full OF pathos and of suggestion: A
family man, says Home and Farm, dis
covered, once upon a time, that he
was being robbed of small sums of
money. At1ength, one night, a slight
noise in the room awakened him. He
opened his eyes quickly, to see a small
figure creep past the bed to his pocket
book, abstract bill, and steal silently
away. he recognized his own SON. a
little boy. The next day the father
called the child to him. ST have been

the pilferings ceased. The boy be-
came an honorable and honest man.
