Paul Smith was a poor old mans He had n back room at the top of a noisy lodging house, where he slept and mouse bed his meals of bread and cheese (or bologna sausage when he could afford it,) and from whence he Crept, harmless and unnoticed ns down to the corner of the dingy strect, - to the little music shop of Carl Bermann, a music .seller some where in Soho.. There he tinkered all day on brok en violins :and other instrumeos, never absenting himself fora ,moment save on Saturday afternoons, when he went ro teach the piano to three or four stupid girls. Sundays, he curled up in his den and amused himself—no/may knew how-:--until Monday. morning. There are few certainties; he never went to church, but he picked rag ged children from the pavement when they fell near himanil gave them half pennies when he had any; shared his dinner with a mangy, dirty ear, who ILeted r.s a sort. of escape valve for the ill Wolper or half the men and women in the street;' And he rouged . Pat Ryan from his midnight snoose, in the gutter, and 'literally carried.: him home to Nora and the children. As for honesty; 'as a neighbor re. marked. "If he found five shillings in the street, he'd wear out ten Ail- - lings worth Of, strength ~ and shoe leather to find, the owner." ;' One dark, cold night, Paul was re thrning from his work with a loaf or bread under one arm and a violin un der the other, and nearly fell over a small 'object crouched oft the step Bless me! what's this?" eriel Paul, striving to regain . his . equili brium. "Only me, sir and the small ject stood up and became a very pale thin, ragged, child. : "Are you hurt little girl ?" "No, sir." "What are you doing here in the cold ?" " Nothing." - "Why don't you go borne ?" " I ain't got any." " Dear mel Where's your mother ?" "In heaven?" At - this Paul was dumbfounded. and seeing, that great tears were stealing down the child's wan thee, he Ahrust the violin-under the arm which . had held the, bread, and put ting the other around \ the tiny'figure he laid, "Oh, I've got areal. jolly place 1 Come up, and see."

But old Paul: looked un concerned, evaded the questions of the curious, and learned to - .love nothing in this world better than the little 'talc : Camilla,. There were many, many days when 'rheumatism drew Paul by the fire in the old back attic, and drew the very last penny out of the- dilapidated purse; but brave little Camilla never forgetting how near death she had been on 'that bitter night of their meeting, always found a way to ward oif 'hunger, and - courage to keep Ulm both :Inie until help ,came.

But ,this also, is _not perfect socie tly. It is teto nar row, too .eXCIUSiVe. It shows the flower of devotion. trust, seltsurren r. that there is in the human heart; and, it is also a prophecy of something larger that is, to come.
