A Forty ACRE AND Mule SroKr A
Commercial Advertiser tells the follow
! ing story
| At the close Of the war there was
general impression among the negroes
that the estates Of their masters were TO
be cut up and divided among the ex.
slaves; every African mother WAS to
have forty acres and mule The story
is told in a neighhorins county that on
one occasion a Yankee, out at elbows,
strollng along ia search Of fsupper, met u
negro to whom he stated that he was
sent by Government 10 measure or the
allotments - Delighted to hear the good
news, the darksy said "You is de gem.
man, sab. dat we's been lookiA' for dis
long time " The Yankee reminded the
"nigger" that the Government fee was
$40, and after having got all the green.
backs the poor fellow had "on account"
promised to call for the balance. At the
the nsgro's request he wrote Q receipt"
and the following is copy Of the doeu-
ment:

the wilderness, so have lifted Five Dol

WILLING AND FAITHFUL "A few years
ago, a large drug firm in n provincial city
.dva, I f~. a hoy Next day the place
WAS thronged with applicants, among
them quccr.looking little fellow, accom-.
panied by a woman who proved to be his
aunt, in lieu OF faithless parents by whom
he had been abandoned Looking at the
little waif the merchant promptly said.
Cant take him--plnces all full; be.
sides. he is too small
:" know he is small - said tho woman,
" but he is willing and faithful. F."
There was twinkle in the boys oyes
which made the merchant think again
partner in the firm volunteered to re-
mark that he did not see what they
wanted Of such boy he wasn't big
enough But, after consultation, the
boy was set to work
A few days later, - call WAS made on
the boys in the warehouse for some one
to stay oil night. The prompt response
Of the little fellow contrasted well with
toe reluctance OF others In the middle
Of the night, the merchant looked in TO
Sc if all was right in the warehouse, and
presently discovered his youthful pro.
tege, busy cutting out labels
"Wha. are you doing ?" sad he II
did not tell you to work during the
night

thing. o."
In the morning tho cashier got orders
to double that boy. wages, for he is
riVing"
Only few weeks elapsed, before a
show OF wild beasts passed through the
streets, and very naturally all the hands
in the warehouse rushed to witness the
spectacle. A thief ssw his opportunity.
and entered at the rear door, to seize
something but in Il twinklng found him
self firmly clutched by the diminutiye
clerk aforesaid, and after struggle WAS
captured. Not only was robbery pre-
vented, but valuable articles taken from
other shops were recovered When ask
ed by the merchant why he stayed behind
to watch when all others quilted their
work. the reply was:
"Iou told me never to leave the ware,
house when others were absent, and
thought I'd stay"
Orders were Immediately given once
more, Double that boys wrses; he is
willing and foithfvi
To-day the boy is getting large sala.
