TWO LITTLE GIRLS

were once brought to our school. Their parents were very poor and that means that those children had always heen hungry. One day shor5ly after they came to the school, one of the little girls.
 'liItIe Catherine" came into my room. coming up to me she said "Oh Miss Harvey dear I love you" One could not help loving her. She seemed right away to fill such a large place in our hearts. One day she came to me and was not feeling we'll. She had a little fever, but I thought nothing of it. giv- ing her some simple remedies. l had had a good deal of experience for one who was not 8 trained nurse, for you may know in school of 100 girls there would be some ailing ones most of the time. When the doctor came he said we were treating her case all right, not thinking it serious. But she did not get better and one morning when 1 went in to see her she had such a strange look on her face,

ing upon the street, but it can be done through the missionary society," The 1 lot of the India widows is worst of all. They saw one day woman coming with two others. She was weeping bitterly. They asked af ' he trouble. Her husband died ;s ht fore. She must have her head shaved as a sign, and that no one may show her any respect There is belief that her hushand,s death was caused by some wrong that she had done, perhaps hundreds of years before in some previous state of ex- istence.
 MRS THOMPSON THERE INTRODUCED Miss Harvey, returned missionary from India. Her field of labor was at Compore in the s'girls high school" among the Emasians. They have been designated as people without country. They are mixed people of English and 1 Africans, and are looked down upon by the pure blooded Africans. They call | themselves Christians, and doing so,
 proved great stumbling blocks to our missionary workers, for the Africans
 want none of christianity if they are christians. The school was opened at the earnest request of some parents, who
 were able to pay for the tuition of their girls. They numbered 100 scholars. At one time their building became so poor
 they could look up through the cracks in the roof. They knew they could not stay there through another rainy season
 which was coming on. Finally they l EXCHANGED WITH THE
 parent board for some land they haG and put up good strong building, ons
 that would hold 150 girls, going in deb
 about $600. In relation to child mar
 riage. the English government ha
 forbidden any girl under F being mar
 ried, but it still goes on. One time the.
 missed little girl who lived near tn
 school. They went to the home and in
 quired for her. They said she was dead
 Then they went to a neighbours. Sh
 said the same. But they knew she wa
 not dead, but that there had been mid
 night marriage. and she had been carrie away. Infanticide has been forbidde by law, but it goes on. One time ther : was report that 200 children had bee = eaten by wild beasts. Upon inquiry int : the matter they found that every one c | those children were girls. The vii ! beasts of India seemed to have an antiE athy for boys.

REQUIEM.
BY NJ. COOLEY.

Let her rest; the weary night
Never brought her dreams like this.
Let her sleep; the morning light
Shall not wake her from her bliss.
Glad was she to end the fight;
Death had conquered with kiss.
Tired eyes need watch no more;
Flagging feet, the race is run;
Hands that heavy burdens bore,
Set them down, the day is done;l
Heart, be still-through anguish sore,
Everlasting peace is won.
