A Good Investment.

So much has been said recently about
rich men giving to poor boys that it is
pleasing and novel to tell this true tale
of poor boy showing charity to a rich
man. One night, not long ago, General
Wager Swayne was going up town on
Fourth avenue car. He tucked his
crutches under his arm to investigate
his pockets, and found that he had no
money. Z" | suppose shall have to get
off" he said to the conductor. The
conductor said he supposed he would.
Then up spoke voice from the bottom
OF the car. 1t belonged to very small
one-legged newsboy, who had to de-
pend on clutches as General Swayne
did. "There's a pair of u.s. said the
small boy, kindly. "I'll lend you a
nickel to pay for your ride" This
offer touched the generals heart, for
it was plain that a desire to spare
his pride had led the newsboy to
call it loan. He said to himself
that some time he would pay the five
cents back with interest. He asked the
boys address. The latter gave it, but
told him it didn't matter. When Mrs.
Swayne, at her husbands request, drove
to the address of the newsboy who had
pitied her husband, she found that he
was dead. The debt could not be paid
to him, but he had left widowed
mother and some little brothers and
sisters, just exactly as though he had
lived in book. Those bereaved ones
have since had occasion repeatedly to
congratulate themselves on the five
cent investment made by their dead
relative. 1t is very probable that this
Christmas found them still drawing big
interest on that small sum.-New York
