help ?tate his case concisely- 'yon see,
I founoTthe house easily enough, and
r knocked on the outer door which stood
ajar, but nobody heard, me, so I stepped

2> crack of another door, just as cozy a
V ' sitting room as there ever was.

^aeea.sadder things -than ever that would
S?to.?1 Se reminded God in the next
place how d?n?rent it all might have
been if only one of their boys bad been
spared them; then his voice kind of
. ^t?rpke^ /and a thin, whitey hand stole
from nuder the coverlet and moved
'softly :Ove? his snowy hair; then he
. wennon to.r?neat ?hat-nothing could be
'so sharp again as the part?ug with those
three sons-unless mother and he should
?V??fep?rated. But at last he fell to
comforting himself with the fact that
the^dear Loid knew it was through no
fault of his own that mother and he
were threatened with'the loss of their
^w^irtle^bome, w:hich . meant beggary

be fell to quoting a multitude of promi?
ses concerning the safety of those who

shonld.say he.begged. bard ? in- fact, it
was .the. most thrilling plea to which I
ever listened ; and at last he prayed for
God's^lessing on those who were about
to demand justice'-the lawyer stroked
his lower limb in silence for a moment

']?nd-I-^believe-Td rather go to
the poorhouse myself, to-night than to
stain my heart and hands with the blood
of such a prosecution a3 that.'
..Little afraid to defeat the old mau's
prayer, eh ? auefied the client.
.Bless-yoar soul, man, you couldn't
defeat it ? roared the lawyer. 'It
doesn't admit of defeat ? I tel! you he
left it all subject to God ; but he left
Dodoubtas to his wishes io the matter;
claimed . that we, were told to make
J??ownoxxr desires-unto Gor! ; but of all
???Be pleading lever heard, that beat all.
- You sec,?I was taught that kind, of
r;thing myself in childhood, and. why I
2^was sent to hear that prayer Tm sure 1

listen to petitions not intended for your

The lawyer smiled.
*My. dear fellow,' he said, you're
wrong again; it teas i o ten dod for my
- :ears, and yours too, and God Almighty
intended it. My old mother used to |
sin"- about God's mov'iog ia a mysteri
V oas-way, I remember.
: *Well my mother used to sing it too,'
said the claimant, as he twisted bis |
claim-papers in his fingers. 'You can :

A, An, And The,
The older grammarians used to ieacn
that these three words constituted a
separate -part of speech, which they
called /Articles.' It was a wonder to
us wjbry, there- were two forms of the
indefinite article,-*an* and 'a,* and
only one of the definite.
The truth is that in pronunciation,
though not in spelling, there are two
forms of the article 'the,' as distinct
as those of the indefinite article. When
itx?ciiri before.a word Beginning witlr
a vowel sound, we prouounce it 'thi,'
like the first three letters of 'this ;'
but, when the nest word begins with a
consonant sound, we call it 'the,' like
the first three letters of 'then.' 'The
man plays on the [tht] organ,'
As to the indefinite article, some
overlook an important exception to the
usual rule. Though 'a*, regularly
precedes a word beginning with a con*
sonant sound, .'an* is used by the best
writers and speakers, if the following
word beginning with h is accented on
the second syllable. We say *a histo?
ry/ but *an historical work.' So, 'an
harmonious combination. - .
Silent Letters.
We have many words in which cer?
tain letters, though necessary to the
spelling, have no iufiaence on the pro?
nunciation, in these cases, it is as
great an impropriety to give these let?
ters any sound whatever as to fail to
utter others .which custom requires tobe
distinctly pronounced. m
. The final syllable '-ten* in many
instances gives no sound to either t or
e We pronounce *fasten,' 'hasten,'
.chasten,' 'listen,' 'glisten,' 'moisten,'
.christen/as if they were spelled 'fas'n,'
*has*n,' &c.
In like manner, and especially, we
call 'often' 'of o,' 'soften' sofn.'
In final '-tie' after s, the t is almost
always silent; as in Vpistle,' 'apostle,'
'castle,' 'wrestle,' 'bustle,* 'thistle,'*
.jostle,' 'nestle,* pronounced epis'l,'
j 'apos'l.' &c.
We have several words mostly de?
rived from the Greek, in which the first
letter is sileut because of the difficulty
of pronouncing it ia combination with
the second. Instances of these are
'mnemonics:' 'psychology,* 'pneumonia/
'phthfs?c,'~'"Ptol?my/ 'gnomon / besides
ainumber which begin with hi or gn ;
:as?'knife/ *gnat/ &c.
