Young Dr. Charli's Dorrance, after
being graduated from u medleul col
lege, became physician in charge of a
hospital. Here he caught an infectious
disease that left him much reduced.
A year passed, and. since lie had not
improved, lie concluded to take a sen
•oynge. So he sailed for Naples.
Whether it was the effect of the cli
mate of Italy or the beautiful sur
roundings of Naples, the doctor begun
to improve as soon as he reached that
city.
Dorrance was ehnrtned b.v the bay
of Naples. Its beauty has been long
renowned, and justly. The longer one
lives on its shores the more delightful
it becomes to him. A central figure Is
Vesuvius, whose cone is seldom, if
ever, without a light smoke. From the
sea the ground rises to a height that
may be called hilly or mountainous.
Hlsing out of the sea some ten or fif
teen miles from shore are the volcanic
islands of Ischia and Capri, usually
softened by a light mist, while the
crowning beauty is the ever chaugiug
color of the water through every hue
from a bright silver to the darkest
blue.
Quite likely it was these attractions
appealing to an artistic element in the
young doctor's makeup that led him to
settle at Sorrento and practice medi
cine there. A constant flow of tourists
passes through the town, and many of
these are Americans. A few make it
their homes. Among both tourists and
residents Dr. Dorrance found patients.
There is one detraction from the
pleasure of a sojourn in southern Italy.
One cannot feel safe in wandering uu
protected about the country. There is
a town in the Alban lulls, a dozen
miles from Home, of some 500 persons
all of whom arc criminals. When the
mounted police see strangers in this
vicinity they keep a protecting watcli
over them.
One morning Miss Alice Townsend,
an American girl staying at one of
tlu* hotels at Sorrento, situated on tile
high cliff overlooking the bay of Na
ples. asked the proprietor if it was
safe for her to walk on a certain road
leading out of the town. Ilis reply
was. "That road is perfectly safe."
This indicated that the other roads
were not safe. Miss Townsend had a
fancy for going about alone and chafed
at not being able to do so. She soon
got tired of walking on the road men
tioned and longed fora new route.
One afternoon she struck out. resolv
ing to go to a height from which she
might look down on the bay. At any
rate, that in what she told a compan
ion she intended to do, who declined to
accompany her beyond the outskirts
of the town. When night came Miss
Townsend had not returned. Her fa
tiler gathered a posse to go out to look
for her, but returned in the morning
without her or any news of her.
It wus apparent that the girl had
been kidnaped for ransom. At least
this was the hope, for no one could sa.v
that she had not been murdered. The
police advised Mr. Townsend to wait
for a message demanding money for
bis daughter's release, when they
hoped to be able to make an attempt to
capture the kidnapers. The unhappy
father could do nothing but wait, but
he resolved that if the demand was
made he would pay the amount with
out endangering his daughter's life.
Several days passed, and no word
was heard from the missing girl. The
police were urged to take action in the
matter; but. whether they were ineffi
dent or knew the enemy they hud to
deal with, they made no move.
One afternoon a boy called at Dr
Dorrance’s office and handed him a bit
of paper on which was scrawled, in a
hand denoting an illiterate writer, a
request to call and see a sick man llv
ing on the heights directly back of the
town. The doctor, who made it a
point to answer all calls at once, took
up a satchel in which he carried a
stock of drugs and Instruments and,
getting into n calash standing nt the
door, took in the boy and started on
his quest.
He had asceuded part way to the
summit when he was met by a man
armed with a carbine and told to halt
The boy got out of the vehicle and the
man got in. Then he said:
“Doctor. I know all about you, and
you may be sure that you are in no
danger so long as you do what is re
quired of you in attending a sick per
son. Drive on."
Dorrance. in going about the court
try. relied entirely on his profession
for protection. Realizing that to arm
himself for. the purpose of defense
would avail nothing and believing that
criminals would not molest one the
might have occasion to call upon to
heal them or save their lives, he made
his visits without any protection what
ever.
The sun went down, night came and
the two men had not reached their
destination. It was long past dark
when the doctor's guide directed him
to turn off the road and. shortly afte
doing so. stop nt what had once been
a villa, but what was now half ruin
and half habitable. Before alightin
bis companion said to him:
“The young lady who was capture
few dnys ngo is here. She has be
come so frightened that we can do
nothing with her and arc afraid she
may die on our hands, in which case
we would not get n ransom for her.
You are to give her some medicine to
quiet her; then you must curry back
with you a demand for 50.U00 lire
($10.0(Hh, on receipt of which she will
be suffered to return. You have also
to say that on any sign of an attempt
on the part of the police to rescue her
or capture us she will at once be kill
ed."
As soon as tliese Injunctions had
been delivered the doctor was conduct
ed into the house. lie was glad to get
news of Miss Townsend, whose disap
pearance had naturally greatly moved
all persons—residents tud strangers—
in Sorrento. Resolving to keep ids eyes
open for some loophole by which to
■eliove tier from her position without
endangering her safety and if possible
lead to the capture of her captors, ho
entered .the house and was led to a
room, where he found the young lady.
She had worn herself out with hys
terics, lying ou a bed in a state bonier,
ing on collapse. Another man was in
attendance.
Dorrance and his patient bud not met
before. When lie entered the room her
eyes were closed, and every few mo
ments she gave way to a nervous
twitching. lie opened his satchel and,
tnklng out a little syringe, gave her a
hypodermic injection in the arm. In
tended to quiet her. This done, lie
awaited the result of his treatment.
Meanwhile his brain was at work in
another direction. Finally lie said to
the men:
‘It may be necessary to save her life
to send to Sorrento for medicine. Have
you any one to send?"
‘Tony will go.” said the man who
had been the doctor's conductor.
Another person should go to the
captive’s father and get the ransom,
for her life depends on her being freed
nt once."
Cannot one person do both er
rands?"
“That is for you to say."
“Well, Luigi can attend to that."
"Will there be no other person than
you left to assist me?"
No. Wbat more assistance do you
waut than I can give you?"
“No matter. You will do.”
These questions were intended to
discover how many persons were pres
ent. and it was evident that the num
ber was three. Dorrnnee said nothing
more, hut sat looking at his patient,
who was gradually getting more calm,
lie would have liked to attack these
men and rescue the girl, hut what
could he do with three armed men,
while he had no weapon at nil? Pres
ently an expedient occurred to him,
hut ho gave no sign of It.
The patient opened her eyes and
saw a stranger looking down upon her.
She said nothing, but the doctor thought
she was sufficiently calmed to notice
that lie was of a different class from
her captors. He would have been glad
to say something to her by way of en
couragement. also something to assist
him in carrying out an embryo plan,
but there were two men in the room
watching him. and lie dared not. An
expedient occurred to him.
Do you feel faint?" lie asked in
Italian.
Miss Townsend did not understand
Italian and did not reply. The doctor
told the men that ho must speak to his
patient in English. They consulted
aud finally permitted him to do so.
“I am going to try to rescue you.”
said the doctor. “Be on your guard
and ready to take advantage of what
I may do."
Hope sprang into the girl's eyes, and,
fearing to betray herself, she closed
them and groaned. The doctor turned
to his satchel and began to hunt for
some drag, finally lighting on a small
bottle. Though lie had refrained from
carrying arms, lie had always kept in
his satchel something that might lie
used in an emergency in lieu of arms.
The bottle lie took out of the satchel
was marked “Aqua Fortis." Putting
the mouth of his syringe into it, he
drew up the piston, sucking up a cou
ple of ounces of the liquid. Then, lay
ing it down beside him. lie naked for
pencil and paper and wrote a request
to send whatever ransom wus demand
ed and on no account to attempt a
rescue or a capture of the bandits.
This paper be gave to her conductor,
who read it and handed It to Tony, tell
ing him to give it to Luigi with in
structions to set out with it at once
for Sorrento.
The doctor listened to hear the mes
senger depurt. but made no move for
half an hour nfter he had gone. lie
was gathering his forces for the two
remaining men. Presently he said:
“I must give her another Injection.”
Taking up ills syringe, he asked one
of the men to hold it for n moment,
and. extending it just ns the bandit
was about to take it. Dorrance gave
him half the contents in his eyes, and
before the other had realized what had
been done he received the balance in
the same place.
Nothing beyond the yells of the two
villains was needed to tell the cap
tive what had been done. With mar
velous recuperative strength she
syirang from the bed. and both she and
the doctor made a dash for the door,
leaving the two men blinded, howling,
groping. The doctor's calash stood at
the door. and. entering it., the couple
lashed the horse to the road, then down
the declivity.
When soon after midnight the cou
ple drove up to the hotel where the
Townsends were stopping and her par
ents were informed that their daugh
ter had arrived there followed a happy
meeting, the young doctor coming in
for encomiums innumerable.
What recompense Dr. Dorrance
received for the rescue has not yet
been decided, but rumor has It that it
will tie Miss Towuseud.

Love is the flower of the soul. It is
the holieRt aud sweetest of the heart-
forces which prompt our actions. It is
more precious to most men and women
than all the wealth in the world, because
priceless; it is one of the joys of heaven.
Though without price, love is a gift,
and can bear no relation to selfishness.
Love is the sweetest, purest, and yet
the strongest, of all human influences.
It will endure suffering, withstand
trials and overcome temptations. Love
lifts us out of our sordid selves, and
then, only then, will we realize that the
outgoing of love and helpfulness is but
the incoming of a “peace which passeth
understanding’’—a joy which fills the
fountains of the heart.
A true husband will receive his wife
into the most confiding partnership.
Woman is neither superior nor inferior
to man. She is only different. A man
may have professional secrets from his
wife, but never a personal secrets. It
is well to confide to wives business
matters. Woman has an instinct at
timpR superior to man’s reason.
