Horatio Alger, Jr., in "Facing the World," gives us as his hero a boy whose parents have both died and the man appointed as his guardian is unjust and unkind to him. In desperation he runs away and is very fortunate in finding a true friend in a man who aids him and makes him his helper in his work as magician.

They travel over the country and have many interesting experiences, some narrow escapes and thrilling adventures. M+NifklRuY7mdf8jyYH2sTQNSwKXr3+GjkeqKUOjMtHfCSMgZVFacpt+SJ7YheNc
