His aunt sat down on the bed by
his side. She was not versed in the
ways Of childhood, and could not know
that the little boy wanted to pillow
his head on Aunt Cindy's soft ana am
pie bosom, that he was homesick for
his black friends. the only companions
he had ever known.
''Pll tell you a Bible story" she
temporized. You must not be a baby.
You are not afraid, are you, William?

Miss Minerva remained silent. She
felt unable to cope with the situation

shrewdly, said:

argued.
"Oh. yes" said his relative; you
must battle every day"
Me an Wilkes Booth Lincoln amt
never wash on a Wednesday sence
we's born" he protested indignantly.
Billy's idea OF bath was taken
from the severe weekly scrubbinz
which Aunt Cindy gave him with a
hard washrag, and he felt that he'd
rather die at once than have to battle
every day.
He followed his aunt dolefully to
the bathroom at the end of the long
back porch Of the old-fashioned, one
story house; but once In the big
white tub he was delighted.
In fact, he stayed in 1t SO long
Miss Minerva had to knock on the
door and tell him to hurry up and
get ready for breakfast.

and paralyzed silence. She decided to
put the child 20 bed at once that she
might collect her thoughts, and lay
some plans for the rearing Of this sad
~ neglected, little orphaned nephew.

Miss Minerals bed time was half
after nine o'clock, summer or winter.
She had hardly varied a second In the
years that had elapsed since the run
away marriage OF her only relative,
the young sister whose child had now
come to live with her. But on the
night of Billy's arrival the stern, mar.
row woman sat for hours in her rock
ing chair. her mind busy with thoughts
of that pretty young sister. dead since
the boys birth.
And now the wild, reckless, dissi-
pated brother-in-law was dead, too,
and the child had been sent to her;
to the aunt who did not want him,
who did not care for children, who
had never forgiven her sister her I'M
fortunate marriage. ''If he had only
been girl" she sighed. What she
believed to be a happy thought en-
tered her brain.
81 shall rear him." she promised
herself, "just as if he were q little
girl; then he will be both a pleasure
and a comfort to me, and a compan-

Miss Minerva was strictly method

so many hours for this, so many for
that William, she now resolved, for
the first time becoming really inter-
ested in him, should grow up to be e
model young man, splendid and
wonderful piece of mechanism, a fine,
practical, machine-like Individual,
moral, upright, religious. She was
glad that he was young; she would
begin his training on the morrow. She
would teach him to sew, to sweep, to
churn, to cook, and when he was old
er he should be educated for the min
istry.
YES" said Miss Minerva; 81 shall
be very strict with him Just at FIRST,
and punish him for the slightest dis
obedience or misdemeanor, and he
will soon learn that my authority is

announcement.

The little boy flooded his plate with
strip.
'These-here 1asses sho' is" he be

he must be more particular IN his
speech, he stammered out:
"These-here sho' is-am-are a nice

She did not again correct him.

thought. "and go very slowly. ! must
not expect too much of him at first"
After breakfast Miss Minerva, who
would not keep a servant, preferring
to do her own work, tied a big cook
apron around the little boys neck, and
told him to churn while she washed
the dishes. This arrangement did not
suit Billy.

The Rabbits Left Hind Foot.

A few minutes later, as Miss Mi
nerva sat rocking and thinking, the
door opened and lean. graceful, little
figure, clad in a skinny, gray union
suit, came into the room.
Amt a-goin' to say no prayers? ?"
demanded a sweet, childish voice
AUNT Cindy hear me an Wilkes
Booth Lincoln say us prayers ev'y
night sence we's born"
why, OF course you must say your
prayers" said his aunt, blushing at
having to be reminded of her duty by
this young heather; "kneel down here
by me-"
Billy looked at his aunt's bony
frame and thought Of Aunt enjoys
soft, fat, ample lap. A wistful look
crossed his childish face as he
dropped down in front of her and laid
his head against her knee, then the
bright, beautiful little face took on an
angelic expression as he closed his
eyes and softly chanted:
Now lays me down to sleep,
I prays the Lord my soul to keep,
II l should die befo' wake,
l prays the Lord my soul to take.

What is that you have tied around
your neck, William" she asked, as
the little boy rose to his feet.
That's my rabbit foot; you won't
never have no 'sease t all an nobody
can't never conjure you If you wears

lef' him foot; it was ketched by red
