PARTNERS FOR LIFE
BY 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, am here to mend it,
Il hope. you do and you look as IL
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 attainments at
college to realize the true nobility
of self-sacrificing father Deane &
Marvin had been to the son u 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 Peruvian concession to
cost 100000 This they had every
assurance could be sold within a 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 busi-
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
a severe blow when your father broke
down physically and mentally and she
learned the bitter truth as to how
affairs stand"
Percival Deane figuratively took off
his coat and started in to make time
and ability count The first thing he
did was to send his father and a

sort, as suggested by the family ply
sician. AT the end of a week he had
the muddled affairs of the firm on a
tangible basis.
1t doesn't look very promising" he
told himself. The factory can do no
new work until the debts are paid off
and some fresh capital secured There
is, however. a big stock OF foundry
and machine shop supplies on hand
If this could be sold off it would bring

plan to create a demand"
Deane & Marvin owned exclusive
models and patterns of a large number
OF utilities in requirement daily all
over the country. The young man di-
rected a circular tc all of the old
patrons of the firm. He stated the
conditions truthfully offered reduc-
ton in price and hoped for the best
1t was Saturday evening when he
paid a visit to Mrs. Marvin He had
known her casually for years, but
since being away at school had not
seen her often.
We shall be able to pay you quite
a weekly allowance, Mrs. Marvin" he
stated cheerily, land when I get
things Strengthened around / hope to
be able to give you the regular amount
you have heretofore received"
You are most kind and consider
ate,' declared Mrs. Marvin. >"I have
felt that as my husband took away
with him the greater part of the cap
ital of the firm ! could scarcely ex-
pect anything from the business"
You shall receive q share as long
as the business lasts" insisted Perci-
val. 1t is my fathers wish and NV
own as well. / understand that your
daughter is within year of complet.
ing her education We must see that
there is no break in that"
But there will be. am not going
back to school, broke in a new voice
and Elsie Marvin entered the room.
Her beauty, the fascinating influence
OF her charming face made PerciyaI
doubt If this was the child he had
played with years in the past. A
glance from her beautiful eyes gave
