Whether little cousin Helen had been on the watch for Charley, or whether she was there by accident, it matters not, suffice it to say that the two soon met in their headlong career of fun and frolic, and two more joyous or merry spirits never met on the soft green sward than these.

ng him with childish fervor and truth whenever they parted, a familiarity she never permitted to his brother. The truth was, Robert to his great discomfiture, was aware that Charles's manly and courageous act of saving the dog had been witnessed by Helen, though his brother knew it not until told by Leonard Hust. This had aggravated Robert so much that he had hastened home, and fabricating a story of Charles having thrown the dog into the pond, and wet himself completely, preparing his parents for a rough reception of his brother when he should return, and hence the treatment he received. Leonard made his young master change his clothes, and after making him comfortable, left him to amuse himself in the open park with his ball, where the light-hearted Charles was soon thoughtlessly happy, and forgetful of the unkindness of Robert and the injustice of his parents. So light are the cares and mishaps of youth, so easily forgotten are its hardships, either seeming or real. Happy childhood!  EVERYTHING KISSING HIM WITH CHILDISH FERVOUR AND T TRUTH WHENEVER THEY PARTED A FAMILIARITY SHE NEVER PERMITTED TO HIS BROTHER THE TRUTH WAS ROBERT TO HIS GREAT DISCOMFITURE WAS AWARE THAT CHARLES'S MANLY AND COURAGEOUS ACT OF SAVING THE DOG HAD BEEN WITNESSED BY HELEN THOUGH HIS BROTHER KNEW IT NOT UNTIL TOLD BY LEONARD HUST THIS HAD AGGRAVATED ROBERT SO MUCH THAT HE HAD HASTENED HOME AND FABRICATING A STORY OF CHARLES HAVING THROWN THE DOG INTO THE POND AND WED HIMSELF COMPLETELY PREPARING HIS PARENTS FOR A ROUGH RECEPTION OF HIS BROTHER WHEN HE SHOULD RETURN AND HENCE THE TREATMENT HE RECEIVED LEONARD MADE HIS YOUNG MASTER CHANGE HIS CLOTHES AND AFTER MAKING HIM COMFORTABLE LEFT HIM TO AMUSE HIMSELF IN THE OPEN PARK WITH HIS BALL WHERE THE LIGHT HEARTED CHARLES WAS SOON THOUGHTLESSLY HAPPY AND FORGETFUL OF THE UNKINDNESS OF ROBERT AND THE INJUSTICE OF HIS PARENTS SO LIGHT ARE THE CARES AND MISHAPS OF YOUTH SO EASILY FORGOTTEN ARE ITS HARDSHIPS EITHER SEEMING OR REAL HAPPY CHILDHOOD
