AN ANECDOTE OF WASHIN G.
TONS BOYHOOD.

There is story told OF george
Washington's boyhood = unfortu-
nately there are not many stories
which is to the point. His father
had taken a great deal of pride in
his blooded horses, and his mother
afterward took great pains to keep
the stock pure. She had several
young horses that had not yet been
been broken, and one of them in
particular, sorrel, was extremely
spirited. No one had been able to
do anything with it, and it was pro-
nounced thoroughly vicious, as peo-
pie are apt to pronounce horses
which they have not learned to mas
ter. George was determined to ride
this colt, and told his companions
that If they would help him catch it,
he would ride and tame it.
Early in the morning they set out
for the pasture, where the boys man
aged to surround the sorrel and then
to put a bit into its mouth. Wash
ington sprang on its back, the boys
| dropped the bride, and away flew
the angry animal. Its rider at once
| began to command; the horse re-
sisted, backing about the field, rear
ing and plunging. The boys became
thoroughly alarmed, but Washington
kept his seat, never once losing his
self-control or his mastery of the
colt. The struggle was a sharp one;
when suddenly, as If determined to
rid itself of its rider, the creature
leaped into the air with tremen-
dous bound. 1t was its last. The
violence burst q blood-vcssel, and the
noble horse fell dead.
Before the boys could sufficiently
recover to consider how they should
eXtricate themselves from the scrape,
they were called to breakfast and
the mistress of the house knowing
that they had been in the fields, be-
gan to ask after her stock.
PRAY, young gentleman said
she, shave you seen my blooded
colts in your rambles? | hope they
are well taken care of. My favorite
| am told. is as large as his SIRE"
The boys looked at one another,
and no one liked TO speak. OF
course the mother repeated her ques-
ton.
The sorrel is dead, madam" said
her son. II killed him 20
And then he told the whole story.
They say that his mother flushed
with anger. as her son often used to,
and then, like him, controlled herself
and presently said, quietly:
1T is we'll; but while | regret the
loss of ny favorite. rejoice in my
son who always speaks the truth -

then step carefully upon the edge of
the bowl, and softly lap the thick,
rich cream with her naughty red
tongue.
One day, BERTHE was in the kitchen
when all at once he thought be heard
some little movement in the pantry.
He crept softly to the door, and
there was Kitty Gray just stepping
slyly upon the edge of the cream
bowl. Pretty soon she began lap
ping the yellow cream. BERTHE stole
noiselessly in and suddenly giving
Kitty a quick push, in she went,
head first, into the splashing cream.
She doundered about in great fright
and distress, scrambling and scratch
ing, trying to get out. But the bowl
was deep and the glazed sides so
slippery, poor Kitty might have
drowned had she fallen in accident
ally.
BERTHE let her stay until he thought
it cruel to keep her there any longer,
then he helped her out.
Poor Kitty ran dripping away, and
hid somewhere until it was dark.
1t was not very kind for BERTHE to
do as he did, but when he promptly
told his mamma the truth about it,
she said she would forgive him if
Kitty was cured of her naughty habit
and she was. From that day,
Kitty Gray was never seen near the
cream bowl again. In fact, she
would run away and hide if any one
was seen approaching with the bowl
in hand.

THE BOY GRANT.


If you would know Grant, the man,
the civil ruler, the representative
| American, the illustrious captain,
study the boy Grant. The man was
simply the boy upon a broader field.
The great traits of character, which
gave him renown in his own and
other lands, were either birth-marks,
or early growths. Notice few of
them. Grants nature was of oak, not
of willow. He was resolute of pur-
pose, always said, II can;" never
81 can't In his makeup there was
no padding. no limp. He dared to
stand for the right and the truth.
Like all true boys he knew how to
say NO." and stick to it. Grant
possessed great physical and moral
courage.
Grant had great self control.
Greater than the conquest of cities
or the ruling the Republic was the
rule over his own spirit. The great
passions which famed through his
soul, were bitted and bridled. He
detested profanity, which is always
the sign of weak, as well as a
perverted, nature.
Grant when boy hated fibs: and
learned to be exact in his statements.
His father once sent him to buy a
horse, authorizing him to offer $50,
and if that should be refused, $50.
He told the owner what his father
had said. Of course the owner ex.
pected 10 get $50 for his horse, but
the boy refused to give more than
$50, and obtained the horse for that
sum.
In his temperament, tastes, train
ing and convictions, Grant was a re-
ligious man. To all youth his adj
vice was, "Hold fast to the Bible as
the sheet anchor of your liberties
write it's precepts in your hearts and
practice them in your lives" Grant
honored the Lords Day. Innocent
pastimes and pleasure drives were
not INDUCED during its sacred hours.
From a child he was a constant and
reverent attendant upon religious
services.
Grant tenderly cherished the asso
Citations of home. His father and
mother he never ceased to reverence
and love. When president, he val
ued their regard and approval. As
children came along he took them t.
his heart. His sons were his com
panions and his daughter the idol o.
the house. For the wife of his you'll
and manhood he cherished a pure
tender and undying affection. Wher
he was in Pompeii, the guide Offered
to admit him to building withou
the ladies'. Il am much obliged t.
you," he said, "but | must respect
, fully inform you that l never g

Such was Americas most honoreC
citizen and greatest soldier. who, OF

laid by his side in the great sleep o
death.

HOW KITTY WAS CURED.

FOOLISH little Kitty Gray would
jump up to the great earthern bowl
TO steal drunk, although BERTHE kept
her saucer well supplied with good
sweet milk
But Kitty thought it nice to be a
little thief and help herself to little
sips of cream flom the pantry. Sew
eral times she had been caught and
punished for the troublesome trick.
but it seemed TO make no difference f:
she would first jump to the shelf.

TAD LINCOLN'S FAST-DAY
PICNIC.

If ever there was boy in danger
of being "spoiled," it was the
youngest son Of President Lincoln.
He was always boisterous, rolicking
boy. Great was Tad's curiosity, in
1864, to know what was meant by
the presidents proclamation for
day of fasting and prayer. His in
quiries were not satisfactorily an
swered, but from the servants he
learned, to his great dismay, that
there would be nothing eaten in the
white house from sunrise to sunset
on Fast Day. The boy, who was
blessed with a vigorous appetite,
took measures 10 escape from the
rigors of the day. 1t happened that,
just before Fast Day came, the fam
lily carriages was brought out of its
house to be cleaned and put in order.
Tad stood by, with feelings of alarm
while a general overhauling of the
vehicle went on, the coachman dust
ing, rubbing, and pulling things
about, quite unconscious of Tad's
anxious watch on the proceedings.
Pretty soon, drawing out queer
looking bundle from one of the box
es under the seat, the man brought
to light part of loaf of bread,
some bits of cold meat, and various
other fragments of food from the
larder. Tad, now ready to burst
with anger and disappointment,
cried, go! o! give that up, l say
That's my Fast Day picnic" The
poor lad, from dread of going hun.
cry, had cautiously hidden, from
day to day, portion of food against
the day of fasting, and had stood
by while his hoard was in danger
hoping that it might escape the eyes
of the servants.-St. Nicholas.
