Business was dull. He had set his
desire upon horse that cost 81 900,
and he had only $500 with which to
buy it. There were other things, to
be sure, that might be bought with
$500, but he did not want. those; so he
was sorrowful, and thought the world
bad place.
As he walked he saw child run
ming toward him. 1t was strange
child but when he looked at it its
face ightencd like sunshine and broke
into smiles. The child held ont its
closed hand.
Guess what have = it cried glee-
fully
"Somcthing fine, am sure, said
the man pleasantly.
The child nodded and drew nearer,
then opened its hand.
Look t. it said and the street
rang with its happy laughter.
The man looked, and in the child $
hand lay penny.
"Hurrah = said the child.
"Hurrah = said the man.
Then they parted, and the child
went and bought stick Of candy and
saw all the world red and white in
stripes.
The man went and put his $500 in
