When she regains consciousness, | the girl finds herself in strange sur- roundings, A French maid calls her Alva Copeland and Madame Copeland, a tall, richly gowned woman, claims her as her step-daughter, Sallie meets Cousin Wheeler, who makes love to her, She resolves to solve the mystery of, why she is being sub- | stituted for Alva Copeland. Sallie tells the Copelands she is wise to their game and that, {f they pay her enough, she will play a hand for| them, The Copelands accept Sallie's offer.

As you say, we must trust each oth it is a question of good faith on both sides. We will let you know this afternoon as to whether or not we are willing to meet your terms."” Taking this as a dismissal, Sallie glanced at Mrs, Copeland and rose, but paused in the doorway. “I wouldn't have to go around New York very much, would I?

Tt was the man on | horesback of the previous day! | With the conviction of this there came the swift intuition that he wan't just some guy trying to get' fresh: he was waving, signaling to the girl who should have been in that window, the real Alva Copeland! Sallie drew back hastily but not be- fore, almest without her own volition, she had made a little gesture of denial. Would he drive back again? The westering sun was glaring straight upon her window turning the glass to a blurred, dazzling espanse and doubting that he could distinguish her features she tried with all her strength to raise the sash but it had evidently been fastened with a pur- pose., Vor all her practicability Sal- lie's romantic heart had led her straight to the solution of the man's constant reappearance before the house and if he wete the real Alva Copeland’s sweetheart she meant that he should know of the substitution, The minutes lengthened with further sign of the gray car and at 1ast a low, insistest tapping at door made her turn to admit Mteh That exceliently trained Yootman's eyes were fairly buiging from his head and the tea-tray ciattered slightly as | he set it down upon the little table. | “So that's the game, ¥ 7" he whispered hoarsely. “Fifty thousand they're going to give you!
