Martin now belonged to May. and

Walter was a quiet thought
full boy, a deliberate thinker, eau
tious in his movements-safe.
Mark, his brother, was precisely
the opposite. He was harum-scar-
um1 impulsive, careless. too quick
In his acknowledgements.
Their mother was fond OF tell.
ing her friends how confident she
was in Walters judgment-that
she could trust him anywhere and
never worried about his getting
hurt.
Likewise, she voiced her fears
about Mark. Every day when he
went out she was in terror lest he
be brought in dead. Hes always
getting into trouble because he
knows no fear; going about with
bumps and bruises because he's 80
venturesome. He will try anything
once. 1t Is a wonder he hasn't
been killed long before this"
Then she would add, II don't
worry when Walter Is with him.
He acts as brake. know he
will keep Mark safe"
And her friends, knowing the
two brothers, nodded wisely and
agreed.

One afternoon they went SWIM

Walter O. little. Both boys stepped
into a hole and Walter went into
q panic. He claimed later 1t was

One day they were crossing a
railroad bridge to fish. Walter was
incoming over the edge looking for
turtles on the bank, when Marks
quick ear heard something. He
pulled his brother over on the
other track and In a few seconds
the express went by.

Mark. But we'd better hurry.

at the house and asked that the
boys be allowed to take It home,

and asked particularly that Wal

1t may be comfort to some
mothers to know. that the child
who risks the most, very often has
the alertest mind, the keenest at
tention, and the coolest control
over circumstances while his more
phlegmatic brother may go to piec-
es when the unusual happens. The
eye that perceives an emergency
and the courage and quick judy
ment to meet 1t when It comes are
worth any amount Of caution.
