A miser having lost $500 promised
$50 reward to anyone who should bring
it to HIM. A poor man found and re-
stored 1t to the miser, and demanded
the reward; but the old man, in order
to battle him, alleged there were $3.50
IN the bag when he lost it.
The poor man, however, was advised
to sue for the money; and when the
cause came on to be tried it appeared
that the seal had not been broken, nor
the bag ripped, and the judge said tc
the defendants counsel:
NThe bag you lost had $3.50 in it,

tender persuasive voice of The Angel,
and led by Lucky Dan. one by one
went forward and professed the deepest
penitence for their past misdeeds And
at the end of six months labor Mr..
Warren was able to report in all Mexico
there was not more flourishing mis-
sion than was his.
One Sunday morning the now quiet
and orderly camp was thrown into a
state of mild excitement by the arrival
of u stranger whose clothes were of the
regulation clericle pattern; he was met
at the stage by Mr.. Warren, who well
coined him with every evidence of de-
light, and then led him away to his
place of residence. Later on in the
day when the boys gathered in the
church, it was to find the stranger seated
beside Mr.. Warren, and many were their
conjectures concerning his presence
there. They were not kept long in
doubt. Mr.. Warren presently rose. his
face flushing hotly, and informed his
congregation that little surprise WAS
in store for them! Since his coming to
the camp, he went on, he had discov-
cred that The Angel was the noblest
woman in the world, and having
promptly fallen in love with her, had
won her promise to marry him aud they
were now about to be joined in holy
wedlock. Immediately afterward, he
and his bride would take the stage for
the north, and the stranger, whom he
introduced as the Reverend William
Cutter, would continue the missionary
work in hie stead.
The boys were petrifed with aston
ishment, and but few of them heard a
word OF the farewell sermon that fol
lowed; and the marriage, which came
Immediately afterward, was performed
in silence that was deathlike. At its
end they recovered use Of their muscles
sufficiently to troop forward with list
less, shntfling steps and silently hold
for moment the hands of bride and
groom; and then they filed solemnly
out of the church.
The following Sunday the Reverend
William Cutter waited in vain for the
gathering of his flock; not man came
nor ever afterward did one of them
darken the door of Che church; and at
the end of two weeks lonely soJuorn
in the place, Mr.. Gutter silently folded
his tents and took his departure. He
was man of much worldly wisdom.
