There s no competition. and nothing like our in- vention made. Parties having from 8200 to 31.- 000to invest, can obtain a General Agency for ten counties or a State. An one can make an investment of from 25 to $1. without the least risk of loss. as our C reulars will show that those investing 825 can after a thirty da s` trial return the goods unsold to us and get the r money back. if they do not clear at least $100. They show that a General agent who will vake ten counties and invest 3216. can after a trial of 90 days re- turn all goods unsold to us, and have money re- turned to them it they fail to clear at least $750 in that time. There are many persons having money to invest. who could not give the business personalattention--such can employ sub-agents without leaving home--making a large amount yearly out of a very small investment. We are not paying salaries. but want men willin to work and obtain as their pay the protsof the r energy. Men not willin to work on our terms will not work on any. hose meaning business will re- ceive our large descriptive circular, and extraor- dinary offer by enclosin a three-cent stamp. with their address.

He was a. bright little boy who had just begun to go to school, and come.in contact with the rough side of the world. Like runny child- ren brought up in a loving home-circle he was se_nsitive and timid ;_ that is, timid about some things, though brave enough in others. For instance, he wasn t afraid cf the dark, or of ghosts, because nobody had ever lled his mind with superstitious nonsense on such subjects ; but he was very much shocked and frightened by the rude boys at the school, with their rough plays and practical jokes, their ridicule and slang, and sometimes their wicked words. One boy especially seemed to delight in tormenting him--Bob Manning, a hard- headed, freckled, active fellow. who wore ragged clothes, and tyranized over all the boys that were well dx essed. Bob s father was a, laborer, who had had bad luck in life, loosing iirst his little savings, then his wife, and becoming a. harsh, reckless. des- perate mau-though he never treated Bob to anything worse than angry words.` But the boy, hearing nothing at home but com- plaints of poverty, and envious, savage talk about rich people, came to consider all such people as natural enemies ; and though he was not at heart more cruel than other thoughtless children, he enjoyed tens- ing and paining his school-mates. > 'I'hA lav hpfnrn flip (lhrinisnnn l-nrlialnua lug uuu. pzuuulg um ucuuul-lunICh'. _ 'i_'he day before the Christmas holidays, Arthur came home with a sad story of small persecutions. Bob V Manning had said his new brass buttons were looney" and no feller would want such buttons as them ; and this opinion he had enforced by cutting off a couple-with his jack-knife and slyly dropping them into the gutter. More- over, hehad scrubbed Arthur's face with snow, because. he said. his mummy didn't wash him enough ; and he had wiped out an elaborate picture of a. locomotive and a train of cars, which Arthur had drawn with much pains, during three recesses, on his slate. $1-1-.. 1- -11 .____,...__ 3? __:J I _L .

Arthurs s mother was highly indignant, and said it was a shame that such boys should be allowed to come to school and that she thought her boy ought to be taken away. But his father, who believed in the public schools, said : My dear, it is good for the boy to be knocked about a little. Of course we must watch that his princi- plea are not corrupted ; but I have too much faith in his home training to be afraid of that ; and, really I think that, having a child who is gentle and intelligent, and will not lie, nor steal, nor swear, it is. our duty to send him where his inuence will reach other children. He will give and re- ceive heuet. . As for the bad boys, unless they are a hundred times worse than any- thing I have heard of Bob Manning, they certainly ought to go to school. It is a good sign in Bob and his father that the youngster goes so regularly. 7 Depend upon it, he may make a good citizen yet. In short, there are two classes of boys who should by _all means attend the common schools, namely. good boys and bad 0110.8- Arthm-`: mo her meditatad nnnn thpnn 3UllU_U.[B, Llllull ' gUUU Ullyl 5" Dan One.
