fered almost enough for the betting privileges
to pay for the purses the club would have
been compelled to put up. The larger
stables, however, were anxious to retire theiI
horses for the winter, and as only the smaller

feared that some combination night be formed

An Answer to Her Prayer.


A woman in West Tennessee went home
from church one Sunday, impressed by a
moving appeal which her pastor had made In
behalf of a minister's widow recently left in
want with six children. What could she give
to relieve this case Of suffering? She was her
self widow and poor. She thought in
tcnsely over the matter, and that night she
prayed over it, but no way Of raising the
money occurred to her The next morning
when she went out to sweep off her doorstep
she noticed that the earth one side had been
freshly thrown up, and something glitterlng
lay in the dirt. 1t was s. gold piece.
During the night rat had taken 1t into his
head to dig hole under the step, and one re-
suit of his labor was the resurrection of that
coin. The woman knew that during the war
her husband had buried his savings, all In
gold coins under those steps; but he had dug
up the money after the war was over, and evl-
IDENTIFY supposed lie had recovered the whole
1t seemed that he was mistaken. And now
his widow was not slow to follow the hint
given her by the burrowing rat. She removed
the steps, and after thorough search sue
ceeded in finding 800. Regarding this money
as direct gift from heaven, she sent it all
to the suffering family.
