The Value uf a liuud Name

IF we could tell our boys and girls how
many hundred times in life, and in how
many unexpected ways, they will find it to
their profit as well as pleasure to have q
reputation for truthfulness and integrity
that no suspicious circumstances can de-
stroy, they would hardly believe u.s. And
yet just such things often happens as are
narrated in this story, which we find going
round the papers:
In the school of DR.. Woods, none were
allowed TO enter the conservatory with
out leave; but boys handkerchief, with
his name upon it, had been found there.
Just at the close of school. the doctor call
ed the name of James Howard. The whole
school became silent with suspense. James
Howard, what has he done such a noble
boy. such good boyr-all thought DR..
Woods himself b lieved he must have been
sent into the conservatory by the teacher
of botany. SO he asked,
James Howard, have you been into the
conservatory, today"
Il have rot sir, replied James, in q
clear, calm tone
81 believe, you James" said DR. Woods.
although your handkerchief has been
found there. You are not the boy to tell
an untruth."
So James sat In bis seat unmoved. Eve
~ boy in the school believed him, and al
most envied him his good name.
DIR. Woods said no more on this subject,
except these few words: Let every boy
learn from this incident the worth of a good
name, especially when appearances are
against You"
How came James handkerchief in the
conservatory? for, as | have said, it was
contrary to the rules of the school for a
boy TO enter there unbidden. James had
oaned it to small boy, named John Rand,
o tie up some nuts. the dsy before. when
hey had little ramble together The
boy forgot to retuCn il. He also forgot the
rule OF the school against entering the con-
servatory, bnt seeing the door open, rush.
cd in to lcok at some rare flowers The
being partly out of his poek-
ct, dropped upon the ground.
See here the evils of needless forgetful-
ness. The boy had exposed schoolmate
to censure; aud, had it not been for James
good name. his teacher would
have surely thought him to be the offender
At least, so thought John Rand.
How ashamed he felt when Dr.. Woods
said those words about good naDei The
words kept ringing in his ears. He had
broken a rule of the school, and was afraid
20 own it. He thought the Doctor would
lespise him il he knew. and SO would the
boys. All that day, all that night, be had
10 peace. At length he went to james He
vas not afraid to tel him all aboutit
Il did forget it. James; truly, honestly,
lid" said the child; ''but I'm afraid the
Doctor won't believe me as he does you-''
Yes be will, replied James. "You have
,een SO short time In school, there some
xcuse for you. Go at once, and own mp;
or the longer you put it off the bsrder it
vill be. Always own fault at once Don't
,e afraid, the Doctor will forgive YOU"
Thus encouraged, the boy went to Doctor
Yoods. confessed his fault, and was for-
etfulness which he always remembered.
