TR e BY MABK TWAIN. sSabbath.scheol hours were from 9 ast 10 ; and thea church 0 of the obildren always remained for the sermon voluntarily #ud the others £1ways remained too ~~for stronger reasous. Thechurch’s high - backed - uncushioned pews would seat about 800 persons; the edifice was but & small, plain adair, with a sort of pine-board tree box on It for a eteeple. At the door Tom ¢ropped back & step aod aceost- ed a Sunday-dreesed comrade : Billy, got a yaller ticket?"” “Yes.” “What'll you take for ber ?” «Woat'll you give ?” “Piece of lickerish and a fish- hook.” ““Liess see 'am.” lom exhibited. They weresatis. | factory and the property changed. liands- Then Com traded a couple of white allegs for three red tickets and some ifle or otber for a couple of blue ones. He waylaid other huva 82 they came, aud went on buging tickets of various colors ten or fifeeen minutes longer. He en. tered the church now with a swarm of clean and noisy boys and girls, proceeded to his seat and started a quarrel with the first boy that came handy. The teacher, a grave elder- 1y man, interferred; then turned his back a moment and Tom pulled @ boy’s hair in the next bench, and was absorbed in his book when the boy turned around ; stuck a pin in avother boy, presently, in order to | hear him say “Ouch!” and got & new reprimand from his teacher. Tom’s whole class were of a pattera ~—Testless, noisy and troublesome. When they came to recite their lessons, not one of tusm knew his | verses perfecily, but had to be! prompted all along. However, they worried tbrough, and each got his reward in small biue fickets each with a pussage of Soripture on it; each blue ticket was pay for two ! verses of the recitation Ten bive | tickets-equalled a rd ove, and could e exchanged for it; ten red tickets equalled a yellow oue; for ten yel- low tickets the superintendent gave s very plainly bound Bible (worth | forty cents in those easy times)to | the pupil. How many of my read- e would bhave the udustry wod | application to memorize 2,000\,;..,, even for & Dore Bible? 4nd yoi— Mary bad acquired teo Bibles n | this way—it was the patient work of two years—a ¢ g boy of German pmu age had, won four or five. He %, 3,000 verses without | £l0ppingy but the stram upon bus men'al faculties was too great, and he was Jitile better than an idiot @om that dsy forth—a grievous mis- fortune for the school, for on great oocasions, before company, - the | Superintendent (as Tom expres- sed it) had always made this boy come out and ‘epread himself.” Only the older pupils managed to keep their tickets and stick to their tedious work long enough to get a bible, and o the delivery of oue of those prizes was a rare, noteworthy circumstance; the sucoessful pupil Was 0 great and conspicuous for tuat day that on the very spot every scholar’s beart was fired with a fresh ambition that often lasted a couple of weeks. [t s possible that Tom’s mental stomach had never really Lungered for one of those prizes but unquestionably his entire being had for many day longed for the glory and eclat that came with it. Ta due course the superintendent stood up in frout of the pulpit, with # closed hymn-book 1n his hand and Lis forefinger inserted between ils leaves, ana commanded attention. When a Sunday-school superinten- dent makes bis customary little speech & hymz-book in the hand 18 58 necessary as the inevitable sheet of music in the hand of a singer who stands forward on the piatform and singss solo ata concert—though why, is a mystery; for neither the hymun-nook nor the shect of musio 18 ever referred to by the sufferer. The superintendent was a slim of thirty-five, with a sandy goatee aud short sandy hair; he wore u stiff standing collar whose sharp point= curved forward abreast the corners of his mouth—s fence that compelled a straight lookout sbead, and a turning of the whole body when a side view was required i chin was propped on a spreading “ravat, which was as broad and as a bank note, and bad fringed 0is boot-toes were turned y up, in the fashion of the duy, like sleigh runners—an effect patiently aud laboriously produced by the young men sitting with their 10es pressed against a wall for hours together. Mr Walters was very esrnest of mien, and very sincere and honest at heart; and he held sacred things and piaces in such reverence, and 80 separated them from worldly matter that uncon- sciously to himeelfhis. Sunday-school voice had scquired a peculiar in. tonation which was wholly absent on week days. He began after this fashion. ““Now, children, 1 want you all to sit up just as straight and pretty as you can, and give me all your atten- tion for a minute or two. There— that s the way geod little boys and girlssnould do. I see one Little girl who 18 looking out of the window. 1 am afraid she thinks I aw out there somewhere—perhaps up in gue of the trees, making a speech to the little birds. | Applausive tit- ters.] I want to teil you how good 1t me feel to see so many ‘b clean little iaces assembled In & place like this, learning to do right and be good.” And so forth andso on. It is not necessary to setdown the rest of theoration. It was of a pattern which does not vary, and it is familiar to us all. The latter third of the speech was mared by the resumption of fights and other recreaticus, among cer- tain of the bad boys, and by fidget- ings and whisperings that extended far aud wide, washing even to the bases of isolated and incorruptible rooks Iike Nid. and Mary. But now every sound oeases suddenly, with the subsidence of Mr, ‘alter's ‘voice, and the conclusion of the speech was recerved with_a burst of wilent gratitude. A good artol the whi been occasioned by an event ‘wa- more or less rare—the entrance of visitors ; lawyer Thatcher accom- panied by & very feeble and aged “man; = fine, portly, middle-aged gentieman with iron-gray hair; and a dignified lady who was doubtless the latter’s wife. The lady was leading a child. Tom had been restless and full of chafings and re- pinings ; conscienge-smitten, too— - he conid not meet Amy Lawrence’s eye, he could not brook her loviug gaze. But when he saw thus small new eomer, his soul was ablaze with bliss in & moment. The next mo- ‘ment he was “‘sbowing off” with all b might_outlug boys, pullivg hair, m: king faces—in & word, using every art that seemed likely to fae- cinate a girl and win ber His exaltation had but one alloy— the wemory ot his humiliation in this angel’s garden—and that rec ord in sand was fast washing out had under the waves of happiness that were sweeping over it now. ‘The visitors were given the bigh- et seat of honor, and as soonas Mr. Walters’ was finisbed he in- troduced them to the school. The middle-aged man turned out to bea. lous personage—11o less & one than the county judg- —altogether the most august creati : theee chil- dren had ever looked upon—and they wondered what ki:.d of mate- rial he was made of - :nd they half wanted to bear bim ; .:r, and were balf afraid he might, too. He was from Constantinople, twelve miles away—so he had traveled and seen the world—these very eyes had looked upon the county court house, Which was eaid to have a tin roof. The aweinspired by these reflection: was attested by the impressive si- lence and the ranks of staring eyes. This was the great Judge Tuatober, | brother of their own lawyer. Jeft Thatcher immediately went for- ward, to be familiar with the great man, and be envied by the school. | It would nave been music to hissoul {0 hear the whisperings «Fook at bum, 3im 17 Hs's a go- | ing up there. Bay—look! he's & going to shake hands with him—he is shaking hands with him! By Jings, don’t you wish you was Jeft 2" Mr. Waltersfell v “‘showing oft,” with all sorts of official bustling and aotivities, giving_orders, deliv- ering judgments, discharging direc- tions here, there and everywher ‘that he could find target. The Ii brarian “showed off ”—ruuning and making a deal of splutter and fuss that 1nsect suthority delights in. The young lady teachers ‘‘showed oft "—bending sweetly over pupils that were lately being boxed, lifting pretty warning fingers at bad litrle boys and patting good ones loving- | ly. The young gentlemen teachers “showed "off” with small scoldings and other little displays of authori- ty and fine attention to disciplive— | and most of the teachers of both | sexes found business up at tae brary, by the pulpit; and it was ' pusiness that frequently | | hat to be done over again two or three times( with much seeming vex- ation). The little girie “showed off” in various ways, and the little boys | “showed off” with such dillgeucu‘ that the air was thick with baper wads and the murmur of seuffiings Aud above 1t all the great msn eat and beamed g majestic smile upon all the hovze and warmed himeell in the Zun of his own grandeur— 105 fae was “showing off too.” There was only oxe thing want- ing to make Mr. Walter's ecstacy ! comeplete, and that was a chance to deliver a bible-prize and exhibit | a prodigy. Several pupils hod & few yeliow tickets, but none had | enough—he had been around among the star pupila inquiring. He would have given words, now, to have that German lad back again with a sound mind. And now atthis moment, when hope was dead Tom Bawyer came forward with nine yellow tiokets aud ten blue ones, and demanded a Bible Thie waz a thunderbolt out of a clearsky. Walters was not ex- pecting &u application from this wource for the next ten years. But there wasno getting around it— here were the certified ohecks, and | they were good for their face. Tom was, therefore, elevated toa place with the Judge and the other elect, and the great news wae announced from headquarters. 1t was the ‘most stunning serprise of the decade, and the new hero up to the judical one’s altitude, and the &chool had two marvels togaze upon, in place of one. The boys were all eaten up with envy—but those that suffered the bitterest pangs were those who perceived, too late, that they them- selves bad contribuited to the hated splendor by trading fickets to Tom for the wealth he had amassed in selling whitewashing privileges. These despised themselves as being the dupes of a wily fraud—a guile- ful suake in the grass, The prive was delivered to Tom with a8 1uch effusion as the super- intendent coula pump up under the ciroumstances; but it Incked some- what of the true gush, for the poor fellow’s instinct taught him that there was a myatery bere that could not well bear the light, perhaps; 1t was simply preposterous that this bov had warehoused 2,000 sheaves of Boriptural wisdom on his premises —a dozen would strain his capacity without & doubt. Amy Lawrence was proud and glad, and sbe tried to make Tom see it in her face—but he wouldn’tlook. She wondered ; then she was just & grain troubled ; next a dim susplo- 10n came snd’ went—came f she atohed; a furtive glance told her words, and then her heart broke; she was jealous and angry, and the tears came—and she hated every. body. Tom most of all (she thought.) Tom was introduced to the Judge; but his tongue was tied, his breath would hardly come, his heartquaked — partly because of the awtul great- nees of the man, but mainly because he was her parent. He would have liked to fall down aud worship him, if it were in the dark. The Judge puthis hand on Tom's head and called him a fine hittle man, and asked what his name was The boy stammered, gasped, and got 1t -5 “Oh, no; not Tom—it is—" “Thomas.” “Ah, that's it. T thought there was more toit, maybe. That'svery well. But you've another one, 1 dare say, and you'll tell it to me, won't you ?” “Teil the gentleman your other name, Thomas,” aid Walters; “and say ‘sir—you mustn’t forget your manners.” “Thomas Bawyer—sir.” “That'sit! That's a good boy. Fine boy. Fine, manly lutie fel- low. Two thousand verses 1 a great many—very, very great many. And you never can be sorry for the trouble you took to learn tF em ; for knowledge is worth more than any- thing thereis m the world; 1t's what makes great men and good men; you'll be & great man and a good' man yourself, some day, Thomas, and then you'll ook back sud say: 1s all owing to my dear teachers that taught me to learn— it's all owing to the good superin- tendent, who encouraged me and watched over me, and gave mea beautiful Bible to keep and have it all my own, always—it's all owing to right bringing up. That 1s what you_ will eay, Thomas—and you wouldw't take any mo- ney for those two thous- and verses—-noindeed, you wouldn’t. And now you wouldn’t mind telling me and this lady some of the things you've learned ? no, I kuow you Wouldn’t, for we are proud of tna little boys teat learn. Now, ne doubt, you know the names of sll the twelve disciples. Won’t you tell us the names of the first two that were appointed?” Tom was wgging at a button hole and looking sbeepish. He biusted now and bis eyes fell. Mr. Walter's heart sank within him. He said to himself, it is not possible that the boy can snewer the first_question— why did the Judge ask him? Yet he felt obliged to speak up and ey : “Answer the gentleman, Thomas; don’t be afraid.” Tom still hung fire. “Now, I know you will tell me,” said the lady. “The names of the first two d-sciples were—'" +David snd Golliah 1" SPECIAL QUOTATIONS.
