Dorothy and the
Fisherman
By MALCOLM BROWN
Copyright, 1921,
Woalern Nowspnpor Union.
He was rending the front page of a
newspaper, and lt was beaded "No
News of Dorothy Lamont."
It gave one a creepy feeling to
know that one was being searched for
all over the United States, that the
sudden disappearance of the million
aire's daughter had aroused the inter
est and apprehensions of 00,000,000
of people, while tho girl In ques
tion was resting quietly nt a little, un
fashionable seaside resort in Massa
chusetts. But Dorothy had no com
punctions whatever.
"I won't marry Harold Curtis," she
said, twisting herself upon her side
and looking out nt the leaping waves.
'.I don't care If father will go bank
rupt unless the Lamont and Curtis
interests are 'affiliated,' as he calls lt.
It isn't right!"
An American girl has certnlnly the
inborn right to choose her husband.
And, to ito truthful, Dorothy's parents
were not nltoRetlier insistent upon the
marriage. But it would mean bank
ruptcy otherwise, for Curtis, mindful
of old scores to be paid off, hud been
pushing Lamont hard, and he had
.^filil? at his mercy.
"If only they'd give me a chance to
fall in love with Harold," sobbed Dor
othy. But she had only seen him once,
and she didn't even remember what he
looked Uko, except that he was not
quite a monster.
"No, he isn't a monster," Dorothy
tearfully admitted. As n matter of
fact, Harold Curtis had fallen desper
ately in love with Dorothy at first
sight.
She had dreamed, as all girls dream,
cf a possible lover.
The tide was lapping against the
mouth of tho cave.
She looked out In horror. Dorothy
could not swim, and the freshening
wind was sending huge rollers break
ing Into the mouth of the cave, which
would, she knew, be entirely filled at
high tide. Dorothy screamed again and
again. Suddenly a black speck ap
peared round tho distant rocks. It
was a boat i Dorothy shouted, and
she saw the speck grow larger and
turn inward. There was a man In lt,
and he was pulling hard toward her.
Presently, with a few quick strokes,
he sent the boat gilding against the
cave.
"Jump in I" he said.
Dorothy stepped in and sank down
exhausted In the bottom of the boat
"That was a narrow escape you had,
miss," he said, In the quaint Intona
tion of the New England countryman,
"'.est not go on the rocks again un?
t? vou know this coast. You're stay
ing at Mrs. Jones, ain't you?"
"Yes," answered Dorothy.
'.Then I'll Jest take you there," said
the young fisherman.
Dorothy heard bl? story and duly
listened to Mrs. Jones' motherly
Scolding. Her spirit was chastened,
and she felt thoroughly disgusted with
herself.
Then came a blow which fairly
crushed Dorothy's spirits. It was the
report of on interview with her father,
and contained these words :
"I do not believe my daughter has
come to any harm, and I am sure
she has gono away of her free will.
I shall, thorefore, make no further ef
fort to nnd her. When she ls ready to
come home sho may do so, and she
will find me still her father., But until
then I shall cease to Interest myself
in her whereabouts."
Dorothy read that on tho beach, and
She burst Into bitter tears. Tho
enormity of her behavior suddenly be
came clear to her. She had run away,
not to ovoid a marriage which was be
ing forced upon her, but to become a
popular heroine. She must write to
her father and go home. But as for

Harold-never, never !
A step at her side made her look up.
The young flsherman was standing by
her.
"In trouble, miss?" he asked, seeing
her streaming eyes.
"I don't know what to do," sobbed
Dorothy. "Oh, I wish you were a
woman, so that I could tell you ahout
it. I um In such trouble. I-I-"
To her amazement the fisherman
had calmly sat down at ber side and
taken her hand In his. Then, to her
further amazement, she fell his arms
about her.
"Dorothy, don't you know me?" he
asked. "Don't you remember that
evening nt my father's house?"
"Harold I" she exclaimed, staring at
him In consternation. "Oh, what a
fool I was I" Then she tore herself
away and her anger began to rise
swiftly. "But you-how dared yo?
take a mean advantage of me?" she de
manded hotly.
"Forgive me, Dorothy," he pleaded
humbly. "I learned that you were here
and telegraphed to your" ""father
yesterday. I've loved you all the time,
Dorothy, and wanted you mighty bad;
and now I've got you I'm going to
keel? you, because I saved your life,
and lt's going to be mine."
And Dorothy thought this reason
able.
Daylight Saving.
According to a report made to the
London county council by an educa
tional authority, the statement ls
made that the physical condition of
the school children ls grerifly Im
proved by the daylight snvlng program
which has been followed In that coun
try for many years. "It- ls a simple
Question," he says, "of combining tho
twin advantages of an extra hour of
sunlight and fresh air with rest and
sleep."

"I hurt my back many years ago

with kidney complaint," says Mr.
Grahl. "When I have one of these at

kidneys and my kidneys do not act

whenever an attack came on and
they have never failed to quickly re

Dec. 17, 1914.)
On April 9, 1918, Mr. Grahl said.
"I am glad of another opportunity

Is It Fair?
(Anderson Daily Mall.)
The Blue Ridge Railroad pays a
conslderablo amount of taxes to tho
city of Anderson, and in addition a
license to do business. The railroad
also pays considerable laxes to the
county for tho building and upkeep
of tho road?. Recently a bus lino
has been est. bllshed botwoou Seneca
and Anderson in competition to thc
railroad, and has free use of tho
highways which the railroad has
halpod to build. We would Uko to
know, as a matter u? curiosity, how
much Uconso the bus lino ls paying
to do business in Anderson. Wo hold
no brief for tho railroad, and have
nothing against tho bus line, but wo
de believe in fair play for all hands.
Vos, Fair Enough.
(Anderson Tribune)
A bus line is in operation between
Anderson and Seneca, lt is operat
ing in competition to tho Blue Ridge
railroad, jnst as tho jitneys in An
derson compete with the street rail
way system. The traveling public
appreciates tue bus lino becauso it
provides transportation to Seneca in
tho early morning in timo for pas
sengers lo make connection with the
Southern No. 29 for Birmingham
and other points. The Blue Ridge
mentioned rather prominently as the
bus's competitor-discontinued tho
early morning train months ago, and
since that time there has been a de
mand for the service the bus line
ls giving. As service is tho basis of
success, the buB line is entitled lo
the patronage it gets, and should
grow.
There is no argument against a
bus line. Bus lines are in operation
the country over, and little has been
snid about the fairness in their haul
ing a few passengers who might have
bought railroad tickets, especially if
the passengers would suffer serious
delay before a train ran. Isolated
Anderson needs moro bus lines-one
between the Electric City and Starr,
Iva, Lowndesvllle and Calhoun, or
between this city and Bolton, Honen
Path aad elsewhere. These lines
should bo encouraged. Bus lines will
never hurt Anderson.
Neither will bus lines seriously af
fect the ?Blue Ridge. Instead, It will
work to the ultimate good of the
road, tfOr early morning passengers
who go by bus to Seneca there catch
a Southern train on the road that ls
the daddy of the Blue Ridge. And
were it not for the bus these same
passengers would take tho C. and W.
C. to Calhoun (Falls, as they have of
ten done, and catch the Seaboard, a
real competitor of the Southern and
l.luo Ridge.
Tho Anderson-Seneca bus lino will
work to the good of all parties con
cerned. To date the Blue Ridge has
not become" alarmed over the opera
tion of the lone 20-passenger bus.
Incidentally, the bus is carrying the
Tribune to several hundred subscrib
ers at Autun, Sandy Springs, Pendle
ton, Clemson College and Seneca the
same day it is published, and giving
rural subscribers at these places the
morning news a few hours after it
ls published.
Fair enough!
