An example of childish faith, of kind
dull age wears away, was seen tbs
other day A little boy was sitting in
the yard of an old country homestead
on either side OF him sat huge dog, pa
tent and loving. The sun shone dowr
scorchingly on the trio, and its rays wers
uncomfortable. Shading his eyes witt
his curved hand the child looked sky
ward and said, put in that sun, please.
The sun shone brightly, and the littl.
fellow repeated softly, please put ii
that sun, man up in the sky; it hurts my
head"
Just then over the face Of the blazing
orb there sailed white summer cloud
then another. and the yellow hlazs
turned suddenly 70 hazy, restful gray
Turning to the dogs, the little boy, put
ting an arm around the neck of each
said; Did you see the sun pulled in
Romeo and Chieftain? When you want:
anything, if you'll good, and You asks Goo
for it, he gives it to you. The sun hurt
my head, and asked him to put it in
and don't you see how he did reach ou'
and put it in for ine:" The dogs looked
wise, leaned their heads lovingly TOWARD
the diminutive little theologian, and
whatever might have been their belief
kept an inscrutabls silence.

There was an equal number of threads OF

the duller colors, taking all of The gray and
q few threads Of the purple when the meet

Sending Money by Express.

Some interesting facts were recently
cleaned about the business of expressing
money IN the United States. The amour
30 convey ed is estimated to be 81, 800
o. 0 900 a year, of which four tifths sr'
carried for the government. The Adam
Express , ompsny. formerly acted a, IT,
agent, charging Twenty-Five cents fo'
each $1,000. but recently the confraci
was awarded to the United states tx
press Company, which offered 10 d' IN,
work for fifteen cents per $1,000 IN
packages of money are iDtrusted to 5o0
mes sengers. who are for the most pau
middle-aged men ected from the work
ing force in the main offices The mes
seuger has not the slightest idea OF Whist
his pat kages contain SO that he under
stands that his responsibility is always
the same Before accepting a
package for shipment he sees
that it is securely fastened with
wax and stamped with the seal Of the
sender. For Government MONEYS he Is
provided with safe Packages for cor
porations and individuals are put into
canvas bags As soon az his run OF
twelve hours begins, the messenger sta-
lions himself near his charge. and he
must not allow his eyes to close. at the
risk of dismissal from the service. SO
dangerous. indeed, are a messenger
duties considered, that insurance COM
panies will not issue policies To him
except at cost that is almost prohibitive.
But the express companies treat their EN-
ployes so generously that II the latter
are injured while on duty they may con
fidenlly count on financial assistance.
Recently, as large a sum as $4,000, 600
was sent out by express from the treas
ury at Washington. and five messengers
were assigned to take care Of 1t in tran
