He was born poor, in a story

was a weaver. He came to this
country with the rest of his ia
theirs family when he was 10, and

him 20 cents a day
Faithful work as a bobbin boy

earned him almost dollar day.

In the realm of matters trans

There was no scholastic meta

all thoughtful persons are sure
sooner or later, to come.

just said that in asking for a
loan he had nothing that he
could offer as security, that is.
he owned nothing that he could
make over to the bank in case he
failed to return the loan. Sc
curity of the ordinary kind he did
not have, but he had something
that was just as satisfactory to
the banker, for he had a charac-
ter for honesty, faithfulness and
perseverance, and the banker
said to him: You shall have the
money, Andy for you are all

they have a perfectly fair show.
They get just what they deserve.
