Excerpt: ...the store. Old Goodnow ought to give me ten dollars. Don''t let him hear you speak of him as OLD Goodnow, Jasper. Oh, I''m smart enough for that. I mean to keep on the right side of the old chap. What sort of a man are you working for? Mr. Sargent is a fine man. He isn''t mean certainly. I should like to be in your shoes. If I hear of any similar position shall I mention your name? asked Rodney, smiling. No; I could not take care of a kid. I hate them. Still Arthur is a nice boy. You are welcome to him. What do you have to teach? He is studying Latin and French, besides English branches. I know about as much of Latin and French as a cow. I couldn''t be a teacher. I say, Rodney, and Jasper cleared his throat, I want you to do me a favor. What is it? I want you to lend me ten dollars. Rodney was not mean, but he knew very well that a loan to Jasper would be a permanent one. Had Jasper been his friend even this consideration would not have inspired a refusal, but he knew very well that Jasper had not a particle of regard for him. I don''t think I can oblige you, Jasper, he said. Why not? You get fifteen dollars a week. My expenses are considerable. Besides I am helping Mike, whose salary is very small. I pay the whole of the rent and I have paid for some clothes for him. You are spending your money very foolishly, said Jasper frowning. Would I spend it any less foolishly if I should lend you ten dollars? There is some difference between Mike Flynn and me. I am a gentleman. So is Mike. A queer sort of gentleman! He is only a poor telegraph boy. Still he is a gentleman. I should think you might have money enough for both of us. I might but I want to save something from my salary. I don''t know how long I shall be earning as much. I might lose my place. So you might. And I could hardly expect to get another where the pay would be as good. I would pay you on installment Horatio Jr. Alger, Books, Cast Upon The Breakers Books The book has no illustrations or index.
