SHORT ON BROTHERLY LOVE
Luckily William Had Grace Enough to
Remember That Henry
Was Sacred.

William was not kind to his small
brother Henry; in fact, he looked upon
him as nuisance, scourge sent from
heaven to try his spirit and spoil his
fun. Especially that day was Henry
a thorn in the older boys flesh. In
his efforts to rid himself of his burden,
William resorted to all the methods
the mind of youth suggested. but in
vain. Henry continued to stick as
close, if not closer, than brother
William" finally said the boys
father. who had witnessed, unheard,
the final paroxysm of the unequal
struggle, you should be ashamed of
yourself to treat your little brother in
that way! He ought to be sacred to
you"
William made no reply; but short
ly afterward, believing himself to be
free Of surveillance, he was heard to
address Henry thus: Always taggin'
after me! II you weren't sacred I'd
break your blamed face for you'll

time. From the window of the draw
ing room he painted one of his very
few landscapes. And what wonder
full view 1t is which is commanded by
lhe terrace! The beautiful River
Thames is seen like a CLEAN of silver
descending through the rich landscape
and curving round the foot OF the hill
Its banks thickly wooded. Ham
House, the historic seat of the earl
of Dysart, Petersham, and Twicken
ham are in sight, and far away in the
dim distance rises the round tower OF
lordly Windsor, and con the left the
outline of the Surrey hills. The poet
Thompson described this scene in
his seasons" when the beauties OF
Summer" inspired his pen:
Here let us sweep
The boundless landscape; now the rap
Exulting, swift to huge Augusta send;
Now &c. the sister hills that skirt her
To lofty Harrow now, and now to where
Majestic Windsor lifts his princely brow
In lovely contrast to this glorious view.
He goes on to describe where
"silver Thames first rural grows"
Hams empowering walks" and the
matchless vale of the great river
Pope lay i'll ON his deathbed when
Thompson wrote, and so he points to
the Muses. haunt, Twitnam's bowers.
and implores to heaven the healing OF
his friend, and then proceeds to re-
count the other beauties of the scene.
Another great writer has told us
about them. Sir Walter Scott in the
Heart of Midlothian" makes the
duke of Argyll and Jeanne Deans
alight from the carriage to contem-
plate the wondrous landscape. We
need not retell the grand description
painted by the great writer; but when
the duke tells Jeanne that there is
nothing like in Scotland, Jeanne re-
marks on the fine breed of cows, but
adds: 81 like just as weell to look at
the craigs of Arthur's Seat and the
sea coming in ayont them. as at a.

do for "auld Scotland" to be beaten.
