The servant who was left with him was unfaithful to her -trust, and, while he slept, wandered away in search of pleasure. A -treacherous tiger, prowling in search of a pig or a lamb for his supper, -finding the village very quiet, ventured in among the dwellings. The -English gentlemen were all absent, and most of the natives were at work -in the rice swamp or the paddy field; while the white ladies, exhausted -with heat, were taking their rest, little dreaming how careless were -their nurses. - -[Illustration] - -The treacherous tiger crept noiselessly past the deserted homes, until -he espied the sweet little sleeper. Then, with one bound, he sprang upon -him, grasped the flowing white robe in his teeth, and darted off to his -native jungle. Having secured the prize, he laid him down; and as a -kitten plays with the captive mouse, began sporting with him. He walked -round and round, layed first one paw and then the other on the little -plump feet, and looked into his beautiful face as if his ferocious heart -was almost melted by its sweetness. - -There was a brave heart in little Bennie, for he seemed not at all -alarmed by his strange companion. He was well used to Negro, the large -black house dog; the ponies were his chief favourites; and he felt -inclined to look on the tiger, perhaps, as an addition to his circle of -dumb friends. Or, if the glance of these fiery eyeballs, and the display -of these dreadful teeth, made his heart beat for a moment, he only -returned the gaze, saying in baby language: “I’m not afraid of you, for -I’ve got a father! You can’t touch Bennie—Bennie’s got a mamma!” Oh, how -strong this trust in earthly love made that frail boy! Why will not -those who know that God is over all, confide in him in times of danger, -and be at rest! - -[Illustration] - -All this time the boy’s mother slept, nor dreamed of danger to her -darling. The truant nurse, missing her little charge, flew from house to -house in search of him. But the Eye which never sleeps was on him. An -aged native had heard the low growl of satisfaction, which to his -practised ear, told that a tiger had seized his prey. Taking his -carbine, he followed on his trail, and secreted himself noiselessly -behind the bushes. He watched his opportunity to fire, trembling less -the charge meant for the tiger might kill the boy. He took his aim and -fired. The tiger ran a few steps toward the jungle, then staggered and -fell dead within a few yards of the little captive. Do you think that -his mother could ever forget the kind old native? Could she ever forget -God, who saved her darling from so terrible a death? - -There is an enemy more dangerous than any beast of the forest, who seeks -to destroy both soul and body—Satan, whom the Scripture calls a “roaring -lion.” He has many servants, who watch like the tiger for their prey, -ready to spring upon unguarded youth. God has warned us against these -spiritual foes, and promised His protection to all that trust in Him. - -[Illustration] - - - - - THE DEAD BROTHER. - - -[Illustration] - - I am all alone in my chamber now, - And the midnight hour is near; - And the faggot’s crack and the clock’s dull tick - Are the only sounds I hear. - And o’er my soul, in its solitude, - Sweet feelings of sadness glide, - For my heart and my eyes are full when I think - Of the little boy that died. - - I went one night to my father’s house— - Went home to the dear ones all— - And softly I opened the garden gate, - And softly the door of the hall. - My mother came out to meet her son— - She kissed me, and then she sighed, - And her head fell on my neck, and she wept - For the little boy that died. - - I shall miss him when the flowers come, - In the garden where he played; - I shall miss him more by the fireside, - When the flowers have all decayed. - I shall see his toys and his empty chair, - And the horse he used to ride; - And they will speak with a silent speech, - Of the little boy that died. - - We shall go home to our Father’s house— - To our Father’s house in the skies, - Where the hopes of our souls shall have no blight, - Or love no broken ties. - We shall roam on the banks of the river of peace, - And bathe in its blissful tide; - And one of our joys of heaven shall be - The little boy that died. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - - - - - TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES - - - 1.

The English gentlemen were -all absent, and most of the natives were -at work in the rice swamp or the paddy -field; while the white ladies, exhausted -with heat, were taking their rest, little -dreaming how careless were their nurses.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id002'> -<img src='images/image003.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c005'>The treacherous tiger crept noiselessly -past the deserted homes, until he espied -the sweet little sleeper. Then, with one -bound, he sprang upon him, grasped the -flowing white robe in his teeth, and -darted off to his native jungle. Having -secured the prize, he laid him down; -and as a kitten plays with the captive -mouse, began sporting with him. He -<span class='pageno' id='Page_4'>4</span>walked round and round, layed first one -paw and then the other on the little -plump feet, and looked into his beautiful -face as if his ferocious heart was almost -melted by its sweetness.</p> - -<p class='c005'>There was a brave heart in little -Bennie, for he seemed not at all alarmed -by his strange companion. He was well -used to Negro, the large black house -dog; the ponies were his chief favourites; -and he felt inclined to look on the tiger, -perhaps, as an addition to his circle of -dumb friends. Or, if the glance of these -fiery eyeballs, and the display of these -dreadful teeth, made his heart beat for a -moment, he only returned the gaze, -saying in baby language: “I’m not -afraid of you, for I’ve got a father! You -can’t touch Bennie—Bennie’s got a mamma!” -Oh, how strong this trust in -earthly love made that frail boy! Why -will not those who know that God is over -all, confide in him in times of danger, and -be at rest!</p> - -<div class='figcenter id001'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_5'>5</span> -<img src='images/image005.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c005'>All this time the boy’s mother slept, -nor dreamed of danger to her darling. -The truant nurse, missing her little charge, -flew from house to house in search of him. -But the Eye which never sleeps was on -him. An aged native had heard the low -growl of satisfaction, which to his practised -ear, told that a tiger had seized his -<span class='pageno' id='Page_6'>6</span>prey. Taking his carbine, he followed on -his trail, and secreted himself noiselessly -behind the bushes. He watched his -opportunity to fire, trembling less the -charge meant for the tiger might kill the -boy. He took his aim and fired. The -tiger ran a few steps toward the jungle, -then staggered and fell dead within a few -yards of the little captive. Do you think -that his mother could ever forget the kind -old native? Could she ever forget God, who -saved her darling from so terrible a -death?</p> - -<p class='c005'>There is an enemy more dangerous -than any beast of the forest, who seeks to -destroy both soul and body—Satan, whom -the Scripture calls a “roaring lion.” He -has many servants, who watch like the -tiger for their prey, ready to spring upon -unguarded youth.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg -Literary Archive Foundation - -Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide -spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of -increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be -freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest -array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations -($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt -status with the IRS. - -The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating -charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United -States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a -considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up -with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations -where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND -DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular -state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate - -While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we -have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition -against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who -approach us with offers to donate. - -International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make -any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from -outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. - -Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation -methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other -ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To -donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate - -Section 5.
