HARRY THE LITTLE BoATMAN.-
Harry Wilson was born on the sea-
side at fishing village near the
mouth Of large river. He grew up
almost as much on the water as on
the land. He could swim almost as
soon as be could walk and could use
an oar almost before he was strong
enough to lift one from the ground.
This was fine as play, but one day
there was gloom in the little fisher.
mans cabin. All were sleeping
Harry's good brave father was dead,
and he was left alone with his poor
mother.
When the funeral was over and af-
fairs were settled up, the share IN the
fishing smack was sold and every
thing that the widow could not use
for her support.
They were going to sell good
boat, but when this was talked of,
Harry step ed up.
Now, here says he i am a
little chap, I know and am not very
strong, but I must do something to
help mother and want that boat
What can you do with it?'
why, there Is no one here to carry
people across and lots Of people come
and have to wait an hour or more till
some has time to carry them over.
But you couldn't row them
Cant |, indeed? Why, this week
| have run at least ten miles trying
to hunt up old Jake to row folks
over; so yesterday, instead o! vast
ing my time, l pulled off my cap
mighty polite to a gentleman and
asked him to step into our boat.
why, you didn't undertake to
row him across, did you?'
Certainly and rowed him splen-
didly. He asked me lot Of ques.
tions and | told him all about US
He saw l was able to manage the
boat and gave me dollar, as he said,
to encourage me. l took Carlo along
for | thought if squall did come on
and l couldn't manage, his bark
would go further than my ball and il
l tumble over he'd pick me up
All agreed that Harry had the
courage and energy to get ahead and
every one knew he could manage a
boat 80 all summer long he was at
his post. lie fixed a white flag to a
pole at each side and when he was
wanted or the side on which he did
not happen to be, they raised the flag
and he was over like a rocket.
