An Ambitious Boy. Dear Uncle Jed: This is the first time I ever wrote a story to the Wide-Awakes and I am writing about The Ambitious Boy. Once there lived in Moosup 3 boy with his discouraged father and invalid moth- r. | The boy was 13 years old and had just graduated from sekool. his boy always ditt all the work that was to be done at homie and later tried to get work So as to make a little money. This he saved, hoping fhat some day. he Would have enough to pay for his mother's ex- penges if she should want to go away to some hospital where she might be cered. One duy the boy was given a job as driver of a delivery wagon. The same aay while trying to eross the track at a very dangerous corner whers many peo- ple have been injured amd killed a wheel on the wagen became stuck so that he could met cross the traek. 4 little later while the boy was etill trying to cross the track an engine came along ai full speed, as it was late. The Loy was on the wagon, trying te back out, and did not see the engine. The engineer saw the boy but it was too late and it knocked the Doy ofi of.the wagon and broke the wagon. The boy was taken to the hospital and when his mother heard the news she fainted and his father started for the hospital. ‘While the boy was at the hespital an agent came m to ses him. The boy did not- knew much about the accidemt and when the agent for the railroad asked the boy how much he was soing to sue the company for he sald nothing at all. ‘When the .agent returned and told the president of the railroad abeut the um- usual answer, the president made up his d to go and seec him at once. When the president arrived at the| noimml and asked the boy what dam-! he was going to sue for, he said one at all” Then the president gave| the boy a large sum of thoney and paid his hospital expenses. When the boy was beiter he returned home and reeeived also a sum of money from the person for whom he was work. ing the boy sent his mother to hospital, t to college, and his father remained at home. © In a few months his 'kuv T came back an ever and he graduating from colle: zh position g to support a eong and then said our piec ‘Prites were awarded that n one who was the best in geosr: each school.

Dear Uncle Jed: A poor little girl was once peddling oranges at the railway station of a small southern town. She had made very few sales during the morning, and was turning away, tired and discouraged, when a belated passen- ger came hurrying along, and seeing the tempting fruit in the child's basket stopped and asked the price. He took onme-half a dozen but did not have time to pay her, as the train was past leaving. ‘We can easily imagine the poor little peddler’s dismay on seeing the huge iron monster carrying of her fruit and its value. Her grief came from the fact thut she and her mother were the only support of o widowed mother who was an invalid. The sale of these oranges :oulfl lave meant a small fortune for er. When her mother heard of she gently said: “Do not worry, my child; our kind Heavenly Father “fll help to bring this matter to a happy end.
