Extracted from Munsey's magazine, August 1912, pp. 731-753. Accompanying illustrations by C. D. Williams omitted.

The Great Gilmore, founder of the fashionable cult of Purified Thought, having set his trap for money, used money as a lure. Everything in his office was genuine—that is to say, everything but the man himself. Dr. Buchanan Gilmore—doubters might see his diploma displayed in the waiting-room—believed in a "good front" as firmly as he believed in the great truth that for every fleecy lamb born into this world the shears are appointed and the time set.
