A JIOMI'.XT OP PASSI0S.
Mr. Ellis was a man of kind anil ten
dor fcclinp, butqulck tompcrcdand 1m
pulslvo. Ho had a son, ten years old,
n bright, handsome, Rcnerous-heartcd
boy, who Inherited his father's Iraimls
ivo character. A quick tempered father
anil a thoughtless, imnulslvo boy aro
apt to get Into sharp collision nt times,
and so it was with .Mr. Ellis and his
lltllo son. Tho father'd commands
wcro not always obeyed, and ns tho
rather had somo strict notions in regard
to obedienco, punishments jarred amid
tho household harmonics rather moro
frequently than a wlso regard tojustico
nnd Immunity would havo approved.
Iho hasty temper and forgono conclu

oftcner cruel than reformatory. A sin
glo instanco will Illustrate our meaning,
and that Is tho story wo wish to rolato.
It was a pleasant summer afternoon,
and Wlllio Ellis camo out from his
mother's hands, clad all In whlto linen,
and looking ns sweet and puro as intiO'
conco itself. Tho houso stood only
short distance from a river, on tho banks
of which tho boy was fond of sporting,
nud in tho oo.o of which lio sometimes
soiled his garments In a sad way, much
to tho discomfort of lilnnelf nnd his
mother.
'Willie," said Mr. Ellis, ns tho boy
passed out, " whero aro you going ?"
"Only to play," answered tho roguish
mouth.
" To play whoro '("
" With Kddlu Wheeler, down nt his
house."
" Did your mother say you might go
thero?"
"Yes, sir."
"Very well: all right then. But
mind 0110 thing you nro not to go down
to tho river. Yesterday you camo homo
with your clothes soiled nnd wet.
won't havo that ngain. So remember
what I'vo said don't go to tho river."
" Not If Mr. Wheeler lets Eddlo go'."
Thero was a half-pleading look in tho
young, bright faco.
"No," was tho Imperative) answer
"I'vo said don't go to tho rivor, nnd if
you disobey mo I'll punish you to
vercly."
Wlllio's step had lost somo of Its airy
lightness when ho moved on ngoln.
" Mind that you don't forgot I" called
tho father after him.
Tho boy heard but did not look back
or make nny responso, which n llttlo
annoyed Mr. Elll', who had grown very
sonsltlvo on tho scoro of strict obed
ienco.
" It wouldn't at all surprise mo," ho
said to himself, "if ho wcro to como
homo In an hour all covered over with
river mud. Ho is so thoughtless, or
self willed I hardly know which. Hut
children must bo made to oboy. That's
tho discipline to cnforco,nt all ha.z.trds;
and If ho disobeys mo this time, ho will
havo causn to remember It as long as ho
lives."
Something had grown wrong with
Mr. Ellis, nnd ho was iu nstorncr mood
than usual. Moods of mind, rather,
than it senso of Justice, oftenest lntlu
enco our conduct with rcfereneo lo oth
ers, Wo act from it Btato of feeling
moro frequently than from considera
tions of right.
Mr. Ellis went away from homo soon
after and returned in an hour. As ho
stood nt tho door, and glanced nround
for a moment beforo entering, ho saw
Wlllio Iu n shocking plight, wet and
boiled from head to foot, slink through
tho garden gate. Tho boy noticed him
and was endeavoring to get into Iho
houso without being seen, Hut at tho
door whero ho hoped to enter unobserv
ed, ho encountered a stern nud angry
fuco. A fow quick strldos had brought
his father thero.
" So you havo been to tho river, after
all that I said."
Tho boy lifted n palo ftico and fright
ened eyes.
" Didn't I toll you not to gu to tho
river?"
A vico-llko grip was already on his
llttlo arm.
" Ye, bIt," camo through quls'crlng
lips.
" And you went for ull I"
" lltit, father "
" Not a wortl sir, I told you not to go
to tho river, didn't I?"
"Eddlo Wheeler " The poor child
tried to oxpliiln.
" I don't want to hear about Eddlo
Wheeler. Ho can't excu.so your tllso
hcillcnco. Come, sir, we'll settle this
business I" nnd lio dragged tho whlto
faced hoy after him, up stairs, to tho
garret, and taking down a rod, Bwung
it In tho nlr above his head.
" O father I Don't 1 Let mo tell you!"
A look, almost Ilka despair, was In
tho boy's faco. Mr. Ellis remembers it
lo this day ; nnd will remember it to
tho day of his death.
" 1 don t wish to hear any excuses,"
was replied, as tho lltho rod camo down
upon llio shrinking child, with a stroko
that mado every ncrvo quiver with
pain.
" O father 1"
Onco moro tho intld, nppeallng look,
so full of agony, was lifted to tho stern
faco nbovo him, but lifted in vain. A
second cruel stroko foil, and then a rain
of strokes, until tho father's ecuso of
pity, intruding between nngcr and un
forgiving Justlco stayed his arm. Ho
went down stairs, left tho boy lying in
tho inldtllo of tho floor, ns lie had drop
ped from his hand motionless ns If ho
were extinct. Ho met tho palo Buffer
ing mother below sho loved thn boy
tenderly, and felt every smarting blow
hut ho passed her without u word.
Sho had scon Wlllio ns ho encountered
his father nt tho door, and understood
tho punishment.
Mr. Ellis went out Into tho porch to
brealho tho frco nlr, nnd cool tho sud
den excitement under which lio Intel
been laboring. As ho shut tho iloor
behind him, in a kind of Instinctive
effort to separate himself from a painful
scene, ho stood faco to faco with Mr,
Wheeler. A hand grasped his hand In
a quick, strong pressure.
'It was n bravo actl He's a noble
boy I Whero Is ho?"
"I don't understand you," said Mr.
Ellis, looking bowildercd.
"Didn't he tell you?"
"Tell mo what?"
"How ho sprang into tho river nnd
saved my llttlo Eddio's life?"
" I heard nothing of it."
There wns a choking sensation In Mr,
Ellis' throat -his voico was faint nnd
husky.
" Aud ho didn't tell you ! Hravo,
uoblo boy I I fo camo over to play with
Kddle; and Kddlo wanted to go down
to tho river j but Wlllio said ho couldn't
go to tho river. I hoard Eddlo coaxing
him, but Wlllio was firm, becauso ho
said you had told him not to go. 1 was
so pleased with His obedient spirit,
Well, I lost Bight of them after n llttlo
while, but, as I learn, Eddlo would go
down to tho river, and your boy follow
cd him, but kept u distance from tho
water. Instoad of climbing over tho
logs and barrols, or getting into tho
boats, ho sat by himself n way off.
Then, sir, my Eddie, in leaning over
tho river slipped and fell In ; nnd your
boy. Instead of running away, half
frightened out of his scnsc-i, as most
children of his age would havo dono
sprang down to tho wharf, aud into tho
wnter after Eddlo. I wonder they wero
not botii drowned. It was only in Ciod
mercy thnt they wero davod. When
tho man who saw what happened got
to tho place, nnd looked over tho dock
into tho water, tlrcro was Willie, hold
ing on t a ring in ono of tho logs with
ids right hand, nud clinging to Eddie
with ids left. Such courago and prcs
enco of mind in a boy almost surpass
belief I Whero Is ho '.' Ho ran off homo
as soon as tho man lifted lilm from the
wator. I must thank him for this nohlo
act."
At this moment, tho door opening
Into llio porch swung back, nnd the
whlto faco of Mrs. Ellis looked out.
"O husband!" sho o.xclamcd in
voico of terror, "como to Wlllio 1
quick I"
Mr. Ellis followed Ills wife, and tho
neighbor hurried after them. Tho
mother had found her boy lying insen
blblo on tho garret lloor, and lifting him
in her arms, had brought him dow
stairs, and laid him, In his wet clothes,
upon her own bed.
As Mr. Ellis camo into tho room, lio
miw tho deathly faco turned toward tho
door. Tho sjght seemed to blast his
vision. Ho struck his hands together,
shut his eyes, and stood still suddenly.
"Will you run for tho doctor?" said
Mrs. Ellis to tho neighbor.
Tho neighbor did, literally, as tho
mother said ; ho ran nil tho way to tho
physician's rosidenco.
Uy tho timo tho doctor arrivod, Wil
lie's wet garments had been removed,
Honsked but few questions as to tho
meaning of tho boy's condition. Mr.
Whoolcr had told of his heroic conduct,
and tho lnferonco wns that thero had
been an over-oxcltcmcnt of the brnln,
leading to suspendod animation, Still
tho caso puzzled him.
"Ho inayliuvo been hurt Jumping
from tho wharf," suggested Mr.
Wheeler.
Tho doctor on this hint examined tho
body.
" What Is this?" ho asked its long,
purplo stripe, lying across tho back nnd
shoulders met his eyes, "And this?"
ho added ns ho camo upon another.
Mr. Kills turned his faco away, nick
at heart ; ho could not follow tho doc'
tor's oyes.
" Ho may havo been hurt internally,"
Bald tho doctor, drawing back tho
clothes, and uncovering tho fair body,
that wrs marked with cruel lines.
Ho was right In that, but tho injury
was deeper than ho Imagined. It
was tho boy's tender Bplrlt which had
been hurt.
" This will not last, doctor?"
Tho palo Hps of Mr. Kills quivered ns
o asked tho question.
" I think not," was tho uncurtain an
swer.
It did not last. Thero ramo soon nftcr
Blgtis of returning vitality. Tho neigh
bors went homo tho doctor retired
nml tho father and mother wcro left
nlono with tho brave-heartctl boy, who
had been wronged so cruelly. Mr. Kills
could not bear to look at him. Ho felt
twlco over, upon his own heart, tho
lows ho had given. Thero was such
rob u I; o in tho palo faco and filuit eyes of
tho hoy, who had not yet spoken, or
recognized any one, that ho could not
stay in tho chamber. Every moment
o looked to eeo thoeyes open, nnd how
could lio meet their ga7.o.
Mr. Kills had been away from tho
room for only a few minutes, when tho
hushed voico of his wife calling lo him
reached his cats. Ho camo to whero
sho stood, half-way down slalrs.
Has lio recovered?" asked tho
father.
" Yes. - Ho opened his eyes and look
ed nil around tho room, almost as soon
ns you went out. Then ho shut them
again, ns If to think ; nntl then looking
p, after a llttlo while, said, 'Whero is
father?' I told him you wero down
stairs, and ho said, 'Won't you call
him?'"
Mr. Kills went up to meet his child
in n stnlo of mental depression ill 111 cult
to bo conceived. Ho could havo faced
almost any imagined danger with less
of shrinking than ho now felt in going
Into tho presence of Wlllio. Hut thero
was no holding back. What did tho
boy want ? What had ho to say ? How
would horccclvohlm? These questions
crowded and bowildercd his mind. Ho
pushed open tho tloor softly and went
i.
Tho boy's waiting ears had heard tho
almost noiseless feet approaching, and
his eyes wero upon tho entrance. Mr.
illls did not bpeak, but eamo over to
the bed.
O father 1 I didn't do wrong 1
wasn't disobedient," said Willie, mak
ing nn effort to rise from his pillow, nnd
speaking with eagerness. "I tried to
tell you, but you wouldn't hear "
Ho was going on, but his father caught
dm up, nnd as ho drew him tightly to
his heart, answered, " I know it all, my
brave, bravo boy!"
Then Willie's arms found their way
(o his father's neck, und clung thero
tightly. His cheeks, when his head
went back upon tho pillow from which
ho had nrlsen, wcro wet, but not with
his own tears.
