"That l can't let him co."

Grubbs did not care to be known. In
some sort of a deal with an alderman he
had afforded scandal for the newspa-
pers, and he was still the subject OF an
occasional fling from the men who wrote
short paragraphs. His kindness, how
ever, was such as to awaken gratitude in
the heart Of the mother. He would bring
articles of diet and leave them without
word. Once he gave the child a piece of
yellow money.
"You must give it back" said the
woman. ~,. .. ~
Madam" replied Grubbs, would you
deny an old man all pleasure? He must
keep the money"
The boy continued to improve, and it
was not long before he could run about
the house, but Grubbs came every day,
waving at him of morning and holding
him upon his knee in the afternoon.
"ldislike so much to call you Mr.. Dog"
said the woman. Wont you select some
other name?"
"No!" the boy cried. HE is my good
dog" And so it went from day to day.
One afternoon as Grubbs was about to
take his leave, he looked at the boy and
said:
MADAM, I don't see how l can get
along without adopting him."
"But you could not adopt him, MI.

''Why, yes can. You are young
