" Minis ter?' socs are very apt to torc out badly," said I to the gentlemen wh# nat next to me in the car. We had met in the train, bound for Chicago, and had ?truck np an acquaintance. He stopped me with his hand on my arm, and with an earnest look which I ?hall never for get I paused at once ii? what I wac aaying, and it seemed for a moment al most ss if the rushing train had ?topped to listen, too, ! "Let me tell yea a etory," he said. " I know it is a common belief that min isters' sons are wild, but that is because people talk about the bad enes, while those who turn oat ;?ell sre<ffieii ss a matter of course. I gathered statistics about them once, ant found that out of 1,000 Eons of ministers there were very - few who did not grow up useful and in dustrious men." > " But what Ls vom story ?" I asked. "Well," ?aid be, "it begins withs, class supper in Boston a dozen years \ ago. A number ot . old college, friend? j had gathered in the evening for their j annual reunion. Among them w the j rieb merchant, J. xw Willaston-perhaps you have heard of him-and a poor pas- | tor o? a country church in Elmbank vil lage, out in Western Massachusetts, whose name was Blake, A g<>od many of the oin ss had died, and the dozen or so elderly men i~ho -.vere left felt more ; ?"ender than ever toward each other a? .they thought of the bright old days at Harvard, and how soon no one would bo left on earth who shared in that happy time. The dielt? ft carce and went, the lights glowed brilliantly, and at last the friend* grew quite gay. But the tender feeling I have spoken of would corae up permost, nov and tneu ; and in cue o? these momenta Wiili-ton's eye was at tracted by somethins: glistening on the coat which his friend Biake, who sat DbXt to him, had or.. He looked closer, aid saw that the black cloth of which the coat was tasde had been worn so thin rh*t it was very shiny. ".Well, Blske," stud he, suddenly, ricking Lo'.d of his friend's arm cordially . !<*vhiuh he somehow hadn't thought ot dering before), ' how has the world gone >ith you lately ?1 " Blake bcd a naturally sad and iihoughtfol face, but be looked around quickly with a warm smile. 44 * No need to ask,' be said, hvoghing. 1 You eau read tide whole story on my back. This old coat is a sortof balance sheet, which shows my financiad con dition to a TL* " Then he spoke more seriously, add ing : 'It is a pretty hsrd life, Willis ton, that of a country person. I don't complain of my ?ot, though sometimes I'm distressed for my iamily. The fact is, this coat Tve got on is hardly fit for a man in my profession to appear in, but I'm going to send my boy Sam tc? Harvard thia year, and must pinch hore and there to do it I really ought to be tba "ul, though, thot I cen get snob advantages for-him by a few little saeri Htk'es of personal eppeerr.uce and conven io nrc' Don't yon give a thought to your coefc, i4d fellow, returned Wiliiston. 'Nob*2y who knows you will ever imagine* that the heart inside of it is threadbare, however the garment may dook.' " Blake was pleased with this kindly .expression, and both m<?5 after that ei .fhitnge of confidence felt happier. But, ..Hmong the various ineideuta of the .woning, thL? one almost passed out o! the minister's mind by tho next day, when he started for Elmbank. Speedy as hi* rec.ru w???, however, s-juiethir.j.' meant for him liad got to bi* destina tion before bim. Ii was V-tter. Tak ing it np, he brok* ^r>-n the envelope, ..and found a few words from Wilb'.stoa -Oith c. check for $500, to defray the first year's college expenses of bis old . classmate's ?son. "You are a ?rtrenger to me, (dr,"said mr trawling companion at thiK point, "buti think you will appreciate the feebug rritii widen poor Mr. Blake stood in hie r,.?ra tod dingy utady in thc old form parisocai/i;, holding that letU r in his hand, end li&ing bia tearful eye in thankfulness io Ci od/' "Yea," I replied, "WtlKatOB ,^id just tie right thing, to-\ And hw wa* ii ? Did the son ?bow that he deserved tho help*" Hy a?c m?Dtaaoe looked away from me at th? rieb couatry through, which we were passing. Then he said: "fi Blake was a goed-natured, obedient ?ow enough, and trae featly pleased haye the expenses of his first coll year taken ofi' his father'*, ahon de but his sense 02 duty didn't go veiy i ? -Rev. Slr. Bloke bought a new coe. <, : Sam eutered Harvard that fell ; s there matters stopped for awhile. "A Freshman has a great deal to le ? ad you know ; but I think the chief thi Sam learned that term was the great c terence there is between Harvard anc little .village like Elmbank, and the gr difficulty of working and playing at. t name time. Here he had society nv. ingB to attend, and rooms of hi? _ov i with a. chum, where a good d {of smoking was done by fcicm j and his friends. And then ih< J was base-ball, into which it appeal ! indisoensiblo for the honor of t i ? class that he should enter sotively, j account of bia strong legs, wonderi j wind, and ground batting. He cou j not refuse to go to the theater oceanic s ally, with his rieher companions. S? ! took a natural interest to the society I young ladies, too, and had given 1 ; some time to ita cultivation. He al I thought a moderate amount of pra;rti I in the gymnasium wee desirable, to pt j vent his health from going down und 1 the confinement of study. So, ont whole, the actual work that he did the college waa not verj extensw This didnt seem to have any bad ene .till well along in the winter, when tl habit of shirking work had grown strong witljout his noticing it that 1 felT easily into reading novels when ! ought to have been in the recitatio room. Gymnasium, theater, b?liard smoking, and I am afraid I must soy little drinking, frittered away his tim " One horrible, snowy, sleety mor ing, when he had got up too late t< prayer, tlie postman brought him note front the faculty-an 4 admonition He dropped the pipe he waa just ligh ing, and bolted off to the recitatio: But he * deaded ' immediately, and th) discouraged bim. He soon began ! m?ke light of the warning, and did hin self no credit in his ?tudies. Thong he managed to squeeze through the e: amination at the end of the Fresh mo year, he came oat far down toward th foot of his class. He wasn't quite coi tented with himself, and thought ho' try to do better the next year. But dui ing the journey home he recovered hi usual spirits. 44 When he walked np the village tc j ward the-parsonage farm, he was thin* ing that-since he was a Sophomore no< -he would buy the knottiest and big gest-headed cane in Cambridge when h should go back there. And what d you suppose was the first thing that me Wm at jhcvne j> J?twasJiis father out^ it the field digging for new potatoes, bi coat off and his spectacled face perspir ing. The sight ?truck f.h&me into tbi boy. Ho vaulted the fence, and, .ur ning np with hardly a pause for gie? ing, cried : " ' O father, let mc do that. I dor.' like to see you at snob work.' "Mr. Blake ?topped, and looked earn estly ana rather sadly at him. " * Well, Sam, I think thefa about SJ good & how-do-you-do a? you could hnv< ofiered me. There's something gow ! about you siter ali.' "It had not occurred to Sam tba there waa any doubt on that poiut be fore. He blushed ss be aeked : j " . Where's the hired mau Y j M< I've discharged him. I can't *v ford one at present, ir. y son,' was th answer. '.'Sam was rather pawled, and begat to reflect. " Thev went into the bous*, and there, - * when the minister reappeared after mak ing his toilet, bia r-on noticed that v wote ibe old shabby, shiny coot. Ai thia be was more than ever astonished Tlie supper, also, notwithstanding it ww the first night of the prodigal's return, was very meager. Not a single extre luxury wee on tie table, and Sam ob served that bis father and. mother toofc no sugar nor butter. Bia cwn appetite began to fail at seeing this, and his per ception was sharpened accordingly. He was now aware that his father looked very thin, aa well as sad. Suddenly be laid down his knife; and exclaimed to his sister Katy : " 'Sis, what does all this man ?-thia going without the hired man, and starv ing yourselves Y "His sister looked at him, then glanced at Mr. Blake and her mother, and made no answer. " *I thought,' said Sam, petulantly, 'that WilKston's money was going to make it easy for you, father ; and here the pinching is going on five times worse than ever.' "'I don't own my friend Williston's money,' said the minister, quietly. " ' Of course not But the five hun dred dob- ' " Sam stopped abruptly on an entreat ing gesture from his sister. "The subject was not resumed ; but before he went to bed Sam obtained an interview with bis sister alone. He felt secretly that he was responsible for the depression and trouble which seemed to fill the household. But that only made .ym apeak more impetuously. 'Now, Sis/ ho began, ' can I get two words of senao ont cf you Y 1 "4 Not until you ask pol itely, ' site re plied. " ' Well, then, please tell me what tho mystery ia.' " ' It oughtn't ty be a mystery to you. Sam, that you haven't done well at col lege. Papa ia terribly disappointed.' '"I dou't see why he ahould try k> commit suicide, if he ia,' Sam retorted. 'I haven't cost him much this year.' '" Oh, yp?, you have. Bo you know bc actually sold his new coat ? " " ' Why ? ' Sam frowned. " ' Because hes beon trying every way to (save money aine.e he began to get reporta of ho'* you were wasting your time,' " 4 What tor ? ' asi.ed Sam, toongi; he began to suspect. "'Well, bor-how abo aid I know? Don't yea seo? Se1? $0 kW? had th&t money from his classmate, ano he's nearly saved enough, and he's going to pay it all back. There, I was to keep it secret, and now I've told yon ! ' And his sister burst into tears. 'Yon've nearly broken hi? heart, Sam-poor papa 1 ' " The next day Mr. Blake's aon went off directly af 1er breakfast, and was not seen again fill afternoon. Coming b^ack, he overtook bia father coming from the poatoffioe, N *. *I know all about it ! ' he exclaimed, in bia excitement ' Katy told me last night I wish, though, you'll held ou to the new coat a while..' "'Why? * asked Mr. Blake, imper turbably. .*'Because,' said Sam, 1 Fm going to pay my own wsy now. I've been off \' - day, and hired out for the season ti Farmer Hedgoburton. You won't ?end that money to Wiltiston, viii yon, father?' " ' You are too late,' was the minister's answer, 1 I've just mailed thoi letter lo bim.'
