SELECTED STORY.
on the
RUNAWAY SON.
-:o:
"John, give tue back that book." These
words, spoken in a harsh toue by his father,
caused John Morton to start in affright.
"Flense, father, I was only?"
"No words," interrupted tho futhor?"give
me the book !"
With tcV.rful eyes nnd trembling hands John
passed che book to his father, who immediate
ly threw it into the fire.
"?No-'.V, sir, go and finish chopping that brush,
and remember, if you quit it again, before it is
nil done, I'll give you a whipping."
Mr. Morton was a stnajj farmer, who lived a
few miles from the village of M -, iu
Massachusetts. A man of no literary. taste,
himself, he could not end ate it in others; and
for this reason was an unkind and often unjust
father towards John, his second son, who loved
books better than anything else in the world.
John was not a lazy boy, but as a farmer boy
knows no such thing as leisure, he was obliged
to do his reading at such times as ho could
stepl from his work, when his futhor was. not
by. George, his elder brother, was his oppo
site in every respect ; he was a good farmer,
but the ddn'oe' at school. "I tell you What it
is, John" lie would say,."I- wouldn't give a
snap of my lingers for all your book learning;
but if you like it, go in, if tho old roan will
let you ; but as for mc, I am bound to stick to
tho farm."
John hud been saving his money for some
time, to buy a fine edition of Cooper's works
complete, which nn acquaintance had bought
at auction in a neighboring towu, and not
caring much for it, had offered it to him for
half price.
Tho night before our story commences, John
had procured the long coveted treasure, und in
the'morning had commenced to read us soon as
it was light. From this ho was soon called by
his father to chop a load of brush he had just
brought in.
Ifeluctautly John left the book and went to
tho task, but the departure of his futhor after
anothcr"ioad was too much for him; ho left the
brush heap, and. wan soon absorbed in his
book.
Mr. Morton had gone.but a short distance,
when he remembered some directions which he
had forgotten to give George, and returned.
As ho nearcd the house, he missed the sound
of tho hatchet. When ho entered tho house,
there sut John comfortably before tho firo,
completely lost in his book. It was this that
made him angrily burn tho book. With a
bursting heart. John went ,to the brush heup
again and commenced his work. He worked
Steadily all duy, but spoke not a work to any
one.
George, fibbing how had he felt aboutit, good
liatUTcdly said to him :
"NdVOr mind Jack, I wouldn't care?let it
go, nnd the next timo I go to tho city I'll get
you another."
"And what if you do ?" replied ttohfi, sad
ly, "he will not let mo read it. I tell you,
George, it's uo use; I'm going away where 1
ean have 'a ehanco t?: study ns much an"'l|
Jplpase." ; r* ? *\
U{Oh, lUOnsQuse, Jack," said Georgo,: "yoi*\
will soou got over it. As lor my part, 1 can't
'sec what you Qod so interesting in books. I'd
rather go iuto tho corn-Gold and work thoy
.hQttcsM'auy'ni BOihtncrtndtf Co" l.a'f^td^et 6neJ
lesson of ahy'ddiraV'! ?' - -: ? ?Jt'1 "?
f '"I know itbat;": said John j "it's your nature,'
-but I cau't do the farm work-, it isn't in me, I
was never mennt for it, and therefore, to-nipr
row morning I'm going, como what may."
George tried to change his mind for somo
time, b?t finding him 'determined, helped him
to get ready to tho best of his ability, forcing
him .to accept all his ?pure pocket money, tell
ing him that he could re; ay itwheu he got
rioh.
"But one thing, Jack," said ho, "whatever
you ao, be an ' honest man. ' You'll make a
smarter man than ever I shall, I am sure of
that. And remember, I expect to be here as
long as J live. So if at any timo tho world
goes bi;rd with ,you, dou't forget,hoine."
- The next morning at breakfast?! John was
missed. An examination of his ruom showed
that he bad taken his little burnt Ie of clothes,
and gave evidence to his father that he had
gone for good.
"Nevermind," said he, "he'll soon bo back."
* , * * * * * *
Thirteen years have passed since John Mor
ton left the old homestead, aud contrary to his
father's prediction, he had not conic back.
In the meantime, things had not gone on
smoothly at the farm. Farmer Morton had
givon up the whole charge of the farm to
George, who had married a "girl iu the neigh
I borhuod, and was now tho father of live chil
dren. Years before, iu a ease of cmergcuc}-,
Fanner Morton had mortgaged the farm to a
I small ainount, and ever since the marriage ol
J Georgo, in spite of all his exertions, tho mort
gage had been gaining ground, until now the
placo must bo sold, as he could not meet the
terms of agreement.
? This was a terrible blow to George and the
old man, hut there was no help for it: their
friends and neighbors were no better off than
themselves, aiid therefore could not help thorn*'
had they bec? ever So much inclined,
It was a bitter bold night iu December, and
they.were seated around the kitchen fire. It
I was to be their last night at home, for the
next day would be tho sale, and then they
{ would be houseless. Farmer Morton sat with
J bis head "buried iu bis hands'. At times he
would raise it Up and ga/.e upon some cherished
article, as if totako a last farewell, and then
bowiug.it again, would ?.ob aloud.
"Come, come, father,'' said Georgo, "don't
bo so dowu-buarted. Cheer up, cheer up. 1
am young yet j and if I live, and hard work
will do it, you shall come back to the old place
yet." .
"I cannot hope for it, George," returned the
old man. "It will require years of successful
labor; and 1. tun old aud cannot last long. 1
hud hoped to diu iu the old house, but I am
afraid it cannot be. Sixty years I have passed
?here, boy and man, and it is hard to leave
now?" ' '
They were interrupted by a knock at the
door, and upon opening it, there entered a
youug man very shabbily grossed. For a mo
ment ho stood surveying the group, with tears
in his eyes, uud then reached forth his hand,
exclaiming:
"George, do you not recognixe mc""
"Father, it is John," exclaimed George, joy
fully seizing his hand, and leading bint towards
his father.
The old man arose, and turning towards him,
exclaimed :
"John, my son!" at the same timo stretch
ing forth his arms?then suddenly drawing
himself up to his full hoight, be said, "John,
for thirtoon years you havo been a stronger to
me ; duripg that time we have known neither
whore yuu were, nor what you were doing; can
you givojne the hand of an honest many
"I can, sir r replied John, proudly, and the
next moment ho was folded in his father's
arms.
Next followed :inquirios from John as to how
things had gone iu his abseucoj and ho soon
learned the whole story.
"Ab for you," said George, "I do not need
to ask how tho world has gone with you?that
coat speaks for itself. But uever mind; I
have some better clothes up stairs, and yo\? arc
welcome to take your pick. But what have
you boon doing, Jack ; trying to get a living
by books?"
"Yes," replied John, "I have lived entirely
by books;!"
"And a poor liviug you have hud, I'll bo
bound," said the old man j never knew a
book-woru yot, who over turned out much."
"But it seums that wo shall' bo equals to
morrow, father," said John, pleasuutly.
"That's Ver^ true," answered his father,
rather testily, "but had you stuck to tho farm
with George, this had not been V*
"Never mind, father," Haiti John, "go to
bed now, nnd Georgo and I will try and make
?some provision lor the future."
, After tho old man had left them, John said
ho was rather futigucd, and bcliovod that he
would retire also.
"But," said Georgo, "you havo not inquired
as'to our future prospects. Do you not wish
to know?"
it! "No,'' said John, rather shortly, "not to
night; I don't feel interested." And taking
his light, with a yawn, he left the room.
George felt hurt. "After all," thought he,
"he has changed. He don't seem to care what
becomes of us. Never mind?poor fellow, no
doubt ho has seen hard times, until they have
?hardened even his heart."
Tho next morning found John Morton en
gaged in a noisy romp with tho wholo of his
brother's children. Indeed, so far did he car
ry it, that he received a cutting rebuke from
his father, for his heartlcssncss.
"I can't help it father," ho replied, "every
thing reminds mc so much of childhood, that I
cannot realize that I am a man."
At twelve o'clock the auctioncr appeared, iu
compauy with those who were disposed to bid
for the place. Immediately Upon their arrival,
John took tho auctioneer nsidc and conver-ed
with him earnestly for a few moments. Soon
after tho.auctioneer mounted upon the steps,
and said:
"Gentlemen, I have been requested by the
celebrated author, Morton J. Hall, of Iloston,
to bid upon this place for him as high as thirty
five hundred dollars. If nny of you feel dis
posed to bid higher than that we will proceed,
otherwise, there is no need."
As no one seemed disposed to make any
advance upon that bid, the place was declared
sold, and soon the family was again left alone.
"Well," said the old man at dinner, "the
worst is over; aud I shouldn't wonder if wc
could hire the place from this Mr. Hall, who
seems to be a city man."
. "Oh, yes/' said John, "T know you can.
Ho don't care anything about farming. '1
kuow him well."
"Don't say any n ore !" cried George-, jump
ing up, and seizing both his brother's hands,
r*irtatonc expression betrays you; "ho dou't
like farming.' John, you John, you are this
Morton J. Hall! I half suspected it this
morning; for you never was hard hearted
when a boy, and you didn't act the part very
well."
Tho olil man cried for joy.
"I see now, John," said he, "I did not un
derstand you as a hoy. I thought hooks would
be your ruin ; hut, instead, they have saved
me from want."
"You arc right, father," said John, "I am
worth, to day, ten thousand dollars, all earned
by my pen ; while, had I stayed by the farm, 1
should have been as poor?yes, poorer than 1
found you; for you and George arc good farm
ers, while I could never fix my mind upou it ;
in fact, it is evident that I was not born to be
a farmer."

A raw Irishman, just over, went into a res
taurant, and was asked by the waiter what ho
would havo? "Why, wittles to ate, av coorse,"
was tho reply. A plate of hash was placed
before him. "Fot's that?" domanded Mickey.
"That's wittles," was the answer. Mickey
eyed tho compound suspiciously for some time,
ami finally exclaimed?"Bo jabers, the man
that chewed that can ate it."
A poor Irishman applied to one of the over
8ocr8 of tho poor for rcliof, and upon some
doubt being expressed as to whether ho was a
proper object for parochial relief, ho enjorced
his suit with much earnestness.
"Och, yer honor," said ho, "edre I'd be
starved long since but for my cat."
"Butfor what?" asked tho astonished in
terrogator.
"My cat," rejoined tho Irishman.
"Your cat ? how so?"
"Sure, yor honor, I sould her eleven times
for sixpeneo a time, and she was always home
before I could gel there myself."
