CAST m A LINE.

A country lad stood looking at
au old man fishing one day. He
could not help wishing that he had
such a fine basket Of fish.
ssThere are twenty fish" said the
old man; II will give thee an equal
number, if thou will tend this line
for me while / am gone"
The lad was delighted at the pro-
posal, aud eagerly took his seat. Il
was q fine fishing morning, and there
were plenty Of hungry fish in the
stream; 50 the boy met with excel
lent success. By-and-by, as the old
man was long gone, the fish in his
basket numbered more than those in
the one he had coveted.
After q time the owner Of the line
came back, and, counting out the
twenty fish from those the boy had
caught, left him this advice: "When
thou art in want, do not waste thy
time in idly wishing, but cast in
line for myself"
Lay this advice to heart, boys, i
you ever wish to succeed. "Tht
Lord helps those who help them
selves" If you pray without work
ing, your prayer will not be answer
ed. If you have an honest calling,
no matter how humble, your work
will be honorable. But when God
opens the way for you to do some
thing better, improve the opportuni-
ty. AL the boys that ever rose 70
coed positions in the world learned
to cast in line for themselves.
Remember that those who loiter
always lose the race. Seek Gods
blessing in an honest, earnest en-.
deavor after a useful life. "The
blessing Of the Lord, it maketh rich,
and be addesh no sorrow with it,"

Suddenly all in the store, Fifty or
more, were attracted by the talk Of
an old man, who, when / looked,
was handing an elegant looking
watch to the auctioneer. listened
attentively to the dialogue between
them.
Old Man "Pray put this up and
get me all you can for it,"
The auctioneer after examining
exclaims:
"Why this is of English make,
and worth at least $780,"
Old Man-"Never mind, get all
you can for it; I'm tired and dis

my family"
Auctioneer-"Well we'll can't
warrant you fifty dollars for it."
The watch is put up, the old man
with tears in eyes is taking his last
look at it. The bids come in ten,
fifteen, twenty, thirty, forty, and
finally it is knocked off at forty-tive
dollars to a man who gloa.s over his
great bargain. But this is not the
end, for if you wait about a haitian
hour longer when the crowd Of buy
ers and gapers has renewed itself,
you will see the same old man with
another $3.50 English watch appear
and plead once again for any price

visited the factory where it was

Of Italian cities, the rotten linen torn
from the corpses of the mummies in
the catacolnbs of Egypt. Ragmen
of Paris, ragmen Of London, and
ragmen of American cities had all
