necessary to state, accepted the propo
sition. and who was still more sur
prised to learn that it was Billy uio'
lions himself that had hired him.
/ In a few days the inhabitants OF that
Village were astonished by the appear
ance of a splendid new barber shop,
far surprising the other in elegance OF
APPOINTMENTS, and in which, with new
mugs soaps, razors, perfumes, stood a
barber and assistants ready to do duty
on the heads and boards Of the people.
Over the door was inscribed, William
Harrington, Shaving and Hair-Dressing
Saloon"
The people were not long in ascer-
tanning or slow in availing themselves
of the privileges Of this establishment,
and it is not to be wondered that 1t was
crowded and the other deserted. The
other held ont some weeks, suspecting
this free shaving-for Bill kept his Sc
cret well-was but dodge 10 entlce
customers away, who would soon be
charged as usual: but when at the end
of six weeks, he found Billy working
away as usual, charging not cent Tor
his labor, and having money TO spend,
he came to the conclusion that he must
have drawn a prize in the lottery, orr
stumbled upon a gold mine, and was
keeping barber shop for fun, SO he closed
the shop in despair and left the place.
Meanwhile Bill Harrington kept on
busy as a bee, and one fine morning his
employer stepped in, and, without a |
word, sat down and was shaved; on
rising from his scat he asked to see
the score for the six months past. The
barber exhibited il, and after a careful
calculation, the old man said:
PLENTY Of customers, eh:'
Lots Of EN-" said Bill; never did
such a business in my lilc,'
We'll" replied Money Bags, you
have kept the account well. see I've
paid YOU one hundred and twenty dol
lars for your serviccs-all highland
there are three hundred and thirty
charged for shaving all that applied:
now, this furniture cost one hundred
and eight dollars; balance due you one
hundred and two dollars. Here il is.
Now you own this furniture, and are
10 have this shop rent free six months
onger, and after to-day you are L.
charge the regular price for work, Tor
your pay from me stops today
This, Of course the barber gladly as
,ented 10.
But said the old man on leaving.
take care you never cheat man by
ten times the usual price Tor q

Say Something.
INSCRIBED TO WILLIE.

Standing with hand on the door-latch uplifted
Fair young face suddenly radiant with light,
"Say something" pouting lips cried; and
gave him.
Frnught with kind wishes, a smiling "good
night
No fathers hand on the young head in blessing,
No mothers tenderness, fervent and true,
Fell DER the spirit with daily caressng,
Sweet as the incense of 1ower-strewn dew.
So like sun-arrows set in dark wildwood,
Trembled the found words, with light in the
SOUL
Till the pure dreaming Of innocent childhood
Over the bosom in nights shadows stole.
"Say somethingw rings on the still air reproving
Falls on the memory, the eyes sunny light,
Till the good angel inscribes high purpose
Born in the depths Of my spirit, to night.
Love is tho lesson the swift hour is bearing
Ne'cr till we give of its fullness, can
Soar from the dust that encumbers this earth-lii,
Into the hope of the blest and the free.
Many true heart in silence is rining,
For the kind words that affection could give.
Many an crring one passed beyond pardon
Needed the sympathy nobly to live.
Good night dear boy. and may angels about tho
Fold their white pinions in tenderest grace,
And may tho God of the fatherlcss love thee,
Until death winneth the light from thy face
Beautiful dreams til, the morning ray cometh
Then be thy chosen path happy and bright,
Honor, and peace, and good fortune attend thee
Willie, dear Willie, L bio. .thee,good night
