“I cannot do much." said a. little star.

A child went merrily torth to play.
Buta thouuht. like a silver thread.
Kept winding in and out all dny
Through the happy golden hood-—
“Mother sold, 'Dorllng. do all that you can,
For you are it part of God's great plan.‘ “

Or the cloud with its rein cup full.

She was only a child at srhool.
But she thought, ” 'Tle a port of God's great

That even I should do oil that Icon."
So she helped another child along
When the Wily won rough to his feet.
And she song from her heart it little song
That we nil thought wondrous sweet.
And her tnthcrvn weary, toil worn man—-
Said, "I. too. will do the best that 1 con.”

THE RIVALS.
Through their own efforts Sung
Lumford and Matt King had stocked
a much. The ranch was small, but
their cattle were choice, and their
grass and water were of the best; be-
sides, they were hurdles, and their
expenses for hire worn very small,
which increased their income consid-
ornbly.
At- tho time of which we write 50
miles in every direction from where
one lived was called a neighborhood
in Texas. There were some who in-
creased the distance to 75am] even
100 miles, but those were few, and
their ponies Wcro exceptionally good,
for the area of n ncighlmrhoal then
generally covered as much ground as
a. man could ride over in it day in one
direction without too much exertion.
The nearest neighbor to Song and
Matt livod ll) miles away across the
river, and there, it is unnecessary to
any, they were frequent visitors as

To this ridiculous Wish, which
would virtually break them up in
their business, Song assented.
"Ilnh, huh,” he said.
“I bet I'll have Nollie here with me
before there in another froehet in the
river,” cried Mutt.
“Me, too," said Sang.
“You?"

“Don‘t know. Thought I‘d ask

“You'll 506," he cried. “Banged il

“Why, the idea!” criod Mutt. “A

Sung was white in the face ms he
turned around and walked out of the
house. He went to the norm}, (sought
uhorso, saddled him and rode nwuy
toward the river.
Half an hour later Mutt also loft
the house on horseback, but bonded
farther up the river than Sang had
done.

which he proceeded to recoil care-
fully into two piles. When this was
done, he made one cud of the rope
first uncureiy around a tree and the
other around his body. Then he
picked up one pile of the rope and
hung it unrofully over his arm and
walked coolly into the water.
Straight out he swam, with the
sure strokoof on export and power-
ful swimmer, until the rope on the
bank had all run out. Then, coil by
coil, he let the rope on, his arm slip
off also, while the current carried
him downward toward the old snug

the rope remained upon his arm, he
reached it in safety.
