little Nellie a Christmas present,” he
was saying to himself, when a young
fop, who was coming down the street
said, “Get out of the way, you little
street gamin,” emphasizing his words
with a thrust of his cane, “and quit
peeping into that store. You are the
kind tnat is forever stealing some
thing.”
Poor little Jimmie shrank back at
these cutting words, and the dude
passed on, finding it necessary to
cross the street. He was so engross
ed in his own thoughts that he did not
notice a fast-approaching street car.
Jimmie, wno had been watching the
young man, now called out, “Look out,
mister, the car’s cornin’,” but the
young gent did not hear him, and
walked on until he was in the center
of JW*har just a few
feet from him. It was at this time
that he first realized his danger and
in the moment lost all presence of
mind. The motorman tried to stop
the car, but all to no avail, and the
young dude would have been instantly
kined, had not Jimmie, who by this
time reached the spot, caught the
man’s coat and pulled with all his
might, thus throwing the dandy from
the track. But not so well for Jim
mie, —in the great pull which he made,
he lost his balance and fell headlong
before the car, and after being dragg
ed some distance, was finally picked
up, bruised and bleeding, and carried
into the store across the street.
The proprietor of the store was the
uncle of the young man, whose life
Jimmie had saved. Mr. Lewis was a
kind-hearted gentleman, and he had
jimmie laid on a bed in a little side
room of his store, after which, he
summoned a physician.
“Now, my boy,” said Mr. Lewis, sit
ting down by our little hero’s side,
“what is your name?”
“Jimmie Marlowe, sir.”
‘Jimmie Marlowe!” exclaimed Mr.
Lewis, “what is your mother’s name,
child?” he asked eagerly.
“Nellie Marlowe, sir.”
“Nellie Marlowe!” repeated Mr.
Lewis. “Yes sir, and my father is
dead. You see it was this way”—
gasping for breath, Jimmie paused.
“Yes, yes, my lad, go on,” Mr. Lewis
replied anxiously.
“My papa died several years ago,”
continued the boy, “we were very hap
py until he died. We lived in a pretty
house out in the country, but we had
to sell our house, and after this, papa
got sick and died. Then nrmma mov
ed here to the city wherl she could
get sewing and where I ould sell
newspapers. We got along ry well,
until about two months ago when
mamma got sick so that she could not
sew and in a few days, Nellie, my lit
tle sister, got sick too, and all the
money that we have had since then
has been what I have made selling pa
p-’-s.”
Jimmie, very faint, fell back on his
pillow.
“My poor boy,’ mused Mr. Lewis,
"and to think of Ne..ie being in such
poverty, while I have wealth to give
away I wonder if it is too late for
me now?” At this time, the physician
entered tne room, and after examining
tne little fellow told Mr. Lewis that
he was not seriously hurt, but that he
should be moved to a more quiet
piace.
Mr. Lewis instantly ordered an am
bulance and had Jimmie carried to
his residence, where a trained nurse
was placed in charge.
After attending to these particulars,
he got Jimmie’s address, and taking
a friend with him immediately set out
for the place. On and on, through
the city, and down into the slums
rolled the cab, finally stopping be
fore a large tenement building. The
friend then alighted, and following di
rections climbed flight after flight of
rickety stairsteps, until at last he
reached a door, and in response to a
low, sweet “Come” entered a long,
narrow room, which was nearly desti
tute of furniture, but neat and clean.
Gn a low bed in one corner lay a
beautiful, golden-haired, blue-eyed girl,
about six years of age. By her side
sat a pale-faced, delicate, woman, old
before her time, yet wearing many
traces of the beauty of her youth. At
the man’s entrance, she arose and
came forward. In as gentle a voice
as he could command, he told his sad
errand, adding that there was a friend
outside who wished to see her.
Stepping to the door, he called Mr.
Lewis, who on entering the room said,
“Nellie?”
“John!” she exclaimed, and with
the two great shocks upon her deli
cate nature, she fell fainting to the
floor. She was soon restored, and in
a few minutes was ready to accompa
ny them to Mr. Lewis’ residence, leav
ing little Nellie in the care of a
friend.
When they arrived, and entered the
room where Jimmie lay, she rushed to
his side, and whispered, “My dear lit
tle Jimmie, my brave little boy.”
“I’m all right, mother,” said the
little hero, “and Mr. Lewis says he
