You have been smiling to yourself all dinner-time.’ ‘Som^hinsr has pleased me to-day Susy. If you and Johnny would like to hear the story draw up your chairs.’ ’ a story’ said Mrs. Weston, look Ing up from her sewing, ‘may I hear too?’ ‘If you’ll be goood,’ said Mr, Weston, smiling. ‘Let me see, how old are jrou Johnny ?’ “ Twelve sir.’ ‘Well my story is about a boy just your age. It is nearly a year since I first saw him. I was very busy one afteonoon last winter, when I saw a little boy come into my stoie whose face attracted my attention at once. It was not a very hand­ some face, but it was earnest and bright; a strong, good face, if ever I saw one. The boy was poorly clad, but his ciothes were clean and w hole.’ “ M a y I see the boss ?”he asked. “ I am the boss,” I answered. “ What can I do for you ?” “ I want to ask the price of a first rate sewing machine, not a fancy one, sir, but a good worker.” “ Well, sir,” I sa id ,..‘I can give y o u a good machine for sixty dol ]arg ’ “ Sixty dollors. Well, mister.’ said he earnestly, ‘can I work it out? I have ¡every afternoon, from half past two till seven, and I can run errands or do any work about the store You see, sir, this is how it is.

But we never could spare sixty dollars, sir, so I thought I would see if I could earn ono.’ “ Bat it would take you a long tim e,’ said I. ‘If I give you ¿a dol­ lar a week it would be sixty weeks.’ “ Will you give me that ?’ he 6aid his eyes iairly dancing. ‘I can come Saturday.’ “ Can you ? Suppose we say a dollar and a half ? and if you ao well, you can have the machine a little less than the retail price.’ “ You see, Susy, I was interested already in the boy, with his honest, frank face, and resolved if he was faithful in his duties to keep him along. So we made an agreement, he to give ms all his spare time out of school,T to credit him each week with a dollar and fifty cents towards the purchase of a machine.’ ‘Every »lay he came punctual to the minute, rain or shine, and he was the most prompt and reliable errand boy 1 ever employed. Little by little the dollars rolled upon the account until one evening in the Fall I was here after dinner, ju9t before you and your mother came home from the country, when the door bell rang and in walked Harry Cummings my erraud boy. “ I found this, sir,’ he said, ‘when I was sweeping out the store,’ and he handed me,a roll of bank notes I thought was safe in my pocket. “ Please see if it is all right, sir,’ he said, ‘it was under the counter.’ ‘I counted the notes, two "hundred dollars, and then taking out one twenty dollar note, said “ I should of offered a reward for this, Harry, if you had not found I “ It’s yours,’ he said, dancing round the machine; ‘all paid for, and lessons on it, too. Ain’t it splen­ did ?’ His mother was as delighted as he expected, and that is saying a great deal. “ Oh, sir,’ she said to me, ‘u es been a good son since his poor fa­ ther died. Every morning, summer or winter, he’s up and makes the fire while I ’m dressing, and while I get breakfast he brings up all the coal for the day, so I won’t have to go into the cellar; and every step he can save me he does. But how he ever made all the money to buy a machine, out of school hours, I canuot understand.’ “ I got a dollar and a half a week, mother, for errands, and ten or twen­ ty cents extra when there was snow to clean off the sidewalk, or any oth­ er odd job, and Mr. Weston gave me twenty dollars.’ ’No, you earned that as well as the rest,’ I said, and his mother fairly broke down and cried when I told hbr about the roll of money. ‘So, Susy,now you know what pleas ed me so much to d a y To inorrcw Harry becomes my erraDd boy, and I know he will be a faithful one. There is the making of a noble man, Johnny in the boy who can work stead­ ily and faithfully for months for such an object as Harry had, never taking one cent from his hard earned mon­ ey for his own pleasure, never fail­ ing in his self imposed duties. Har­ ry is a boy, only twelve years oid, but I honor him .’ ‘But papa,’ said Susie, you are rich, ‘why didn’t you give his mo- thfc.r a machine?’ ‘Because the pleasure would not hate been so great to either Bar y o.j his mother. Think how proud «lie will be of her good son every time she touches her machine, and bow glad she will feel that be perse­ vered so well whenever he sees it. It is alittle sunbeam in the dull rou­ tine of business for both ol them, as well as for me.’ ‘Any mother would be proud of such a sou,’ said Mrs. Weston gent-t lv, ’and when he has a holiday you must let ¡him spend it here. We will be glad to see him, will we not children ?’ There was a very hearty, yes, ma’am,’ and then the brother and sister, thanking their father for the story, opened their school books and went busily to their duty for the evening, Johnny wondering a little if he could practice the self-denial, industry, and patience of Harry Cummings.
