"Why, I began at, that end," ans-

first into the nearest corner." --
"But is it necessary they should all
go to that particular place?" asked
the neighbor.
I never thought of that," said Tim;
"but, it seems to me they ought to go
there,"..
"Then why not wheel them from

a big job• to carry them ai;•,"
"Why, I bought that, wheelbarrow

"And 'do you never expect to use

neighbor.
"Never thought of ,that," answered.
Tint. "Might, perhaps, but'I began
by carrying the stones, and I must
keep it up, I guess," and off he moved
toward the distant stone -pile.
Tim harnessed his two old horses
one morning and went, as' was his
wont, to the mountains for firewood.
During the day, a -heavy. rain -storm
came sweeping down from the north,
swelling -the streams so that, by
means of their added strength, they
tore away, bridges : and dams, 'and
spread themselves, out in a freshet.
One of :these str'lams Tim• had been

Late in the afternoonofday the of

shuffling about his cabin with an eye
