He sur- veyed the young fellow with an al- most admiring and fatherly gaze, as he put a few questions to him relat- ive to the matter of employment; 'You would not object to a little hard work, 1 presullie,' 110 said pre- sently, with a searching glance into his young friend's face, and then at his shapely well -kept hands. Lawrence smiled, and his frank gaze met that of his older friend Os he answered: • 'N0, Sil'; you may put me at any- thing within the limits of my strength I am not asking for a sinecure, but will earnestly endeavor to fultiul :my duties that may he assigned to me whether requiring' effort of head or handy or both.' A pleased smile eagle over Mar- Stull's face at this reply, and it was soon Ile eided, that Lawrence should take position at a very early day. He left the office feeling hopeful for the future, and resolved that he would make ills way up the ladder of success if there, were yet virtue in human effort. Success getlerally follows unrClnit 11)„ '1)m' lnclustry'.

'Ili✓ is the most remarkable young fell9w I have ever seen' he declared to ,this wife and daughter. 'liis character has developed exactly in accordance with my expectatiots.' ••Helen Marston, a lovely girl in her tens looked up brightly. 'I have always admired Lawrence's :courage,' she said 'Why dons he so seldom come to see us, pipe? He is more than welcome here.' 'I fancy he keeps pretty busy, his mother tells me he studies every evening. But I'll speak to hint about it:' '011, needed, I'Ielen, with a vivid blush. -He must please himself in the .matter. No doubt he wills come when bes'feels inclined,' and -she hast. ened to Change the subject,,rleaving her father a trifle puzzled by what he considered her contradictory words. Again and again was Lawrence promoted by the firm, until he be- came foreman of a large division of the works, and found }himself at the age of 24, tbo recipient of a handsome salary. There were some remelts• trances when Marston made choice of so young a plan for a position re. quiring in its incumbent so much judgement and practical knowledge. 13ut he replied to them with charas. teristic bluntness and emphasis: 'That young. fellow,' said lie, knows more about machinery, even the most oolnple, than any other Ulan in the place, Do you suppose; I would have kept on promoting }tits for no good cause?

'Come and see it ! It is wonderful -it is perfect. Marston tried to questium 1)1111. but the young man half dragged hien from the room, repeating, 'come end see it!'. And Mar ton followed him to an apartment adjoining the main wing of the works. A small singular -looking machine stood on a rough table, to which Lawrence directed h'°s attention. It was a working model of the inven- tion, over wnich he had labored so lung,a1)d ha now began n to illustrate 1,0 to his employer its perfect successful. working. A[alston looked on, was struck with the marvellous ingenuity of the machine, and realized that it was destined to be the cleans cf fame tied fiches to his friend. He took the young itaventor by the band and warmly congratulated him with every expression of pleasure. 'Tbat will bring Wealth and fame to you toy boy' he said as they were leaving the 'room.
