beneath my roof with reproaches, and
now in my old age I am childless and
desolate"
The mother held her peace, but
every night at the appointed hour she
kne1t down and prayed for her wan
dering boy.
Just about that time the whole coun-
try was ringing with the renown of
young reformer-a man of talent and
genius, who was spending the best
days Of his manhood for the good Of
his fellow men, His eloquence, it was
said, was irresistible and thousands of
erring sinners were focking after him,
as they followed the Master of old.
News came at last that this wonder
full man would deliver lecture in the
village. Preparations were made, and
expectation was on tiptoe. On the
appointed night Mrs. Arnold went with
the rest
The speaker took the stand, and an
nounced the subject of his discourse.
It was: "For Mothers Sake
The poor mother, her heart yearning
for her own absent son, looked on and
listened, blinded by swift-howing tears.
She could scarcely see the tall form of
the handsome speaker, but his words
thrilled her heart through and through
The audience sat spellbound, breath
less, until the lecturer drew near the
close of his remarks.
"For mothers sa11e,'' he said. "That
one little sentence has made me what
I am. Who, in this crowded room rec
ognizes me? Five years ago, on just
such night as this, I was prisoner

and hears my voice tonight"
ooh, thank God! Oh, my boy! my

Tn another minute he had her in his
strong arms, her gray head pi1lowed
on his breast. She looked up at him
with yearning, wondering eyes.
ooh, no. do not mistake-you are
my son! Oh. Dick!''
He held her closely, tears streaming
like rain over his bearded face.

"Why, Dick, old fellow, haven't seen
you for an age! We'll met, pom my
soul! Here, landlord, brandy and self
ger for four, and be spry at it."
The brandy and settler appeared and
vanished Oysters and crackers fol-
| lowed and then came more grog tc
wash it all down.
By sunset poor Dicks weak head
was in a whirl When darkness fell
his errand was still neglected and he
sat in the little bar parlor, looking on
while his boon companions played
cards, hot bloom in his cheeks, an
insane glitter in his handsome eyes.
"Come up, Dick and try your luck!
Don't care if I do said Dick, and
at it he went
His own purse was soon emptled,
and then he never could clearly recall
how it all happened, but insane from
drink and determined to retrieve his
losses, he ventured to open the sealed
envelope and to borrow a stake from
the funds intrusted to- him by his en-
p1oyer.
"I'l1 soon double it, he thought,
sand then Til replace the amount
But he lost instead of doubling, and
then swallowed more brandy in his ex-
element and at the invitation of his
good friends.
The end was that they made a night
of it, and when the morning dawned,
poor Dick found himself alone. for
saken by his friends, and the sealed
envelope and its contents gone.
| The shock sobered him. He got up,
and with his head beating like trip
hammer, walked back to his native
village, and seekin his employer, con-
fessed all that had happened Mr.
| Robinson was greatly provoked and
at once put the matter into the hands
of the law and Dick Arnold was arrest
ed and sent to prison.
When the news came to his fathers
ears he refused to give his son either
aid or countenance
''I'm done with him. Let them send
him to the State prison; he deserves
it."
| But the mother, her faithful heart
going out in yearning pity for her
erring boy, stood and pondered how
she might save him.
In little while she turned, and en-
tering the pleasant cottage, went slow
! 1y up stairs and into her chamber,
where her daughter Rose sat sewing
on her bridal robes.
Sitting down beside her, she told
her the story Of her brothers trouble
Rose understood her mothers mean
ing even before She could put it into
words. There was little box on the
table, which contained her marriage
dowry. Little by little the father and
mother had boarded it in their only
daughters name, that she might not
be dowerless on her wedding day.
Pretty Rose took the box and put
it in her mothers hands.
"Take it. mother" she said, and
do with II as Won think hest"

Mrs. Arnold stood in the cottage
doorway, the sweet bloom and verdure
of springtime all about her, and lis
tened to her husbands angry words.

She could see the village spires from

The trouble had come about in this
way:
Dick Arnold was confidential clerk
in the hardware house of Robinson &

young fellow was Dick, bright, intelli
gent and as shrewd and clever il
