Jack told Mr. Gifford all about the Crofield town-lots, and his employer answered:
"That is the thing for you, Ogden; you"ll have some capital, when you come of age, and then we can take you in as a junior partner. You belong in the city. I couldn"t take you in any sooner, you know. We don"t want a boy."
"That"s just what you told me," said Jack roguishly, "the first time I came into this store; but you took me then. Well, I shall always do my best."
THE END.
