Two men, on their way home, met at a street crossing, and walked on They were neighbors and friends. “This has been a very hard day,’’ said Mr. Freeman, in a gous voice. And as they walked homeward they discouraged each other and made darker the clouds that obscured their whole horizon. “Good evening’’ was at last said, hurriedly; and the two men passed into their homes. Mr. Walcott entered the room where his wife and children were gathered, and without speak- ing to any one, seated himself in a chair, and leaning his head back, closed his eyes. His countenance wore a sad,weary, exhausted look. He had been seated thus only a few minutes, when his wife said, in a fretful voice: “More trouble again.” “: What is the matter now?” asked Mr. Wal- cott, almost starting. “* John has been sent home from school.”’ i Mr. Waloett partly rose from his ebair. * He bas been suspended for bad conduct.” i: “0b, dear!’’ groaned Mr. Walcott; “where is ie “Up in his room; I sent him there as soon as hecame home. You'll have to do something with him. He'll be ruined if he goes on this =e I'm out of all heart with him.” t. Walcott, excited as much by the manner in which his wife conveyed unpleasant infor- mation as by the information itself, started up, under the blind impulse of the moment, and. going to the room where John had been sent on coming home, punished the boy severely, and this without listening to the explanation which the poor child tried to make him hear. “ Father,’’ said the boy, with foreed calm nese, after the cruel stripes had ceased, ‘I was not to blame; and if you will go with me to the teacher, [ can = myself innocent.”’ Mr. Walcott had never known his son tell an untruth, and the words fell with a rebuke upon his heart. “Very well—we will see about that,” he an- swered, with forced sternness ; room, he went down stairs, feeling mach more uncomfortable than when he went up. Again he seated himself in his large chair, and leaned back his weary head, and close: heavy eyelids. Sadder was his face than be- fore. Ashe sat thus his eldest daughter, in her sixteenth year, came in and stood by him. She held a paper in her hand— “Father ''’—he opened his eyes. “Here's my quarter's bill; can’t I have the mogey to take to school with me in the morn- “I am afraid not,” half in despair. “Nearly all the answered Mr. Walcott, girls will bring in their mo- ney to-morrow, and it mortifies me to be be- hind the others.” The daughter spoke fret- fully. Mr. Walcott waived cc aside with his hand, and she went off muttering and pouting. “It is cen yi said Mrs. Walcott, a lit- tle sharply ; ‘and I don’t wonder that Helen feels annoyed about it. The bill has to be paid and I don't see why it may not be done as well at first as last.’’ The To this Mr. Walcott made no answer. and leaving the | of M: ain | day—a day that he had looked forward to with his | fear and trembling. this renewed strength he was able to overcome the difficu loomed up, mountains high, before him.
