HYRUM, UTAH J- 1 - A Joint Partnership in a Pup n n By MARTHA WILLIAMS ivj. 1921, by McClure An Newspaper Syndicate.) adventurous small boy snatched the puppy from the dog seller, ran with it, was chased, and, to escape being caught redhanded, dropped the poor mutt into a dark area way. Theie It lay stunned for some time, but at last struggled to its unsteady legs, whimpering faintly, and tried vainly to climb the steps to the street. Morton found it us he came out of the Italian restaurant, where he had dined. lie Lad made rather a pretense of dining, being nearly as miserable as the puppy looked. Misery loves company, lienee, je'rhTp.s, his action. Into the light ho strode, the dog cuddled in his palm, sat down at the nearest vacant table und demanded instantly milk and hot soup, lie had decided they. would be to the shivery, small comforting beast, so small it did not know how to eat when food was set before it. Morton, bending in the effort to help, was amazed to see a womans hand stretched beside his own, while a clear voice said: Let me have him, also a spoon. We must manage a supper some way. Shortly he was watching a rather Inscrutable young person, w hom he had not noticed across the table when he sat down to it, deftly feeding his protege, huddled la her lap. There; that will do until next time," she said at last, as the shrunken sides rounded almost dangerously. Keep him warm ; lie will sleep. Such a beauty is worth a whole lot of trouble. He isnt mine found him outside couldnt leave him to freeze this hitter night, Morton hazarded. The girl smiled at hinw Im glad you couldnt. A lost puppy is piteous. I know Im lost myself until 10 oclock." Why the time limit? Morton asked, almost forgetting his own troubles in this new appeal to sympathy. Again she smiled, saying: Polly set it; she will be home then. I came a day ahead of my plans and was discouraged from waiting on the stairs outside her door. Do you think, looking suddenly straight at Morton, I took the least bit like a burglars pal or a confidence queen? A movie queen would be nearer the Morton laughed, suddenly truth, sensing the atmosphere of unostentatious breeding his questioner exhaled. If you are waiting here may I keep you company? With Trove for chap-- , eron that must be his name. Treasure Trove, the girl repeated, If I thought youd part softly. with him pausing in 'embarrassment which Morton ended by saying: You cant have him for keeps, but Ill lend him to you gladly if you think Polly would permit until I can find proper quarters for him. Polly loves the under dogs and the lost ones, the girl smiled back at him. As to staying that Is as you please. I shall be glad of company, but would hate to detain you. Im not afraid in the daylight, much less in the dark. Its hardly more than a step, but I ordered my cab on the way in." You are a Wonder with the capiAs such tal letter, Morton returned. your name, please that I may approach the presence properly. Here I am, extending his owp card. Nobody in particular, but not, I hope, wholly a bad sort. Im Ruth Desha you never heard of me but I knew you In spite of your glum look. Betty Bruton gave me one of your pictures when she she decided to go abroad, the girl answered. Morton flung up his head, I got her wedding smiling bitterly. cards the night my last play was . damned, he said. "Still, that doesnt excuse looking like a deaths head. Do you "mind much?

I want a playfellow , us.' up-o- n I- 1 it is what I have come here for. Yot see, down in the grass country Ivt had years of reading and dreaming of life out in the world. Ive had nobody to take me there and couldnt leave granny if I had had. Now she has gone I dont whnt to do anything that would have hurt her but she left me a few thousands outside my own property. I want to spend them waste them, if you like in making my dreams' come true. And I cant unless you help me. How? Morton asked suddenly, deciding that blushes made her beautiful. . v By playing with me just as man to man Dutch treat, you know and all that showing me whatever is worth seeing. Not risque things 1 hate filth but places and people w here I cant go alone and where dear old Polly wont care to take me. You wont get mushy like the men at home because of Betty, you know we can be just pals, playing in the sunshine. Dont you think it would help you? Maybe a lot? I am sure of it, Morton said almost gayly. , The plan is heavenly except for the Dutch treat regulation. Wont you relax that? Im not quite a pauper, if the play did get itself . damned. -- I know what we can do! Ruth cried gleefully. Dutch treating may go hang but- youll take me places, and then Ill take you to places and we wont ever speak or think of anything so vulgar as money except, when we are paying the checks. Handsomely compromised, Morton laughed, his first real laugh since Betty had sent back his ring. He made a strong mental reservation as to finances in future. Then trifles being adjusted he proceeded to serious matters, such as measuring Luck for a collar adjustable, of course and deciding upon the motto to be engraved on it. Followed three blissful months. The more he saw of Ruth the more wonderful she became. She had the finest intuitions, the kindest heart In the world. They made her deaf to Pollys entreaties as to absolute ownership of Luck. h A diamond will be nearly as much trouble and a heap more stylish, she said in mitigation. Luck is going home with me next month; he has outgrown this town, just as I have, and needs Gods outdoors to find himself in. IIow about me? I am under the illusion of owning him, Morton said, over her shoulder. She looked at him In mild surprise. JHDf course you own him thats partly why I am taking him so you will have no excuse for not coming along. Children Cry For f V-,- - soSyV. ;e; 1 j XCOHOiEEBOgJ a findihpSioma&safldBowetsa.

Then she preached him a long sermon concluding with: Its all a matter of resisting temptation. Always, always turn a deaf ear to temptation, son.
