o'clock?
You are to call—with George Harrow
by."
"Eleven it Is," said Trimmer. They
had reached a little park by the har
bor's edge. Trimmer looked at his
watch. "And that being all settled, I'll
run back to the theater."
"I myself have advised Harrowby to
surrender"— MInot began.
"Wise boy. Good night," said Trim
mer, moving away.
"Not that I have been particularly
Impressed by your standing as a pub
licity man," continued Mlnot
Mr. Trimmer stopped In his tracks.
"As a matter of fact," went on Ml
not, "I never heard of you or any of
the things you claim to hare adver
tised until I came to San Marco."
Mr. Trimmer came slowly back up
the gravel walk.
"In Just what Inland hamlet, un
touched by telegraph, telephone, news
paper and railroad," he asked, "have
you been living?"
Minot dropped to a handy bench and
smiled up into Mr. Trimmer's thin
face.
"New York city," he replied.
Mr. Trimmer glanced back at the
lights of San Marco hesitatingly. Then
—it was really a cruel temptation—he
sat down beside Minot on the bench.
He spoke with fervor. The story of
his brave deeds rose high to shatter
the stars apart A half hour passed,
while his picturesque reminiscences
flowed on. Mr. Minot sat enraptured,
his eyes on the harbor, where the
Llleth, like a painted ship, graced a
-painted oeeon.

He paused. His audience was not
listening; he felt it intuitively. Mr.
Minot sat with his eyes on the Lileth.
In the bow of that handsome boat a
red light had been waved three times.
"Mr. Trimmer." Minot said, "your
tales are 'more interesting than the
classics.'' lie stood. "Some other time
I hope to hear a continuation of them.
Just at present Lord Harrowby, or
Mr., if you prefer, is waiting to hear
what arrangement I have made with
you. You must pardon me."
"I can talk as we walk along." said
Trimmer, and proved it. In the mid
dle of the deserted plaza they sep
arated. At the dark stage door of the
opera house Trimmer sought his propo- ■
sitlon.
"Who d'yer mean?" asked the lone
stage hand there.
"George—Lord Harrowby," insisted
Mr. Trimmer.
"Oh. that bum actor! Seen him go
ing away awhile back with two men
that called for him."
"Bum actor!" cried Trimmer indig
nantly. He stopped. "Two men!
Who were they?"

he could know tliut, and Mr. Trimmer
hurriedly departed for the side street
boarding house where he and his
fallen nobleman shared a suit.
Abcwt the same time Dick Minot
blithely entered Lord Ilarrowby's
apartments in the Hotel de la Pax.
"Well," ho announced, "you can
cheer up. Little George Is painlessly
removed. lie sleeps tonight aboard
the good ship Lileth, thanks to the
efforts of Martin Wall, assisted by
yours truly." He stopped and stared
in awe at his lordship. "What's the
matter with you?" ho inquired.
Harrowby waved a hopeless hand.
"Mluot," he said, "It was good of
you. But while you have been assist

"Ileavens! What?" cried Minot

How Ivy Climbs a Wall.
At first ivy Is a little plant with a
brittle stem and leaves of three or five
lobes. As it grows the stem becomes
less brittle, and if it finds nothing
to which to cling It creeps along the
ground, sending down tofts of fibrous
roots. These roots, however, appear
only when they can be actually used
to the advantage of the plant. If the
Ivy climbs a wall Its stem throws out
a number of tufted fibers, or claspers,
by the aid of which the plant can cling
to the wall. These claspers are really
modified roots and do not penetrate
the wall, but merely cling in sucker
fashion to the irregularities of the sur
face. They are produced from all the
parts of the stem nearest to the wall,
but if the ivy is creeping along the
ground the claspers, being useless, are
not produced at all. The tufts <>f
fibrous roots which the plant throw*
out when it is growing on the ground
are produced only from those parts of
the stem that are opposite to the
leaves.—Kansas City Star.
Then They Knew.
George and Ethel were married a
few weeks ago and returned from their
honeymoon to a ducky little villa gar
nished throughout with the usual val
uable but useless silverware and Jew
elry which kind friends shower upon
the newly married.
The day after their arrival two tick
ets for a west end theater reached
them, accompanied by a little scentel
note bearing the simple message.
"Guess who sent them?" They fou::d
it impossible to identify the donor, but
nevertheless decided to use them.
At the end of a pleasant evening
they returned home to find the place
stripped of everything. On the dining
room table lay another little scented
note bearing the legend. "Now you
know!"—Pearson's.
He Understood, q
As the automobile that had hit him
vanished In the distance the vlctiui
sat up and slowly rubbed his head.
"The city should build crossings be
low grade for pedestrians," he said.
"These streets really aren't safe fur
automobile drivers any more. Ever
time they drive fast they hit some one,
and lots of foolish people cross the
street diagonally, as I did, instead of
at the crossings."
Then he sank back and let thi? am
bulance take him away. He was : n
automobile owner himself.—St Loui*
