Mine was by no means a model
place of residence. There were beer
gardens, drinking saloons and gam
bling houses out Of all proportion to
the more respectable shops and resi-
dcnces and we had two arrests Of
counterfe.ters, and there was scarcely

brawl among the ruflians around us
Still there Was school and timii

there.
How long an unprotected woman
might have lived there ! can only
guess, for Alice Holt had been there
but three months, when she consented
to walk into church with ne one day

in July, an" we'LaI occupied pret-

the telegraph business in the town, |

Your EVENINGS, BOYS We hope
that no boy who reads this is going in

took. It is safe, however, to receive

Great boys and little boys, here is

If your parents or guardians allow
you to go from home IN the evening,
where do you 60, and how is the time

He had been clerk about six
months, when Mr.. Phelps observed a
change in William. His cheeks grew
pale, his eyes hollow, and he always
seemed sleepy. At length, finding
William alone in the counting house

Pretty Well, sir, answered Wm.
You have looked sickly Of late,
