what Whites Puppy Did.

Two or three little boys, almost
babies, were standing near man who
was whipping his horse to make him
draw very heavy load of coal. One
of them called out in his helpless in
dignation: Stop that, Mister You
shan't whip that nice old horsey any
more !"
But still the smutty fellow laid on
the whip. Another of the children ex-
claimed: You better stop that, or,
or, I'll whip you real hard with my
horsewhip when I'm a man. Stop
else I'll tell my father of you -
The man laughed til he looked up
and saw the third baby boy sitting
down by stone wall crying bitterly,
and rubbing his eyes with his white
blouse. He stopped his cruel work and
called out +: ''Wnat are You crying for?
This isn't your fathers horse little
fellow"
I'm crying cause, | don't want
that nice Old horsey hurted. Please
don't hurt him any more, and I'll help
push the cart, and Sam and Joe will
push too -
The man laughed out very loud, and
said: L" Why, you could draw the
coal yourself But why don't you
like to see the horse whipped ~
Cause, cause sobbed out little
! Willie, cause I've got puppy at
home!n
Now, there seemed no sense, at first
thought, in this reply of the dear ten
der-hearted child; but there was a
great deal of good sense in it. What
| Willie meant was this: 81 own pup
py that | love, and | would not have
him whipped nor hurt in any way. And
because / love my puppy and am ten.
der of him, | love every other living
| thing
Willie's puppy had taught him to be
merciful to every dumb creature, and
SO had done good work on his little
! heart.
The child who is,,tender of dog, cat
or bird, will never grow up to beat
| horses. Let children have pets to love
and care for.-Methodist.
