The lake steamer touched at Pine island and left a solitary passenger— a decidedly pretty young woman, who carried a suitcase and umbrella.

She reached the cottage and stood amazed to discover that doors and windows were closely shuttered. Pine ined free.

Adams Two small nations have been well nigh done to death in the giant !Hll"lu!gh'. The fate of one has horri- (fied the world. The plight of the camp had every appearance of being closed for the season, although it was only the first of August. Something must have happened to change the summer plans of the Ben- sons, who were distant cousins of Mona. “What shall I do?" asked Mona in | 8 dismay, for there was no way of reach- ing the mainland except by boat. “If it hadn't been for Dick Master- son—" Mona paused and bit her lip, fighting back the tears. “How I hate him!"” she sobbed passionately. 1t was the old story of a lover's quarrel and a hasty parting. Mona had written a long letter to Edith Ben- son and followed the letter herself, seeking refuge from the World in the solitude of Pine island, said “solitude” being enlivened by the gay doings of the inhabitants of the group of little islands that dotfed the lovely Maine PR A T T R she mlst Tefurn homie, where she might meet Dick at any moment. Mona was growing hungry. She walked disconsolately down to the strip of beach that bordered the island. On the western shore, where one had a clear view of milcs of unbroken wa- ter, she came to a halt and stared de- lightedly. A small fire of driftwood and pine cones burned cheerfully over a circle of stones. On the stones were five lake t out broiled a delicious brown. A gray coat was thrown on the sand and near by was a fishing rod. There was no one in sight. How good they smelled!

Mikado” is quite the most widely favored of all the Gilbert and Sul- livan pieces in a popular sense and always draws the largest and most highly delizhted audiences. Of irresistible charm and novelty is “Taking Chances,” in which Lou Tellegen is appearing at the 39th Street Theatre. Its bouyant light- ness and laugh provoking situations are a Spring tonic to the glum spir- it engendered by the winter months. A Viennese opera usually either fails in a week or else runs on to glorious prosperity. “The Peasant Girl” at the 44th Street Sheatre is a Viennese opera that did not fail in a week. Though it is now in its 12th week, it has yet shown no evi- dence of having dropped from public favor which is due to the rare com- bination of delightful music, a sweet love story, wholesome bright humor and a most attractive chorus. On Monday next “Maid in Ameri-! ca” enters upon its last two weeks at the Winter Garden, with same favorites including Harry Fox, Mille. Dazie, Billy Gould, Belle Ash- lyn, Rita Gould, Joe Jackson, Yansci Dolly, Mme. Beriza, James Clemons, Sam Adams, Pernikoff and others. At the Comedy Theatre ‘“The White Feather” maintains its wide spread popularity as a drawing at- traction, and obviously is very high- Iy liked by all spectators. In this play there is a continuous upholding of suspense, and the comic phases of the entertainment are exceedingly funny. The European war serves merely as the background for an at- tractive story of love and secret ser- vice intrigue that has many divert- ing and unusualy features.

The fisherman gathered Mona into strong arms. ‘“Are you hurt, darling?” was his astonishing question. And Mona, half fainting with fright, seemed not to resent the familiarity. Her golden head dropped on the shoul- der of the fisherman and her lips mur- mured a negative. “What are you doing here, Dick?” she asked faintly. “I have an idea,” said Dick slowly, “that Edith received your letter yes- terday, and, conceiving the idea of bringing about a reconciliation be- tween us, wired me to come up. Then they left us marooned on the island, and—well, it happened just as she planned! Here they come now, two boatloads! Let us go down to the pier and meet them.” The sun was shining when they reached the end of the pier. Two boatloads of merrymakers from the water carnival came laughing up the steps. Edith Benson met the two cast- aways with outstretched hands and questioning, mischievous eyes. “Is it all right?” she asked. “Yes, it's all right.” BOILERS AND TANKS TO 1 0d dgled YOU CAN AFFORD To have the best equipped store these progressive times —that's why we urge you to install JAXON METAL CEIL- {:'Gly.ou'l'che most lasting c‘tfl. an get, consequent!; the cheapest fi!
