JACK BANCROFT left his car the curb and went into the apothecary shop to get some cigarettes. When he came out he found a remarkably pretty girl sitting on the back sent, "I am Miss Rolands--Amy Roland," she said. "You have evidently forgotten me--but won't you please hurry and drive me home? I have some medicine for my aunt who Js ill--and I must get home as soon as possible." "Only too pleased to be of service," replied Jack and, jumping in, started the car. "Er--which way, Miss Rolands?" asked the gallant Jack. "Straight jahead." was the reply-- and straight ahead they went. Jack was perfectly sure that he never had met the girl before. The thing was very mysterious. But she was a pretty girl. They had driven for two miles out Into the country leaving the little town behind them, when the girl, leaning over, touched Jack on the shoulder and said: "There Is whe»e I live. Stop at the gate, will yon please. You need not drive in." Jack stopped; his passenger sprang lightly out and entering the grounds of a large house, disappeared in the shrubbery which fringed a side-path. "The plot thickens," thought Jack and, starting up again, drove down the road a hit and then into the same grounds by a side gate, and up to a large garage which stood back of the mansion to the left. Then, jumping out. he ran around to the front of the house to where the path the unknown girl had taken came out upon a little lawn before the shaded piaus&i "What's up, Jack?" asked some one sitting on the piazza. "Did a young lady, a remarkably pretty young la,dy. just come up the path here?" asked Jack. No. no one had seen any young lady, pretty or otherwise. And that was chapter one of the adventure of the young lady and the automobile--an adventure which Jack could not keep out of his mind. Two months later he happened to be stopping at a seaside hotel and his friend, Tom Cranshaw, said to him: "Jack, I will Introduce you to one of the prettiest girls you ever saw. She arrived last night with her rich old aunt, Miss Matilda Fagus. There comes Margaret now." Jack had heard of Matilda Fagus, the eccentric old maid who lived about ten miles below his own town in isolation and state. Jack looked-- and there, walking slowly toward them, was the mysterious beauty of his adventure. The Introduction was made. Neither Margaret nor Jack "batted an eye," as the vulgar would say. Jack was awfully tempted to say: "I believe we have met once before, Miss Clifford." But he repressed the desire. He stood It for a whole week, and then, one night, as they sat looking at the moonlit ocean and listening to the hotel orchestra, he said: "Miss Clifford, did you ever know a girl by the name of Amy Rolands?" "Yes, Indeed," replied Margaret, "I know her very well. And, do you know, she and I are said to look very like each other? I expect her down here tomorrow night. So you have met her. What did you think of her?" "I thought her very charming," said Jack. He was just a trifle bewildered. Was It possible that the girl beside him was the same girl he had found sitting in his car that day? He had not had time to study the face of his stowaway passenger, but still-- well, in fact, he did not know what to think. Tomorrow he would meet Amy Rolands and then he would know. The following night, as they sat in the same place, Margaret saldi "By the way, Amy Rolands Is here.*' "Where Is she?" cried Jack. "Sitting beside you," laughed Margaret. Jack was a little huffed and showed It; the girl had been notifying him long enough., "Now, don't be angry," said Mar garet "The story is a very simple one. I didn't explain before because I was not sure, until you asked me last night if I knew Amy Rolands, that you remembered me. You see, I thought I was in love with a young man named Guy Carden. My parents didn't want me to marry him, and sent me to aunty's for safekeeping. I ran away to meet him and got as far as your village. There I saw Aunt Matilda, who had come in pursuit, looking for me, and jumped Into your machine to hide. You know the rest. I have learned that the house I told you to leave me at was your own. The joke was on me." "As your name Is still Miss Clifford, I take it that you did not marry Mr. Carden, after all," said Jack. "No," replied Margaret gravely, "I did not marry him. I walked back to the town, found auntie, and went home with her." It was three months later, after they had become engaged, that Jack said to Margaret: "Why was it that you did not marry Gay Carden after you had run away from your aunt to meet him?" "Because," replied Margaret, "on the way to meet him I met somebody 1 ittipught I might like better." Oteo CMb On Tuesday afternoon Hiss Etta Powers and Mrs. Mary S. Powers entertained the Octo club at a Valentine party at the home of Miss Powers on Waukegan street.
