The Hieroglyphic

Peter Barton leaves his wealth to his niece Mary, disinheriting his dissipated son Edgar, who steals the will. Jack Smart, a rascal and an associate of Edgar's, keeps close watch upon him. At revolver-point Jack compels Edgar to surrender the will to him. Obliged to go to work, Edgar's cousin Mary takes a position as a reporter and meets Tom Swayne, who falls in love with her. Tom sees Jack Smart in a restaurant, and after the villain leaves, Tom picks up a menu card upon which Smart has written some hieroglyphics. Mary shows him an envelope which she picked up in her uncle's room, where Smart took the will from Edgar, after he had stolen it. Tom compares it and the hieroglyphics on it with those on the menu card: they are the same. Smart agrees to return the will to Barton for $10,000. Mary and Tom enter the restaurant where Tom found the menu card, and see Smart enter and leave. They ask the waiter who wrote the hieroglyphics on the card. He tells them the man who has just left. Tom and Mary trail him. Smart returns to the restaurant and meets Edgar Barton. They enter a private dining room. Barton passes over the money to Smart. Edgar is applying a match to the will when a policeman, with Tom and Mary, enters. The policeman rescues the will and gives it to Mary.

Women of the West

While due credit must be given to those women who have, by their wisdom, counsel and support made our domestic conditions what they are to-day, the wonderful prosperity of the United States as a whole is due to the extraordinary resources of the west, and therefore the places of honor in the niches of history rightfully belong to the women who so nobly assisted in settling and populating the great west. Stop and reflect what fortitude those women showed in venturing into the unknown wilderness, what heroism they displayed, surrounded by hostile Indians, and sacrificing their lives to eventually benefit all mankind. History is replete with the many instances of those acts, but mere words can but poorly represent to the mind the details of the exact incidents. To be able to view the actual occurrence cannot but indelibly impress upon the mind what we really owe these women pioneers. To see the simple life of these people, their sports, pleasures and hardships, and how, when the men folk are attending a country election, the red men take advantage of the situation and pillage and burn their homes. But better still to visually observe how these women, reared to danger, bravely protected their lives and property and also the wild rides of some of the women to warn their neighbors and bring the men to their rescue.
