...well known. The Abduction From the Harem is not. The story is simple: A Spanish maid kidnaped by pirates and sold to a Turk, almost rescued by her lover, is finally released from the harem through the courtesy of the speakable Turk.

The Matthew Knowle novel provides funds and Author Owen provides our hero with his conception of a perfect woman, a small divorcee with every quiet grace and no questions. When the posthumous production of the late John Garth's first play is a huge success; when Mrs. Garth, penitent, lies gravely ill; when Matthew Knowle sees the grown son that John Garth sired, the divorcee, Julia, acts "sportingly." Wrench though it is for her, she starts John...
