which resulted i'm finding his hat in the
creek just south Of town and at that
time swollen to the dimensions ola river.
The alarm being given, the citizens
turned out generally to assist in finding

True Story ola Clerk.

A New England merchant doing large
business requiring several clerks, short
time since missed several articles of value
from his store He determined TO watch
the habits of the young men, to discover
if possible, which one. if either of them.
was untrustworthy. There was one of them
who appeared particularly active aud faith
full: bis dress was inferior that Of the other
clerks; and was not particularly popular
among them. The merchant learned that this
young man remained for half an hour or
more after others left with the door of the
store locked This circumstance awakened
his suspicious, and he arranged q plan to
conceal himself in the store, SO that he might
discover what occurred when the clerk sup
posed himself to be unobserved. Having
sent the young man upon an errand just be-
fore the hour of closing he entered his place
of concealment. The door was locked as
usual, at the proper time. The clerk at
once began to sweep and put the establish
inent in order.
While waiting for the dust to settle, he
was seen to go behind the counter, and ia
king something from beneath it, placed it i'll
the breast of his coat The merchant was
now alive to discover what had been taken.
and what was to be done with it. The young
man went to the window ana sat in silence
Il few moments, apparently examining the
package which he had taken from his breast
The merchant was not long left in doubt -
His clerk soon fell upon his knees he saw
that it was Bible he had been reading and
now he offered aloud a simple and touching
prayer, for himself, his mother, and sister.
his employer, and particularly for brother
clerk, who, he feared, was yielding to temp
tation After he had finished busting he
left the store, unconscious of having had a
human eye upon him.
1t is easy to believe that the merchant was
deeply affected by what he had seen and
heard. This clerks salary was increased
several hundred dollars year. and he was
given the position made vacant by the dis
charge of another whose criminal acts had
been discovered.

The man who can draw New Orleans mo-

but he amt student for this climate.
The live man is as full of Dizziness as the
conductor of street car; he is often, like a
hornet, very bizzy; but about what nobody
knows.
He lites up like cotton factory, and amt
got any more time to spare than IA schoolboy

He is like a decoy duck, always above the

year.
He is like runaway hoss-he gets the

He is the American pet. q perfect mystery

He don't always die rich but always meets
death like an oyster, without any fuss.
