Hut, alas 1 Just ns Imnvy clouds often rise

happened which shrouded nil her 'jluduess

mid fell heavily into the know road. Hood
ies of how much she was hurt, slid sprang
up with n frightened air, for tho crowu
piece had fallen from her baud uud rolled
away somewhere.
'hit 1 my hltlo lass I' said tho coster
monger, kindly, 'arc any bones broken V
'Oh,' said Faith, with stalling tears,
'I havn lost my money ; it fell out of my
hand 1'
'How much V' said tho man.
'A crown-piece,' said Faith, stooping
mid peering about in tho snow mid mire.
'Well now, that's a bad job,' said the
man, selling down his basket, and stoop
ing to assist tho child in l.er search. Hut
their cll'orts wero fruitless ; tho crown was
not to bu found.
'I wihh 1 wai rich now, my littlo dear,'
said tbu man, with it sorry attempt to
comfort her, 'and I'd cdvu you another
crown as sure ns my name ain't King Cole.
There now, don't lako on no ; it makes, mo
feci quilu (puecris.li. Your mother won't

'Oh, no. Hut she can't ullbrd to lose
that money ,' sobbed Faith.
A little group bad gathered round while
tho Hcurc'i bad been going on, and a. home
ly woman said, 'Do go homo, my dear.
Sou, now, your cloak and frock are dirtied.
It's 110 use standing about in the cold.'
'What's lhiy said a man's voice. 'Why,
it's littlo whalVher-uainc, 1 declare !
What's llio matter '(
Faith looked up and encountered Mr.
Morgan's antonished gaze, T'.iocoatcruion
ger answered bis qunMiinn by explaining
about the child's Iom; and then Mr. Mor
gan took her hand mid said hu would tell
her mother all about it. Like many other
drunkards, Mr. Moigan was a very kind
man when be was sober ; and this, morning
be was sober, though how long ho would
have remained so if ho had not met with
Faith is 11 question, considering that he
was just on his way to a piihlicdioiiso to
gel ii'omet b'mg "lo steady bis nerves,' as ha
phrased il ; lor I hey wei'u sadly out of or
der, iil'lur hit debauch of the previous day.
Tho band which bad held litlle Faith's was
was uuiiaiurally hot and tremulous.
'Flvu shilling !' said Mr. Morgan ns
they walked aloii0' ; 'that's a food miiii lo
lose. '
'Yes, and it was all in one piece--such a
beatitiliil crown,' said Failli, her chin
quivering with sorrow,
'Was it now I' said Mr. Morgan invol
untarily pulling his hand lo his waistcoat
pocket, for il held a similar coin, which his
wil'o had supplied him with before bu lei
home that morning.
'Yes,' answered Faith; 'and I w;s
thinking how pleased mother would be
Willi it. Ami now I can't take lu r any
money, mid inv new cloak is dirtied, and
pV'.ios wo shan't be ahlu lo have even
tot ad mid butter at Christmas ; oh y. s, wo 1

bread, because ( Very morniiij wo always '
iiray, (iive us this day our daily bread;
but mother won't lie able lo buy any
Christmas things.' j
'(iive us Ibis day' is in 'Our Father,' ;
isn't it V said Mr. Morgan, alluding to the
Lord's l'layer. 'lo you say that every j
morning V 1 used to know it by heart
when 1 was a boy, years aud years ago : 1
used to say il every morning leguiarly with
111 v mother.'
For a moment Faith forgot lu r sorrow in
the elrumt! interest w hich she fell in which I
Mr. Morgan was saying. Shu looked up J
at him through her leers and said, 'lou't
you tay it now. sir V
'S.iy'il now I' ho echoed. I haven't
nud lin n bu abruptly slopped and turned
away. "Look here, little onu,' hu slid, I
after it silence, 'would you like Income wit'.i j
1110 mid let Mrs. Morgan clean your cloak a

see it ho dirtied ; and then l'P walk over!
and explain to her all about llio mon ".' '
At this allusion (o Ipt loss the sad ex- I
prcshiou camn back into Faith's I in'.
As limy drew initr U Mr. Morgan's 1
house, she looked tip anxiously to her j
mother's window, but 110 0110 was looking ,
Mr. Morgan was silling on Urn soft In j

I the furniture was good, Iho place, looked as 1

Tho old Rcntlcman's elbows wero raised in
equal astonishment, ns ho looked at Faith's
Hushed mid earnest face.
'Decfluso it's something about that I'm
going to lull you, ndded Iho child, apolo

'Very well, then, let incnr it first,' said
Mr. Morgan, setting fiitnself buck ou tho
sofa.
Faith wtmc back to her sent, looking very
pratillcd, uud, folding her hands on her
kneo again, as she had a habit of doing,
sbu began, in n timid voice.
A long turns ngo, before I was born,
when mother bad two boys alive, sbo was
almost rich. .Sbo hud such a nicii house,
she told me, nnd money enough to buy
anything sins wanted. Father was n mas
ter then, nnd had a lot of men to work for
him : his was a builder.'
'All, well then, I knew hhn,' interrupted
Mr. Morgan. 'Jlless mo ! do you mean to
say that you are David Hurley's little girl?
Many's the day I met him, and a good
hearted, sociable mnn ho was. Hut I never
heard what came of him nt Inst ; I quite
lost sight of him. Go on Faith.
'Did you know that he ho got tipsy V'
asked Faith, with n burning face.
Mr. Morgan nodded his bead.
'l'cs,' continued the child, 'nud 'tic kept
on so dnailful that at last he was obliged
lo scud nil bis men away, and go out to
work under master himself. And so mother
got so poor, she bad to live in a house, and
go without many things that slio wanted ;
and besides having so much sorrow about
father, sbo had other I roubles, for both her
boys died. I illicit thought bow dreadful
she must have felt then, because it is so
bad to have to livo with people who get
lipsy, isn't it ;'
Air. Morgan coughed, nnd said, 'Yes.'
'Well, then, after a time father had a
dreadful accident. When ho was going up
a ladder one day hu slipped nnd fell, and
had to bo carried to the hospital. 1 think
mol her Niiid that his spine was hurt yes,
that was it ; aud hu had to lie in bed fur a
great many weeks ; and nt last ho died. I
oltcn ask inoth'T to tell mcuboulhis death,
because it's so beautiful.'
'ileaiilil'iil !' echoed Mr. Morgan, in
credulously. Willi bis uotions of death
nothing but the horrible was connected.
'Y'cs.' answered Faith, looking into the
(ire. 'You know, ho was so changed while
he was ill. Hu got lo lovo (ioil, nnd he
was so sorry lo think be had been such a
wicked man for such a long time. Mother
used to go and tit by his bed at the hospital
for hours, and kIic tells mo bow kindly lie
Used lo hold her hand uud try to comfort
her, aud beg her to forgive him for causing
her so much sorrow through drinking ; and
he said that il'tiod made him well again he
would never touch the drink any more ; and
if be bad got well I don't ihiuii he would.
do you, sir V
Mr. Morgan squeezed his eyes together,
and used his handkerchief vigorously be
fore hu repliud, 'I should think not, dear.'
'He died that very evening. Sonus one
came from the hospital to tell mother what
his last words were, aud they wero thesu :
'So foolish was I and ignorant ; I was
us a beast before thee.' '1 shall be satis
lied when I awake in Thy likeness.'
There was another silence. Mr. Morgan
clasped his bunds round bis knee, mid
gazed into tho lire with liiosu bloodshot
eyes of his. vhi ;h, however, looked better
than they had ilmu for many a long day,
because of the tears that glistened in them.
'Isn't I hue something in Isaiah about
'iqieiiiling your labor for that which batis
fi.'th not V be said, musingly. 'I used to
know iIks chapter with that in it by heart.'
Yes,' said Faith, 'I olien read it to
mother. It is one of her favorite chapters.'
'Well, now, all tho marks nro out of
your cloak,' chimed in Mrs. Morgan : 'and
; look, Faith v, lion it is quite dry they won't
show in the least.'
I Faith got up, nnd Mrs. Morgan put itou
I for her.
I 'I'll take yon over,' said Mr. Morgan,
j rising and buttoning h'u coal.
The sad look caino back into the child's
i face as she hade .Mis. Morgan good morn-

hii trembling hand hu took the crown

gently in, ho closed tho door, and went

What with going uptown with her
mother, nnd the anticipation of the morrow,
Faith was in an ecetacy of enioyment. Be
fore going to bod that uigbt, however, her
pleasure took n more solid turn. l)o you
think, mother,' sbo said, 'that Mr. Morgan
is going to try to be good now, I Imvo told
him how good father became before he.
died V I don't think bo has been tipsy
since that day.
'I think not,' replied her mother. 'And
I I do hopo that he will try to be good. Wo
Biinu sue ns lime goes on,'
The next day thev went over Uir wny to
dinner, nnd spent n very plensent ufternoon
tiiere. Jiotii raith nud her mother rather
marvelled lint no intoxicating drink was
brought on tho table ut dinner; and not
even at desert was there anything of tho
sort.
After quietly peeling an orangp for Faith,
Mr. Morgan looked up with moistened
e.vcs, ntitl said, 'I suppose you knew, Mrs.
Hurley, that iod spoku to me by your littlo
girl a few days ngo V A pause, aud then
be continued, ' i Imvo tried lo give heed
to that voice ; mid during tho last diy or
two I have had a coniliet wilh mytolf, aud
with old habits, greater then lean tell you.
Hut, pleaso liod, I am going to keep on
si niggling. I took the first step in a new
and happy direction when I transacted u
little business with Miss Faith, the other
morning, at your door. I went homo nnd
to bed, to Iw out of tho way of temptation
while I felt so weak physically, as well as
morally. And I got moral strength (or
j something belter, if you will) before I got
j physical strength ; for ns I rend over that
chapter which Faith and I had been talk
j ing about, I came to those two verses, tho
sixtkand seventh of Isaiah tho 55lh, and I
went over and over them again, until I felt
such hope as I had tiever lelt belore ; and
this hope infused such life mid strength in
to mo that I nt last ventured to think that
the former things might really pass nway,
nnd that all things might become now, mid
I think so now, Mrs. Hurley, af'ler more
relleelion. What a mercy that it is never
too Into to begin to do right ! Though my
head is grown grey, and though I bavo
spent years nnd health and wealth in u
6inful wretch course, yet I have the assur
ance that il is not too lute, I have indeed
been, 'as a beast before (ind;' still. Ho
has sent me a most gracious luessago of
mercy.'
Faith looked up and said earnestly, 'Aud
will you always '('
' Yes, indeed, I trust so,' ho replied,
with equal earnestness.
'I hopo you will,' responded Faith, hear
tily a hope, I may tell you, wbicli was
not disappointed ; for ns the. months rolled
by they found Mr. Morgan still doing
honest battle with self, nnd over victorious
through tho strength ni thcMighty Helper.
