When a man works hard for his money HE is the one who
ought to have it--not some smooth schemer who comes along
peddling some valueless OKT-KlCH-QUICK proposition.
The one sure way to keep money is to BANK it and let it
"PILE UP, and before you'dig into the pile KNOW you have
some safe investment right here at home which you can watch
and attend to YOURSELF. '

Help Me Tell Eastern People
About Your Wonderful Crops
Jlowt Give me the address of your old friends back East that
you believe would profit by becoming a land owner in your neighbor
hood. I will do my. part to locate them in the West. Farmers of the
Diddle States have had good crops for the past two seasons and with
their surplus money are in good position to either homestead or buy
outright low priced lands in Western Nebraska, Eastern Colorado,
Wyoming, South Dakota and Montana. The coining autumn and
winter is our best chance in years to locate Eastern people on West
ern lands. Let us tell them of our big crops and the splendid chance
the West offers them for a home and increased land value. Do you
want them or shall some other locality secure them?
This is, also, an appeal to commercial clubs and county organiza
tions along the Burlington to secure for me acceptable sample yields
of your 1915 products for exhibit in our Exhibit Room in Chicago. It
is a fine chance to advertise your locality. 1 Mill take care of these
after they have been delivered at the Burlington Station prepared
for shipment. .

Id an Instant tbe ballroom was la an
Uroar, and a frightened flunky had
fun at the first wild reiort there bad
beeu a Jewel robbery to the front door
way mid bad blown three long, fright
quavering blasts mou a (tollee whistle.
Outside the Randolph mansion Lake
Lovell waa scuttling through the dark
ness with tbe diamond from tbe sky.
Idling on the mitside and waiting for
his mistress, Uagar, the gypsy queen,
and K"t her, Luke bad glanced through
the low window only to have hla gar.a
lall upon the blazing Jewel.
Never overscrupulous, he alwaya re
membered the whispered gypsy gossip
tbut Matt Harding, the dead husband
of Uagar, had made nls fortune, now
possessed by Hftgar. by some bold coop.
And here, thought the desperate
Luke, was hU ehaix e for fortune. lie
wan quick to follow ont the evil im
pulse. He gained tbe street with the wild
Idea to hide the diamond In the first
safe nook or eranny, and then to return
a quickly as be eonld to bear the
brunt of suspic ion and of search.
Inside the ballroom all was confu
sion and alarm. Women acreamed and
fainted, and the men, foremost among
them Arthur and Blair, soon surround
ed the hysterical Vivian Mar ton, 11a
tenlng to ber broken story of being
strangled and robbed by two strong
bands belonging to an unseen thug la
tbe twinkling of an eye.
On the doorstep the frightened fluuky

again. ...........

was beard returning with rapid foot
atepa In tbe dark. Far off in the other
direction another policeman could be
beard rapidly approaching and sound
ing bis night stick on tbe sidewalk.
Luke saw tbe gleam of brass buttons
under a gas lamp not a hundred yards
away. He turned, his booty clasped in
bis strong bronzed right hand, to flee
la the opposite direction. But coming
la this direction was the other accursed
j policeman quaking the night hideous
wltb the funding of hU club oti tbe
I pavement. Luke realized he waa trap
ped. To throw the diamond Into tbe
j atreet might mean its finding and bis
l subsequent conviction for its theft
Ills hand struck something cold. It
! was an Iron mall box on a lamppost
Beneath the lumpiest was a circle of
' ahade that masked his action. Quick
as thought he dropped the jewel, with
its locket aud chain, into the mail box
and ran toward the policeman pound
Ing the sidewalk, crying excitedly, "lie
crossed over, here and went through
that hedge and lawnr
"Oh, no, he didn't T said tbe putting
policeman, giving the sinister looking
Ijike n glance of quick suspicion.' 'Hie
ran right luto my arms. . I got him
Brady:" be added to the other officer,
Together v they haled the protesting
Luke to the portals of the Randolph
man-don on the front street, and they
dragged him In.
Here Luke told hi story with many
Vehement asseverations as to hla own
houesty. He said be had strolled to
tbe corner of the bouse from tbe front
doorstep aud had beeu astounded to
see a tall, dark inau leap from tbe
grouud floor balcony of a side window,
dart across the street and through a
hedge aud across the lawn on the op
posite side aud disappear in tbe dark.
He was making after this fleeing nut
rainier wbeu ,tbe policeman grablied
him, he added sullenly.
Hagar vouched for ber man, and
Luke inhisted on belug searched. This
being only fair, the search wns-uiade
aud the mbndug jewel was not found.
But the Kllce insisted on holding tbe
gypsy, aud he was belug led away
when, as fate would have It, an even
greater contretemps was to occur, an
even more unenviable notoriety was
to attend Richmond's most fashionable
function. Mrs. Burton Randolph's an
nua ball.
Sheriff Stun Swain of Fairfax ap
pea red In the doorway, accompanied
by Detective Tom Blake.
"I want Arthur Stanley over there
for the murder of Dr. lleury Lee of
Falrfux!" cried the sheriff.
The face of I'.lrtlr Stanley blanched
"Remember your promise, Arthur," he
whlsM'red. "You cannot go to the gal
lows for me. You must tell the truth
if you are tried. But you cna save me
IT you escape.
Arthur nodded aud broke loose from
the grasp of Sheriff Swain. Blair
foturht as best ho could to aid his siid-
poscd cousin, but bis now hysterical
relative, the chagrined Mrs. Kaudoli

that be could do but little. Then, too,
Mvlan Marstou added her efforts to
restrain him. It was no time for H
gar to apeak. She realized. that It
were better that Arthur escape If be
could even under the onus of unjust
suspicion.
One of tbe uoikvuien released his
bold on Luke Lovell and came to tbe
aid of the sheriff. Arthur fought like
a madman, and tbe atructrle surced
from the ballroom to the ban and out
down the steps to the sidewalk. Arthu
was slowlv but surely belnar overoow
ered when .Hagar, who hovered near
the fighting meu, plucked Detects
Blake by the sleeve and gave htm
itgnifleant sign. Such was the ma
tery of that look and shn that the
tectlva relaxed bia'efforta In aiding

Arthur wrenched himself loose and
Celled the sheriff aud the policeman,
bjfoke through the ring of cabmen and
tfunklea anI waa gone!
Uagar sow realised she should hart
taken Blake more Into ber confidence.
for all tbe detective knew was that hla
client bad been aeeklng Arthur Stan
ley with no good Intentions to tbe fu
gitive. So when later on tbe same day
be bad located Arthur with Blair be
bad given the tame Information as to

where Arthur might be found that
nlgbt to Sheriff Sam Swain, freshly ar
rived from Fairfax.
Down the street, tbe quiet, deserted
resldeuce street of Richmond's fash
ionable residential neighborhood, fled
Arthur. Behind him tbe sound of tbe
police whistles and the pursuit grew
fainter. Arthur, in splendid physical
trim and spurred by excitement, ran
like a deer. He slipped down an ob
scure alley, crossed by the backs of a
half score of mansions, and found him
self in a mean street that led down
to the railroad tracks. The pursuit
was left far beuma or else it naa gone
off In a false scent In another airec-,
tlon. j
Arthur slackened his pace and re-(
gained his breath. He looked down at.
himself and saw that he was in even-;
Ing attire. True, in the struggle his;
clothes had received some rough han-
dllng. Ills dress coat was torn under
the sleeve and his low cut waistcoat
flapped apart, bereft of Its buttons,
And Arthur gave a little laugh as be
saw his shadow under a dim street
lamp and realized that despite the
streuuous encounter through which he
had Just pasxed his silk hat, somewhat
ruffled and battered, as examination
proved, was still upon hi head.'
"How will I. ever escaieiu these
togs?" he said to himself ruefully.
"They'll have my description broad
cast In an hour." Yet he did not falter
for all that, but hurried on iti the night
through the deserted streets, and hi
some fifteen minutes' brisk walk found
himself, by rare good luck, In the rail
road yards aud by n long freight train,
Just slowly moving out.
With reckless haste he threw him
self under a freight ear and drew him
self umii the brake beaiu.-
His head ached from the noise and
the reaction of . all he had passed
through lu tbe crowded hour at Mrs.
Randolph's ball. Kvery bone In his
body ached as he held to tip Joltlug,
creaking brake beam. Cramped and
bruised from the position In whk-h be
lay on his narrow, erilous perch above
the grinding wheels, a dreadful im
pulse seized uku Arthur to let go his
straining grasp and end the now. fit
ful fever of bis life beneath tbe clank
ing wheels that ground and groaned
beneath him.
What was be after nil but a living
falsehood and a cheat? Not a Stanley
of Stanley hall, spending with a free
hand as becaiua u reckless gentleman,
but a gypsy iniHKtor, a cheat, wast
ing substance that was not his! A fu
gitlve from Justice and a bankrupt be
lleved by all who bad known him to
be the murderer of a kind and gentle
old man who had never harmed him.
but ou the contrary had been hi friend
and had been one of the agencies by
which he, a hedge boru gypsy, had
been reared iu a mansion under a high
name never his.
The glamour of his self acrifice lu
shielding Klulr and thus making him
self a voluntary murder susect pass
ed from Arthur. He saw now that In
eavluy Blair he bad only done so to
save himself from the open shame and
humiliation that would come to .him
when the searching luqulrles of a mur
der trial, with tbe evidence that Hagar
possessed evidence be felt sure she
would produce to save the life of ber
son would result In bis acquittal of
mursVr. but would leave him stripped
of the eacoek feathers of tbe Stanley
heritage that be, tbe gypsy Jackdaw,
had worn so long.
He saw In tbe dust and darkness th
baleful gleam of tbe diamond from tbe
sky. He saw the accusing, fierce gas
of bis gypsy mother, and then, like a
benediction and a aavlng grace, be
aaw. In the dust and gloom, the sweet
face and tbe sad. wistful eyt of Ea
ther! He graed the cold Iron rod
stanchly now. Let destiny deal him
what It mit-ht. he would stand the uf
fet.i and flgbt on for Father's sake!
