A Shepherd Boys Idea of
PRAYER.

A little lad was keeping his sheep one
Sunday morning The bells were ringing
for service at the church, and the peo-
pie were going over the fields, when the
little fellow began to think that he too
would like to pray to God. But what
could he say, for he had never learnt any
prayer. However, he knelt down, and
commenced the alphabet. A B G D and
so on to u. A gentleman happening to
pass on the other side of the hedge, heard
the lads voice, and looking through the
bushes saw the little fellow kneeling with
folded hands and closed eyes, saying his
A BIC.
What are you doing my little man?''
said the gentleman kindly.
The little lad looked up. please sir,
1 was praying"
But what are you saying your letters
for p
"Why l don't know any prayer, only
felt in my heart that wanted God to
take care of me, and hel p me take care
of the sheep; SO | thought if said all l
knew, he would put it together and spell
all what / wanted
Bless your heart, my little man, he
will, he will; when the heart speaks
right, the lips can't say wrong"
The prayer that goes to heaven, must
come from the heart.

PRAYER and Study

A girl at London boarding.school
was remarked for repeating her lessons
well.
A school fellow, rather idly inclined,
said to her one day, How is it that you
always say your lesson so perfectly?
She replied, &C. always pray that ]
may say my lessons well"
do your said the other; well then,
! will pray too.
But, alas the next morning she could
not even repeat word Of her usual tas k.
Very much COMPOUNDED, she ran to her
friend, and reProached her as deceitful.
II prayed" said she, but ! could not
say a single word Of my lessons"

A Child's Party in Japan.

Formal children's parties have been
given in this house, for which formal in
vitations in the name of the house child
girl of twelve, are sent out About 3
P. M. the guests arrive, frequently at
tended by servants and this child, Haru,
receives them at the top OF the stone steps,
and conducts each into the reception room,
where they are arranged according to
some well understood rules of prece-
dence
Harus hair is drawn back, raised in
front and gathered into double loop. in
which some scarlet crepe is twisted Her
face and throat are much whitened, the
paint terminating in three points at the
back of her neck, from which all the short
hair has been carefully extracted with
pincers Her lips are slightly touched
with red paint, and her face looks like
that of cheap (Jopo1aese) doll She
wears blue, lowered silk Kimomo (dreS-
sing goaon) with sleeves touching the
ground, blue grdle SASH lined with
scarlet, and fold of scarlet crepe lies
between her painted neck and her KIM
ono. On her little feet she wears tabi,
socks of cotton cloth, with a separate
place for the great toe, so as to allow the
scarlet thongs of the finely lacquered
clogs (Which she puts on when she stands
on the stone-steps to receive her guests)
to pass between it and the smaller toes
All the other little ladies were dressed in
the same style, and all looked like i'll
executed dolls. She met them with very
formal but graceful bows.
When they were all assembled, she
and her very graceful mother, squatting
before each, presented tea and sweet
meats on lacquer trays, and then they
played at very quiet and polite games
till dusk They addressed each other by
their names with the honorifc prefix o,
only used in the case of women, and the
respectful affix San : thus Haru becomes
O-Haru-San, which is equivalent to
Miss A mistress of the house is ad-
dressed as O-Kami-San, and O-Kusuma.
Something like my Lady," is applied
to married ladies' Women have no sur
names; thus you do not speak of Mrs.
Saguchi, but of the wife of Saguchi- San,
and you would address her as O-Kusuma
Among the children's names were Haru,
Spring; Kuki, Snow; Hama, Blossom
Kiku, Chrysanthemum Gin, Silver
One of the most amusing games were
played with spirit and dignity. 1t con-
sisted in one child feigning sickness and
another playing doctor, and the pompous-
ness and the gravity of the latter, and
the distress and weakness of the former,
were most successfully initiated. Unfor-
tunately the doctor killed his patient,
who counterfeited death very effectively
with her whitened face; then followed
the funeral and the mourning. They thus
dramatic weddings, dinner parties, and
many other of the events of life. Before
they went away, tea and sweetmeats were
again handed, and as it is neither etiquette
to refuse or to leave anything, the small
ladies slipped what they could not eat in
their sleeves. On departing the same
courtesies were used as on arriving

Ghilaren's Column.
Baby Has Gone to School.

The baby has gone to school; ah, mel
What will the mother do,
With never call to button or pin.
Or tie little shoe2
How can she keep herself busy all day,
With the little hindering thing" away
Another basket to FIJI with lunch,
Another "good-by" to say,
And the mother stands at the door to see
Her baby march away;
And turns with a sigh that is half relief,
And half something akin to grief.
She picks up garments here and there,
Thrown down in careless haste,
And tries to think how it would seem
If nothing were displaced.
If the house were always still as this,
How could she bear the loneliness?

There is superb dressing among the
American ladies at the dinner tables of the
great Paris hotels. L is unusual to see a
lady in the same costume twice. It is all
along Of the American custom house. As
the possessor of new French dresses is
obliged to swear, upon reaching the
shores of this free and independent repub.
lie, that all of them have been worn st
least once, the problem is solved and a
sensation at the same time created, by
dressing up for dinner. But it is a
shame to deprive women of the fun of
smuggling. There is hardly anything in
which she so much delights still, as the
risk has become very great, it is good that
so pleasant means of escape out of the
quandary has been invented.
