T0ney's Lesson.

"ONEY KASTIN was not bad
young man, but he was given
to fun, enjoyed good time,
and while not usually vulgar
or low in his conversation. had
a keen sense Of the ludicrous and could
not always resist the temptation to
make an apt rejoinder even when it
involved some coarsens SIS.
A party of us were camping aout at
Spirit Lake-mostly young fellows, but
two were midde-aged men. We had
good time and there was only one thing
to regret, and that Toney regretted all
his life. We sat around the fire the
first evening telling stories, and a story
which one of the older men told sug-
gested an obscene comment which
Toney uttered before he thought twice.
81 could have bitten my tongue off the
next instant he said later. The older
man simply looked straight at him for
moment across the fire, and Toney
knew that the man judged him by that
remark. However, Toney knew that
he did not deserve the opinion which in
that instant was formed of him, but he
also knew that he had given the gen.
tleman just cause to estimate him as he
did. That one careless word did not
fairly represent him, but he could not
deny that it was his own.
All that night Toney lay looking up
at the stars and thinking over what he
had said. He could almost have counted
on his fingers all the other sentences of
like character that he had ever spoken,
for he was not habitually vulgar, but
for that one word, and all like words
and thoughts, he despised himself. He
determined to be so careful during the
remainder of the week as to redeem
himself in the sight of that man; the
others knew him better. A telegram
called him back to the city next morn
ing and he seldom saw the man after
that. He always treated him civilly
when they met, but he never saw him
without feeling that he still measured
him by that one word. He had op-
portunities to show him that he was
not wholly bad, but they were too few
to give a comprehensive view of his
character, or really to influence his
opinion of him.
In strange way, after year had
passed, his name was mentioned for a
position which was desirable, and which
he seemed likely to secure, but this
man was one of three to decide the
matter. Without positively knowing
how it came about he could never
doubt that quiet intimation that he
considered him unfit was what defeat
ed him. Later he found a situation
which, altho good one, was in very
different line of work from whatehe
had chosen, and he has never doubted
that his whole life was changed by that
idle word. Yes, he did learn his les
son. His habit, now almost lifelong,
has made impurity, even in its milder
forms, repulsive. The memory of that
incident has stopped many hasty ut
terance, and in the years that followed
it the warning of the Divine minister
has added sense of responsibility to
the sense of shame. STRABo.
