MY NEW
AUTO
Br ROBERt MATHEWSON
1 had Just bought u new automobile -
ore of tlx- new tlx (it muk^-for 91,060
and was trying It on the road. It waa
a very pretty machine to seat Ave peo
ple. the tonneau bring of aluminium
It was rather early In the spring to
! ride for pleasure, for the road* were
J itill execrable, but I ntuck to tti? best
of them and was delighted with the
performance of my vehicle.
I waa driving along. feeling eery fine
, tn my new toy. for the purchase of
j which I had been saving for a couple
of years, when I overtook a young
; man and a young w<mnn hurrying
along, the man carrying ? suit case, the
woman bcMing np lier skill* to keep
them from the mud The man. hear
tng an auto, looked bark and. s?vi'.ig
me omiiug. stood in tbe middle of the
road and motioned for me to stop. 1
palled up. of course He was fashion
ably dronacd. a* *a? tlie girl, who was
as pretty as a pern h.
"Bet* pardon for stopping you. sir.
Won Id yob mind giving us a lift?
We are anxious to catch a train on
the C.. I*, and It. railroad. If you
would take us over t!>ere you have no
idea what a favor yon would do u*."
Now. the C- L and B. railroad nins
parallel with the road I was on end
can only be reached by crossroads
which I knew to be in bad condition
I bad no mind to put uiy mat bine to
sorb a test, so i told the gentleman
that I was sorry, but I badn't time to
go so far, whereupon be took me
into his confidence, telling me that be
and the girl were a runaway couple
The girl's father was de-.id set on her
?nrTying a broken down Itritisb noble
man three tiroes her age aud was to
have taken her abroad the next day
to be married, the o!d fel'ow In-ins so
Inflrm that he couldn't stand a Journey
to America
I turned to look at the ewnple. and
the girl gave me an npt>ealiug ctanre
that won me
"What station do i imi wish to
reach?" I asked
"Carrington."
"That's fifty n.lles "
"With this splendid machine you can
do It in an hour; tertmuly in on hour
and a half."
"Not on the roads I shall have to
use."
Tbe girl put her handkerchief to her
eyes and tie pin to cfj At the s;ime
time we heard the distant rbug of an
??to coming at fn'.l speed.
"We are Mil" she wailed.
"My friend," said the lover In a
tremulous voice, "we are rich and able
to pay you any price for the u<e of
your auto Name It."
I had no mind either to sell my auto
or to take advantage of the necessities
of a pair of lovor\ "All right," I said:
"I'll take you over, but not for j?ay
All tbe world Hives ? hirer, and I'm a
lover myself."
I let her out and on reaching the
next road that led toward the railroad
turned Into It S?ion after thi* we
heard the antomobile behind us pass
Ithe road we bad taken, but when It
pulled up. returned and followed us
we know that It was after as The
awn IoiUihI very ncnwij, and the girl
? was quite hysterical. For a matter
of ten miles we were >?? a very fair
road, then struck one not so good. I
had distanced the pursuing father on
, the fair n?ad. bat had scar.^ely entered
o|km. the Inferior one when I heard
an ominous chaff -drag. indicating that
he was not far In the rear I put on
full speed, but we began to bounce,
and with every "thank yon. ma'am."
I winced. I hid not intended to ex
pose my auto to such a strain I
slowed up.
"For heaven's sake. r<> on?" cried the
I girl
The noNe i-ehlnd sonndlne nearer 1

to me. "Slow up for a moment." I did
so. and to tny surprise he )ump?d on!
w?th the suit cane and took to fhe

"fio on." i?aid the #rtrl.
Not understanding the strange pro
eeeding I did not qnlie know what to
do and sat thinking about It when I
felt something cold at the back of my
neck. Turning, I saw the girl poking
a revolver at me.
j "More on mighty ?|nlek." she said
j In a man's role*.
There was nothing for it but to do
: her bidding. I knew now that I had
