An Incident

An Incident.—Several men put horses in a shed, the charge of which was twenty-five cents a horse. Money was collected in advance of nearly all. Later, one of the company spent some time in finding the stable-keeper, to pay his bill. The latter uttered a half profane ejaculation, and said with much vigor, "There are honest men in the world yet." But it was no credit to the man who paid; he did only his duty. The sad thing is that when a man was found who did have a regard for moral obligation it caused surprise. It ought to be otherwise.
