Locise Gardner and Marian Hayes

' were playmates and. friends.- Their dwell-

ings joined, and almost every hour. ofth‘e
day they werctogether, for they attended
the. same school. These two children
were very differently. dispositioned and
_very difierently brought up. Louise was
prhud end haughty. Poverty in her
eyes was a, disgrace and .0. crime, and she
thought nothing too severe for the poor
to suffer. These views the learned from
her mother. -

Mrs. Gardner moved in one exclusive
circle of the 111m ton of New York.

‘ Without its precincts she never ventured,

for all Others were beneath her. Louise,
taught to mingle with no children cannot

The teaching that Marian Hayes re-
received was totally difl'erent from this.
Mrs. Hayes was acknowledged by Mrs.

yet, though she moved auto-g that circle,
she was for from being one Of them.

Her doctrine was the text her little
girl had used; ‘Tbe rich and poor meet
together, ondtbe Lord is the maker of
them all.’ This she taught Marion;
there was no distinction _osto wealth and
position; the distinction was in worth

. alone. She taught her to reverence age,

A gay and brilliant throng were as-

erowdod with strangers. It was an even-
lag party. The brilliantly lighted rdoluo
were filled with yodth and beauty.

Seated near one of the doors were two
.youug ladies, busily engaged in convers-
lug together. The elder of the two 'sud.
deuly exclaim'ed— -

“Oh, Marian, have you seen Mr. Hon-

The rich blood tinged the..eheeks of
Marion, but Louise still declared herself
ignorant as before. Mr. Hamilton then
431111151111 for a moment at Marian, and
telling to Louise, he said:

‘Long years ago, a little boy, ragged
ond dirty, seated himself upon the steps
of a stately mansion on; Fifth Avenue,
New York, and was there busily engaged
in trying to read from _a- bit of paper,
wheh‘ his attention was attracted by two
llttle‘girls, richly dressed. The eldest of
the two particularly attracted .him,'5for'
she wasio‘s beautiful as an angel; but as

her head and exclaimed ‘Boy, what
are you doing here? The boy answered
that he was trying to read. The child of

heard of intellect in rags, and be was
«the very personification of it. Her coin-
ponieu’s answer was, that ‘the rich and
poor meet together, and the Lord is the
seeker of them all.’ The elder girl drove
the boy away ii'om the steps, but the
younger one took him into her dwelling
and warmed and fed him there. When

'tkey parted, the little girl said ‘YOI

must not forget Marian Hey'es’ And

Overwhelmed with confusion, Louise
knew not what to say or do.

In pity for her, Mr. Hamilton rose,
Voud turning to Marian, said.
