About the 18th or goth Of September

through his agent at Columbia, a peck Of
the rescue grass seed about the last Of
September planted it upon half acre

lie tried to do his work always to the best
OF Lis ability. He went to place, and
one day his master came to look at what
he had done, and after closely examining
it, he turned round and said to the fore
man:
James, this is very excellent work for
new boy"
Did not that little fellow feel as proud
as if he had won a triumph He was re-
warded from the start with the good Opiu-
Ion OF his employer, and he never forgot
the pleasure with which he heard his mas
ter's encouraging words. He always tried
to do his work well-to do the very best.
and while the other apprentices did not
seem to care how their work was done or
how they spent their masters time, he
took pride in working as though he was
in higher post now, and doing well in
more ways than one in this world.
