"why don't you raise chickens for the
market"' suggested Hiram Bassett, the
village storekeeper, to Ben Singer. Ben
was fourteen years old. His mother had
died short time before. His father was
a carpenter by trade, but had been Grip
pied by rheumatism so that he could not
work. Ben, who always looked on Mr..
Bassett as friend of undoubted fidelity
and great resources, had been telling the
storekeeper how much he wished he could
get some steady work. Mr.. Singers little
stock of money was exhausted; he had al
ready sold some of his tools to get the
food he and his son needed Ben realized
That the day was rapidly coming when
there would be no way of getting more
less he managed to do something of greater
profit than the odd jobs he picked up now
ana then from the surrounding farmers.
I'll do it," said Ben, in response to Mr..
Bassetts suggestion; turned about. trudged
home and all the way was planning how he
might begin.

Ben handed the money to the sheriff,
