THE CHILD'S PRAYER

It is SAID of that good old man, John
Quincy Adams. that he never went TO rest
at night till he had repeated the simple
prayer learned in childhood the familiar
NOW l lay me down to sleep"
Is there not something touching in the
thought that these words, breathed from
the rosy lips of infancy, went with him
away down through old age into the dark
valley of death? And who is there, man
or woman, for whom this little prayer has
not old, sweet associations? Who, hearing
its words, hears not too the memory bells
ringing up from the golden plains of child
hood? 1t may be a man in pride and
strength of years, who has carved out for
himself an honorable name and destiny in
the world; perhaps the owner of broad
lands and proud homes, with heart grown
hard in its battle with the world.
How many years was it? Twenty thirty,
forty-no matter, at the sound Of the old
Now lay me-, they have all rolled back
their massive doors, and we go down
through them to the old, red One-story
house, where life first took its morning. We
see the little window on the right side,
close under the rafters. Well, we slept
sounder slumher and dreamed sweeter
dreams in that old garret than we ever
have in our lofty chambers, with gilded
ceilings and snowy draperies. And what
of it, if the bed was straw one and the
coverlet made OF red and yellow patches"
of calico? We have never snuggied down
so contentedly on our springs and hair
mattresses.
Now lay me- How softly sleep would
come and weigh down the eyelids as We
repeated the words after mother. We can
hear her very tones, though it is so many
years since death silenced them, and feel
the soft touch of her hand on the pillow
and the tender lingering of her kiss upon
our lips. 1t may he years since We have
repeated this little prayer, or 1t may be
that, in the din and struggle of life we
have forgottenit and that at night we have
lain down on our pillows never thinking to
give thanks for the day and for the night.
But sooner or later we shall lie down
to Sleep when this prayer will be all our
souls can take, all that Will avail OF rank,
or wealth, or fame; whatsoever we must
prize in this world. But the little prayer,
the first, 1t ma be, that We took upon our
childish lips, shall follow US as we sail
out under the solemn arches; follow US as
a sweet, faint. tender air from the shores;
and when we cast our anchor, 1.-THE Lord
oCr souls shall take Boston Herald.

This rough estimate on the basis OF 1he

many women speakers The attack which
attracted most attention was made in VIII
lard Hall by Miss Jane Caldwell of BOs-
ton. While she was speaking fate directed
Mr.. Hesing into the hall, and for an hour
there was the mildest kind of excitement.
Miss Caldwell be gan by stating that she was
not resident of Chicago, but was lone of
Boston's $4,000 old maids, for whom no
man spent his money for clothes" Every
body looked at MIR. HeSing. He tried to
speak, but was kept down while Miss Cald-
well continued to express her opinion of the
man who had *the audacity to say that the
extravaganza of women had ta ken as many
men to the prison cell as whisky"
Mr.. Hesing struggled to his feet and man
aged to wedge in the statement that he had
not attacked women, but had simply stated
facts and was not responsible because
they were true. Since then Mr.. Hesing S

Tax ON Handsome Men.

Donovan of Bay, the man who prepared
the bill now before the Michigan house OF
representatives for a tax on unmarried
men, says that he is going TO add few
frills to it, before it comes up for vote.
He is going to fine ''Old maids" and he
proposes to exempt from the penalties or
the bill men who have done the best they
could and have been Tilted, or are so home
ly that no sane woman would look anthem
The latter class is not expected TO take
advantage of the exemption. As a means
of sure and fruitful revenge, a tax on
handsome men would be the best scheme.
All other men could be allowed to ''swear
off, the tax; but how many of them would?

little constitutional difficulties were waiv-

and the police were called there by the
vigorous blowing Of a police whistle Sew

they found a young man. whose name was
not disclosed. bareheaded and minus his
overcoat, who claimed he had been assault
ed in the horse. The police learned that

been to the theater Saturday night, and
the appearance of the rooms showed that
celebration had followed the return home
