"Why don't you raise chickens foi
the market?" suggested Hiram Bassett,
the village storekeeper, to Ben Singer.
Ben was fourteen years old. His moth
er had died a short time before. Ilia
father was a carpenter by trade, but
had been crippled by rheumatism so
that he could not work. Ben, who al
ways looked on Mr. Bassett as a friend 1
of undoubted fidelity and great re
sources, had been telling the store-!
keeper how muoh he wished he could
get some steady ; work. Mr. Singer's i
little stock of money was exhausted;
he had already sold some of his tools
to get the food he and his son needed.
Ben realized that the day was rapidly
coming when there would be no way
of getting more, unless he managed to
vlo something of greater profit than
the odd iobs he picked up now ana
then from the surrounding farmers.
I'll do It," said Ben, iu response to
Mr. Bassett's suggestion, ana, turning
about, trudged home, and all the way
was planning how he might begin. !
A week later the "chicken larm, as
Ben called it, was a fact; at least he
had made a start. In his spare time he
lad constructed some coops from old
barrels and a box or two. The pay for
wo days' work he invested in three
Jozen eggs, and with the money or
cained by sorting some Tegetaoies ior
the storekeeper bought two hens which
were just about to "set." lie ana his
1'ather already had five pullets, and
within a couple1 of weeks more there
were five "clutches" ol eggs unaer as
many of his hens.
He fed his chickens from the screen
ings he got at a small price lrom sev
eral of the farmers. Ihe hens man
aged, too, to pick up a good deal of
food among the bushes ana in me liny
garden back of the house. Ben worked
hard at the small Jobs tie was given
round about, and waited with contt-
for the time when ho should be
able to make something from his ven-1 chickens and Mr.
tears trickle down his father's face.
He jumped up and threw his arms
around his father's neck. He was
frightened and ho did not understand
just what was the matter.
Presently Mr. Singer unclasped the
boy's hands and looked him in the face.
"Ben," he said, "I'm afraid we are in
for hard times yet."
"What do you mean, Dad?" asked
Ben.
"The house is only rented," said Mr.
Singer slowly; "they can't take that,
but they can take all our furniture
and everything else."
"Why, they belong to us," exclaimed
Ben.
"So they do, Ben, but the law gives
another man the right tosellthein and
take the money they bring if we owe j
him money and can't pay it."
"And we owe somebody money? I
thought Dr. James was paid?"
"So he was. But there is some one
else to whom I owe money a man I
borrowed from when vour mother waa
x uwo uim one uuumcu uollars.
He has what they call my note. I
haven't been able to pay him, and now
he says he must have it. He is entitled
to it right off, and will gut as much of
it as possible by selling what we have.
He was here to see me about it the
other day, and I tried to get him to
wait. But he says he's tired of wait
ing and the sheriff'll come and sell us
out."
Ben had a fairly good idea now of
the situation. He tried to comfort his
father, but it was of little avail. Mr.
Singer felt his helplessness and the
disgrace keenly, and did not know
j what would become of them. Ben
worried over what he had heard all
night long, but he could find no way
out of thoir difficulty.
The next day u'c took ten of his
biggest chickens to the village store.
He had already arranged with Mr.
; Bassett to have them sent to a com
i mission merchant at Waynesboro and
j sold. After he had delivered the
Bassett had prom-

'uiciiier. But the. otlicer knew he could
not accept the offer at once.
"Three dollars I am bid!" he an
swered. "Who bids four?"
No one spoke.
"Three dollars and a-halt, then?" he
said.
Every one was silent, and the sug
gestion of three dollars and a-quarter,
likewise, went unanswered. Three
dollars was the one bid offered, and,
after one expostulation, the sheriff
.Hen hanUed the money to the sheriff,
who congratulated him on his pur
chase with an earnestness he had sel
dom felt on occasions of this kind, and
there was not one of the farmers who
did not come forward and speak a
kindly word of praise and encourage-
' ment to the boy.
I But Ben was listening to little of all
of this; he slipped away to his father,
who could only strain the boy to him
while the tears streamed down his
face.
The chicken farm was saved, and the
chicken farm proved a success. A year
later, when Mr. Singer was once more
working steadily, and his rheumatism
wos gone, his creditor was paid in full
the amount borrowed from him, and
the proceeds from Ben's chicken farm
did not a little to make up the sum re
quired. Chicago Inter Ocean.

that, if he knew just how it was done,
he might be able to hit on a way out
of it "Mr. liassett," he eaid, "how
does a sheriff sell you out?"
Perhaps the storekeeper had an idea
of the trouble. But if he did, he gave
uo sign of it, and tried to explain to
Hen how such a sale was conducted.
"And the people at the sale," ho con
cluded, "offer to buy what is offered,
and the sheriff sells to the one who
makes the highest bid."
lien asked several questions before
he left 1 hen he walkod slowly home,
and all ihe while, in hia mind, he was
turning over a dimly defined project
which had Ix'en suggested to him by
what he had heard.
A week later lien received the money

ho would have shown his satisfaction
more if it hnd not Ken ft r the impend

miserable that ho could not leave hia

cents, and took it home to him,
but Mr. Singer wan feeling ao bad that
he ate of it only sparingly. j
On a Monday in the curly part of the
next month the ahorilT, In purauniiee
of formal notice, arrived at the houae
to make a salo to antisfy Vr. Sinccr'a

about the cottage, and there was not

Then, when he thought lie had the

bid.
"Hiity dollar for thl cholc lot of

cried.
There wa no response. He repeated
Ihe announcement, then dnpH the

The sheriff made some further re

Little Tlilnics That Made a Variety Come,
dlan'a Auditor Laugh.
As the favorite comedian appeared
before the audience of a local variety
theater with the limp so characteristic
of him, there was a ripple of applause
The only wny that he could properly
introduce himself was by singing
soug, and ho at once bravely complied
with the time-honored custom, says the
Philadelphia Call.
"I wore a new pair of shoes the other
day," he announced, after the piano
p'nyer had stopped. "They didn't hurt
ine until 1 met two policemen. Then 1
ffot pinched."
"Something else I must tell yon," he
continued. "I was sleeping in a cellar
the other night when woke up and
saw five mlite playing1 poker. They
were deep in the game raising and
culling and raking in the chips. They
didn't notice a cat behind a barrel near
by, but I ditl.
"Suddenly the puss made a leap.
The game ended with the same old
btory everything went into the kitty.
through-a trial of much the same sort
as that which lately afflicted their pro
fessional brethren in Cork. They com
plain of the inadequate pay they re
ceive from the societies formed by the
working people to secure medical at
tendance on the cooperative principle.
In Brussels, as in many places else
where, the poor club together for medi
cal aid, and engage a practitioner, who
attends them for a fee which is almost
purely nominal. This might be en
dured, and is endured, on the consider
ation that the insufllcicnt offerings of
the poor man will be made good by the
liberality of those who are better off in
the world. But that is just where
Brussels fails. The well-to-do middle
class has contrived to secure a footing
in the "mutualist" societies.
Persons who are quite able to make
good tho deficit in the medical ex
chequer help to increase it. They come
in as poor men in such numbers that
tho unhappy practitioner hardly knows
where to look for his legitimate fee.
He has protested, but his last state is
worse than his first. Tho protest was
addressed to the offenders only, and
they had no difficulty in bersuading the
vast majority of the genuine working
class members to make common cause
with them.
The doctors are the best abused per
sons in Brussels just now, and twenty
of them have resigned their office in the
mutualist societies. As prelude to a
possible strike of doctors, this seems to
signalize one of the most awful dangers
of the time. It would be awkward,
however, if by u pure coincidence, of
course the death rate should diminish
during tho continuation of the strike.
