a PRAYER FOR THE BEAVER FAMILY
In the State of Olio, there resided a fam
iy c"nsist,n. of an old man. by the name
Of Beaver, and his four sons. all of them
very hard pests. who had often laughed
to scorn the advice and entreaties OF a
pious though very eccentric minister who
resided in the same town. 1t happened
that one of the boys was bitten by a rat
tlesnake and was expected to die. when
the minister was sent for, in great haste.
On his arrival. he found the young man
very penitent and anxious t" be prayed
with. The minister calling in the family
knceled down and prayed in this wise
20 Lord. we thank thee for rattlcsnakes;
we thank thee because rattlesnake has
bit jim. We pray thee to sen'i rattle
snake to bite John: send one to bite Bi!i;
send one to bite Sam; and q Lord, send
the biggest kind Of a ra.tlesnake to bite
the old man. for nothing but rattlesnakes
will ever bring the Beaver family to repen-
tancc!"

The ladies Of Rome do not seem to be

would not for the world let Young man
