taneously successful produces a dis-

ducers of so many successes the

of L C Page A Co and "The Rugged
Way" Is published by Lothrop Lee A

1 The name of the author alone Is
enough to create a demand for "The
Carpet from Bagdad” It Is written by
'Harold McGrath who has written more
successful high-class works of Action
than any contemporary writer In his
latest story Mr McGrath has explored
a brand new and fascinating region
of romance The plot built about the
theft of a rare and holy rug gives en-
tertainment colored with all the charm
of the Arabian Nights After the rubles
and diamonds that have enticed the
reader this romance of a rug hunter
'Is the more grateful because of its
freshness The present 'plot invests
every old rug on one’s hardwood floor
with suggestive possibilities and abso-
lute enchantment Many different col-
ored threads have gone Into the weav-
ling of this harmonious and brilliant
fabrio The motion Is rapid the action

the sort of a girl the plot of “Secre-

"The Harvester” was issued on Aug-
ust 17th the birthday of the author
Gene Stratton Porter The book is
particularly appropriate as an Issue in
the nature of a birthday gift for It Is
the third of her booka dealing with the
Liraberlost woods of Indiana which
she Immortalized In "Freckles” and "A
Girl of the Llmberlost” AIbo the name
and the sentiment -of the book well
fit in with the late summer when the
harvest is in full swing
The wonderful descriptive genius of
the author a word-painting supreme
Is depleted In thiB excerpt:
“On came the figure and ns
It drew closer he could see that It was
a very tall extremely slender woman
wrapped in soft robes of white She
stepped along the slender line of the
gold bridge with grace unequalled As
she neared the shore the Harvester's
blood began to race in his veins and
ilia lips parted in wonder for soon
she was close eqough to prove that
she was young and very lovely Heavy
braids of dark hair rested on her head
as a coronet Her forehead was low
and white Her eyes were wide open
wells of darkness her rounded cheeks
faintly pink and her red lips smiling
Invitation Her throat was long very
white and the hands that caught up
the fleecy robe around her were rose:
colored and slender
"8he was coming straight toward
him wonderful alluring lovely beyond
any woman the Harvester ever had
seen Straightway the fountains of
twenty-six years' repression overflowed
In the breast of the man and all bis
being ran In a wave of desire toward
her On she came and now her tender
feet were on the white gravel
He opened his lips but no ' sound came
He struggled to rise but his legs would
not bear his weight Helpleis he sank
against the casing The girl walked to

Adam was the King Pin the blight
particular star ' of tbs coterie of vil-
lage cronies that tipped their chairs
against the walls of Bottom's Ordi-
nary On one particular occasion In-
formation came to him that a certain
pair of bars had been left down
"Well they hadn’t ought to have
been” retorted old Adam indignantly
"Bars Is bars whether they be publlo
or private an' the man that pulls ’em
down without puttin’ 'em up agin is a
man that you'll And to be loose
moraled In other matters”
"It’s the truth as sure as you speak
It Mr Doolittle" said a wiry knocked-
kneed farmer wiffl a hatchet-shaped
face who had sidled up to the group
"It warn’t no longer than yesterday
that I was sayin' the same words to

Doolittle — that a man that’s gone
wrong on Immersion can't be trusted
to keep his hands off the women?”
“I ain’t sayin’ all that Solomon
Hatch” responded old Adam In a
charitable tone "seeln’ that I've never
made up my mind quite clear on those

for its own sake withers and a mighty
sacrifice brings a splendid crowning
"The Rugged Way” by Harold Mor-
ton Kramer Is the story of great
wrong great suffering great renunci-
ation and great reward The scene
opens In an Eastern city where the
hero is overwhelmed by calamity upon
the very evening of his betrothal and
unwilling to admit that It Is not all
the result of his own transgression he
takes the consequences like a man
Later he finds that to re-establish him-
self Ib Indeed treading a “rugged way”
He gives It up and flees to free life In
the great Northwest which the author
knows so well Then comes redemp-
tion through love that declares itself
in the very shadow of horrible death
heroic sacrifice and a climax of unex-
pected joy Mr Kramer presents situ-
ations that bring out the deepest hu-
man emotions and characters of dar-
ing strength while the moral lesson
of the book lsno less striking than
Its dramatic power
When Mr Kramer wrote that dis-
tinct success “The Chrysalis” able
critics declared that he would do even
stronger work They were right as

Francis perry Elliott tho author of

there are three Important events in
connection with tho popularity of the
story — which originally appeared In
novelet form In a popular magazine
The flrft he says was when a
stranger on a train handed him a
magazine remarking “That sir con-
tains the funniest story I ever read
and the beBt— perhaps you would like
to read it It's called The Haunted
Pajamas" The second event was when
a maid in a Boston hotel pointing to
his name on a parcel asked If ho were
the man who wrote “Tho Haunted
Pajamas” In tho magazine "A lady
gave me a copy" she declared "and
the whole push on this floor has read
it” The third and crowning occasion
he says was when the news reached
him that "Dorothy Dlx” finding tho

CHAPTER III— Continued
He lied neer seen her except In the
quiet cm icntionallty of a street dress
lie had In alined her In all sorts of
guises Wien she burst upon him
that way however the sight dazzled
him It was so far beyond any dream
he hud eer Indulged that he could
seniret i ompreliend it He stopped
and stared at her For once his lion
control desi rt- d him There was that
frank open admiration In his glance
of which no one could mistake the
meaning
"You must pardon my surprise”
said Cortnh “F have never seen you
in an evening gown and I confess my
imagination unequal to — ”
“Do you like It?” said the girl nerv-
ously ”1 tm scarcely conscious of It Miss
Haldane” he returned directly ”1 see
only you ”
“How singularly unobservant” she
said lightly recovering her equipoise
"for a man whose business It Ib to buy
snd sell such things not to notice
them”
“In your presence tonight Miss Hal-
dane business la aa far from me aB
If it waa on the other side of the
world It la on the other aide of the
world” he continued swiftly “for this
Is a different world from any In which
I have ever moved and I — ”
Ills speech was broken by the en-
trance of Mrs Haldane and Miss Stew-
art The latter was a fragile grace-
ful charming girl who would have
attracted Instant attention and notice
anywhere except beside her regal
companion and friend Mrs Haldane
waa a not unworthy complement to
the other two These two also were
wearing elaborate dinner gowns
At this moment Haldane followed
by the two other men came in from
the library
“Mr Gormly" began Haldane sen-
ior “I am nnable to get anybody over
tho telephone”
“I am sorry to hear that I suppose
that the wires are down on account of
the storm”
"ExEctly Meanwhile I scarcely
know what to do Could you send a
man on a horse over to my place T”
“I should be glad to do so did I pos-
sess the horse”
“The pair that brought us up from
the lodge?”
"Neither Is broken to saddle I be-
lieve and — but I can send s man over
m foot I have no doubt — ”
"1 baldly think tbM would be pos

sible" interposed Dr Deveaux “I
should not like to be lesponslble for
any man on foot In such a storm as
this"
"I’ll go myself" said Gormly quick-
ly "You Mr Gormly!” exclaimed Mrs
Ha'danc "Why we couldn't think of
such s thing The danger!"
"Madam I have been afoot In worse
storms than this” he answered "when
I was a mere boy In tile far west"
It was the first Intimation anybody
from New York hod had aa to any
period of Gorinly’a life outside of New
York and one of the company at least
pricked up his ears at this remark
and listened attentively
"We eouldn t think of a’lowing you
to do so” said Miss Haldane
"I suppose that pair you have could
hardly take us over?” questioned Liv-
ingstone Haldane
’ I am afraid not" answered Gormly
“They have been driven rather hkrd
today and they are a light pair at
best as you t otlce”
“Well we are thrust upon you then
marooned as It were ”
”1 hope yon won't find my house the
typical desert tslund” answered Gorm-
ly sini'lng "Indeed I scarcely know
what the resources of the establish-
ment are hawng entered into posses-
sion only today: but whatever they
are they are at your service”
"Thpre's no help for it I suppose”
answered Haldane somewhat gloomi-
ly “I guess you will have to keep us
until morning"
"Think how happy you make a lone-
ly old bachelor” returned Gormly "by
being his Christmas guests And If
you will accept this situation as In-
deed 1 fear you must I shall make ar-
rangements so that you can be taken
to your own place on Christmas morn-
ing Let me consult my butler who
was Mr Goodrich's major domo before
T bought the place and see what can
be done ”
A brief conversation with that func-
tionary threw some little cheer over
the situation Gormly’a own ward-
robe which had been sent down
would amply supply the men with
whatever they needed and the butler
Imparted the cheering news that the
lodgekeeper was a married man with
two grown daughter and he had no
doubt that such things aa the women
required might be secured from them
"Send at once” said Gormly quick-
ly “and ask Mrs Bulldn to come up
to tne house and be of what service
enp can to the ladles How are we
off tor bedrooms?"
"Plenty of them sir and all ready
for guests -
"Well see that" they are prepared
and have Mrs Bullen here Immediate-
ly ” ' '
As the butler went off to attend to
these orders Gormly re-entered the
room and found the whole party com-
fortably gathered about the fire He
explained that he had found a wom-
an on the place the lodgekeeper’s
wife that he had sent the station
wagon for her: and that she would be
present doubtless within a half hour
with such indispensable articles of at-
tire as might serve to make ths wom-
en guests at least comfortable
"If you were only In communication
with your shop Mr Gormiy" said Mrs
Haldane — and whether she meant to
be offensive or not Gormly could not
tell — “we would lock nothing”
”1 am sorry for your sake madam
that I am not AM it la we shall have
to do our best with ths limited re-
sources at hand”
Conversation ran on desultorily this
way for s short time when ths butler
announced the arrival of Mrs Bullen
- '
As he did so the tall clock musically
chimed out the hour ot nine
"Now that your woman is here Mr
Gormly” said Mrs Haldane rising
"as I am somewhat fatigued fiom ths
ride rnd the experience I shall retire
to my room I suppose you young
people won't think of going to bed
at tbls unearthly hour?”
"No Indeed” answered Miss Stew-
art "I think I’ll stay awska until
Christmas”
"Will yon go Beekman 7' said Mrs
Haldane addressing her husband
“Why — er — my dear — "
"I was about to propose a table of
bridge" salj Dr Deveaux ?"
"An excellent ides" returned Hal-
dane quickly "but there are six of
us here and — "
"I don’t piny" said Gormly quickly
"I'll stay out also" said Eleanor "I
don't care much for bridge at best”
"Good night” said Mrs Haldane
moving away escorted by the butler
and met outside presently by Mrs
Bullen
"Mr Gormly and I will watch your
game” said Eleanor
"By the way Eleanor may I ask
where you met Mr Gormly?" queried
her father
"He is very much interested in our
social settlement work Many of bis
employees live In the vicinity of the
new settlement house we are building
snd I have had occasion to consult
him at his office a great many times"
'"Ah" said the elder man reflective-
ly wondering bow much might be be-
hind that entirely Innocent statement
Meanwhile a footman arranged a
card table at which the quartet took
their places and Instantly became ab-
sorbed in tbe game Miss Haldane
manifested no special Interest in the
play and at Gormly’s suggestion she
left the hall and went with him Into
the Inviting little library through the
broad open doors that gave arcese to
It from the hall Another fire was
burning there He drew a low cbalr
before It In whlrb she sat down He
himself stood with bis arm resting on
tbe mantel looking down on her
The two were In plain sight from
the bridgo table but as they talked In
low tones their conversation was In-
audible In the hall Haldane glanced
curiously snd uneasily at them from
time to time: but finally becoming
absorbed In his game paid them no
further notice
CHAPTER IV
Mist Haldane Is Charmed and Charm-
Ino "Mr Gormly" began Miss Haldane
'I have not seen you for some time”
"Not for two months and eleven
days Miss Haldane” answered Gorm-
ly quietly
"Gracious!” exclaimed the astonish-
ed girl “How pat you have the time'
Do you keep a calendar of my visits
to your office?”
“1 have a marvelous memory for de-
tails which I wtBb to remember” said
the man
“And I am so much interested In —
the settlement house that — How dors
It progress by the way?” he contin-
ued gravely as If bis reco'lectlon of
anything connected with her was a
mere matter of course
"Oh beautifully You see there Is
nothing to consult you about now It
Is all In the architect's and builders
hands You have been so helpful to
me I really don't know what I should
have done without you”
“And von have of course respected
my confidence? No one knows any-
thing about my connection with the
enterprise?”
“No one at all ”
"Not even your Tattler ?’’
"Certainly not I never discuss busi-
ness wH$ my father nor does he
discuss business with me”
“And yet” said Gormly quickly "I
should think he might discuss busl-
nBB with you to advantage”
"Wliat do you mean?" asked the
girl
"I am a business man Miss Hnldane
accustomed to deal with men and
women in a business way and much
depends upon my ability to estimate
the capaelty of those with whom I
work I have not often seenia woman
or even a man with a better head for
business than you have"
It waa the deftest thing the man
could have said to her Women she
knew were not naturally business-
like and to have such qualities at-
tributed to her was the subtlest kind
of flattery It came too from a man
who was a power in the business
world and was therefore the more
valuable
Bottle Floated
Picked Up In the Azores Three Veer
After Being Cast Adrift Off"
Carolina Coaet
Floating sluggishly at the mercy of
the waves tor over three years a pint
bottle containing the address of Wil-
liam H Wlndolph this city traveled
across tbe Atlantic ncean and waa
finally picked up off the eastern coast
of the Azores about five weeks ago
The wayward travels of the little
bottle are most mysterious It crossed
tbe Atlantic or at least reached tbe
other shore whether currents or
winds took it miles In detour before
It reached lta destination la a subject
of conjecture
On January 27 1907 Mr Wlndolph
on his way to Tampa and Key West
passed down tbe coast of the Caro-
lines In a Merchants and Miners
steamship the Merrlmac Off North
Carolina In an idle moment be put bis
card within a whisky bottle and push-
ing in the cork against the rail of the
vessel tossed It overboard Until It
disappeared from sight In tha green
waves Mr Wlndolph watched the tiny
adventurer never thinking to hear
from it again
Three and one-half years after ths
card had been sent out on the sea n
strange letter come to him from the
Ashing firm of Manuel Vasconcallea ft
Co Spain Within the snvelops was
tha same card which ha had sent out
unstained by the water uninjured aft
ft la very good of too to aay that”
said ths girl smiling pleasantly in ap-
preciation “and 1 am more proud of it
because everybody says you ere such
a fine business man yourself”
“1 should like to do something real-
ly worth while” said the girl after a
little pause "I like people who do
something worth while”
”8o do I” said ths man with obvi-
ous meaning
"Mr Gormly" she exclaimed Im-
petuously "why don’t you do some-
thing worth while?"
Gormly smiled "My dear young
lady" be answered — really he- was
old enough to be her father be
thought half sadly as he noted his
form of speech — "I have tbe largest
store In ths world I have agents in
pvery civilised country and many that
Ore uncivilized I own and control a
fleet of steamers I have my private
woolen mills and silk mills snd fac-
tories 1 suppose there are ten thou-
sand people In my employ I can give
you a check for another million for
your settlement work as often as you
wish It and — ’’
"These are all very well Mr Gorm-
ly” said ths girl gravely "They spell
tremendous material success they
show your ability snd ncumen In ths
eyes of tha world they count for a
great deal Indeed I And lately that
tbey are counting more and more
but they don't really amount to any-
thing after all What is money wbat
are power and Influence? My father
tor Instance was born with more than
be could possibly spend mdre than be
knew what to do with inherited from
thrifty ancestors who had the wit to
buy land when It could be -bought for
a song He has influence power
What does It amount to? I want him
to do something really to do some-
thing In the world for the good of
mankind I am preaching to you just
as I preach to him”
"Do you look upon me as you would
a father?” asked Gormly quickly
"Why no not ezactly Certainly
not” answered the girl
“I am forty-four you know”
“No I didn’t know but what If you
are? You are still a young man My
father Is flfty-flve and I don't call him
old”
"Wonderful consideration from twenty-two!”
said Gormly smiling
“Well” resumed tbe girl "I was
saying that you ought to do something
In life You have made yourself You
started with little or nothing If I may
believe the newspaper accounts of
you ’’
"Have you been reading them?”
“Every word” answered the girl
“I wag quite proud of being able to
say to my friends that I knew you and
what tbey said about you was true”
Never in his life had Gormly been
hargler than at this frank spontan-
eous expression of approval
“You ought to put these great tal-
ents of yours at tbe service ot your
fellow men not In buying and selling
but In doing something for them” she
ran on
“Don't you think that in Belling
them honest goods at a fair profit In
telling them the strict and only truth
about what you have to sell In allow-
ing them the utmost freedom of re-
turn and exchange In providing gen-
erously for employees Is doing serv-
ice to your fellow men?”
“Certainly It Is It Is doing service
to the little world which you touch
a larger world perhaps than most of
us can touch But I want you to do
something I want every man and
every woman who baa the ability to
do something in a great splendid
w av "
“Rut what would you have me do?”
“I don't know” answered the girl
“I don't know what I would have any-
body do but there are so many thirds
to be done so many wrongs to be
righted so many things to be achieved
The great man goes out and makes
opportunities Part of his greatness
I take It consists in seeing what there
Is to do Ruskic says somewhere that
the greatest thing anynody can do ts
to see something If I were a great
woman I could answer your question
better: but I am only — ’’
“I tnlnk you are a great woman"
said Gormly softly “and I would be
perfectly willing to take your answer
and abide by It”
"I would not have It that way" an-
swered the girl dreamily “When my
father asks me what I would have him
do I say to him ‘Go and see' He
laughs at me most people laugh at
me You don't Mr Gormly"
