UBRANcH OFFICES,
THE CHILDRENs FRIEND.

There is still something to be desired II
the matter of interest in the Free Doctors
Fund for Sick Children. Contributions
:. come in with every mail, and there nrC
many letters filed with warm sympathy
for the little sufferers. As a rule, the
majority of these come from persons o'
moderate means. from those who are
richer in feeling than in worldly goods.
Is there not pathos in this! Tint those
who can not 30 we'll spare even dollar
are the reGdiest to put their hands in
their pockets for the benefit of the small,
ailing children2
But il is reproach TO such as are
blessed with bank accounts. Where are
these rich people, on whom the poor have
n sort of claim? Why do thew not send
in some inconsiderable sum to help on
this charity?
The only reason must be that they do
not appreciate the condition and the need
of those in whose name they are asked TO
dispense modest sum. II II came home
to them, they would surely contribute.
Let them give only five minutes thought
to the subject and they will perceive the
need. Contribute, good friends, and
promote most worthy undertaking.

THE TOUCH OF NATURE.

The miners imprisoned in the Hill
Farm Mine in Pennsylvania have been
heard from. The good fellows who are
digging their comrades out Of their an
thracits sepulchre heard the pick, pick,
pick of the buried men, and worked with
renewed energy.
Amid the horror of these gloomy min
ing disasters there is always some touch
of human nature which is superbly fine.
In their grimy bodies the miners carry
very often hearts beautifully sensitive to
the purest feelings OF humanity. There
Ii the strongest sense Of brotherly
sympathy. and they work like heroes to
rescue their comrades, locked In the close
clasp of the earth. This is encouraging.
