DetleT tnau money.
There was once a poor man, a
linen-weaver, who sat every day,
from earliest dawn, in his work
shop, hard at work; and as he was
one who put his trust in God, to
pass away the time he would sing
many a hymn or innocent song, as
he felt inclined. And he had so
clear and strong a voice that his
neighbors required no alarm to
wake them in the morning.
But this greatly annoyed rich
merchant who dwelt near him; for
he could never sleep before mid
night, owing to his anxious
thoughts about his money, and
very early in the morning he was
awoke by this noisy, vexatious
sing-song of his neighbor, the
weaver.
He reflected how he could put
an end to this annoyance. He
could not forbid it: for singing,
like praying and working, is the
right of every man in his own
house; with which no one can in
terfere. He must use other means
then.
He sent for the workman, and
asked him at what value he est
mated his singing. The workman
replied that he thought it was GER
tainly worth a days wages, as it
made the days work itself so easy
to him.
The merchant inquired how
much that was. The man replied, /
and it certainly was not a large
sum that he named
Then the merchant said he
would pay him a months wages
in advance, not for the singing, in
deed, but that he should hence
forth sing no more, but keep a
strict silence. And he laid down
the money before him.
The weaver thought to himself
it could possibly be easily earned;
so he took the money and promis-
ed he would be as still as a mouse
in his workshop.
When he got home with the
money he counted it out full of
JOY; and they were all good new
coins-more money than he had
ever possessed at once in his life
before. In the evening before he
went to sleep, he gazed at his
treasure for nearly an hour; and at
night he put it under his pillow,
lest thief should steal any Of it.
At midnight he still had it in his
head, and thought what he should
do with it. And in the morning
when he arose it seemed to weigh
down all his limbs like Lead his
head was weary with lying awake
so anxiously, his hands were
heavy and lazy, and refused their
usual service.
All, he dared not sing.
Time passed away slowly and
tediously, so that he could scarcely
endure the day. Meanwhile he
had been thinking the matter over
and had come to conclusion, fol-
the man who stood at eight that
evening in the merchants Office
was the weaver.
"Sir, with your permission he
said, "here you have your money
back again; it is an evil spirit,
which does not allow me to sleep
quietly"
And before the merchant could
say a word in reply, the weaver
was already outside the door, and
singing with a clear, full voice,
"A fresh and merry heart
Is worth more than money or wealth.

he heard some one call him. 1t
was his Aunt Jane, who was stand

in her hand.

this letter in the box, Arthur,

''No, 1 don't want to" answered
Arthur, who did not like 10 be dis
turbed.
So Aunt Jane went across the
street herself, and mailed the let
ter.
Not long after this, Arthur's
mother asked him to take a spool
of silk to Aunt Jane who was up
stairs.
"No, 1 don't want TO-" answered
Arthur again.
His mother said nothing, but
when she went upstairs herself
with the silk she had little talk
with Aunt Jane about Arthur.
An hour later Arthur rau to

he cried.
''No, l don't want to," said Aunt
Jane, with out looking up from
her sewing.
Arthur seemed surprised for
moment; then hung his head, and
turned away.
When supper was over, Arthur
carried a book of fairy tales to his
mamma.
please read me a story, NAM
ma" he said.
NO, 1 don't want to- said his
mother, who was knitting.
Arthur's lips quiyered, and his
eyes were full of tears as he sat
down on a cushion in corner to
look at the pictures in the book.
But he forgot his trouble when
his papa came in.

him; please make me a whistle. " /

an was in his uncle's from

we e visiting in a country town.
Julia had come because she had
been pale and weak for some time,
and it was hoped change of ain
lst-ght do her good. There was
no particular reason why Van
should have been invited, except
that his uncle thought his sister
might like to have him with her.
He did not think about her this
morning until he heard her call
him from the porch. She stood
there leaning against a pillar, and
her eyes looking very dark and
tired.
Van she said, would you
please not beat that drum-at
least not so near the house"
"Why not, I'd like to know?7
asked the boy; and gave two strong
strokes to emphasize the question.
because my head really does
ache very badly, and the drum
makes it worse.

somewhere if you don't want to
hear. l guess 1 can do what II
like with my own drum"
Julia went into the house with
out another word, and Van beat
the fence very furiously for a few
minutes. Then all at once he felt |
tired, and dropped down on the
grass beside a rose-bush. He
threw out one arm as he went |
down, and it struck several petals
from the only blossom on the
bash.se
Something flew off with the
pqtalH, but not SO silently as they.
A honey bee rose into the air with
ca 8nery buzz, and came down
lqoment later upon the intruder's
sssy cheek.

5inning down his cheeks, burst

beer lying on the lounge. His
aunt put soda upon the sting, and
Julia made him lie down in her
place, while she sat beside him
and stroked hair. Presently he
felt little better, and began to
scold.
Il wish all the bees in the
world were killed. It's a shame
if one can't go outdoors without
stung.7
'The bees are not to blame"
said aunt Isable, They have
stings, and they have a right to
theln."
Van opened his eyes and pulled
q Sic his bandage, to look re-
proachfully at his aunt.
s"Oh! I'm very sorry you have
ben stung," said she; "but |
meant that you couldn't expect
else from bee. It
doesn't know any better. Of
course, if it had been boy, you
might blame it for doing any
thing which would certainly hurt
you"
Van was by no means dull: he
understood his lesson. To be
sure, he shut his eyes again, and
lay some time. without speaking.
But next morning his drum lay
silent in the house, because he re-
membered that Julia had asked
him some days before to go to the
creek with her, and it seemed
