A QUESTION AND A REPLY.

THE YOUNG MAN TO THE OLD.
Say, whittier art thou going,
Thy hands upon thy breast,
Thy face toward the sunlight
Fast fading in the west2
THE OLD MAN TO THE YOUNG.
| am going, slowly going,
Uudismayed and undistressed,
To the last estate that's left me,
To the last maybe the best
To the regions of oblivion,
To the chambers of the blest,
''Where the wicked cease from troubling
And the weary are at rest |"
THE YOUNG MANS REPLY.
God have thee in His keeping
'Tis His, not our hehest
But is this all we come to
After our toll and quest?
Is nothing we aspire to,
O'verburdened and oppressed,
Ever to recompense US
Nothing but peace and rest2

How Some Of Our Merchants Have
Risen.

A few years ago large drug firm in
this city advertised for boy. The next
day the store was thronged with appli-
cants, among them q queer-looking little
fellow, accompanied by q woman, who
proved to be bis aunt, in lieu of faithless
parents, by whom he had been abandoned.
Looking at this little wait, the merchant
in the store said: "Cant take him; places
all full; besides, he is too small" ~
know he is small" said the woman; "but
he is willing and faithful" There was q
twinkle in the boys eyes which made the
merchant think again. A partner in the
firm volunteered to remark that he ibid
not see that they wanted such boy-he
wasn't bigger than q pint of cider" But
after consultation the boy was set to
work. A few days after call was made
on the boys In the store for some one to
stay oil night. Tho prompt response Of the
little fellow contrasted we'll with the re.
luctance of others. In the middle of the
night the merchant looked 10 to see if all
was right in the store, and presently
discovered his youthful protege busy
scissoring labels. "What are you doingG"
said he; II did not tell you to work
nl&ntS. II kuoW you ulu nOt tcii mo 80,
but I thought I might as we'll be doing
something" In the morning the cashier
got orders to "double that boys wages,
for he 10 willing" Only . few weeks
elapsed before show Of wild beasts
passed through the streets, and, very nat
urally, all hands in the store rushed to
witness the spectacle. A thief saw his
opportunity, and entered at the rear door
to seize something, but in twinkling
found himself firmly clutched by the d.
minutive clerk aforesaid, and after q
struggle was captured. Not only was
robbery prevented, but valuable articles
taken from other stores were recovered.
When asked by the merchant why he
staid behind to watch when all others
quit their work, he replied: "You told me
never to leave the store when others we're
absent, aud I thought I'd stay" Orders
we're Immediately given once more:
Double that boys wages; he IL willing
and faithful" To-day that boy 10 get
ting . salary of $4,000, and next January
will become member of the firm.
