MASTER OF HIMSELF.
The Test Was a Unique One. but the
Boy Stood 1t.

u
Boy Stood 1t.
That was unique way in which Mr..
Smith. a merchant Of an eastern city
In want of boy, is said to have tested
the young applicants who came to him.
He put sign in his window: Wanted,
Boy; Wages 81; Sc to the Right One"
AS each applicant appeared the mer-
chant asked, "Can you read?" Then
be took the boy into a quiet room, gave
him an open book and bade him read
without a break until told to stop.
When the reading had been going on
for a few minutes, Mr. Smith dropp~ d
book to the floor and then rose and
moved certain articles about the room.
This was sufficient to piGue the curioss-
ty Of some of the candidates. They
looked up. lost their place on thN page,
blundered, and the merchant said:
"You may stop. shall not need you
at present. l want boy who Is mas
ter of himself"
If the reader was undisturbed by Mr..
Smiths movements, a lot of roguish
puppies were tumbled out Of basket
and encouraged to frolic about the
floor. This proved tSo much for most
of the boys. They looked. hesitated
and were dismissed.
Boy after boy underwent the same
treatment until over 80 had been tried
and had failed to control their curiosi-
ty. AT length. one morning. boy read
steadily on without manifesting any
desire to look at the puppies.
"Stop! said the merchant finally.
did you see those puppies?"
NO sir" replied the boy. Il could
not see them and read too"
You knew they were there"
"Yes. SIR.
"Are you fond Of dogs"
"Yes, sir"
"All right. think you will suit me. .

you will. you shall have Sc. perhaps
