"If he wasn't lame I'd take him into
nv family" observed one of the men In
n tone that seemed to show he blamed
the boy for his misfortune.
"Well, it's awful hard" sighed one
of the women, fbut l know he couldn't
get along with my children"
"Nor with mine,n added a second.
"If / should take him he'd run up
big doctors bill on me" said man as
he filled his pipe.
Each and every one had some excuse.
The boy heard them all without q
word, but with quivering chin and
ewes full of tears. Under one pretext
and another all slipped out and left
him alone, promising to have another
talk in the morning. Perhaps that
night before they closed their eyes IN
sleep some of them thought of the poor
lad lying in the dreary room alone and
almost helpless, but if so, none OF them
went near him. Late in the morning
woman living on the same floor went
in to see if he might not want bite to
eat, and the question of who should
take care of him was settled. God had
taken care of him. Rugged close to
the wall, as if he feared the midnight
shadows, and with eye-lashes yet wet,
he was dead and cold, no longer bur-
den to any one. The boy, too lame to
be taken care of on earth-tOo feeble to
earn the cIusts that some one would
have given him-had home better
than the best. When they knew that
he died alone, women bent over him
aud wept. When they lifted his vast
ed body from the bed, mems conscien-
ces smote them for their harsh words,
but it was too late. He had gone from
earth feeling that there was no mercy
in the human heart.

How He Improved His Manners
From the Galveston News. |


He was a rough-looking customer,
and it was plain to see that he had new
er enjoyed the advantages of a college
education. He stalked into the rail-
road office, his object being to see the
superintendent, whom we shall call
Jones, because that does not sound at
all like his name.
els Jones in 2" he bawled out.
The clerk, motioning to the superin-
tendent, replied: THAT gentleman is
Mr.. Jones'"
The intruder walked up to Superin-
tendent Jones's desk and said -
give got letter for you"
The superintendent does not believe
in excess of style, but thinks that the
prophecies ought to be maintained.
"My dear sir" said the superintend-
emf, "don't you think it would have
been more appropriate for you to have
entered quietly, walked up to the desk
ofthe clerk and said, Good morning 2
He would have passed the compliment
of the season, and asked you what you
desired. On your requesting to see me
the clerk would have pointed me out tc
you. You might have said Good
morning. Iwould have responded in
an appropriate manner"
The man turned on his heel anG
walked out, without saying another
word, but it was not long before be
came back. He tripped up to the
clerk, and, dofing his hat, made bow
that Chesterfield might have envied
and said in musical tone of voice =
"Good morning, sir"
"Good morning, sir" responded tn,
clerk.
Looking straight at the superintend
ent, he asked =
"Will you be kind enough to point
me out Mr.. Jones, the superintendent o
the road r.
"The gentleman sitting at the desk
there is Mr.. Jones.n
Thanks" and he tripped over to th,
desk of Mr.. Jones, where he bowed
once more, removed his hat, and ask
ed:-
"Mr. Jones, l believe ~
Eyes, sir, that's my name"
The stranger craned his neck out
and as demoniac scowl passed owe
; his features, he Missed OUT
"Mr. Jones you can go to Halifax"
With that he turned on his heel, and
as rigid as ramrod, he marched out

California Faith in Converting the
Chinese.

From the San Francisco Argonaut Oct. 81
A small association of very excellent,
most enthusiastic, and altogether excel
lent females has established a Chinese
Home in San Francisco. 1t is branch
of Presbyterian Foreign Missionary
Society for the Conversion of the Hea-
then. To US it seems very absurd
and misdirected effort. We have never
seen a we'll authenticated account of a
Chinese convert to Christianity in all
the thirty-one years of our residence in
California. We do not believe there is
one. We do not believe there ever will
be one, and we do not think it at all
important that there should be. This
effort of these ladies is undoubtedly
sincere and honest, as they get no
money for marrying Chinese abandon
ed women to white idiots, and they
have no houses to rent to Chinese ten
ants; but they might just as we'll array
themselves in line upon the balcony of
the Cliff House and sing hymns to the
seals, as to endeavor to convert the
Chinese to Christianity.
