TRUE COURAGE.
A Thrilling Story of the Period in
Five Chapters.
CHAPTER |.

Coward. COwardly calf. Cry-babyr
These were the shouts that greeted
Willie Green, as he stood wiping the
blood from his lip which had been cut
from blow given by James Beans, the
rich 'squire's son.
"Why don't you pitch in and lick
him. asked Bill Jones, the school bully.
"Yo on are bigger'n him.
because my mother told me never to
fight" said Willie. "And, besides, did
not the teacher tell us at Sabbath school
that it was wicked, and that he who
conquered himself was the greatest
hero? | mean to be hero
CHAPTER II.
"Did | not do right, mother" asked
Willie Green.
GU did, my son., as she fOndly
wrapped two or three of his curls around
her worn and wasted hand. Besides, if
you had given way to your temper the
squire might have foreclOsed the mort
gage he holds on our little home and
turned us out adrift on the cold, cold
world. 1t is as much as | can do now
to meet the u per cent interest.
They wept in each others arms.
CHAPTER III.
Fire
The cry rang out on the still night
air, arousing the sleeping villagers to
action. The office of Squire Beans was
in flames.
Strong men threw water on the blaz-
ing building with pitchers, pals, tubs or
anything that came to hand And still
the flames arose.
MY safe! My safer shrieked the
squire. There are S11,OOO,OOO worth
Of securities in it. Am to be ruined"
"Nouse, squire" said one of the men.
That there safe weighs a thousand
pounds, and besides, it is red hot"
CHAPTER ".
"Stand back. If the men will not act,
let coward try
1t was the voice of Willie Green.
Willie Green, whom his thoughtless
schOolmates had called a coward be-
cause he had the moral courage to alb
stain from rude fisticuffs.
He rushed through the crowd into the
blazing building. In another moment
he returned with the great red-hot safe
in his arms and dropped it in a nearby
cistern. The squire's fortune was
saved
"My boy" said the squire, "none of
them Will call you coward now. James
my son. shake hands with true hero"
CHAPTER V.
Willie Green works for the squire
now He only has to work eighteen
hours a day after school and gets Sc
week. The squire has reduced the in
terest on Mrs. Green's mortgage to liz
per cent. And even Bill Jones, the
school bully, realizes that one can be
brave without being brute.
