"Felt Her Pull, of Course P*
There wu a Sunday-school colobra
tion in one of the churches a week or
two ago, aud the minister made a speech
to the children, iu which he endeavored
to teach she nature of faith. So he told
them the followiag story by way of
illustration : In the deepening twilight
of a summer's eveniug a pastor called at
the residence of one of his parishioner*
and found seated in the doorway a little
boy with hands extended upward hold
ing a line. "What are you doing here,
my little friend ?" inquired the miuiater.
"Flying my kite, sir," was the prompt
reply. "Flying your kite !" exclaimed
the pastor. "I can see no kite?you
cau see none." "I cannot see it, ball
i know it is there, for I feel it pull 1" The
children were all deeply interested, and
the clergymen continued : "Now, in a
few days after this, the mother of the
little boy was about to die, and she said
to him : "My son, when I am an angel,
I will come, if I can, and be with you,
and shield you from harm, and watch to
see that you grow up to be a good man,
Will you try my darling to th'.nk some
times that I am by your side ?" And
the little boy said ho would. "Now, my
dear children," said the minister, "when
that blessed angel came back from
heaven and hoTernd over her child, and
placed her hands upon his head among
tho fair and golden hair, how did he
know thai she was there, for he could
not see her?" "Why, he f<lt 1i<-r p<Jl,
of course !" roared t*nc class in unison,
and with tho promptness of absolute
certainty. The speaker sit down all of
a sudden, at.d the exercises concluded
with tho singiug of a hymn.
1 {egging For Work.
*.<-.<
"Can you gire me any work, sir ?"
said a travel-worn tad. one day to a Cin
cinnati merchant.
'Got all the help I want,* was tho
short, bnt kindly spoken reply of tho
busy merchant.
Mt's hard," Tej dhcd the lad, *that a
fallow who is willing to work can't get
a job. I've been all over th in city, and
j into all tho si ?res, aud nvbody wants
help.'.
?Why did you come to Cincinnati V
quired the merchant, looking aakaaoe at
the desponding lad.
"Because I want to earn enough io
help my widowed mother and sister who
live in Illinois. They depend ou me
mainly for their support.
This roply, with the peculiar manner
of the lad somewhat inovod th-; mer
chant's feeling*, aud he asked?
'What are you willing to do?"
'Anything, sir. Anything in the
w -rid that I can do.'
Well, go and take hold with the men,'
roplied the taarchaut, pointing to the
hoiatway, up which bags of coffee, bar
rels of rieo, and other heavy packages
were ascending.
Without hesitation, the lad pnfled oil
his jacket and began pulling lustily at
the rope. Clearly, ha meant to do the
best he could. Toward night the mer
chant said to tho foreman?
'ITow is that strange lad working?'
'Like a beaver, sir. He is killing
himself,' responded the man.
When werk was over tho merchant
offered the work worn lad a dollar.??
'No, rir. I've not earned a dollar.
Give me half a dollar, sir. It's all I've
earned, and will buy mo a supper and a
lodging."
This was uncommon honesty. It
pleased the merchant. He bade the lad
come again in the morning. He did so.
During the day, ia tho absence of ihn
foreman, he wrote down the weight of
several packages as they were weighed
off His figures were so beautifully
formed that the merchant noticed them,
and inquired who wrote them* Finding
them to be the work of the stranger, hs
called him into his office, and bade him
writ* a hue as a specimen of hit hand
writing. The wtiting was so beautiful
that the merchant readily admitted him
not only to his employ, but into hia con
fidence and affectionate regard. So that
this poor boy bceama, successively, his
servant, carrier, clerk, book-keeper,
parluer and heir.
