little boy- that was a few years
older than I. He thought he was
older than what he really was.
Then he got the idea that he ceud
do almost any thing he wanted. He
burned to stealing little things
and copying other people’s work.
Soon he became a regular little
peat and a menace to other child-

them down, hung them on the tele-

thinking the shoes would arrive
soon. The next day a tramp
came along took the shoes, and
"hung his up. The boy’s father
passing by saw the old shoes,
and said, "I’m glad I sent them
as soon as I did; a cold spell
might have caught him."
