 And grandfather picked up the paper as Uncle Forth paused.
 VI don't know about that last item, ,'' he replied.
 ''No, but drunken Ben Poke did, said Aunt Sue, dropping her crochet work hastily. ''I know that Mrs Poke told me at the temperance meetings, last Win ter, that if she could only afford to keep hot coffee on hand she believed she could keep her husband from the saloon and conquer his taste for liquor. Yesterday l met her again and she stopped me, tears running down her cheeks. Q Miss Forth she said, T must tell you how Ben has stopped his drink and we're picking up now with his wages, and it's all owing to your Nan with her money she give me for coffee, and we both fought the liquor with it and I be- lieve Ben's saved That's where it went to-"
 Aunt Sue finished by clasping Nan in her arms.
 "Hum!" Grandfather Ferris finally managed to say, after blowing his nose, wiping his spectacles and clearing his throat. "A queer investment. Got any receipts for your loans?"
 70 grandpa, didn't lend it !" Nan ex- claimed.
 "Well, if that isn't lending, I haven't understood my Bible," he muttered. "Why didn't you tell where it went to at first?'
 'I didn't see where 1 could make any money with it, and it seemed wrong to let it lie in my purse; but didn't want any one talking of such things" she an swered with bright blush.
 "Well, who has made the most?' ask ed Grandfather Ferris. "Oscar has the most in trade, money and shrewdness ; Ned has the most useful and profitable knowledge with his press; but Nan has a mortgage on two business stands, has saved one life, perhaps, and a mans man. hood, and has contributed to a good many peoples happiness"
 ''Hurrah for Nanr' cried Ned. "Who would have thought her talent would have turned out SOP" he remarked the next day as they were critically examin- ing the lovely watch on it's satin bed.
 "Business, boys" said Grandfather Ferris, Sis good thing; but one must have care in all transactions for profit, because selfishness begets greed, and greed cunning, and cunning dishonesty in many cases. There is no investment that pays so well, after all, as lending to the Lord, and Nan has proven that, even with one talent, no one need be an ul- profitable servant"
