By DWIGHT NORWOOD -M-H-P-H-d-H-H-M-H-H-I-H-H-!* 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.

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.
