Faithful to His Trust.

I was waiting near the elevator In the factory building for my friend to come down when I noticed a small boy sitting In one corner hall holding a large, thick sandwich. He eyed the sandwich lovingly for a long time, then he carefully lifted off the top slice of bread, took out a piece of dill pickle, ate it, and replaced all as before. In a few seconds he again removed the top piece, extracted a jflece of pickle and a piece of meat &nd v,replaced the top. Again and again the performance was repeated until all the plekJe ah£ almost all the meat were gone, the sandwich, however, appearing Intact as at the beginning. "Why don’t you eat up your sandwich and not pick at it in that way?” I asked the boy, with some curiosity. “Why," he answered, looking, up with great innocence, “it ain't my sandwich.” —Woman’s Home Companion.
