the family of Mr.. Carlton. 1t is no light thing,
gentlemen, let me tell you, to break down man
who is struggling TO sustain himself for the sake
of those who dear to him. 1t is no light
thing to extinguish the bright hearth fire, and
scatter those who have gathered for years around
it,"
In the eager pursuit of wealth, mems hearts
become incrusted over, and they seem to lose all
regard for each others personal condition. It re-
quires something more than usual to break up the
incrustaton. The words of Mr. Highland had
the effect to do this with more than one If Carl
toms creditors even Elder did not reply to what
he said, but this was more from shame than any
other feeling.

"Ihen let us do by him as we would be done

OF this decision, Carlton could not hide his emo

ful acknowledgement for the favor granted, touch

toward him short time before. How different
were his feelings when he met his family that
evening, and silently thanked Heaven that the
cloud which had lowered over and threatened to
break in desoating tempests had passed from the
sky"
Long before the arrival of the time for which
an extension had been granted, Mr.. Carlton was
able to pay off everything and to look in the face
without unpleasant emotions, every man he met
