An American who was walking down the streets of a Chinese city was greatly interested in the children, many of whom were carrying smaller children upon their backs, and managing at the same tine to play their games, says a writer in the Youth's Companion. "It is too bad," the American sympathetically said to one little fellow, "that you have to carry such a heavy burden!" "He's no burden," came the quick reply; "he's my brother." "Well, you are chivalrous to say so!" said the man, and he gave the boy some money. When the American reached home he, said to his family: "A little Chinese boy has taught me the fullest meaning of the words, "Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. He recounted his interview, and added: "If a little Chinese boy can carry and care for his brother and refuse to consider him as a burden, surely we ought not to think it a burden to carry our little brothers, the weak and the needy ones, who look to us for help. Let us rejoice as we carry one, and say, by our actions, "He's no burden; he's my brother." --Rescue Journal.
