Tom, the BOOtblack.

ONE day, as sat at my office-desk
writing busily, heard a knock at the
door. Come in" said l.
The door opened, and there stood 4
small boy, very ragged and rather dirty.
"What do you want?n asked, sharply;
for l was annoyed at the interruption.
"Please, SIR said the boy, will you
set me up?"
1t was such a queer request that 1
laughed outright. "Set you up?" said
l. "YOu are not bowling-pin, are
youP What in the world do you mean?'
"Please, sir, want to be set up in
business
"Oh! you want me to give you some
money"
"No, sir, 1 only want to borrow"
"And how much do you want?"
"OnlY twenty cents, sir"
"What kind of business will that set
you up in?"
"The newspaper business, sir.
want to buy papers"
And you promise to pay the money
back?n
"Yes, SIR"
There was something about the boy
that pleased me. l handed him two
dimes, and he went away. A friend
who happened in, Just as was closing
the transaction, expressed the opinion
that had been imposed upon. You
will never see that little rogue again."
said he.
Day after day passed, and began to
think that my friend was right. The
boy had not come back. But, Just as
had about given him up, he appeared,
and repaid the money honestly. was
so pleased that l made him a present
of the amount, and added a trihe to it.
Two years or more afterwards, I
stopped one day at a street-corner to
have nv shoes cleaned. As placed nv
foot on the block, the bootblack looked
up in my face, and said, - should like
to shine your shoes for nothing, SIR"

Don't you remember, sir, how you
