she had often told him that to prav

sell just what he wanted. AT
night after he had repeated the
Lords Prsyer, he was accustomed
10 make a short prayer Of his
own, In which his childish wants
were expressed in his own words.
Though George was generally .
very good boy and loved his IA,

times happened that he needed
correction; for like all children.
ne liked to have his own way
ohe day, being unwilling to yield.
TO his mothers wishes, she Was
oo,lged to punish him, for she
did not wish her little boy to grow
up a wicked and unruly son. At
night, when it was time for him to
repeat his prayer, he could not
forget his ~naughtxeaetions !: and
