the tree" said his mother.
II don't believe they are good"
replied the little boy.
"Fie for shamel" cried his
mother, and she went ON with
her work.
just then an old blind man
carrying a guitar came down the
street. He stopped just under the
window by which Yen was seat
ed, and leaning against the wall
began drumming away on his
instrument. The tunes he played
were very lively and merry. Yen
looked down. upon him and won
dered why. The blind man was
such a very old man, and not only
blind but lame, and so thin that
Yen felt quite sure that he never
got more than half bowl of rice
for his dinner. How was 1t then
that he played such merry tunes?
So merry, indeed, that listening
to them, Yen quite forgot to be
sour and sad.
After a while the little boy
smiled. Then he laughed. The
old man lifted his head. He
could not see with his sightless
eyes, but he knew that there
was a little boy near to him
whom he was making happy.
Honorable great grandfather
of all the world" said Yen, will
you please tell me why you who
are i'll, lame and blind, make
such merry music that everybody
who hears becomes merry also?"
The old man smiled around him
and answered.: ''Why, I think
little jewel eyes, that the Joyful
music comes just because I am
old, lame and blind"
Yen looked down at his little
finger.
''Do you hear whit says the
honorable great, grandfather of
the worid?" he asked.
The little finger Strengthened
itself out. 1t no longer felt sore,
and Yen was no longer sour and
sad.
