LEAN, awkward boy came one morning to
the door of the principal of a celebrated
school, and asked to see him. The servant
eyed his mean clothes, and thinking he
looked like beggar more than anything
else, told him to 90 around to the kitchen.--
The boy did as he was bidden, and soon ap-
pearcd at the back door.
81 should like to see Mr." said he.
"You want u breakfast more like" said
the servant girl, "and | can give you that
without troubling him" 80
"Thank you," said the boy, 81 should
have no objection to bit Of bread; but |
should like to see Mr., if he can see
me-"
"Some old cloths,may be,what you want"
remarked the servant, again eyelng the
boys patched trousers. II guess he has
none to spare; he gives away sight" and
without mindng the boys request, shewent
away about her work.
"Can see Mr.--W again asked the
bov, after finishing his bread and butter.
"Well, he's in the library; if he must be
disturbed, he must; but he does like to be a.
lone sometimes, said the girl, in peevish
tone. She seemed to think it very foolish
to admit such an i'll locking fellow into her
masters presence; however she wiped her
hands, and bude him follow. Opening tie
library door, she said:
"IIere's somebody, sir, who is drcadlully
anxious to see you, and SO ] let him in"
Idon't know how the boy introduced him
self, or how he opened his business; but
know after talking awhile, the principal put
aside the volume which he was studying,
and took up some Greek books and began to
examine the new conner. Every question
which the prncipla asked, the boy answered
as readily as could be,
Upon my word" exclaimed the princi-
pal "you certainly do well!'' looking at the
boy from head to foot over his spectacles
"Why, my boy, where did you pick up SC
much"
SIN my spare moments" answered the
boy.
Here he was, poor, hard-working, with
but few opportunities for schooling, yet al
most fitted for college, by simply improving
his slare moments. Truly, are not spare mo-
ments the "gold dust of time!" How pre-
cious they should be! What account car
YOU show for them! Look and see. This
boy can tell you how very much can be
laid up by improving them; and there ART
many, many other boys, am afraid, in tht
jail, in the house of correction, in the fore
castle of a whale ship, in the gambling
house, who, if you should ask them where
they began their sinful courses, might an
swcr; "ln my spare moments" .""ln my spare
moments gambled for marbles" "lr
my spare moments | began to smoke ant
drink" at was in my spare moments tha
began to steal chcstnuts from the old wo
mans stand" at was in my spare moment
that gathered with wicked associates"
Oh, be veryTery careful how you sPen
your spare moments! Temptation alway
hunts you out in small seasons like these
when you are not busy; he gets into you
hearts, if he possibly can, in just such gaps
There he hides himself planning all sort
of mischief. Take care Of your spare mo
ments.-MrS. II. G. Knight
