it. The next evening. after she had said
her prayers, and was ready to go to bed,
she said to her mother:

me If God watches over me?" went on
the child. ..

"And this house can't burn down If

which tipped the beam to 400 pounds

farmer, happy and contented at all
times, and always has something to

he needs it. He keeps his smokehouse

boards at home. The price of cotton
brings no frown to his peaceful counte-

bodies and frost-bitten fingers, he sits
by his family hearthstone and smokes
the pipe of peace. .-Carrollton Con-
