talked it all over with him, and pro-
posed that they should sign it to-
gether-a contract that neither would
break. Dick did not know then, nor
until years after, that his father was
taking too much wine. They signed
the pledge-Richard Howell, senior,
and Richard Howell, junior. And
then Dicks father told him to kneel
by his knee, and laying his hand on
the boys head, he prayed God to help
them both to keep the promise they
had made.
"You have signed your name
great many times, my boy, but never
to a paper that meant SO much as
this.
90! 1 don't ever want to drink,
father. 1t is easy to promise, and /
shall never go back on my word"
said Dick gayly.
Years went by. Dick grew up, and
many and many time he was tempt
ed to take glass of rum or beer. He
never yielded, for he had signed his
name and was on his honor. A few
more years, and he had seen the curse
of drunkenness, and was SO glad of
that boyish pledge-so glad of a faith
er who made him feel the sacredness
of promise. [Woman's Standard.

Dicks Signature.

Little Dick Howell was boy who
often surprised people. They called
him ''Lazy Dick" because he loved
to get into sunny corners and think,
and he was not always for work such
as little fellows can do. But one day
he said, "Pa, want a lot of money"
eyes, Dick, l have known other
folks who felt so. Go to work and
earn it. :"
"HowY' asked Dick, who was in
earnest, for he longed for little cart.
"O weed the garden" said Mr..
Howell, growing absent-minded as he
often became. He remembered sud-
denly business letter he must write,
and so when Dick said, "Will you
give me penny for every big weed?"
his father said, eyes"
Well, that night Dick amazed his
father by presenting him one hundred
big weeds, and eagerly claiming pay
ment. Mr.. Howell never broke his
word to a child; he said he did not
think what he was promising; be-
cause there were too many weeds in
the garden for such bargain; but
he paid the money down, and Dick
had the prettiest cart in town. Not
long after, his father said, "Dick, you
and | ought to have had written
contract about those weeds. If |
had, | should not have agreed to such
terms as | made. A man thinks be-
fore he signs his name. If / had
been dishonorable too | could have
said never agreed to pay you a
penny weed, and you could not have
proved that | did. You must learn
to write your name before | do any
more business by contract with you.
Then we'll each sign our names"
And so Dicks father went on to tell
him that solemn promises not to be
broken were made in writing, and
men who broke such promises were
men whom nobody could trust.
Dick hated to read. and he could
not write a letter, but after that he
used to climb up on the wood-shed
roof with his dear little sister Nelly.
She did her best to teach him, and
the first word he ever wrote was Dick,
the next was Howell. Such funny
business contracts as Dick made that
year with his father, and such a pile
of pennies as he earned First, two
pence for every week that he never
forgot to shut door, and never
slammed it; penny for being help
full, and starting at once when asked
to do anything; picking over barrel
of apples, and so on, up TO half
dollar in three months. Every time
he signed a written contract to do
what he agreed, or try his very best
to do it, how proudly he used to
sign "Dick" with a big inky flourish
When Dick was twelve years old he
was asked to sign temperance
pledge. He took it to his father, who

WRONGFUL ASSERTION.

SAYS the New York Herald: THE
people declared in November for high
tariff" 1t is surprising that such a
weIl-intormed paper as the Herald
should make such q statement. The
people declare themselves through the
ballot-boxes, and last November, instead
of declaring for high tariff, they said
by one hundred thousand majority,
that they were In favor of a reduced
tarif-a tariff for revenue only. More
than that, if We accept the will of the
white voters of the country as express
ing the opinion of the people on this
Question-as we certainly should do,
NOS one negro in twenty knowing any
thing OF the matter the majority
against a high tariff was over
million. It is q reflection on the in
telligence of the white people OF
the country 10 say they are in
favor of a tax system which increases
the cost of living more than fifty per
cent. in order that q few manufacture
ers may put millions of the poor peo-
pies money into their pockets every
year. A fair and full canvass of tie
white citizens of this country to-day
would show fully one million more
Americansover twenty-one years of age
whofavored low tariff than those who
were in favor of 9 high one. ~
What the people really decided last
November was that they would have
abolished the protective tariff il our
electoral system had not been so unre-
publican that it did not permit the
will of the majority to prevail.
