old Earl, who had been dead 30 years
The painting was a handsome one, and
the old Earl a fne-lookIng man in his

dropped and he nodded, but still he seemed

Then it seemed to the boy that the

THE OLD EARL'S PORTRAIT.

Once upon n time there lived in beau-
tfu home in England the little nephow
of an aged Earl. Leslie was a handsome
lad, and the fact that he WAS an orphan
made him pitied and loved by every
tenant on his unclc's big estate.
One golden October afternoon he was
on his tiny pony pacing down the shaded
walks of the park He noticed the forester
who was raking tbg leaves looked at him
with tears shining Through mile.
why Hawkins said the child, jump
ing from the pony and embracing the man.
What is the trouble; what makes you
cry2"
Hawkins stroked the boys golden curls.
"Ohl little master" he sobbed, "the
old master is very sad for his brother,
your other uncle, claims this estate and our
kind earl will have to give up his home.
Leslie rode home slowly. How sad the
mellow sunlight looked now How he
would hate TO leave this beautiful park
and how bad il would be TO have his kind
old uucle turned away from his home
That night after tea Leslie sat in q big
leather chair by his unclc's side In the
