A coal dealer in the suburbs was
called upon at his office by a poor,
hard-working woman and requested io
send a basket of coal to her home: oWe
do not deliver so smail a quanity,T* was
the merchants reply. oIt is our inva-
riable rule never to deliver less than a
quarter of a ton.�
oBut I cannot pay for-so much,TTwas
the pitiful confession, oand I heve. lett
my little children at home in a fireless
room. What am I to do?�
oWell,� returned the dealer a kindii-
er Jight beaming in his eyes, o1 cannot
depa:t trom my rules as to the quanti"
ty.T Then turning to his clerk he con-
tinued: oJohn, have a quarier ofa ion
of coal sent to the womanTs address as
scon as possible.�
oBut I cannot pay for so much,� she
expostulated; \ .
oT already understand that you canTt
