"I brought the pail and the dipper too, And so it was that the water fluty All over the flames and quenched them quite." A. mist came over the father's sight, A mist of pride and of righteous joy, As he turned at last to his youngest boy - A gleeful urchin scams three years old, With his dimpling cheeks and his hair of gold. "Come Artie, I'm sure you wore'nt afraid, Now tell mein what way you tried to aid This light with the fire." "To small am 1," Artie replied, with a half -drawn sigh, "To fetch line Jemmy, and work Lilco Tom ; So 1: atoocl jest here for a minute dumb, Because, papa, I teas frightened some ; But I prayed, 'Ont Bather ; and thon- and then I shouted as lona as I could, 'Amen'."
