PARTNERS FOR LIFE
B GEORGE ELMER COBB.


Things look pretty dubious, you
see' observed Lawyer Bailey.
There is no doubt that my fathers
business is in critical condition.
Well, l am here to mend it."
Il hope you do and you look as If
you are going to give the experiment
good, hard try" observed the attor-
ney with an admiring glance at the
clear-faced, supple-limbed young man
before him.
Percival Deane had been called from
the midst of splendid attanments at
college to realize the true nobility
of self-sacrificing father. Deane &
Marvin had been to the son synonym
for stability and profit. 1t was an old
iron manufacturing business and al
though Percival had known that it had
got somewhat behind the times, he
had never mistrusted that it had been
narrowly grazing the edge of ruin for
many months
The situation is easily told" said
Mr.. Bailey. 1.-TWO years ago your
fathers partner, Mr. Marvin, induced
him to agree to investigate chance
to purchase a Peruvian concession to
cost $4,000. This they had every
assurance could be sold within year
at an enormous advance. Nearly all
the capital of the firm was turned
into cash. Mr.. Marvin departed on
his mission. He wired from San
Francisco and since that time not a
word has been received from him"
"They think he was murdered-rob-
bed?"
That's the only way they can ex-
plain this unaccountable silence"
agreed the lawyer. "Cramped for
capital, your father has seen the bust
ness fairly go to pieces. He kept the
true state of affairs from you. He has
even paid Mrs. Marvin the old liberal
drawing account of her husband. She
has daughter, Elsie, just finishing
her education. Poor woman! it was
severe blow when your father broke
down physically and mentally and she
learned the bitter truth as to how
affairs stand"
Percival Deane fguratively took of
his coat and started in to make time
and ability count. The first thing he
did was to send his father and q

The trunk which she took with her
was naturally covered with labels
from the different hotels, steamships
ana expresses which she had visited
or used. and, though it had been an
unusually expensive and very strong
trunk, it was somewhat in need of re.
pair by the time she landed in this
city. She accordingly sent it to the
place where she had bought it and
asked how much it would cost to have
1t put in good order.
Imagine her surprise to receive q
letter from the firm, telling her that a
thorough rehabilitation of the trunk
would cost a certain moderate sum.

in His Opinion.

Can flowers feel pain? This is a
question to which French psychologists
are giving attention at the present
time.
M. l.. Chassaigne believes that they
can and do. His opinion is based on
interesting experiments. Taking a mi
mosa plant, he exposed it to the action
of heat. The leaves writhed as If in

the skeptics; proof of sensibility,
says M. Chassaigne since it does not

ances of being in deep sleep. If it
be now subjected to the action of heat
1t remains unaffected.
M. Chassaigne has repeated the
same experiment with many different
kinds of plants. but always with the
same result. 1T is maintained" he
says, that plants do not suffer pain
because they have no nerves.
Many Psychologists hold that nerves
are but the extension Of protoplasm,
modified and adapted to fulfill the re.
CURED function. Hence the proto-
plasm of plants can perfectly well act
as rudimentary nervous system"

But what at, my child?" inquired
nor mother sOlicitOuSlV.

But what at, my chlld!" inquired
her mother solicitously.
"Oh, l can surely fill in somewhere.
In the old busy days of the factory
you had some one to keep the books
and take charge of the Office, Mr..
Deane. Can l not be Of some service
there now?'
Had she been a stranger, he would
have said no. AS he reflected how
that lovely presence would be con-
slant comfort and encouragement, Per.
cival said yes, and SO It was arranged.
How tremendously they worked to-
gether that first week! What joy
it was mutually to feel that they were.
merging their exertions for the sake
of their dear ones! Percival attended
to the packing and Grating of articles
ordered. Elsie did all the billing and
correspondence. Often she insisted on
aiding Rercival at his work. Her soft
silky hair sweeping his face, her per-
fumed breath, the touch Of her fairy
hands would send a rare thrill to his
SOUL He could scarcely control the
impulse to take her in his arms and
tell her how he loved her.
Then came to Percival Deane the
disappointment of his life. A young
man came to the village. For two
days he was almost constantly with
Elsie. 1t was whispered about the vii
lage that he was the brother of Elsies
closest school friend and her fiance
Elsie came back to work more shy
and self conscious than before. She
was still kindly and helpful, but there
seemed to be barrier now between
them. One day she came to where
Percival was busy.
"Mr. Deane,' she said, II find that
while you have been sending mother
regular allowance, you do not draw
any money yourself"
"Oh, that's all right insisted Per.
cival brightly. Il will take my share
when the collections come in"
But we must not be thus priv.
legged"
II fancied perhaps you particular
ly needed your allowance-just now
why, what do you mean?" inquired
Elsie innocently.
II heard you might leave here. That
is, I fancied-well, as you are en-.
gagged"
"Engaged?" repeated Elsie vaguely.
"Oh, you mean to my recent visitor?"
and she burst into a merry laugh. HE
was a very good friend, but anything
farther than that was never possible
with me and utterly cut of the ques.
ton with him-when he learned how
poor was"
Eyes," observed Percival. I'VE are
both poor"
But, oh! so glad to share that
poverty cheerfully, almost happy"
you say that" cried Percival, un.
able to restrain his fervent emotions,
and her downcast eyes, her blushing
face told him that his love was re-
turned.
One evening a pale, travel-worn man
came to the Marvin home-the miss
ing partner What a story he had to
tell of adventure, Imprisonment, es-
cape, the 100000 safely hidden, the
final investment and-wealth!
What a reunion it was, when Mr..
Deane was called home to learn the
joyful news! What glowing prospects
presented for the partners-and Elsie
and Percival partners for life!
