Amending His Prayer.

The infant son of certain pious
father, in whose family prayers are
always said morning and evening,
was taken ill, and the physician ad-
ministere2 medicine. On being put
to bed the little fellow was advised
by bis Christian mother to pray that
his health be restored: So kneeling
at his crib, his little lips lisped;
God bless papa, God bless mamma.
God bless everyone; God bless che doctor
and the medicin' to make me well.
Amen"
Next morning the paor little chap
was worse, and he alarmed his fond
parents by symptoms Of scepticism as
to the fiecacy of prayer. He was
admonished that perhaps the Lord
wasn't quite ready to answer his pray :
er, and to try again. So kneeling
the second night, he prayed thus:
g God bless papa, God bless mamma,
God bless everybody. God bless the
doctor; and I hope to God bless the
med'cin' will work tonight. Amen
The boy got well.
