A FRIEND IN NEED.

Joe Jefferson's Story Of the Man Who

The late Joe Jefferson told this story
of his childhood days:
"When my parents were travelling in
the west we had hard time to get
along, meeting with bad luck in town
after town. Finally we came to lit
tie village in Illinois and prepared to
give the play. However, the people Of
this town had recently turned against
the theater. and the license was far
beyond what we could pay We were
almost in despair, for our situation
was desperate. not enough money to
give our play in the town where we
were and not enough to get to the next
town.
"Finally my father found young
lawyer who listened to his story with
sympathy and promised to help us.
He succeeded in getting us a permit to
play free Of cost. We made good
money that night, which carried us on
to the next town in comfort

which is now the good sized city OF
Springfield. and visited the cemetery

STORY OF A FRONT TOOTH.
A Small Fortune That Was Restored to
Its Rightful Owners.

Its Rightful Owners.
One winter morning little boy of
eight or ten years ran into the office of
the United Charities in New York city
crying bitterly. Between his sobs he
gasped out. Uncle has stolen mothers
front tooth; please get it back for u.s."
His mother. then lying dead at home,
was an actress. In her youth she had
had a large diamond inserted in her
front tooth, and the advertisement had
proved profitable.
AS the years passed misfortune over
took her; she was deserted by her hus-
band; the family larder was often
empty and the children hungry. Reso-
lutely she refused to part with the dia-
mond, always telling the children that
after her death the money it brought
would support them for some time.
When the little mother became Ill
with tuberculosis the children hushed
her fears about their future with reas-
surances of the value Of the jewel But
before the funeral wicked uncle came
in the night and pulled out the tooth.
An officer was sent at once to the
uncle with threats Of arrest II restitu-
tion was not made at once. The mis-
sion was successful, the tooth restored,
the diamond taken out. sold and the
proceeds used for the children.-Con-
densed From Survey.
