My Little Man.
]jy i,n\:s 12. ui:xi'oko.
I know a little hero, whose face is brown with tan, ButUhrough it shines the spirit that makes the boy a man. A sphit stiong and sturdy, a will to win its way ; It does me ijood to loojc at him and watch him day by day. He tells me that his mother is poor and sews for hi cad. " ShcSsuch a dcitr, good mother !" the little follow said : And then his C3-CS shone brighter — God bless the little man 1 And he added : " Cause I love her I help her all I can." Ah 1 that's the thing to do, boys, to prove the love you bear To the motltf r who bai kept you in long and loving care ; Make all her burdens ligbtcr ; help eveiy way yon can To pay tht debt you owe her, a? docs my little man. The liuh'jkndcnt.
