back. an have it all 10 do over again"
Amanda arose, and going softly up the
stairs came to Sammy's little room Bend
ing over the sleeping boy she scanned his
features well
1T is so like Sammie," she thought, $50
like he used TO be when came Of nights to
look az him when he slept"
Then noticing string about his neck she
pulled it gently and little locket came
from his bosom.
That IS it," she gasped, and, springing
the lid, she held it down close to the dim
light and read:
"God is my friend He will protect and
keep me-"
After awhile Amanda came back, and 60
ing up to Kezziah she laid her hand on his
shoulder
"He is Sans boy, Kezziah," she said. 'I
know It by this" and she held out the
loOnet
Kezziah raised his head from his hands,
and for moment gGzed at his wife in
silence
He is Sans boy" Amanda repeated.
'Sam's boy,' Kezziah said; ''our Sam 5 boy,
an left without friends or home. I've been
brute, Mandy, not to keer. But it shall
be different now, and I'll make up TO the
boy what l ought to have done for Sammy"
From this day Kezziah was changed
man, and people often wondered at it.
Though he could not atone to poor Sammy
for his cruelty and neglect, and though his
cruel treatment of his boy lived in his mem
DRY and haunted him through his few re-
naming years, his sorrow was sweetened
with the knowledge Of the good he was do
ing to Sans boy.
Il missed my chance to lead happy
life" Kezziah sometimes SAID, ''by refusing
kindness to them as needed 1t, but [ am
thankful that come to see myself Alright
before 1t was too late 10 change my course
and try to do something to amend my wrong
ways. It's all owing to the little boy. an
thank God for sending him to US"
Kezziah was never more the cross, harsh
old man the children feared, but, instead,
he was their friend, and often they came to
his store to talk with him, or rambled with
him in search Of flowers.

tanning the freshness and innocence Of child
hood, while the large, brown eyes thai
looked so steadily into his own recalled
memories of the almost forgotten past.
''Idon't keer if We do rub ZEN leetle, u
Kezziah said, and there was softness and
tenderness in his voice that sounded strange
to his own ears.
Down went the little kit On the hard pave
ment, and down went the little bootblack on
his knees. AS the little fellow rubbed and
worked patiently at the great rough boots,
Kezziah watched him with interest, and his
thoughts drifted back into the shadows OF
the past and owelt on scenes and incidents
Of the years long gone by. To his mind there
came picture, the face and form Of little
boy with laughing, dancing brown eyes and
rosy cheeks. A little head wFeathed with
sunny curls, and pair of lips wearing q
smile like a ray of light struggling from
Heaven. Then came the sound of a childish
voice In happy laughter, heard but dimly at
first, but growing stronger and more dis
tinct until he recognized IT, Then came an.
other picture-a young man with eyes clear,
frank, honest and afectionate, and in their
depths he saw reflected a soul of love and
gentleness. Then be saw a cloud steal over
the picture, and when it had passed he saw
the face of his boy, but oh so sadly altered.
The cheeks were thin and pinched, and the
eyes dark are sorrowful

INJURED.
The little bootblack looked up and saw
the old man draw his rough coat-sleeve
across his eyes. He put his box and brush
away and started to rise when the old man

"JOe," the boy replied

an expectant attitude.
That's all know"
A shade Of disappointment passed over the
aged face.
"Haye you no friends, 10 father or
mother!i
The boy shook his head.
Where do you 1--we, then!" the old man
went on.
Just anywere. Sometimes 1 go to the
homes an sometimes l sleep in boxes and

For minute they were both silent. Then
the boy said.

''Wait bit, ''Kezziah said. Wouldn't you

lively.
"Of course it Isl the old man replied.
"At least it's great deal nicer than this
sort of life. If you go and don't like it, I'll
fetch you back"
Joe assented after that, and a little later
he and Krzziah drove away toward the old
farm. They rode in silence, and as the

the narrow lanes, up and down the rugged
hills, Joe was busy seeing and enjoying the
great open country with its broad fields OF
growing crops. and the big blue grass past
ures, and meadows OF red clover al in
bloom. To his young mind a new world
was opened out-a grandly beautiful world,
and no doubt he sometimes felt that he
must spring out and scamper off over the
soft grass and down into the deep, shady
forest beyond, where the happy birds were
singing and the squirrels were basklng
The sinking sun was gIinting the eastern
