can hy little contrivance. There
does not seem much to rctrcnch upon.
| have only two shilings in the world !;
and the three dollars | shall earn by
sewing this week and next must buy
our winters coal. Mrs Graham called
to-day for me to knit her boys some
socks, but could not commence them
for two weeks, and she wished them
directly"
90, mother" said Emma, with sud
den animation, " let me knit the socks
| could do it bcautifulIy7
DO You think you could, my daugh-
ter, with all your lessons to learn 2"
90, yes. | am sure | could if get
mp an hour earlier May try, moth
or, If she has not engaged some one
else ?"
Permission was given, and Emma
lost no time in running over to Mrs.
Graham's. The lady willingly gave
her the work to do, and she hastcncd
home with the huge ball of coarse
mixed yarn and measuring stock
ing" very happy at her success.
Early and late the click of her
bright needles might be heard, as she
sat by the window, book on her
knee, at which she often glanced, and
from which she was reciting her morn
ing lesson BY Saturday night one
pair was finished, and she received q
shining quarter from the kind-hcartcd
lady, instead of the shilling she ex-
pcctCd.
Iou, little friend, who have scarce
Y ever known a want, can not know
how rich that quarter made her.
The book was purchased, the book
seller being quite willing to wait a
few days for part Of the money, and
Emma commenced the study in right
good earnest, as, indeed, she did eve
~ other which she undertook. The
socks were all finished at last, the
book paid for, and Emma had half
dollar over, all Of her own earning.
1t bought two pair of warm WOODEN
5l".eo-olc lur her mot'ct ana one
for herself, which seemed 4 great lux
ury to both, as the old ones were very
tim and darncd III many places.
