Mr. Cargan turned upon Magee a face

angry mob. Afterward he marvele
at that constant' guttural roar, how i

A squad of policemen who had en-
tered the car from the rear forced
their way out on to the platform. ;
"Want us to tiee you through the
crowd, Mr. Cargan?" the lieutenant
asked.
New hoots and cries ascended to the
station rafters. "Who pays the po-
lice?" "We -do." "Who owns 'em?"
"Cargan." Thus question and answer
were bandied back and forth. Again
a voice demanded in strident tones the

As Mr. Magee, and the girl turned
they beheldthe hermit of Baldpate
staring with • undisguised exaltation
at the tall buildings of Reuton.
"Why. It's Mr. Peters!" the girl
cried, -
"Yes," replied Magee. "His predic-
tion has come true. We and our ex-
citement proved' too mach- for -him.

"Mr. Magee tells me you're going

"Splendidr" commented the.girl.
"It'll be somewhat delicate," con-
tinued the hermit, "bursting in on El-
len after all these years. As I told
Mr. Magee I wish I bad an inaugural
adattessor something like that."
"1 have it," responded Evelyn
Rhodes. "I'll write a story about you
for tomorrow morning's _paper -all
about hew the Christmas spirit has
overcome the hermit of Baldpate and
how he's going back to Ms wife with
his heart filled with love for her. It

"Well, yes," agreed Mr. Peters. "I
eckon you might call it that."
"And then you can send her a copy
1 the paper and fellow it up in per-

"A good idea," commented Billy Ma -
ea
"At first glance, yes," studied Peters;
"but, on the other hand, it would be
