ed once. guess he is awful sleepy.
Don't you think you could wake him
up ~
"1'll try" replied the man as he
went in, and when the girl had
lighted the lamp, he followed her in
to a bedroom in which there was
neither carpet nor furniture. Pushed
back against the broken wall was a
poor old straw tick and single quilt.
He bent over to look at the child,
and the first glance showed him that
little Sandy was dead. On the win
dow sill were some pieces of bread
and cup of milk, which the chill
dren intended to feed him. The
dead child's hand clasped rag doll
made of an old calico apron, and its
thin little feet and pale face were ev-
licences that II had known sickness
and hunger throughout its brief life.

open his eyes and romp with them
and drive the gloom out of the house.
the angels had whispered to him and
his eyes had Enclosed to behold the
splendors of Heaven.
Wont ne wake up r! asked one
Of the children, standing back in the
shadow. .s..
Children, you must not come in
here until your mother comes !" he
said as he left the room.
"Won't he be afraid to wake up in
the dark 2" they asked.
"He will sleep long time yetlp
he whispered, not daring to tell them
the truth, and as he went out they
put the lamp in on the bedroom floor,
that little Sandy might not find the
darkness around him when his sleep
was ended. Poor things They
knew not and they could not see the
crown of glory on the dead child's
brow--a crown whose light all the
shadows of earth can never darken
in the least. :.
