Fifteen, going on to sixteen -almost as igia,s a man,and every bit as etrong as one. ten an errand boy all these years, and no ign of ever. being anything else. Wonder f I'm to be an errand boy all my life ? ' In truth Jack was getting almost deeper - to about it, for he was ambitiouet and what merican boy who is good for anything is ot ? But there was very little prospect of ising in the world as an errand boy. To be ure, be had, through years of service,, come o be looked upon as a very triastworthy oy, prompt in all his movements, and satis- actory in the performance of his duties. Che most valuable puede and important essages were always intrusted to him, and is pay had once or twice been raised. Still, e was only an errand boy in the great house f Hill, Trevor & Co, How often, ae he stood near the door aiting for -parcele, had he looked with onging eyes at the print counter, where here was now a vacancy, wondering if he ould ever hope for a place among the favor - ones who stood behind it. One could ot go far wroeg, Jack thought, in measur- ng off yards of bright -colored stuff that you ould take a firm grip of, and roll up into a olid bundle. Jack took a day to think of it, and by ight had worked his courage up tp the oint of speaking to Mr. Beach, one of the anagers. "I've been running errands for five years ✓ more, sir. I've studied at home, and I've een to night-pchool, too; sir, and I know a ittle of accounts, and -and -some one says here's to be a vacency at the print counter and-" "And you'd like to fill it, hey ?" raid Mr. eaah. " Yes, sir." "I'll epeak to Mr. Hill and see. Likely nough, it's filled already." Jack made his bow and went out, dazzled ith even such a small ehow of success in is ambition to take such a huge step. He as a modest boy, yet who can wonder that agnificent visions of future greatness ran hrough his head in the Course pf the. next ew days? Since his father's death years afore, Jack had been obliged to give up his nd hope of aecuring anything in the way f systematic education, as he phrased it, at had kept up his night studies in the rm faith that every small advance in the ay of learning would be some help -'-in his se. Two or three days later Mr. Beach eckoned him into the little room next to e great office. "1 spoke to Mr. Hill about you," said the aneger, as sharply as ever, and he sae s e're filling our retail places mostly with iris." Jack's heart sank. " Girls seem best ited for such business'don't they ?" Jack It ashamed of the big hands with which he roposed to do such light work as measuring ints. "but," went on Mr. Beach, "you've en with ue a long time, and done good ork, so Mr. Hill has concluded to try you. ou may begin next Monday." And Mr. each was talking rapidly to the next one aiming his attention before Jack had half ne thanking him. " I've got it, mother? I've got it 1" Jack d hard work to keep from shouting his eat news all the way home as he tore ong the sidewalk, somewhat to the die- rbanee of quiet passers. " Its a step. e biggest kind of a step. Better pay w, and more steps ahead, if I'm not mis- ken. Hurrah ! But who is this?" notic- g for the firet time a young girl who arose om her seat to greet him. " Well, cousin len !" " I've just come to town to look for work yself," said the visitor, after uniting with ck's mother in 'warm congratulation of s "step." "It's hard finding a situation a small place, so I've come to try in the y )./ "I'm afraid you'll find it hard," eaid ck, shaking his head doubtfully, thinking his long probation as errand boy, and his g seeking after something else. " I'n; afraid so, too," she said, cheerily ; but if 1 eao't do better I can go back:" " If you were only a boy, now," said ek's mother, " you might take his place errand boy till something better turned If Yes, but as I am not a boy, I suppose I ouldn't do."' little flush came over Jack's face as a lembrance of Mr. Beach'e words crossed mind-" Girl's seem beat suited for such us nese. He glanced at his cousin's slight figure and small hands, and the feeling grew even him much more etrongly than he eared to have it that the manager's words were true. What businessaafter all, had a great fellow' like him in handling dry goods? He looked again at his hands. How would they look measuring prints? And how much better suited to tussle with all kinds of weather THE HURON EXPOSITOR. aud tug wi h heavy parcels was his stoutly built fram than to stand behind a counter all day? 'urely such sheltered places were more fit fo girls and women. Jack went to bed with a whirl of contending feelings which he •,ould gladly have shut out of his mind. But before morning his decision was arrived at " Fiftee ,going on sixteen. Almost as big es a man, and every bit as strong. Cousin El en, if I can arrange it with the manager, ou shall go behind the print counter, a d I'll keep at the outdoor work a bit lOnger " Cousin Ellen protested, declaring she would n ver allow such a sacrifice; but Jack wou d not listen to her, assuring her 'that he hi d fully made up his mind on the subjEct of girl's work, and would not under- take it ev, n if she refused the situation. Anothe interview was sought with Mr. Beach, w o, finding Ellen's recommenda- tion satis aotory, agreed to the change, and on Mon ay morning Jack still took his etand a long the errand boys, while his eouEiin resided at : the end of the print counter. " Kee from wet and from crushing," were the directions with which Jack receiv- ed a par el for delivery on the same evening. It was t be carried to another part of the city, an after taking a look at the sky, Jack pu on his rubber coat, and, securing the pare 1 under his coat, set his cap firmly over his Ieyee, and pushed steadily against the stor "Loos ugly ; looks very ugly," he re- peated tld himself as he walked along. Out of breati and half worn out with his long fight ag inst the wind, Jack seized hold of. the bach of a street car and swung himself to the riiar platform for a moment's reit, just as was dashing upon one of the swing bridges iwhich crossed the river. He glanc- ed at the dozen or mere people in the light- ed car, !wishing he could always travel eo comfor 'ably ; then leaned back, enjoying the sud en relief which the shelter gave him. ie looked up at the timber work above ijis head,iwhich creaked and greened as if re dy to fly from its solid foundations, then b ck at the end Of the bridge. And Ithere a strange effeot appeared. The flicker of gaslights and the object brought by then into uncertain view seemed sudden- ly to i4ove in a body to the rig -ht. For a mome t Jack gazed in bewilderment, and then h took in the awful meaning of ewhat 'he sa . .The bridge had broken from its fasten age and was slowly swinging open. The c r, with its human freight, was rush- ing fo ward to the gulf at the other end, With a frantic j cry, Jack bounded from his pe ch and ran after the horses. They were trotting briskly, and'. the driver's head as bent lo -w as he faced the pitiless storm " "B ekes I Put on your brakes The bridg is loose-epen 1" shrieked Jsok, as he strov to catch up with the horses. In the grind of the wiheele and the roar oV tbe etor his voice seemed caught up and whis ed away peyond hearing, while the car s ill Moved ion. With a desperate effort he ft ng himself at the horses' heads, and with a powerful grasp on the bits 'Wood them by main fierce off the tracks. . Th car swepit on, drawing horses and boy in a truggling mass, in which Jack, jerked from side to side by the scared animals,held on w th a grasp in which every nerve and musde of his body seemed to rally in fierce fight with thelappalling danger. Would it be o any use ? 0; ly a few feet lay between them and the angle, waters below. But the driver, awak- one. to the peril of the situation, was ap- plyi g the brake with a strong hand. The car «as slowing. Would it stop in time? Alr ady the dark looking gulf lay before Lthe . But the driver sprang to Jack's hel , the horses were controlled, and the car tood safe on the very edge of the open bri ge. J plr leaned against the framework, dizzy and exhausted, while the alarmed passen- ger hurried from the car. Women grew faint and strong men grew pale at the sight of t e dark -rushing water, in which they had so nearly found certain death. A WO - ma with two chill ren threw an arm around eac , and, with s reaming eyes, knelt in tha ksgiving. My parcel 1" as Jack's first distinct tho 'ght. He badj little hopes of reooveriog it, tit walked ba k to where he had leaped fro the car at hijs first perception of dan- ger and after a li tiesearch came upon a dre ched thing o dainty lace caught in ithe timbers.- That's used p, sure enough," said Jack, ruei ully. "1 w nder if its some of their fin stuff?" Fro n the oare with 'Which it .ha been put up he was inclined o think it ust be. He thrust it into his pocket, an., bruised a d limping, struck out for ho ie.

A mou nful council was held over the lace, Evefn in his dismay at its ruined ap earanoe, Ji ck had built high hopes upon his high opinion of his mother's skill in eve ything requiring deft handling. He bad fel quite sure that if any one could ever bri g back t beauty the forlorn rag, she could. But loth she and Ellen pronounced it iast all help, so far tie returning it to the eto e was coneerned. I'm to pa'y for it, of course, Jack," said Ell n.

How could he raise such a sum? How ould he help feeling utterly discour- aged t such a mishap coming to hirn on the very lay on which he had expected to take his gr nd step upward? " L ok here !" said Mr. Beacheas the bey was lowly turning away; 'f perhaps it could •e arranged for you to pay it in instal- ments if you like -a dollar a week ;out of your p y, say," "It would make it a great deal easier, sir," h said, very earnestly. "1 think jt can be arranged,helt yPu must speak to Mr. Hill.

He had not imagined that Mr. Beach e er had time to think of the, errand boys, ex ept to see that they did their duty Dick s Condition Po*derei Fat ns -Horses and Cattle and got their pay, much leas to speak of them. Mre Hill approved of the proposed plan of malting good the loss, and drew up a paper with the terms of the agreement for Jack to sign. "But," said Jack, holding his pen before signing, as he perceived that the paper was dated from the,loss, "if you would be so good, sir, to make it date from this week, if 1 might ask so much, because of my losing a week by a hurt I got." "Yes," assented Mr. Hill. "By the way," he added, ao Jack signed his name and was turning away with thanks, "how was it you got it ?" "Stopping a beam of street car horees, sir, that night of the storm. May I tell Mr. Beach it'll be all right about the lace, sir, if he keeps back a dollar a week of my pay?" " Where did you stop the horses !" "Down on the - street bridge." "Good -morning, sir." Jack was leaving the room when his employer sprang from his seat. "Do you mean that it Was you who stop- ped the car that was on the open bridgejast Monday night?" " Yee, sir," • " My son was on that car," said Mr. Hill, excitedly. . " Was he ?" his whole honest face beam- ing with surprise and delight. " 1Vhy, I'm ever so much gladder than I was before about it:" His frank gaze met warmly that of the man who wrung hie hand in a friendly clasp. Then he turned toward the door again, re- peating: " Its a great kindness in you to give Me so much tithe. Good -morning, sir. " But stop !" exclaimed Mr. Hill; and Jack waited respectfully to see what further might be wanted of him. The gentleman stood in silence for a few moments and Jack felt uneasy, in fear that Mr. Beach would be impatient at his delay. "Can't you come up to my house to- night ?" asked Mr. Hill at length. " I'd like to have my boy see and thank you for himself." "I'll come, air," said Jack, with ienother bow; "but there's nota bit of need of that. I'd rather have done it than not. And I may tell, Mr. Beach, sir," he persisted, with a feeling that business arrangements among such folks must be made with_ great exact- ness, "that it'll be all right about the lace if he keeps back-" "Oh, bother the lace 1" exclaimed Mr. Hill, tnrning upon him a . look of amused surprise. I: Ion needn't trouble yourself about the lace any more." With a smile he tore in two the agreement, Jack staring at him, scarcely able to take in his good for- tune. * * * * * * * "I've found him -I've found hine,Mary," said Mr. Hill, as he entered hie wife?ti room in a very different manner from his usually quiet one. ' "Found whom ?" she asked. "The one who saved that oar. It ie one of my errand boys." "A boy?" " Yes ; but a stout fellow with a bright, honest face -a boy no oldera than Edward. He came into the office this morning to settle for some goods he happened to lose in the storm that night, and it was by mere acci- dent that I found out that the lose occurred through the very act of atopping those horse. It would have done you good to have teen his faoe when I told him our boy was o' n that car -pleased as a child, but without the faintest idea of having done anything out of the usual •way. Thanked me fervently for letting him off paying for the Ooimpery he lost and he went back to his yvork, and r let him, just because I didn't know what to do till I had, thought about it. Now, Mary, what shall we do in the way of reward! He's coming here to- night."" I'm glad you waited," said Mrs. Hill, thoughtfully. "We want to do our beet for him in the beet way. If the boy is as sim- - ple hearted and modest as you think him, it d be a pity to spoil him." believe you are right, Mary„' said Mr. W U 64 Hill othing that we could give him would ever be a price for what he has done for us," she Said, with a tremble in her voice at the thmight of :the boy who was etill'in the strength and beauty of young life, thanks to thej errand boy. "But you can be his friehdeand help him on. Let him come here and make friends with Edward, too. You can soon make up your mind what to do for h1 " • When Jack came to the rich man's house thajt evening he was astonished when Mrs. hill kissed him, with a suspicion of tears in heil eyee. But that was nothing to the sur- prite which followed. Edward was a nice boY, who did not seem at all to realize the di erenoe between a rich man's son ,and an errand boy. He entertained Jack with ga es and pictures and music, and showed hiii books the like of which Jack had never dr amed of. ' Have you ever thought of what you w uld like to be when you are older ?"ask- ec1 Mr. Hill. " Well, sir," said Jack, "1 think I'd like to get into the business -after a long time, ycu know -when I'd studied a good deal m re-" He stopped in confusion, fearing that he m ght be thought very bold. " Go on," Mr. Hill said, encouragingly. "But when Mr. Beach said I might have a place at the print counter, Which would have been "a great step from running er- reeds, you see, I let my cousin Ellen have it, because Mr, Beach spid it was girls' work te do with dry goods, and I thought so my- self." I" I believe you are right," said Mr, Hill, laughing. "At any rate," he added soberly, "we all have reason to be thankful that those hande of yours were not occupied with Int goods on the night of the storm, Now, y boy, you shall have a better place than tie print counter, if you want it; but s me of us thick it would be better for you t go to school for a while -if you would like it." - "Like it ! Jack's whole frame glowed at the very thought. , " Do you mean -school all- day, sir ?" he a ammered. "But I could never take the t me." . " We'll see about that," said Mr. Hill. Now understand, my boy," he went on, hile Mrs. Hill, who was listening with a f ce full of kindly interest, laid her hand on ack's head as tenderly as his mother could ave done, "some of those belonging to us ere on that car that night, and would like tjo help you on, not by way of payieg you, ut because one good turn deserves another.

Such wits as Jack oseeesed seemed completely to deeert him hen Edward aocompanied him through the ell after he had taken leave of the others. '4, Here," he said, with boyish eagerness, "1 want you to wear this always, in mem- ory,' you know, of what you did for me that night." ' "But I do not need anything to make me remember it," exclaimed Jack, as Edward placed in hie vest pocket • handsome gold watch. "1 shall never forget it as long as I live." "Nor shall I, you may be sure," said Ed- ward. "Good night," And Jack had to stop half a dozen timee on the way home to listen to the tick, tick, !tick, in order to satisfy himself that it was I not all a dream.

"You're a hero, Jack, Just the sort .they have in story books." "Yea, he's a hero," said his mother, "but not beoause he stopped the horses.

The Huron county union of Christie Endeavor Societies held its second amnia convention in the Carmel Presbyterian church, Herisall, on Friday, . Septembe 29th. Circulars and invitations had been freely distributed among all' denominations wher Young People's Societies were organized asking that delegates be appointed to at tend and help to make this convention both pleasant and profitable. or were th officers disappointed, for the attendance wa good, and the deepest interest prevailed throughout the sessions. The morning session commenced at 10 o'clock,with President Henderson in the chai He called up Rev. Mr. Swann, of Hensell for the address of welcome, who on behalf of the local societies, and the kind people of Haman, wished the delegates to enjoy their extended hospitality. An acknowledgment was then made on behalf of those present, by the Rev. John Roes, of Brussels. The minutes of the Wingham convention was read and adopted. Then followed re- ports from the Secretary and the different Societies of the county, showing that the Union had made a very marked increase over the past year, and inspired a determi- nation for a most vigorous campaign the coming year. Rev. Mr. Henderson was appointed dele- gate to attend the Provincial Convention, which is to be held in St. Catharines, on Octobee 10th, Ilth and 12th. The afternoon session was opened with a prayer and praise meeting, led by Rev. E. Softley, of Heneall, after which reports were given of the Montreal and Cleveland Inter- national Conventions, by -President Heuder- sont of Hensall, and A, T. Cooper, of Clin- ton, respectively. The following officers were then reported by the Nominating Committee, and ap- proved by the Convention: President, Rev, G. EL Cobbledidk, Brussels ; Vice -President, Mr. A. Ireland, Wingham; Secretary, A. T. Cooper, Ckienton 4, Treasurer, Mies G. M. Elder, SeaforfftF,• 0ounoillors, Rev. EL H. Watson, Winghani ; Rev. J. D. Kerrin, Bayfielel, and Miss Mills, Lucknow. The Preeident'a ddress was full of good. suggestions, and if ispece would permit we should like to have it printed in full, The Christian Endeavor stood higher in num- bers, influence and' power than ever before; the Society had more influence on present civilization than its railway system ; it set- tled the question of questionable amuse- ments by substitutional employment. The President elect, Rev. G. H. Cobble - dick, gave an excellent talk on "The Pledge," Why ?" Although a subject that has often been talked from, yet the President brought to light many new reasons why this golden - bound pledge should be used by every aociety. " Hints for the prayer meeting," was in- troduced by Miss Stewart, of Goderioh, and she gave such an excellent paper that the Convention, in the discussion which follow- ed, knew of no other ways that the model Prayer meeting, as described by Miss Stew- art, could be improved on. Mies Grace Elder, of Seaforth, with the subject 44 The Country Society," gave many new hints to societies in rural districts, which, no doubt, will be practised byethem during the coming twelve months, Rev. Mr. Kerrin, of Bayfield„ on the sub- ject " Evangelization among the young," gave his personal experience of the work done in Liverpool, where he has, until a few months previous, resided, and took an active part in this important work. The evening program was somewhat changed, yet it proved very interesting and helpful. Rev. J. W. Holmes, of Clinton, in the ab- sence of Rev. Sellery, of'Wingham, gave an enthusiastic address, although he did not know he had to speak until some twenty minutes previous to the time of meeting. He said the grandest work to which we can turn our attention, the place to be able to do important and responsible work, was, to be identified with the cause of Christ. Rev. Mr. Kerrin, of Bayfield, spoke for fifteen minutes, enlarging on his address of the afternoon, and which was quite as in- teresting. Rev. J. II. Larkin, of Chatham, spoke on "Concentration,' since it was the part which the Y. P. S. of C. E. has emphasized. He mentioned Drummond as saying what the world wants iie not more men, but a better brand of men. You could not dis- please Satan more than for a Christian to buckle on the harness and jump right into active work, but this is what Christ wants. Good singing was provided by Mies Hoff- man, of Staffs, and the Goderich and Hen - sail choirs. The next convention will be held in Clin- ton, the date to be decided by the Executive Committee. -Rev.
