he hid failed to get an'aPPointtneht in a corps

The Engineer mused for a little while, then
remarked :
"Yolll2l o ' PaAone has strong friends—we are
pressed to give him the appointment,; but the
best• man for our purpose must have tfie place."
And so it was that Edward Parsons lost this
opportunity.
Was three years after
wards. Va to'..et into an Eri;iueer Corps
Edward Parsons had taken a clerkship i❑ the
office Of a railroad company, at a small salary.
Th,ere were other clerks, i❑ the office, and as the
business of. .the company was large, requiring
want' employees to' till, a variety of positions
more, or less responsible, changes and promo
tions were things of frequent occurretiee.—
Fnowing this, Edward had accepted the
tt- , , 1.1 , s•
ship as a stepping -stone. to some higher place.
— .1 , 04 1 - , ,,1
But his'peculiar "ill kick" still attended him
but
For three years he had waited,no advance
went came. Others lyere..put,,forward, some
quite rapidly—but, he remained in his first
position
"Jug, 64 luck I" 'be said, 'fretfully and des
ponitingly, to'hlinself one day; after thesetbree

The work of the office was ;particulilY; press

So he dropped ; his. ,oar ; when th'e lide.was

"What's' the matter ?; Too many hands for

Thirty' years have passed since my first ob
