Professor Woods a pleasing faced,
pleading-eyed girl had appeared at his

estly, Mr. Tyler is not the desperate
criminal the world adjudges him. He
is reckless. he is tempted, but he has
been plundered, crushed down, in pow

enemy, but I-ah. yes, know him.
At heart he is hero, a martyr!
The professor regarded the soulful

you could do that, we would go away

HOLDS HORSE AS SECURITY
Four-Footed Prowler Feasted on Mrs.
BoyIe's Butter, But Her Turn
is to Come.

The cowpunchers of the wild and
woolly west have nothing on" Mrs.
Mary Boyle of Patterson avenue, Bal
timore. when it comes to the nimble
art of throwing lariat.
Mrs Boyle had spent a busy morn
ing in her kitchen. Finding that she
had over four pounds of fresh dairy
butter left over she placed it on a
platter in the yard to solidify, the heat
of the kitchen having reduced its con-
sistency.
Half an hour later Mrs. Boyle went
into the yard to get the butter, but,
like Old Mother Hubbard in the nurs-
cry legend, when she got there the
platter was bare"
In place of the butter, however, was
a large dapple gray horse, whose color
scheme and design suggested the now
almost extinct rocking equine without
which no childrens nursery was at one
time complete.
The noble steed was engaged in pol
ishing the platter But when he
CHANGED to look up and saw Mrs. Boyle
the equine hobo gave succession OF
loud and penetrating neighs and
turned tail
Not so FAST" quoth Mrs. Boyle A
moment later a lasso improvised from
the domestic clothesline encircled the
neck of the dappled steed, causing him
to rear on his launches.
The unwilling captive is being held
as hostage by Mrs. Boyle, who de-
clares that she will not turn the ami
NAL over to it's owner until she re
ceives remuneration for her stolen
butter.-New York Sun.
