 Jack wondered if God knew. He was such little bit of a boy and so shabby that perhaps God did not care. "Mebbe he does, though, only it's Christmas time and he's so busy with other folks that he's clean forgotten mother and me this trip."
 Jack hugged his bundle of papers clos CT under his threadbare jacket and turn ed away from the beautiful things in the store window, which had reused in his mind the question of Gods knowledge of them, he and his mother, or of their poverty. His shrill, beyish voice was almost lost in the din of the busy thorouhhfare, but he piped bravely and cheerily in spite of the biting wind and bitter cold:
 Here's your morning paper. Full ac- count of the big. bank robbery.'.
 Many hurried business man stopped to speak kindly word to the bright faced boy as he dropped the pennies into the cold, grimy hand. Now, Jacks hands were.-well, not exactly dirty, but you know how it is in winter when a fellow hasn't any gloves and his hands get all chapped, then the dirt seems to stick in the wrinkles at the knuckles and somehow they always look smudgy. Every fellow hates to hold out dirty hand to lady when she buys a paper, but then, most women know how it Is with boys. Some of them don't though, and 1t makes you mad when they won't quite touch your fingers when you hand back change. And if they just wouldn't look down at your feet and make you hurry tu shuttle them behind you in or der to hide their patchee, for the shoes have been cobbled so often by old Baker that he says he don't know as there is anything left of the original pair.
 But in spite of his poverty Jack was q neat looking boy with an attractive, rosy face, and his hair was always nice ly bruahed, notwithstanding it's provok ing curliness. His bright laugh and obliging ways won for him the sobriquet of sCheery Jackn among his friends, the #neWshcys, who in spite of their peculiar code of etiquet never ssrushed" nor .sun~ derstood' him.
