THE MOST IMPORTANT PART
Of every prayer is the last thres or four
words of it-"F0r Christ's sake" Do
not rattle of those words as though
they were merely the finishing stroke
Of the prayer. They are the most i'm
portant part CT the prayer. When in
earnestnesS you go before God and say,
For Christ's sake" it rolls in, as it
were, upon Gods mind, all the mem
cries Of Bethlehem and Gennesaret and
GOlgotha When you say before God.
For ChriSt'S sake" you hold before
Gods mind every groan, every tsar,
every crimson drop of his only begot-
ten Son. If there is anything in all
the universe that will move God to an
act Of royal benefaction, it is to say,
For Christ's sake" God is omnipo-
tent, but h is not strong enough to
resist that cry, For Christ's sake"
II a little child should kneel behind
Gods throne and should say, For
Christ's sake, the great Jehovah would
turn around on his throne 10 look at
her and listen. No prayer ever gsts
TO heaven but for Christ's sake. No
soul is ever eomsorted but for Chrisrs
sake The world will never be redes M
ed but for Christ's sake. Our name.

had never seen before. He sat upon
the floor, and held my head across his
knees, while he wiped the blood from
my cut forehead with pocket hand
kerchicf, which every now and then he
would squeeze out in a basin of water
at his elbow.
don't suppose there was ever more
terrified young man upon this earth of
ours. Imagine an inoffensive young
man turning up in a town where an
intimate friend lived, coming in on the
very train that takes this intimate
friend out. Imagine the intimate friend
cordially inviting the newcomer to his
house. telling him there was nobody
in it, but that he could put mp there,
make himself lord and master, hEd
plentJ to eat by foraging around and
get d good bed. Then to make the
thing complete, give him the wrong
keys by which to let himself in.
Imagine this newcomer booming about
town until II clock, then striking out
for his friends abode; overtaken by
the rain; at last 20 arrive at his in
tended abiding place to discover he has
the wrong keys, which necssitates his
climb into the house like burglar.
Imagine him piling into the first bed
he comes to, very soon sinking off into
the untroubled slunber of the inno-
cent at heart, to be awakened at the
peep of day by something tumbling
down the chimney. Not hobgoblin-
that we're better-but young women,
despatched and grimy, but still
young woman and one probably more
dead than alive. Imagine it ell, if you
can, for that is what happened to the
misguided young man, who held Inc
across his knees and wiped the blood
from my broken forehead On that
memorable st. Valentines morning.
Imagine it, and tell me if men through
stupidity don't cause half of all the
trouble in the world. We explained it
all to each other as best we could, for
I was really i'll, and quite ready to go
off irto another swoon.
When the servant girl came he went
for the doctor, and Mary got me to bed.
Dick came Mt noon, and was horriiied
at what had happened. But the doctor
had pronounced me more frightened
than hurt; and really, but for the
dreadful cold l caught, and my wound
ed forehead, it did not amount to my
thing, and soon became a tremendous
joke.
And it turned out that this friend of
Dick S, whose acquaintance ! made in
such an unconventional fashion, was,
the very client whose money de-
Tended.
And it also came about that-that
he--that THAT we have-we have
grown to know each other very we'll;
and Dick-Dick is TO look out for an
other cooperator before next fall; be-
cause-well, for reasons best known TO
myself.-Bessie Tobin, in Detroit Free

CAUGHT A FOX ASLEEP.
Reynard Had to Pay Dearly for His Lack
of Vigilance.

Reynard Had to Pay Dearly for His Lack
of Vigilance.
1t is an old saying of hunters among
the Connecticut hills that a weasel is
caught mapping never, and a red fox
seldom. Fox Hunter Jim Smith, of
Rockville, however, had the rare expert
ence not long ago, while tracking a full
grown fox sleeping sound as log" as
Smith said, in an angle of rail fence
in patch of half cleared, breezy pas
ture land.
The hunter had just emerged from
the forest and was striding down the
sloping field along winding, grassy
paths between clumps of bayberry
bushes, when CHANGING well ahead he
dimly espied tawny, curled-up figure
on the ground, motionless and SEEM
ingly lifeless. y slight wind now and
then ruffied the red hair of the sleeper
Jim could see that from his stand, 20
rods away--otherwise a novice might
well have mistaken it for an unrooted
and dead young juniper bush. But the
sportSman's practiced eye readily as
sured him that the form was that of a
fox, but" he reasoned with himself,
she's dead, sure enough; dead as a
tick" Very cautiously and silently,
however, with trailing gun, he stole
along toward the sleeping beauty until
he was less than 30 feet away from its
grassy couch in the fence angle, and
there he halted and studied his game.
Poor Reynard, evidently overcome
by his eXertions in tedious nocturnal
raid on some distant hen roost, had
dropped down on the ground, not far
from his lair, for 4O-wink nap, and
was sleeping as serenely as house
dog sleeping off his dinner on his vel
vet cushion. 1t seemed much like butch
cry to dispatch him in his sleep. but.
then, foxes are altogether too plenti-
fui and destructive i'll eastern Connecti-
cut to challenge magnanimity on the
part of farmers and sportsmen. Mr..
Smith clapped his piece to his shoulder
bang! and Reynard was dead.
He was an old, tough, wiry, lean and
handsome dog fox, very heavy, weigh
ing about IA pounds. Scattered all
about the short grass near his mapping
place was about half a peck of Ply
mouth Rock hen feathers, showing
plainly why Reynard had yielded TO the
inclination to open-alr slumber. He
had gorged himself by the wayside,
and so paid the penalty. The fox was
such remarkably fine one, with such
heavy flowing brush, that Jim Smith
exhibited him in Rockville show win
dow for day or two and many hunters
came to see HMM. Y. Sun.

l was really too

care what became of me. Still, had
to be disposed of in some way, SO II
was decided that [ go to live with my
brother Richard.
| had always lived with my aunt,
had known no other mother, there
fore her death was the greatest blow
possible to me. And this brother, Rich
ard, I knew only slightly, and that
when / was a mere child. If had been
IN a state of mind to care about any
hing, [ should have hated the idea
of going very much. AS it was, went
without murmur. l took the journey
alone almost clear across the CONT
nent, and subsequently, after many ups
and downs, arrived at Dicks town,
queer little village in South Carolina.
Dick is moderately young bachelor.
He is an attorney -at-law, and has
very fair practice indeed. Anterior to
my advent, he had lived by himself in
a pretty cottage on the prettiest street,
and was rather central figure, and
was quite the most eligible young man
about town. He was not spoiled,
though 1 found him to be a very dear
old fellow, and determined in my heart
10 be to him such n faithful cooperator
and satisfactory housekeeper, that he
would never need or desire any other.
We got on famously together, so
famously that in all probability the
o->
there, he a grizzly old bachelor, I a
grizzled old maid, had not something
occurred which brought abonta change.
1t all grew out of what happened one
st. Valentines eve.
On this day, memorable above other
days, just about an hour after dinner
Dick received telegram to go up that
evening to A, a city so miles away,
10 meet an important client. He did
not have time to come home, for tho
train was then in sight, but he scrib-
bled me the following note, which 1
did not get until nearly night, because
the oifice-boy neglected to bring /. I'M
til that time:
e:1o p. m.
Dear Girl: Have to leave on next train to
meet man in A.. Probably won't get
home till tomorrow noon. Spend the night
with the Ancient "a GEAR old lady friend of
mine) Be sure to put that money in the
bank before 1t closes at 4. Don't fall.
DICK.
1t was such bore to lock up at that
late hour and go out for the night. 1t
had been such gloomy afternoon. and
looked like it would rain. Altogether
I did not feel like It. / was not afraid
though l had never stayed alone all
light in a house. And the money
several thousand dollars collected for
q client-surely could not at seven
put money in bank that closed at
four. l could not very well carry it
with me to the Ancjent's, aud 1 certain
~ could not leave it.
L hrd never heard Of any burglaries
in the village, so 1 made up my mind
that l would stay OF home that night
and take the risk, if there were any,
