PraYin" for Pan9.

a few nights ago q we'll known cit
izen of Detroit, Mich, who has been
walking for some time in the down
ward path, came ont of his home and
started down town for a night of ca
rousal with some old companions he
had promised to meet Ills young wife
had besought him with imploring eyes
to spend the evening with her. and had
reminded him Of the time when even
Jugs passed in her company were all
too short. His little daughter had
clung about his knees and CoaXed in
her pretty, wilful way for papa to
tell her some bedtime stories, but habit
was stronger than love for wife and
child, and he eluded their tender Ques-
tiOning by the special sophistrics the
father Of evil advances at such times
from his credit fund and went his
way. But when he was block from
his home he found that in changing
his coat he had forgotten to remove his
wallet, and he could not go out on
drinking bout without money, even
though he knew that his family needed
it, that his wife was economiZing each
day more and more in order to make
up his deficits, and he hurried back and
crept softly past the windows Of the
little home, in order that he might
steal in and obtain it, without running
the gauntlet of either questions or ca
resses. But something stayed his feet;
there was a fire in the CRATE within
for the night was chill-and it lit up
the little parlor and brought out in
startling effects the pictures on the
wall. But these were as nothing to
the picture on the hearth. There, in
the soft glow of the freight, knelt his
little child at her mothers feet, its
small hands clasped in prayer, its fair
head bowed; and as its rosy lips utter
ed each word with childish diStinctness,
the father listened, spellbound to the
spot.
"Now lay me down to sleep,
Ipray the Lord my soul to keep;
If should die before | wake,
Ipray the Lord my soul to take"
Sweet petition! The man himself,
who stood there with bearded lips shut
tightly together, had said that prayer
once at htS mothers knee. Where was
that mother now? The sunset gates
had long ago unbarred to let her pass
through. But the child had not fin
iShed; he heard her "God bless mamma,
papa and my ownself' there was
"a pause, and she lifted troubled blue
eyes to her mothers face.
God bless papa" prompted the
mother, softly.
God bless papa," lisped the little
one.
"And-please send him home SOBER"
He could not hear the mother as she
said this, but the child followed in a
clear, inspired tone:
'God-bless papa-and please-send
him-hOme-sober. Amen" Mother
and child sprang to their feet in alarm
when the door opened so suddenly, but
they were not afraid when they saw
who it was-returned so soon; but that
night, when Mamie was being tucked
up in bed after such a romp with papa
she said in the sleepiest and most con-
tented of voices:
Mamma, God answers most as quick
as the telephone, doesn't hep

Some of the Western judges draw
nice distinctions. An Arkansas court
has decided that it is not arson for a
man to set fire to his own house, while
by an Indiana tribunal it is held that
to constitute the crime of nSon the
house itself, and not merely its con-
tents, must be set on ire But late
California decision is perhaps more
unique than either. The Supreme
Court reversed conviction for perjury
on the ground that the false testimony
given by the offender was not material
to the case, and therefore could not be
perjury.

The will of John Davenport, of
Portland, Oregon, was compelled to
take long journey. Mr.. Davenport
died in England, and his will was pro-
bated in London. AS he left $4,000
worth of property in Oregon, it was
necessary that it should also be probat-
ed there. 1t was also requisite that
the original document should be pro
duced, and as when a will is probated
in England the Probate Court keeps it
in charge, an officer of the London
court had to make the Journey to
Oregon with Mr.. Davenport's will, in
trder that it might be probated there
This has been done, and it is said to
have been the first instance Of the
kind that ever occurred.

The Real Ruler of Men.

"The pen is the only scepter which is
never broken. The only real master is
he who controls the thoughts of men.
The maker OF words is master of the
one who only uses them. In this do
main he has no rival. He stands at the
fountain head of thought, science, civil
lization. Heis controller of all minds
to him all who talk, think, write or
print, pay ceaseless and involuntary
tribute. In this sense, Noah Webster
is the all-shaping, all-controlling mind
of this hemisphere. He grew up with
his country, and largely by his Spelling
Book and Dictionaries, he nodded the
intellectual character Of her people.
Not man has sprung from her soil, on
whom he has not laid his all-forming
hand. His principles of language have
tinged every sentence that is now, or
will ever be uttered by an American
tongue. His genius has presided over
the language of the whole nation. 1t
is universal, omnipotent and omnipres-
ent. No man can breathe the air of the
continent and escape it. The scepter
which the great photographer wields
so unquestion ably, was most worthily
won. 1t was not inherited, it was
achieved. 1t cost a life-struggle for an
honest, brave, unfaltering heart-a
clear, serene intellect. No propitious
accident favored his progress. The vic
tory was won after steady trial of
sixty years."

Now that the hot days Of the "dog
star" are upon Ills with an increase of
disease among children, a few thoughts
on feeding and management may he of
service.
The appalling mortality among
hand-raised" infants especially-ren-
ders the subject of diet one of the ut
most Importance.
AS prevention is better than cure, a
few simple rules are worthy of atten-
ton by all who wish to ward off disease
from the little folks. To be sure
zymotic diseases (dyphtheria, scarlete-
na, etc., cannot be entirely prevented;
but if we can prevent chill and errors
in diet the great difficulties are removed.
Briefly, then, to avoid sickness child
raised by hand should have for the first
eight days mixtureof one part cream,
three parts water and one part milk
sugar, or little loaf sugar.
After six or eight weeks the food
should be prepared as follows: Boil IA
heaping teaspoonful of sugar of milk in
half teacupful of water for fifteen
minutes; then add half a cup of fresh
milk.
Every thing used in feeding must be
kept absolutely sweet and clean. The
cream used should be from the milk of
young and healthy COW; the pan in
which it rises should be kept clean by
washing, scalding and soaking in So
luton of bicarbonate of soda.
Warm Never boiD milk by dipping
the bottle containing it in hot water.
AS to quantity Of food for the first
three weeks six or eight table-spoonfuls
at each meal is sufficient; increased as
the child grows stronger. AT four
months or near teething water should
be one-third the mixture, which can
soon be reduced to pure milk. A little
meat-broth and other foods may now
be given but no starchy food until six
teeth appear. Children inclined to
leanness are sometimes benefited by
little coffee-from few drops to a tea
poonful once or twice a day. If milk
in any form disagrees, add few drops
Of lime water. Where there is much
thirst little table-salt is better than
lime water.
In gastritic inflammation of the stom-
ach) give frequent sips of water for
thirst instead of 50 much milk.
Cholera infantum invariably requires
medical attendance; but this, unless
aided by proper diet, frequently fails.
Feeding milk in this disease is like add
ing fuel to the flames. Let the stomach
rest from six to eighteen hours. Crush
ed ice in cloth placed in the mouth or
frequent sips Of water will appease
hunger. Crust coffee, or little table
coffee, may be given if the child is old
enough to take it. Corn starch well
cooked in scalded milk frequently forms
an excellent diet. e. e. SILL.
