THE STORY When Dick Arlington married, it was with the utmost misgiving. His wife was the daughter of the farm er for whom he worked, under an as sumed name. Dick finally decided to tell Margaret that he was a fugi tive, accused of the murder of his rich aunt. With perfect faith in him, Margaret set out with Dick to return to the city where the crime was committed, and though Dick did not look for any help from his arca dian wife, it was she who finally solved the mystery which had puz zled the police for nearly a year. For Tracy, Dick's lawyer and confidant, who had advised him to run away in the first place, was inveigled by his sudden infatuation for Dick's wife into a full confession of the crime. Then it was Dick's turn to doubt his wife, for Dick had been doubting some one all through the picture. First it was the strange secretary that bis uncle "had hired, and whom he suspected of the crime. The secre tary had now turned out to 12 c. noted detective. Then K was Tracy. ;n whom he had put the most im plicit confidence. He had turned out to be the actunl murderer. And now it was his wife. How could she have fooled him so grievously? ' It was p. p'.juf. old top." said the ecretrry. "She did just exactly as I told her to do and that wa the only way wc ever could have gotten :hat fox-faced lawyer to confess." And for the first time in a year, Dick's mind was free from any sus picion. See this picture Saturday night and help along the Library fund. Fancy box paper at this office. Mrs. G. II.
