stores to ask if they didn't want boy,
and at last came to the one where the
gentleman was who sent you the letter.
He spoke roughly to me at first, and
then called me back and asked me who
was, and about my mother. told
him your name, and how father had
died, and you were sick. Then he sat
a good while, and didn't say anything
and then he wrote the note, and he told
me he would get me place. He was
kind looking man if he did speak
roughly at first.
Did you see what name was on the
sign?'
Il never thought to look replied the
boy, 'I was 50 glad when l came away.
But can go straight to the place.

thanking him for his kindness, and you
must take it to him i'll tho morning.
How light it makes my heart feel to

"a gentleman had called and wished to

Go and see who it is, ChnrIes,' she
said to her son.

in an under tone coming back quick,
''And he wants to see you. Can't he
come up?
There was hasty glance of woman's
eyes around the room to see if every
thing was in order, then few slight
changes in attire.
ASK him to come up my son. she

It's a lie exclaimed the nurse,
passionately.

The child said this in hushed whisper,

Mr.. Frazier sat down and bareing
the child's leg to the hip, saw that it
was covered with blue and green spots,
all above the knee there We're not less
than dozen of these distinguished
marks. He sexanined the other leg,
and found it in the same condition.
Mr.. Frazier loved that child with a
deep tenderness. She, was his all to
love. His mother between whom and
himself there had never been any SYM

Mr.. Frazier was profoundly dis

calm.

to leave the house Immediately
Mr. Frazier -
'SiIence!' He showed himself so
stern and angry even in his suppressed
uttorance of the word, that Jane started,
and left the room instantly.

As the waiter left the room, Mr..
Frazier huggrd his child to his heart
tightly again, and kissed her with an
cagerness of manner that was unusual
to him. He was fond but quiet in his
curesses. Now the sleeping impulses
of strong heart was all awake and
active.

.Oh, yes, sir, I'm strong!' and the
boy stood up in a brave spirit.
The merchant looked at him with a
steadily increasing interest.
What is your name ? he asked.
Charles Leonard, sir
There was an instant change in the
merchants manner, and he turned his
face so far away that the boys eyes
could not see its expression, For a
long time he sat still and silent-so
long that the boy wondered.
Is your father living!' Mr.. Frazier
did not look at the boy, but still kept
his face away. His voice was low, and
not very even.
No, sir. He died four years ago

Frazier, and turning to his desk, he

his hearers, in unpassioncd language wha,
