ser, you have dug up something en-
tirely new"
"Thank you, dear-thank you. That
was my object-to get something en-

"Little George was to be a great
man, but his father couldn't see any
signs of 1t, nor did his mother expect
anything. He ate his pudding and
milk for supper just like other boys,
and he always knelt down by his bed
side and prayed before he worked his
way between the sheets. Nothing oc-
Cured to show that greatness was
sleeping in his character until he was
sixteen yearssold. Then bear killed
one of his fathers sheep, and he was
bemoaning the loss of the old woody.
when the son spoke up and said:
""Father, will kill that bear for
you. He has done very wicked thing
and should be punished for it."
""But, you are only boy" said
the father.
""I know 1t, papa, but feel a
greatness within. Let me take your
old shotgun and I will load it with
handful of peach stones and bring
you back the scalp of that bear, or
will perish in attempting to do SO -
"'And the father consented, and lit
tie George took the old musket out
and became great in an hour. He saw
the bear and discharged d load of
peach stones at him, and he not only
ended the life of Bruin, but killed
He brought all the scalps to his fa-
ther, and the overjoyed parent took
him into the house and said:
""I surely have great son in this,
my little George. Keep on, my son,
and you will be known of all the
world."'
"Now, Mrs. Bowser," said Mr.. Bow
ser, as he Strengthened up. "This is
only small part of the essay, but
you can judge by this what the whole
Is. Is it not an interesting paper?"
"It seems-seems to be-" she re.
piled. "But would you call it his
tory?"
at is the straightest kind of his
tory. But are you satisfied with it?''
yves, But, of course"
"Of course what!" demanded Mr..
Bowser. 81 might have known you
would find some fault about 1t. What
is wrong2"
"N-nothing," she replied. "It is in
some respects the greatest essay on
Washington / ever heard"
Mr.. Bowser went to the telephone
and called up Mr.. Philbrick and told
him to come to the office the next
morning and get his essay. Mr.. Phil
brick came, but he did not take the
essay away with him. Instead of that,
he hurt Mr.. Bowser's feelings by call
ing him an old jackass, or some such

Mrs. Bowser has not got that fifty
dollars yet, and she has no hopes that
