He had thought the matter all over long ago and his young brain was full of plans for carrying farming on new, and upâ€"toâ€"date plans. There was a good deal of nonsense in ‘these day dreams of his, but, after all, there was something sound about them Poor John Murray was bringing | down trouble on his own head. He bought every book Tommy asked for on the principle that it was far betâ€" ! ter for Tommy to spend his time reading than in picking up bad habâ€" _its. But ifi Tommy hadn‘t read so ‘ much he wouldn‘t bhave been so anxâ€" ious to be a farmer. He got it into his head that the {armer was natâ€" ure‘s nobleman. i Tommy was of the new school and believed that the farm was the place | for the brightest boy, while his unâ€" | ‘ cle was Of the old â€" school, und‘ | thought the bright boys should be + made lawyers, ministers oOr doctors.' i and the dull boys, who were not fit \ for anything elso, were good enough | for the [arm. If Tommy had been Mr. ; Murray‘s son, it would have spoiled my story. For then Tommy would‘ * have been obliged to do his father‘s _ bidding. In justice to Tommy, I‘l say, _ that he would have ob»yed his unâ€" cle, if his uncle had bid him go to _ school. In justice to the uncle, T‘ ‘ say, he did not do the _ bidding. ‘ PThey were both of the Scottish race. â€" | To Tommy the uncle was chief of the clan. To the uncle Tommy was his brother‘s sonâ€"his equal, not his serâ€" vant. It therefore became the uncle‘s duty to convince Tommy that farmâ€" ing was a dreary life, and unfit for ‘ | any but the most dull and stupid. On l the other hand, Tommy felt it his ; duty to convince his uncle that one ~ | bright, clever, willing worker was ‘ ; worth a half dozen ordinary â€" farm Y | hainds. But, as I said before, they Y | were both Scotch, and therefore | most dreadfully hard to convince., » I do not care to dwell too much on 1 the uncle‘s side of the story, for I {‘ feel he was wrong, anyway.

When the call came the second time he drawled out a éleepy "Yeâ€"es," as near the correct thing as ho could get it, and bounded out on the floor, Auntie rushe! about, opening doors, to alr the place.
