SYNOPSIS.
Plerpont Stafford, banker and railroad
magnate, with his slxteen-year-old daugh
ter, Oloria, is wintering at Palm Beach.
Oloria is a vivacious, but willful young
lady who chafes under the restraining
hand of a governess from whom she re
peatedly escapes. Her childish capers
cause young Doctor Royce to fall in love
with her. She steals from her room at
night and in an auto plunges into the
surf where she leaves the car. Becoming
lost In the everglades she falls into the
hands of the Seminole Indians. She is
rescued and returned to her father who
had offered a reward for her return.

THIRD EPISODE
Never before in all her luxurious |
young life had Gloria encountered the j
■lightest hardship. The most ex- ;
quisite of the niceties of existence had
been hers as regularly as the breath
she drew. So she had wearied of them
and rebelled. And now she had found
that adventure was not altogether
pleasant, either. A primeval Jungle
inhabited by a primeval people was,
to say the least, distinctly uncom
fortable. i
Gloria felt it especially lucky that
since she had to be rescued fate had

plunged into a hot bath, treated his
wounds as best he could, shaved, and
put on fresh clothes.
Then he strolled out to order a new
evening dress in a hurry from a Palm
Beach tailor. He met Freneau, carry
ing his honors jauntily. Royce went
to him and held him skewered with
his eyes as he said:
"Look here, Freneau, haven't you
a iittle something to say to me?"
Freneau colored a trifle, but he
stared back at Royce without discom
fort and he iaughed no less easily
than usual
"Why, no, old man ; nothing that I
know of—except that I suppose I
ought to feel sorry that you arrived
toy late. But l can't feel sorry. I
didn't even know you were there."
Royce glared at nim, then laughed
harshly and said:
"The diagnosis in your case is clear, i
You are hopelessly infected with yel
low fever; but you are immune to all
honorable sentiments. Don't lose your 1
head, though; and don't try any of
your tricks on little Gloria Stafford."
Freneau laughed again, a more ugly

"I'm going to make it mine," said
Royce
After Gloria had enjoyed all the
redeeming influences of a tub, and a
shampoo, and fine linen and a silk
frock, she found that her Interest In

When her father saunte.' ed by aad
asked her what she was up 8ae
answered:
"O. nothing: i m Just baskin'g in ■
But when Plerpont came by that
way a little later he found Dick Fre
neau basking in Gloria's most be
witching smile. They were Romeo
and Juliet at Palm Reach, separated
only by a low wall and a clump of
rhododendrons. And Romeo was
1 reaching across that with his walking
stick.
It was the first time Plerpont had
seen his child in a flirtation. He did
not like her In that employment. He
took her by the ear and led her away.
She protested at the indignity.
Pierpont let go her ear. He had al
ways been afvaM of her and unable
to manage her. He was not afraid of
Freneau, however. He went for him
at once. He was about to begin with
a stout, "How dare you speak to my
daughter?" He paused, feeling that
without Freneau's help he might have
no daughter to be spoken to.
Pierpont was used to accomplishing
his ends with the weapon of the check
book. He drew the weapon now and
a fountain pen and said:
"Ev the way, there's that reward.
It will give me great pleasure to pay
it over."
He wrote after "Pay to the order or
the name "Richard Freneau" and the
amount "Five thousand and no-hun
dredths dollars—15,000." Freneau's
fingers twitched to clutch the fortune,
but his brain advised- him to play for
higher stakes. He put away the temp
tation with a proud smile.
"It Is reward enough to have been
able to be of service to Miss Stafford."
If Gloria had not adored hint be
fore, that chivalrous speech would
have won her. It quite disarmed Pler
pont. With his check book ruled out,
his best weapon was gone. But he
blustered all the harder. "My daugh
ter Is a little girl. I won't have her
fooling time away with you. She must
get her education first. She Is hard
ly more than a child."
"Oh, papa!" Gloria cried.
Plerpont went on: "And she's go
ing to school at once. We start north
on the next train."
"Then Mr. Freneau will come north,
too, and we shall see each other all
we want to. For we love each other,
don't we, Mr. Freneau? Desperately!
Don't we, Mr. Freneau?'
Mr. Freneau's answer was blurred.
Pierpont studied the two young peo
ple. He had his own opinion of Fre
neau It was formed on brief ac
! quaintance, but he was a judge of
J men. k
-"You love each other, eh? Des per
ately, too? Well, well! Now, look
