ATrusty Boy.

A few years ago, says a New York pa

tised for a boy. Next day the store was
thronged with applicants; and among them
came a queer looking little fellow, accom-
panied by his aunt, in lieu If Iaithless
parents by whom he had been abandoned.
Locking at this little waif, the merchant
of the store promptly said, Cant take
him, places all full. Besides, he is too
small"
az know he is SMALL said The woman;
but he is willing and faithful"
There was a twinkle in the boys eye
which made the merchant think again. A
partner in the firm volantteIed1 70 remark
that he did not see what fhey wanted of
such a boy; he wasn't bigger han a pint
of cider. But, after consultation, he was
set TO work.
A few Gays later . call was made on
the boys in the store for o-e 10 stay all
night. The prompt response oft httle
fellow contrasted well with the reluctance
of others. In the middle OF the night the
merchant looked in TO see If all was right IN
the store, and presently found his youth
full pTOtege busy scissering tables.
What are you doing? p said he. q

but 1 thought 1 might as well be doing

In the morning the cashier got orders to

TIE Minerva Commercial says that
Miss Belle Laferty, of Carroll Co., shot
herself in the left breast, the other day,
with a revolver. 1t seems that she had
been engaged to q young man living in
that vicinity. The wedding day came, (some
three months ago } the hour for the we'd
ding arrived, and Belle waited for her
delinquent betrothed. The exgeetant
bride passed the day in anxious waiting,
wondering what kept her loved, but IN
worthy chap away, and at night retired 70
her couch, not to sleep, but to pass the
night in anguish and tears The william,
who SO heartlessly Tilted her. had started,
on the day appointed for the wedding, for
Kansas. Ever since then Miss Laferty
has been broOding over her tTogble, and
the other day went into the granery, and
with q revolver sought TO put an end to
her existence. We understand that the
shot did not take effect in any vital part,
and that their vera hopes of her recovery.
