IN TYRANT'S GRASP But the Appearance of a Minis- tering Angel Set Marvin Farrar Free. By GEORGE ELMER COBB. Marvin Farrar paced up and down the office of Peter Moore, lawyer, in & no enviable frame of mind. The very thought that he was forced to wait and possibly later truckle with an in- dividual of the homo-hyena genus, Moore, irritated him. The outcome of any kind of ap interview impending could be only loss, care and a recogni- tion of the fact that he was in the grasp of a tyrant who would exact the last drop of blood tribute before he released nis unfortunate victim, Moore, pettifogger and rascal, had not yet arrived, and young Farrar galled under a yoke already fitted to his shoulders. There was a timid knock at the door, and he sald “Come in,” mechanically. “Are you in want of an office boy?” Inquired a lad, of course, but neat attire, with a bronzed, honest country face, eager, hopeful, courte- ous. What cared Marvin Farrar for office ! boys! He would scarcely'recommend one to such a curmudgeon as Peter Moore. In his present state of mental disturbance interest in others; sym- pathy, even ordinary politeness were || seattered to the winds. He started a scowl at the intruder. Then some- thing in the wistful earnest face ap- pealed to his better instincts. “I fancy not, son,” replied the higher self Farrar, who did not, how- ever, feel particularly elevated at just that moment. “Looking for work?” “For three days, and no luck,” was the reply, “and"—the little fellow choked up, then manfully dashed away a stray tear or two ana added resolutely: “I've got to find some- thing to do today.” “You mean—hungry?” guessed the quick-witted Farrar, reading correct- ly the expression of the slightly pal- 11d face and tired eyes. “Yes, you do. Don't explain. Here, go get a ‘ood! i ‘,4, N |’1‘ .. ~ g, 9 1 q gl w,. Z R & p &5 “There ls Your Note.” square meal and you'll be in better trim to buckle up agalnst disappoint- ment. Try the department stores,” he shouted after the boy, as the lat- ter, bubbling over with gratitude and delight, a bright silver dollar in his hand, went on his way with a shin- ing face, On the heels of the departing lad Peter Moore bustled in and the in- fluence of a kind deed was lost on the young man as he sat down facing the evil cormorant—sleek, oily, rapacious, The lawyer threw up 'the window opening on a court for ventilation, and briskly drew some documents from his desk. He selected one. He held it up for the inspection of his visitor, “There is your note, Mr. Farrar,” he sald, “due a month ago; sum $2,000, duly signed and no notation of pay- ment. It is one of a number of notes which Luke Darrel put up with us for collateral six months ago. He failed to redcem it. As our property, we must insist on payment.” “But it has been paid already, as I wrote you,” declared Farrar insistent- Iy. “Have you a receipt? “I took none. I had every confl- dence in the world in Luke Darrell I met him on the street, on my way to his cffice to take up the note. He accepted the money and promised that the cancelled note would be mailed to me nextday. The ensuing one I learned he had absconded—a bankrupt, forger, and fugitive from Justice. The lawyer shrugged his shoulders In a bored way as if all that was a well-riddled story. “We wili give you forty-eight hours to pay the note or renew it with your property as security,” was his ulti matum, and he accompanied his grin perturbed visitor to the door, held i for him, and bowed politely, not not fng that the momentary air curren played with t on his de amid a bed Marvin made over to b There was &n encumbrance upon it which Marvin had been able to pay off He had, however, released the mort gage and Darrell had taken his note for $3000. Marvin had sav? up and paid it off, as he claimed. Then he had begun fond dreams of another savings period to furnish up a home for his flance, Winitred Thearle. And now—two years' hard work lost, a mournful message to take to poor Winnie! It was pitiful, but he could not afford to lose heart. With- in an hour he was at the Thearle home and was telling the whole sad story to Winnle, sobbing brokenly on |hll shoulder at his misfortune and distress, And while the dejected couple were comforting one another as best they might, a veritable ministering angel was on the way with the joyous balm of rare good news. THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAK ELAND, FLA, JULY 28, 1913. | The little fellow Marvin had helped, | | and then completely forgotten, had made for the nearest restaurant with his precious suver dollar. He walked | into 1t fairly famished. He walked out of it with the satisfaction and con- tent of a magnate. It chanced that the restaurant faced on the court be- low the offices of Lawyer Moore. And Tom Chubbs—for that was his name —noted two papers fluttering' along of course Tom knew nothing of that. “Luke Darrell.” the note Lawyer Moore had shown Marvin Farrar. Tom saw that it named & big sum of money. He thought it might be an important and valuable paper. He I proceeded to find out. There may have been vague visions of a reward in that active mind of his. The note was made out to Luke Darrell and the letter was signed Luke Darrell. Tom went into a bank and asked permission to look over the directory. It contained the former ad- dress of Luke Darrell, but when Tom reached the place he found an empty office, and was informed that Luke Darrell had “skipped.” Then he set at work to locate the signer of the note—Marvin Farrar— and ran down his business address. ! He was not at the office, and Tom was | directed to his home. Tom did not find him there either, but the land. lady, after questioning him sufficiently to believe that his mission might be an urgent one, directed him to the was there, “I am looking for a Mr. Marvin Far- rar,” reported young Tom, as he came up the steps to face the lovers, seated in a hammock. “Hello!” ejaculated Marvin. “Why, I seem to have secn you before.” “Why, so you did!" cried Tom, brightening up as it by magic. “Isn't it queer, sir?’ I've been looking for you a long time."” “What for?” “These"—and Tom handed over let- ter and note. “Are they yours, sir— are they of any importance?”’ That question was not answered for Tom, except in the finding for him the next day of a excellent situation. The letter referred to “pushing every claim, collected before or not,” and the note once paid, placed Marvin in & position to'readily unmask the tricksters and avoid their further ex- tortion. 8o Marvin and Winnie did not have to walt two years, and Tom Chubb was a guest of honor at their wed- ding.

Most folk think of the mind vague ly as something which is going on in the top of our heads—in the brain. But in reality this is only & very small part of it, the Delineator observes. A very wonderful part of our minds is in our hands and fingers. There is the highest development of the seuse of touch—the primitive and most fun- damental sense of all. And still anoth- er part s literally in our feet. We owe a great deal of our intelli- gence to the fact that we have hands. This is a very old story. But we owe almost as much to the fact that we have feet so shaped that we stand * erect. It s mostly this that distinguishes ius from the higher monkeys—tha chimpanzee and ourang. Most of what we do with our hands and with our feet is done more or less unconsciously, as when we write a let- ter or play the piano or do a waltz. These operations are mostly directed by the parts of our minds which liter- ally lie in the hands and the feet--in the muscles and the little knots of nerves that lle between the finger tips and the toe tips and the central trunk in the spine. For most of these opera- tions the brain itself is merely a kind of an onlooker. Slaughtered the Flock. A curious incident occurred at the London (Eng.) opera house the other evening. In the Venetian lake scene in “Come Over Here,” a number of ladles entered the lake and mysteri- ously disappear. One of the bathers let fall a valuable diamond ring, which was immediately swallowed by | one of the ducks. It was impossible to identify the duck, and so the whoie Comes Around to Us.

Sometimes, when the blouse is of chiffon, the camisole is of lace, but flash colored chiffon or net is used under the majority of Linen With Striped Collar, these blouses, 8o that the filmy outer fabric appears to be clinging to the bare flesh of shoulders and arms. Very loose lines are insisted upon by Fashion in all blouses now. Not only does the blouse hang in full, graceful folds from long shoulders, but it also hangs over the girdle at the walstline. Net is pintucked, and chiffon is laid in half-inch or quarter inch tucks to emphasize this effect of fullness, and some of the most fetching blouses are of white chiffon tucked all the way across in evenly spaced, quarterinch tucks. Some times a band of pastel colored ribbon passés under the tucked chiffon and over the net or lace camisole beneath, the fringed ends of the ribbon emerg- ing at the front of the blouse through buttonholed slashes in the chifton, where the ribbon {s tied in & small, soft bow.
