GETTING EVEN.
"I'll get even with him. You see
if I don't"

"In get even with him. You see
if I don't"
Uncle John looked up from the
article he was writing. who is it
you are going to get even with?"
he inquired, smiling quizzically into
Fred's frowning face.
cts Frank Lane. He's always
playing some low-down trick on us
because we won't let him play on
our nine. We were using my ball
today-it was a dollar ball too
and Harry batted it clear yer the
fence. Frank got it and threw it as
far as he could out into the lake."
Fred's eyes were flashing.
"And you want to get even with
such a flow-down trick as you rightly
call it," Uncle John said slowly.
Il will, too. / know what l can
do Uncle Johns pencil had been
moving swiftly over the paper as they
talked. Now he motioned Fred to
step nearer. A few lines had marked
out a high road and near it a low,
marshy ground. "If a fellow does
%low-down tricks he lowers himself.
He must be down here" Uncle John
explained, making a mark for a figure
down on the marshy ground. "Now
if you are up here, what will you have
to do to get ven with him?"
Fred's face grew thoughtful as
he studied the sketch. II suppose
I'd have to get down as low as he
is" he said slowly.
Exactly. Now tell me, wasn't
that just what you intended to do
TO do something just as mean to
him as he had done to you; in other
words, to lower yourself to his level?'
yes, it was" Fred admitted.
Uncle John said no more He had
a way of leaving a fellow to think
things out for himself.
Two days later Fred came in, his
eyes dancing. "Well, Uncle John,
I got even with Frank" he announced.
Uncle John looked surprised. He
turned sharp eyes on the laughing
face.
1T was just this way, you see; I
got to thinking how I'd feel if the
boys wouldn't let me play on the
nine, and / made up my mipd I'd
feel just as Frank did. And likely
as not I'd throw their old ball away
too. So day before yesterday / told
Frank he could play in my place.
He wasn't going to do it, at first:
he seemed to think it was some kind
of a trick. Then he went into it, and
say, but he can play ball; he made
more home runs than anybody else.
Charlie Strong is going away next
week, and Frank is to have his place.
But what | started to tell you was that
Frank came and brought me a new
ball tonight-just like the other onex
He went out into Mr.. Nelson's fed
and pulled mustard i'm the hot sun all
day yesterday to get the money to
pay for it. So it seems to me he is
UP on the level again, and, 1 tell you,
it feels a lot better than getting even
the other way
Uncle Johns face had lighted up.
7 should say it was better. Shake
hands on that, young man. I'm proud
to shake hands with you"

While she was inquirng, Teddy
Ryan's brother came looking for
Teddy. Teddy, Will and Tim always
went around together.
When Mrs. Green heard that the
boys had gone to the river she be-
came much alarmed and ran home to
see if Will had come while she was
at Mrs. Foley's house.
On the way she saw a group of
people talking excitedly, and as she
drew near she felt sure that some ac-
cident had occurred. What is it?"
she cried.
No one spoke; she ran towards
the river and there on the bank she
saw Teddy Ryan. Doctors had ar
rived and were doing all in their
power to bring the two lads back to
life, but to no avail.
The ice near the shore was thin
and the boys, unaware of their dan
ger, skated over the thin ice which
was not strong enough to bear their
weight, and both went down. Their
companions did not miss them for
some minutes, and when they did the
boys had disappeared under the ice.
Tim Foley was heart-broken over
the sad death of his two friends and

full to his Lenten promise he too
might have met the same fate.

TINS PROMISE.

On Ash Wednesday every boy in
ST.. Patrick's school promised to prac-
tice some particular virtue and make
some little sacrifice during Lent. Tim
Foley was one of the most popular
boys in this class, he vas the leader
in every game and always played
fair.
Tim had one fault-he did not al
ways choose to obey; he liked to
follow his own inclinations. When
leaving for school in the morning if
his mother said, Come directly
home from school," Tim did not al
ways come directly home, if the boys
wanted a game of chase Tim would
sure forget to go home.
Sometimes Tins father would say,
Tim, bring up the wood before you
go to school," and Tim would say,
Il will after school," and then he
might forget all about the wood. Tim
didn't intend to disobey but he just
didn't think.
When the boys in his school were
making their Lenten promises Tim,
knowing his failing, wrote on his
paper, Il promise to obey promptly"
One day when the skating looked
good on the river the boys planned
to go after school.
When Tim was leaving home that
morning his mother said, Tim, take
this bundle to your grandmother's
after school, then come straight
home for I want you to take care of
the house. I am going to meet your
father down town"
When school was dismissed the
boys came for Tim to join them.
Il can't co. said Tim, Il must 90
on an errand to my grandmother's.'
"Oh, come with us first, then go to
your grandmother's, your mother will
never know. The ice will break up
in the river in a few days and then
perhaps there will be no skating for
another year.
@But | mind" said Tim, Il won't
break my promise and he ran of
fearing that if he remained he would
give in.
That night after supper Will
Green's mother came to the Foley
home looking for Will; he had not
come home from school, and as he
was Tins particular chum she
