As Dr. B— was passing the corner of the Park, he observed a lad with a valise is his baud just turning into the street. He paused a moment, as if uncertain which course to take. A momenta glance showed to the clergyman that the lad was from the coun try. Such ruddy cheeks and vigorous mus cles-did net grow in the shade of a city homec It flashed through the good man's mind that this boy was leaving his early home as he bad'done some forty years ago; and in im agination he recalled that parting scene with a feeling of gentle sauces that made him at elm feel an interest in the boy before him. It is wonderful how rapidly thought can move. Bow much we can think of almost in an instant. 'Please, sir, will you direct me to Le• Roy Street ?' he asked respectfully. The clergyman gave the desired direction, and then added : 'You have come from a home in the Gone. try to find a situation in the oily, have you, my boy 7' There was something so kindly in the tone that it went at once to the boy's heart. A moment before he had felt so utterly alone Now he felt that this voice was one of real sympathy, and its effect was electrical. _ __flt_lDatber died a menth_ago,"_he said,—atu my-mother has got ft place _for me in my cousin's store.' -IVell, my boy, I trust you have had a good mother; I can usually tell by a boy's looks what kind of a mother be has.

'l'll walk the length of this city through to find that man's church and Sunday School,' sail Robbie to himself, as he walked rapidly on, his heart cheered • and strengthened by that little act of sympathy. When the nest Sunday came, however, it found him worn down with his unaccustomed tasks A young man in the store, with whom he had formed t< pleasant acquaintance, in vited him to take a stroll about the city. show yen some of the eights, and treat you to a dinner of oysters down in a saloon I know of where they keep open on Sundays. The shutters are bowed, of course, out of re. spect to the day, you knew; but there is al ways plenty to eat and drink inside en all days and hours They have all kinds of liquors, too, and make splendid punch.' Bobbie felt lonely enough that day. His thoughts rail back to his old home, and more than once the tears started ,in his eyes.— The young man seemed so pleasant and friendly, be was just on the eve of yielding to his temptation just this once.' But then the thought of .the gOod minister's words a• bout this day being the turning point in his life came back to his mind just in time.

It is only those who climb the ladder that know the strength of every round., A rapid ascent is often followed by a similar descent ;, and as knowledge can only be ob tained in small quantities at a time, it is bet• ter to be content with things as they are, than fret at circumstances. We would call the attention of every young man to one significant fact, and that is, ninety.nine in every hundred of our succeasful men began at the very bottom of the ladder. No matter where you look in science, politics, literature, the great men of this nation have gained their present position by their own personal industry.
