He Was a Very Humane Boy and He
Was Enjoying HIS Well
Earned Reward.

" A portly gentleman sat on the porch
and smiled, while a small boy, also
smiling, painted the front fence.
Look at that boy" the portly man
remarked to a visitor; che thinks he is
having good time. A small boy is
surely the drollest creature oil earth.
When / was II youngster 1 remember
that there were certain kinds of work
l considered play, and one of them was
painting. Twas always crazy to paint.
Many times 1 have taken bucket Of
muddy water and an old paint brush,
and have spent whole half day put

painting the fence; he has always been
crazy TO paint. Ee is enjoying Himself
now--you can see he is; and re will
paint that whole fence, too, just ms
well as he knows how. don't care if it
is q triile sroeared; he's getting joy,
solid joy. thicker thar the paint on
his hands and clothes.
There's n mean size to 1t, too; he
wanted 10 paint the fence and wanted
the weeds Pulled out of tho yard. So.
like an erhanded rascal, bar
gained with him; ] told him that if he
would pull all the weeds out would
LET him paint the fence. lie went
through the other job like soldier
he hates 10 pull weeds--all boys do
and now he thinks Ef il getting his re-.
ward. 1t is downright shame TO fool
him that way--don't you think SOP"

joy, went on. plastering paint on the
