81 LOFE AN HONEST POX.~

The other day, our little boy went
'ver tosacob Abrahan's clothing
Store to get a two-dollar bill changed.
By some mistake, Abraham made a
mistake in the change-paid him
twenty-five cents too much.
We vent little Frank back to re-
turn the extra quarter, which, by the
way, looked a little ragged. Enter
ing the store and holding out the
ragged money, the boy said:
"You changed q two dollar bill for
me, here's a quarter"
"Shanged nodink! ! shanged no
bills mit!'' exclaimed Jacob, thinking
Frank wanted him to take a ragged
quarter back.

he commenced to mo, out from be-

"Oh, you did't give me the quar-.

just a quarter ahead" and he started
to go out.

himself in an attitude of admiration,

quarter, he led the boy back to the
rear end of the store, and selecting
an apple about the size of q marble,
he presented it to the boy, and pat
