,le hands tried to scrape together earth enough
+, stop the leak. The cold was SO in tense.
and the ground SO hard, that he made little or
no progress; and the terrible opening in the
dyke grew larger every moment. Little Hans
shuddered, aud then paused in perplexity and
distress. Then, without hesitating longer, he
toie OIL his warm coat, and rolling it up like
wad, pressed it against the crevice. The wa
ter forced it away, however, and the boy found
that in order to stop the current he must hold
itthere with all his strength. a'
He had brave heart, but it sank when he
saw this; for he knew that it would compel
him to remain all night, unless assistance
came to him, and he was afraid that he would
freeze to death in the storm. He hoped, how
ever. that his mother would miss him and
search for him. Yet he knew that if aid did
not come soon his strength wonld not be
equal to the task Of sustaining hlsllie through
the night. Still he was determined to make
the effort, for he knew that If the sea broke
through. Lis parents and brothers and sisters
wc.,ld be drowned, and all the country round
about destroyed.
so the child seated himself ON the ground,
and pressed with all his might against the
opening with his thick coat. Soon he felt that
the waterceased to flow through. Yet it took
ali his strength OF will and body, all his couI-
age to sustain him, for he was growing numb
with the cold, and suffering greatly. HIS
pain increased every moment, and then it
ceased, and he felta dreamy, pleasant languor
steal over him.
He seemed to hear strains of sweet music,
and voices crying, BLESSED child! God has
blessed the little Hans!" 1t was very sweet
and he wondered what had become of the
cold and storm, but he never relaxed his
grasp ON the opening.
When the morning dawned it found Dirk
Dauneker and his wife searching YEARLY for
their child along the dyke, for the storm was
diving away, and the sun was coming out
again.
"Alas" sobbed the mother, ''he has perish
ed in the storm; and when he left me, asked
heaven to bless him"
The father paused, and great cry escaped
his lips.
"Look, wife. !" he cried. elias not heaven
blessed our boy? See! He has made him
the savior of our country"
Yes, there lay little Hans, his form stiff and
rigid, and his face pinched and pale, but with
his hands pressed tightly against his coat,
which was now frozen to the dyke. Even in
death the child had not relaxed his grasp up
on the coat; and, as he had fallen upon it
in dying, his weight had kept pressed against
the opening until it froze there.
Heaven had indeed blessed him, for he had
made the child the means of saving the prov
