There was quite stock of valentines
in the boxes ON the counter, and Sol
olnon Badgers grandson. 'Lonzo. was
waiting TO sell them The trade had
been quite brisk since morning. though
it was the day before Valentines day.
'Lonzo Badger wsffed for Grand
father Judd TO inspect the valentines,
and sucked a lemon drop the while.
'Lonzo was fifteen, very stout and con-
sidered not very bright However, he
could sell valentines, for the prices were
all marked on the backs, and his grand
father was rot AFRAID 10 trust him. Sol
omon Badgers eyes were poor, and his
granddaughter Sophia, 'Lonzo's sister,
though she WAS "caled bright enough"
was decidedly uncertain, and more
given TO thinking about her mittens
and her curls than good trade. So,
when Solomon Badger could press
'Lonzo into service with safety he was
glad TO do SO.
Presently Grandfather Judd got up
with an effort. and went over TO look
M the valentines. One Immediately
caught his eye. 1t twas much the largest

"How much is this one?" inquired

agant price. He made up his mind

scratch out the mark. But he could not
resist the temptation. !. was so decided
" the bandsomest valentine there.
He bought il and started out with IL,
!hen suddenly changed his mind. He
remembered that the post Office was
quarter of a mile further; that his
rheumatism was bad, and that il was a
day too early to post the valentine. He
remembered. also. that his son-in-Iaw
was going TO Westdale 10 trade COW
the next day. and that il would perhaps
not be convenient TO get TO the post
Office before Valentines day. So he
gave 'Lonzo Badger five cents; told him
a. buy oDe-cent stamp for the valcn-
tine and put II IN the Office the next
day, and he might Keep the remaining
four cents for himself. Guess he's
smart enough for that" said the
old man to himself, as he toiled home.
lie never reflected that the envelope
was not directed, and that he had not
told 'Lonzo for whom II was intended.
AS for Ionzo, there was a certain
kind OF red and white peppermint con-
fection which he very much favored,
called kiss. Five cents would just
purchase one. His appetite for sweets
was abnormal. and his conscience some
what sluggish, possibly as result.
He put Grandfather Judd's five cents
N his pocket. and as soon as his grand
mother finished supper and came in
10 tend store, he slipped out. raced down
the road TO the shop where his favorite
sweetmeat was on sale, and bought
one. AS for the valentine. he had taken
that out from the envelope, and placed
II back in stock.
