The JToneot Boy Makes Ike
x
Honest Man. ’.
“Arc nil tlicHO stories true, tliat
wo read in papers' of poor boys
who' were very honest and
good and then become great
meu?” asked Master Arthur
Forsyth of his father as lie finish
ed reading a story, iu a religious
paper.
“Well my sou," replied Mr,
Forsyth, “tliat is rather a com
piehensivo question', alto requires
more than 1 knew to answer; imt
I can assure you that a good
tntny of them are quite true.
Besides, I do not see why they
may not be true; and there is
nothing incousistaui in an honest
boy’s getting along in this world
better thau a dishonest one, any
more than it is expected that tin
industrious scholar will learn more
at school than a lacy idle, one.
Indeed, I have known hoys who
porve just such n'uhurnuteras those
of whom yon read. One in par
ticular I remember, who was a
uobie example of honesty."
“Well.papa, won't you tell me
alH>ut him?" said Arthum “it sat
isfies me so much more when 1
know it is tine.”
“This, I can assure yon,is true;
for 1 was myself a witness of many
instances of his honesty. He was
a schoolmate of mine when 1 was
a boy; and 1 retncinb.T his tuakc-
ing diligent inquiry to find the
owner of n tup which he found on
tho playground, and, when lie
knew the Inser, he returned it to
him with great satisfaction.”
"But, pspu," said Arthur;
“that was not tuuoii honesty,”
“How much mure honesty would
you waut him to have? Ho had
enough for tlie occasion, and that
wostcfiml the owner of a playth
ing whicli ho fouud and mighthnve
kept to himself. Besides, it shows
the good principle which he culti
vated even when a cliBA On one
occasion he went into N^ationer's
to purchase some pens, and when
ho got homo ho found that tho
man had given him a penney too
muoh in change; lie went hack the
very next day and returned the
penney.”
That was very little; besides
the man might never have missed
it,” said Arthur.
“I think it was a great deal;
and suppose it had never been
missed, it might have prorod the
commencement of u dishonest
course to tho yoUng nianj encour
aging covr tousness and lending ti
theft, do you not think stealing is
dishonest? On another Wccasion,
having made a purchase, after lie
left tho store, in a large city where
he wasa perfect stranger, lie foiled
that one of the hills recived, in
change was a great deal larger
than was intended. IU had got
away some distnneo and was in
haste, but-tonk pains to walk hack
and return tho money.”
And what good did it do hi in, ’'
asked Arthur.
“Why it did him great good to
hear one cleark say to another
who waspresnt; ‘Th'at is an hon
est boy.-’ Once he found two dol-
hus on-the floor nl a large store:
no one saw him pick it np, hut
that was no unit er to this truly
honest hey. lie rallied tlie mon
ey to tho desk to see if it belong
there. They thought not, but lie
iult it, saying lie would-caH again,
and if they hail not touiid the own
er,ho would elaim it.” :
“Did they find the ewBer?” in
quired Arthur.
“No; ho asked for it, “tint tho
cashier said they must have lost it
themselves,-.and refused to give it
up.”
“That was not very honest in
tlie cashiers,” said Arthur.
“Not very, but lie acted as hon
estly .HS'U great many persons do
who takes to themselves orodit for
being atriotly honest, when trav
eling .in a railroad car on uuo oc-.
ca.ion, the conductor overlooked
him iu taking up the tickets."
“Thou ho could travel on tiie
same ticket again,” interrupted
Arthur.
,‘8» he could, had he not been
honest; but he chose to hand up
the ticket as lie steppi d off the car.'
‘•Well, in order to act hoestly,
ninst'one give up his ticket wheth
er asked lor it nr noi?" inquired
Arthur,
“If lie never travels on tluit
ticket again, nor give it to any
one else to use, then it may make
uo difference whether lie gives it
up or not; but if he uses it again,
lie is simply taking twice as much
as lie has paid fur, uud that is not
ImmeM,”
“But I should rather hoar of
his doing something Hint would
ho a real test of honesty,” s.--id
Arthur, “some can ho honest in
little-things who cun not be so in
great mutters.' 1
“When he had grown up to be
a young man of suveuleen, his fa
ther sent him away two hundred
miles from home to attend sellout
Ho had never been in so large a
city before, and,having arrived by
night, was anxious’next morning
to seethe splendors of the city.
Wulking along a crow,led street,
imagine Ids suprise to see at bis
foot a large, wolf filled purse. He
picked it up very quickly and suc
ceeded in putting it in his pocket
without being noticed.”
“Did ho want to keep it inter
rupted Artjj.iir.
“Wait, my sun, and you shall
hear the end. He feared some
person might claim it who had no
more right to il than he luid him
self. But, after putting it in It is
pocket, lie walked several times
along tlie same street, backward
and forward, to see if any one
would seem to have lost it; but uo
one appearing, lie went to school
witli the purse in hits pocket.”
“Then I suppose lie was free to
keep it,” remarked Arthur.
So thought a young man ut tho
school, to whom ho communicated
the fact und of wham lie-sought
counsel. That friend asuned him
that lie was perfectly justifiable
in using tho three hundred mid
fifty dollars wliioh the purse con
tained in promoting his education;
‘besides,’ said ho, ‘the owner was
probably, some rich person, and
would never miss it.’ ‘But,’said
tliis honest hoy, ‘snppnfflthe own
er Ini very poor, or a clerk merely
carrying the money for his /em
ployer, and suppose ho Idsf iris
situation oii aceounf'of this' mis ;
fortune?' ‘That is not at all like

should even bo so, you would not
