What a Child Can Do.

A group of children were playing
one Saturday afternoon, when they
heard the sound of angry words from
the street, and the harsh sound of a
whip striking horses back.
They ran to the fence and saw a
man, with large load Of coal drawn
by one horse, trying to back the horse
so as to dump the coal into the coal
hole in the sidewalk.
The horse tried hard, but the load
was heavy, the ground Was muddy,
and the wheels refused to move to-
wards the curb.
The driver fumed and swore, and
again he struck the horse with all the
force of his strong arm.
Suddenly one of the children rushed
out into the street.
Don't strike the poor Aorse," he
pleaded. I'VE would rather carry all
your load of coal to the sidewalk than
see you do that"
The man stopped and looked at the
boy.
perhaps 1 was mite hard on him, .
he said.
"a lift on the wheel might help"
said young man, who was passing.
Other men were near at hand, and
with little difficulty, as they put their
shoulders to the wheels. the heavy cart
was backed to the desired place.
The child stopped only long enough
to thank the driver for not beating
his horse any more, aMA then ran
back to play; but think that man was
more kind to horses after that. Don't
you?

Do Your Best.


A clever-looking lad was sweeping the
floor. We spoke to him and said:
"Glad you have this place, and hope
you will soon get something better. .
His answer disappointed US. He re-
piled sullenly: "There is nothing in
this" We have friend who is a
millionaire. He began ~ career in
business by sweeping cat q store, and
we had him in mind when we spoke
to this young man. He has often told
us that he tried to sweep the floor with
as much pains as If he were the head
clerk, and had charge of everything.
In other words, he did His best as a
fioor-sweeper, and he soon got some
thing better The boy who says
There is nothing in this" will likely
strike nothing better. Employers have
keen eyes. Sometimes a boy is given
such job to see what there is in him.
If he is efficient, bright, alert, and dis
plays good qualities in his lowly
place, he is apt to find an opening just
above him. Do your best, whether it
is sweeping the floor, backing shoes,
selling papers, shovelling in coal, run
ming an engine, planning campaign,
or ruling an empire. Always and
everywhere do your level best. Make
a habit Of it. It will hs worth more
than the gold Of Klondyke. If you
despise the day of small things, Tiers
will never come day Of large things.
