There is one vital dltferetice between. these homo-

' Appeals to Thrift. So it is enslcr to tcach those boys the savings bank

“Appetite is s vulnerable point with them," says

Mr. Hennefrund. "Most ot them have a capacity of several liberal helpings. Cutting them down to one is sn excellent way to stir up their energies,"

Messrs. Hennefr-and and Patterson have each usd

They are more iiinennhie to discipline and you ciin generally reach and hold them with sympathy and kindness, in hoth of wliii-li posses- sions their lives have been sadly lacking. '

Mr. Patterson received word one afternoon that the

little suderer was dylnpf and hurried to his cot. Even then Leon was cheerfu. He hud a firm _pellet ln the ettlcacy of a little lemon Juice and suga_. which had always cured his colds, and which he believed was good for every ailment. He had pleaded so hard for it that at last, to quiet hlni, the nurse gave hlin his "dose,"

His Friend Patterson. ‘

He was very optimistic as his friend .\ir. Patterson

sat down by his cot. "Aw, I t’lnk l'll be up in s week," said he.

And then Mr. Patterson told liliii the truth. very

simply and tsartully.

The boy listened with wide open eyes. “ls dat
