STORY OF A GOOD BOY.
He Tried the Honest Policy, but
Found There Was Moth
ing in 1t.

A newsboy picked up a $40 bill in
front of one of the big hotels yester-
day. Another young artist of the
brush that is black, but artistic, saw
the pick up and guessed it was money.
He made loud plea for a division.
'Halves or I'll squeal," he yelled.
While Red was hesitating an elderly
benevolent-looking man stepped out
of the hotel and gazed at the pavement
in an inquiring manner, relates the
Kansas City Journal
Red saw the man and guessed that it
was his 7coney. He impulsively ran to
him and quired:
I'D you lose somethin', mister?"
"Why, yes, little man, l just dropped
bill. Did you see it ?" he replied with
winning smile.
This it?" said the boy, extending a
grlmy paw in which was gripped the
bill.
The other boy stood by, picture Of
alarmed astonishment.
The old man took the bill and said:
THAT is it, little man [ am glad to
have it, but it affords me greater pleas
ure to know that there is such an hon
est, bright boy in the Iowly occupation
which is your start i'll life. l predict
that you will be a great man some day.
Honesty is the greatest Of virtues.
Thank you, my good boy.p
Red stood very still until the old man
had entered the hotel. Then he said
things. The things he said showed the
perfection Of his training in the slums.
lhey were emphatic, but unprintable,
and the end eff the long sentence was,
an | fought I'd get half of de X, and
make reppytashun for bein' honest,
and beat Swipsy out O. de cut"
And Swipsy looked at him in silent
scorn several seconds before he stalked
away, leaving the good boy to mediate
and swear.

the United States than anywhere else in the world.
The great bracksh marshes Of the Atlantic

made parts of this country ideal breeding grounds
for the mosquito but there are no conditions under
under which this pest of modern life cannot be ex-
