sAGAcITY OF RUSSELL SAGE.
His Reason for Refusing to Advance
Another Loan

His Reason for Refusing to Advance
Another Loan.
One day a young man of Russell
Sage's acquaintance-in fact, the
grandson of an old friend of other
days-approached him on the subject
Of loan of ten dollars for two weeks
and-got it. He promised faithfully
to return the money at stated hour
and the promise was as faithfully
kept. Mr.. Sage had very little to say
when he gave up the ten, and quite
as little when he got it back.
A week or ten days later the young
man came to see him again, and this
time asked him for a hundred dollars
making all sorts of representations OF
what he would do with it. Mr.. Sage
refused to ante. The young man was
surprised. not to say panied.
Why" he exclaimed, you know
I'll pay it all right. Didn't say I'd
have that ten for you on Monday, and
wasn't there to the minute with it,"
Mr.. Sage beamed softly on the
grandson of his old friend.
my boy" he said, with no trace
Of unkindness in his tone, you dis
appointed me once and l don't want
you to do it again"
Il beg your pardon, ! did not"
argued the youth. Il said ! would
pay you back, and did"
Eyes, yes, my boy" purred Mr..
Sage, you paid back the ten. and I
never expected you would. Now, il
I let you have hundred l should ex.
pect you to pay it back, and you
wouldn't. One disappointment at my
time of life is enough. my boy. Good
morning. Weekly.
