Jenny was considered at school but

never 50 happy as when snuggled close by
his side, listening to his WOrdy, earnest and
usually selfish, condolences. Other girls
leagued together, with secrets, or talked

leisure time to her brother.
Who can estimate the restraining power
which this friendship and confidence has on
the lad, keeping him back from any thought
or action which he could not tell to this
hOmely, loving, innocent listener? Neither
he nor she ever knew that there was such an
influence at work between them
How many simple, unselfish souls go
through life, too dull TO do great or clever
work in the world, only giving sympathy
and affection unsparingly out Of full hearts.

i've years or thereabOut. He had been with
his respected father and another gentleman
friend at the museum one afternoon during
the past week, and hugely enjoyed the per.
Torrance. Upon his return home he de-
lighted ma mere with an account of Fannie
Louise Buckingham's thrilling feats upon
the "fiery untamed steed." Presently he
broke forth on another subject. Mamma +"
he asked, 'do angels wear dresses" NO,
my dear" "None at all?' he continued.
why. no, child; why do you ask? "Be-
cause when the pretty girl in tights was
placed upon the back of the horse both Pa

and, when Mr. said she was a fine
looking woman, pa said she was an angel. /
didn't know angels lived in this city" An
accumulated silence was preserved for some
time after Johnnie's discourse.
