Three years since he lived in a coun .ry village where his expenses were mud- rate and he found no difficulty in meeting tbem.

For a while be met with very good succesy, but hu louud the tenement house in which he was obliged t?. live, n poor substitute lor the neat little Cottage which ho hal occupied in the country, lie saw his mistake but he was too proud to go back "Of course I can't have as good accommodations hern as in fchc country,*' he said, "but it is something to live in and ho iu the midst of things."' ''I'd rather be tuck again," said his wife. "Some how this city d ?esu't seem like home. There ( used to run and take tea with a neighbor, and have a pleasant, social time.

If he had been ahme bo enuld have got aiong somehow, but it was a Bore trial to come to a checrl- .-s room und a pule wife und uugry ohild? ren with to relief to offer them. When on that evening Robot( Brtee went into the streets, he hardly kuew how ho was going to edeem the promise he bad made to little Jimmy, tic was absolutely penniless, and had been so it>r three daye. 0 There was D?ttling that he was likely to find to do thnt night "I will pawn my coat," ho said at last. "I cannot see my wife ari l child ren starve." "It was a well woru overcoat, and that eold winter night he needed some thing more to keep him warm.

Why should they he so happy and he o miser a de '{ '1 here Was one man, shorter than him self warmly ?clad, who passed him witli his bauds thrust dvep tutu the pocko ? of Iiis ?ivefC'iat. There was a pleasant Minle upon his face lie wa? doubtless ihiiikitig upon the happy cirole. at home. Hubert knew him as a rich merchant, whose ample warehouse he oft cd passed Um had applied to this man only two days before for employment ai.d had b*>en relused. It was perhaps, the thought of the wide ?lifF.;r.*nec between them, co far as outward circumstances went, that led K 'bort Urica to follow him After a while the merchant, Mr. Vrrimes, drew his handkerchief from bis poeke . A*1 he did so, he did not per ceive that his pocket book came with it and tell to the sidewalk. tie did not perceive it, but Robert did. His heart leaped into his mouth, and a sudden thought cutered his min 1. He bent quickly down and piokoJ up the pocket-hook II.' raised his eyes hastily to m;c if the nuvement was noticed. It was not. The merchant went on unheeding his loSS. '?Thi* will buy bread f.>r my wife and children,' thouuht It .b.-it instmtly. A vision of the comfort which the money would bring that ohecrlcss room, lighted up his heart for an instant, bit then, for he was not dishonest, there came another thought. The money war not' his. much as he wanted it. "Hut I cannot sco iuy wife and chil die. ? ?>t.*rve," he thou.: t a^ain. "If it is wrong l> k.'.ep Iiis oioney God wih pardon the offence. He will understand my motive. All this was sophistry, and he kuov it. In n moment he Cult it t i be so. There were so.no things worse than starvation. It wnsjusl what his wife said before he camo out. Could he meet her gazo. when he r turn :d with food ??o obtained ? ??I've lived honest so far," he thought "I won't tarn thief now." It was with au effort that he came to this decision, for ?II the while before his ?-ves there was that vision of a cheer less home, and could hear Jimmy vainly asking for food. It was with an effort that he stepped forward and placed his hand on the merchant's Bhoudcr. and extended the baud that held the pocket book. "Mir," lie vaid hoarsely, "you have dropped you pocket book." ?'Thank you," said the merchant, turning around, "1 hadn't perceived my lo>s " ?'You dropped it when you took out y u handkeruhiel."

'Yes, a drunken row. The church must take np his case.' 'Does Brother T. sell liquor?' 'Yes, and it is a prying shame; we must do our duty as a church.' A pause. 'Have you ever expostulated with Brother T. ?' asked the pastor. 'Never.' 'lias any member of the church, to your k nowledge ?' 'No. Brother T. is too old a man, and too 'irmly sei in his ways.'

Beside this, there is another source of u leastiness that presses unceasingly. It is in imputing every charge we discover, or think wc discover, in our friend, to some unknown influences that have as serted their power over hin, in our ab? sonce, and thus when we find that our argument have lost their old force* and our persuasions can be stontly resitted, we begin to think that some other bses* have usurped out place, and that there is treason in the heart we had deemed tobe loyally our own.?
