Tiki good little buy read all tbo
Sunday achool books; they were his
;renlel delight. This wustlie whcle
secret ol It. Ho believed in I lie good
little boy they put in tho Sutiday
school books ; he had every ronKdoaeo
in tlieni. Ha longod to como n cross
one of them alive, onco ; but he never
did. They all died boforo his time,
mir bo. When he road about a par
ticular good one. bo turned over quick
ly to see what became ol bun, ueciute
be wanted to travel thousand-of mile
and goao on him ; bat. It wasn't any
ue; that good littlo boy always died
in tho last chapter, and there was a
picture of a funoral, with nil bis rela
tions and the (Sunday school children
staodinar around the crare lo panta
loons thut wore too blurt, and bonneis
that were too largo, and everybody
crying into handkerchiefs that bad al
inuoli ad K yard nnd half of stuff in
thorn, lto always beaded ofT iu thin
war. Ho never could soe one of
thoiu little boys, on accouut of bis
dying iu the laat chapter.
Jacob bad a noble ambition to be
nut in a Sunday school book, lie
wanted to be put in, with pictures
representing bis gloriously dacliuiug
to lie to bis rootbur and ttho woeping
fir joy about it; and pictures repre
sontins bint standing: on the doorstep
giving a penny to a poor begar woman
with six children, and tolling her to
pond it freely, but not to be extravi-
gnat, beenuie eitraviganae ie a ein ;
and pictures of him magnanimously
relufinct to tell on tho bad boy who al
wave lav in wait for him around the
eorner. as be oame fretn school, and
welted him over tbo head witb a latb,
and then ebased him borne saying,
"Hit Hil" as be proceeded. Tbt
was the ambition of youog Jaoob liliv-
ens. lie wisued 10 be put in a sua
day sohool book. It made bim feel
fittle ancomforlabld sometimoswheo
bseflecled that the good little boys
ahesys died, lie loved to live, you
kaow, and this was tbo most unpleas
ant feature about being a Sunday school
book boy. He knew it was unhealthy
to be irood. . Ha knew that it was
mora fatal than consumption to bs so
supernaturally good as the boys in
tho books were ; ns Knew inai noun ui
Ibem bad ever been able to stand it
long, and it pained him to think Ibat
if tbev nut him in book be wouldn't
ever see it. or even if tbey did ret the
book oat before be dloO.'.lt wouiuo't

Alwav bb Civil "My young
friend," said a gentleman on horseback,
one day, to a lad wbo was standing near
11 well, " will you do tne a fuver to
draw a pall of water for my horse, as
I find it rather difficult to get off.'
Instead of giving a gruff reply, as
many boys would do, tho boy drew
the water and gave it to tbe horse.
Ill manner was so pleasant and cneer-
ful, tbat tbe stranger doliybtod with
bi spirit, asked bun hie Dome and
residanoo, and after thaoklog bim,
rode on.
The good-natured Ml tlrooght no
more about the act of civilly, til! some
months Inter, he rectved a letter from
the irenllemac offering bim a dork-
ship in bis store. Tbo offer was ac
cepted. 1 he lad prospered, and noat
ly became chief iiugtutrate of a large
city.
thus yocr sue that a little aot of
civility to a stranger was the first
round 10 the ladder by which th
boy clltned to honor and wealth. Now
I do not say that eivllty will always
lead to sach honor. Vat I say that it
always raises its possessor la tbe opto
loo of others sad ia his own elf-re
spect. Bo elvil, therefore, my boy
and girls. Civllty is an ornament alt
should possess. w-" ,
