? suppose yon did not know that
aonkcy.i liaci any jiockcts, save those in
the little green e uits they Huini-times
wear. But that is a mistake; their real
vvcH-kets are in their checks. The other
vrniiig I traveled in the next compart¬
ment to a little becoateri monkey and his
ji aster.
T ic little creature’s day’s work was
vi-r, and, perched up on the sill oT the
carriage window, he produced his supper
from those stowaway pockets of his and
(•ornmeneed to munch it with enjoy
meat, Several times the platform had
to be cleared of the girls and hoys who
had cwne to fee the. little friend off on
his journey, At length a porter, whose
heart was warm toward little folks, al¬
lowed them to slip in an.l remain.
The official.', felt the attraction on that
window, and the stoker addressed the
monkey as “mate.” Ev. n the station
master as he passed cast a sly glance
toward the monkey, and a cheer was
raised when the train was set in motion
and the monkey glided away from big
and little spectators.
I heard the other day of a pet monkey
called ling, a creature no larger than a
guinea pig, whose master once found in
hl'n cheek pocket a steel thimble, his own
gold ring, a pair of sleeve links, a
farthing, a button, a shilling and a bit
of candy. Monkeys, l am Horry to say,
arc given to stealing and they use these
pockets to hide tho articles which they
have stolen.

Very few of us lmv opportunities to
do great things, but we nil may be kind
ind loving (-> those about us, ami can
never tell how far our kind words and
loving acts may reach. The Youth'*
Temperance /tanner gives an incident
which proves that great good sometimes
grow out of small actions.
Z,oa Rodman, as she practiced her music
day after day, noticed a tiny, poorly-clad
child hanging around the gate.
“YVho is it ?” slio asked, “and why
docs she. come?”
“Hhe is charmed, I think,” replied her
aunt, laughing. “Her name is Maggie
Sherman, and her poor father is one of
the victims of drink,” site added more
soberly, “Poor little thing! it is too
iwid."
Ena went to the door.
“Come in, little Maggie t” sin said
kindly.
l’lie child could hardly credit her
tenses. Tho beautiful young lady, who
snug so like an angel, had spoken to her
Rad asked her to come in!
She entered shyly.
“Are you fond of music?” Zoa asked.
“O, j'es,” she answered; “1 do love it
«o.”
“And can you sing?"
“A little—somo of the pretty songs
you sing,” said tho child.
“I am glad to sing for you; won’t you
let me hear you sing?” said the beautiful
young lady.
Little Maggie commenced with a trem¬
bling voice, for slit- felt like one in
a dream; but as she snug on tho music
took possession of her, and site thrilled
and warbled like a bird.
“Thank you," said Zoa, “Would you
tike to have me teach you to sing and
play. Maggie?"
*-()t O' would yon! But I have no
money."
“No; and 1 do not offer to tench you
for motley, Only come to me every day,
ind 1 will teach you what I can.”
When Maggie Sherman a few years
atcr Ik-chhc a noted singer and musician,
and lifted her fa her’s family to respect¬
ability and comfort, it was not generally
known that all tie ir happiness arose
from the kindness of Zoa It olman.
