It was now time for tbe office to close, but Robert Harvey, the office boy, bliil lingered, though the book keeper bad told him he could "o home. "You dou't seem to be in a hurry this afternoon," said the bookkeeper. ' Do voo think I could see Air. Wilton before I go ?" . "What is your errand ?'' asked the bookkeeper, curiously. "I thought as I had been here a year to-day, he might be willing to raise my salarv." "I advii-e you not to ask," said the bookkeeper, shrugging his Ehouldere "Business is only so fo, and you are fortunate not to be cut down" But Robert had a special reason for preferring his requtst. . His lit tle sister was sick and his mother, who derived some income from raak lng vests from a citv tailor, was un able to do as much as usual, and the result was that they were Lard pressed for money to buy absolute necessaries, lcen again, in a week tbe monthly rent came due. It was but six dollars, but that seemed u large sum to Robert ai:d his moth er. Mr. Wilton suit in his couctir.c room writing") hen Robert entered. " hat can I do for you. Robert" he asked. "Mr. Wilton, it is a year to-dav since I entered vour service." The merchant began to frown. Al- ceeded twentv thousand oouars, uui still thev were two thousand aouars behind the profits of the previous year. This " annoyed him, for he had confidently expected to do bet ter. - -, , -What then ?'' Le 3sked curtly. "I thought you might be willing to pay me a little more salary." -How much do I pay you now ? "Three dollars and a half a week A very fair salary for these times, Robert The fact i?, business has fallen ofT, and I have not done as well this vear by a couple of thous- I and dollars as I did last year. "Then vou can t raise me 7 asuea Robert, in a tone of disappointment -rertninlv not Most rcen are .nttino liicn wases. I won't do fKnt lint I can't advance you. In another year if thing are favorable, I will pay you somethinf more. Ar.nther vear! It was a long time tr. wait when money was needed so much. Robert felt thnt there was -if-h mnrP til be said, and he turned away slowlv, his face clouded by sadness. Mr. Wilton watched him as he went out, and felt a little twinge of regret. "It wouldn't have cost me much to pay him a dollar a week more onlv fifty two dollars," he thought. "Still I must consider the principal of the thing. Why should be re ceivr more when I am getting K-ss ? ' Mr. Wiiton might have consider ed that to him a small diminution of his large income meant no io.-s oi comfort, or even luxury, while with Robert it is very different He was not a hard hearted man. but he was disposed to take a selfish view of whatever affected his own interests. The sight of poverty and privation I ma,l.. liim nncomfortable. and he! stores or offices at four o'clock ia the afternoon, to allow tleir clerks a lit tle space for recreation. It was in tbe winter season, and tbe boys congregated ia large cum bers at a pond not tar irom Robert's home, where they had fine sport ia skating. It occurred to Robert that he might pick up a little money by putting on skates for young ladies, or inexperienced skaters. By four o'clock he bad eard ten cents in that way, and there seemed to be little chance of doing anything more in that way. - - "Why are yoa not skating, Rob ert T said Charley Uavis, as he was taking off his skates. "Because I have no skates." l ou may use mise while 1 am gone home to supper." Thank you, Charley, I shall en joy it" "I think my skates will fit you. "Yes, our feet are about of a size. Most of the bovs enjoy their skat ing so much that they deferred go ing home to supper, so that Robert had plenty of company when on Charlie's skaf.es he sped swiftly over the ice. We shan't have skating much longer, Kob, said ired Lathrop. "It is beginning to melt already." 1 on are nzht 1 think this will be the last chance for the present unless the weather gets colder. The ice is quite thin over on the east side of the pond, but still the bovs go there. lo you see that lit tle fellow with the seals-kin cap ? les: what of him 7" It is tbe son of v our employer, Clarence Wilton, lie is an only child I believe. His parents idolize him, l am ttud. "He stems a bright little fellow. I never saw any of Mr. Wilton's tarn ily before." Clarence Wilton was one of the imprudent boys who ventured out on the thin ice. He was rash and thoughtless, and only laughed when told he was running a risk. "I only weighed eighty pounds he sail, "I guess the ice will be jr me." All at once Robert beard a loud crv. "The ice is cracking I" The crowd of excited boys and g;rlu were looking on when the omi nous sound was neard. All escaped in safety except one, who was fur ther away from the strong ice than rtrwpn tniiw. --. . . It was auite true. The treacher ous ice had given away, and tbe lit tle bov, after an mehectuai struggle, had broken through. The boys look ed on as if paralyzed, and appeared not to know what to do. All except i . , i l :. k i v, : one. liotten nau uis nusawutuim and though ne knew his own danger he started swiftly for the dangerous He and Clarence question it any can call forth as many petty, annoy- are intimate ; inc. disagreeable traits of character friends, and the merchant encourag-1 as that of oar ebony-hued domes es the intimacy.

He reached the dangerous chasm, and he too was ingufed, but he had grasped the little bo and held him up so as to prevent iis drowning. "Bring a rail, qnidt !" he shouted. There was a rail ai tbe ice not far awav as be knew. Half a dozen boys siezed it and pt?hed it toward the imperiled boys. Not without a powerful i fforf Rolert managed to pull himself and Caience out of the icy waters. Both were shivering from their terriblebath. Poor little Clarence was cry if: with the cold. Thev got off the ice as quickly as they cou'd. Neaithe poud was a hack. "Get in. Clarer.e, said Robert "I will take you hore." "Where to V. PKeu tn anver. "Wheie do yotiive, Clarence?" The little bWiamed the street and number. "Drive i n H as you can, you will le well pait" said Robert "There was a reat alarm at the house ot Mr. W ten when the two boys arrived, .r.

I was contrast ing mentally his light hearted, hap py nature with that of a certain poor departed Jim, who. after he grew up, never unbent in play for a moment; when, looking again, I saw a tiny j mouse steal away a lew leet Irom I do not speak unadvisedly when I affinn that it is a part ot the freed man s religion to dislike tbe white man and to injure and secretly ap propriate his property. Still, under lying their general demeanor there is a species of urbanity, deference, and humility which is an outcrop of their policy, and not of their true, j proselyte, and a time was fixed when she might bring the young man and the ceremony of baptism be solemn ized.

They cling as tenaciously to a fabricated statement of their own fertile imagination as if it were gos pel truth, and as unblushingly as if their characters for veracity were un impeachable.

But a dog nearly always keeps a store of favorite old dry bones by him, one of which he loves to bring to the fireside, to pass away half an hour before going to bed gnawing at it: while litfht-bearted degs will often end a eell of chewing at their bone with a game of pitch-and-toss with it.

He is a Pro testant and she is a Catholic, and the parents of Miss Hood objected to a onion. The barrier that this difference built between them, how ever, was not strong enough to keep them apart, for Flynn continued to visit Miss Hood at stated evenings of the week, and the latter was al ways at home.
