Literal Obedience.

A young teacher who was graduate
ed from the normal school last June
was asked one day last week to SUBJ
stitute a higher grade than her own.
She was a little nervous over the
temporary promotion, aud was anx-
iOus that everything should 60 off in
the usual good order. While instruct.
ing the class in composition she said;
"Now, children, don't attempt any
flights of fancy. Don't try to initiate
the things you have heard, but just be
yourselves and write what is really in
you"
AS a result Of this advice one little
boy turned in the following compost
ton:

fancy; I'm just goin' to write what's

Annie had ceased pulling. She
stood with her head meekly bent, wait
ing for the storm to descend.
The master looked at her for long
minute. He brushed a quick hand
before his eyes and looked again. The
rage had gone from his face. No one
in the school had ever seen it look
like this.
The silence deepened.
"Take your seats, he said quietly,
he stepped to the table and touched
the little bell. Dennis, from beneath,
sped swiftly to his seat.
At second tap of the bell, the
class in reading rose from their seats
and fled silently to their places before
him.

the boy in front little push.
"G'on yerself''
Hurry upl Well be late.
The boy hesitated. Then, with a
little run, his feet touched the bridge
and sped swiftly across. He swayed
tightly to the motion, AID barely
touched the hand rope swinging be-
side him.
With a whoop and chase, they
followed, big and little, speeding
across, one at time, and landing with
flying leap.
"Come on, Annie"
"Oh, leave him there !"
"Hes baby Come on T.
Tommy pumped himself on the
ground, his legs extended, and raised
a round wall to heaven.
The group across the river regard
ed him with eager disgust.
"Come along!" Hell come if you
leave him p Hurry upl"
She placed one foot on the bridge
and glanced down at Tommy. Then
she looked at the bridge.
The group waited. Coward your
self, Annie Day" called Mary Bell,
tauntingly.
"'Fraid cat 'Fraid cat !"

Her voice was high and squeakipg,
and her small face was full OF anxious
care.
ooh, leave EN- alonel" "Come
on !" "There's the bell !" They
turned with a wild scramble. Their
voices foatel back as they ran, and
grew fainter and fainter. The air was
very still. The boom of the mill on
the other side of the island hummed
softly in it. A sparrow hopping in a
bush by the water looked up at the
pair, gave little trill and hoped
away.
She bent over him sternly. "Get
up, Tommy; I'm going back round
the island with you. Now don't cry
any more.
Tommy's mouth, which had opened
to emit fresh sound, closed suddenly
He snuffed and looked at her resent
fully and hopefully.
She wiped his eyes on her apron
and held out her hand. Come along,
she said swiftly.
They disappeared through the
bushes, Tommy's fat legs wagging fast.
The gray stockings and flying shoe
strings, seen from behind, had an air
of renewed courage.

DON'T GIVE UP.

If you've tried and have not won,
Never stop for crying;
All that's great and good is done
Just by patient-trying.

Still their wings grow stronger;
And the next time they can keep
Up little longer.

Many blast that bowed her,

Who the more will prize you

The door opened timidly. 1t was
Annie Day-ffteen minutes late
She squeaked respectfully and hur-
ried to her seat.
The first class in arithmetic was re-
citing. The master looked up with a
frown.
"Wait I" he said sharply to the boy
who was reciting.
The boy paused.
A hush was on the room.
Annie squeaked miserably through
it, the freckles on her small face lost
in the rush of color, and her little
turned.up nose, with its anxious, dep
recating look, glancing hastily now
and then at the masters face.
The blue eye was fixed on her stern
ly. When she had subsided into the
front seat and bad bent her face to the
desk to look for her book and slate, the
eye turned again to the class.
$50 on, be said shortly.
The silence clicked, and the boy
went on reciting.
The ciass in arithmetic was dismissed
and the second reading class had been
called. They sat erect in their seats,
their books clasped, motionless, in
front Of them, waiting the signal.
Into the silence fell muffied clat-
ter and a crash-Dennis Quinn had
tipped over his dinner-pail. He did
it once a week on an average. His
feet were large. His scared face dis
appeared uuder the desk.
The master glared. Come here,
| QUINN" he said, sharply.
There was no response. Dennis
| under cover of the desk, was crap
pling with a rolling tea-cup, cold
boiled cabbage, and doughnuts and
pie; and he was deaf to the world
above him.
A b;g svift hand reached down
and seized him by the collar, throwing
him half across the open space in front
of the school.
He stood quavering, the broken cup
in one hand and the sugared dough
nut in the other.
The masters face was white with
rage. "I'll teach you to come when
call I" he said between his teeth. He
reached out and seized the collar
again. The boys teeth chartered and

There be goes
Hurry up, Annie J!
"Well be late !"
Lets &c cross the island"
The group broke into swift, jog
ging run. Books and states and din
ner-pails bumped in swinging hands,
and painting breaths escaped. Hur-
rying feet ratified the loose boards Of
the bridge and thudded on the soft
grass as they crossed the island.
Tommy Day was last in the race.
He had round face and fat legs, and
his little brown trousers were too
wide. He numbered along, holding
fast to his sisters hand, and wailing
now and then at the flying group.
They gave no heed till the other bridge
was reached. There they paused
glancing at it little doubtfully and
nudging each other to go on.
Two signs were across it: danger

WHEN GREEK MEETS GREEK.
John Walsh had red hair.

If his hair had been brown, this sto-
ry would probably never have been
written. He had, besides the hair,
a pair of blue eyes and quick tenn
per. An Irish ancestor who had come
to America had brought with him a
spade and brogue, keen wit, the
red hair, and the quick temper. The
spade and the brogue had disap-
peared; but the temper and the hair
survived. Sometimes they skipped
generation, and flashed out in the next
one keener than before.
John Walsh had them. He was
teacher in the Burleighville High
School. There were three rooms in
the school building. The room in
which John Walsh taught was called
the high-school room. The highest
class in it was fitting for college; and
the lowest---in which were Annie Day,
and Dennis Quinn, and Edgar Button
was studying decimals. They were
in the upper room only because the
lower rooms had overfowed and float
ed them up to the front seats in the
high-school room. They sat there
very much awed by their fate, and
thankful when the fash Of John
Walsh's blue eyes overleaped them
and landed on the big boys in the
back seats
The masters temper was no secret.
GAS quick as John Walsh's temper
was town proverb. 1t had been the
same in the boy as in the man. AS
pupil, he had made his way through
the school flashing and fighting and
excelling. There had never been
such scholar in Burleighville. The
town was secretly proud oil him; and
when, on his return from college, be
had applied for the position Of teacher
in the high school to help him carry
on his law studies, they had welcomed
him back. The life of the school had
quickened and broadened. He i'm
parted enthusiasm and knowledge in
the same breath. Every pupil in the
room became alert. They loved the
fiery impetuous master and the fact
that they stood little in awe Of him
did not diminish zeal.
1t was the last week of the spring
term. John Walsh had been teaching
in Burleighville two years. He was
planning to go, at the end of the term,
to study with the well-known firm Of
Marsh g. Blackwell, of Boston. His
old mother was comfortably provided
for, and there was money ahead to
carry him through. The last weeks
of the term promised to be balmy-
indoors and out.
Three weeks before the end Of the
term a change had come. Word had
been received from March g. Blake
well that there was doubt Of their be-
ing able to receive law student this
year. They would write again in two
weeks. Meanwhile they remained
regretfully, ETC."
The sky clouded in the Burleigh-
vile high school. Signs of a storm
were on the horizon. The school took
in sail and steered very close to the
wind, with cautious glances at the
blue eyes flashing and darting
above them. The front seats quaked
and worked on decimals.
