Love Aflame

One of the warriors decides he wants the king`s favorite, and is about to carry her off by force, when flames burst forth from the sacred volcano, and according to the custom, the king is forced to accept the challenge for his supremacy. The favorite throws herself on the beach in despair, and is seized by white traders who hasten from the island. Betty Mason, whose only regret is that she is not a boy, is excited on learning that her cousin, Reginald, is to visit her father; but when she finds he is sissified, her feelings change. Reginald, however, falls in love, and although her father is pleased at the idea of Betty settling down, she runs away, leaving a note that she has gone west, wearing her brother`s clothes, and if Reginald can catch her she will marry him. In a city club three young men are discussing women`s rights. Jack Calvert declares he can start without a cent and reach Constantinople by November 6, but that no woman can do it.
