"She did, did she? Perhaps I'm as able to

His Meditationg.

Soon after Singletons first baby was born
and entered the room where her darling
lay asleep. There she found her husband
standing by the side OF the crib and gazing
earnestly at the child. As she stood still for
a moment touched by the sight, the tears
filed her eyes and she thought:
ooh, how dearly Charles loves that boy"
Her arms stole softly around his neck, as
she rubbed her check caressingly against
ais shoulder. Singleton started slightly at
the touch. Darling" he said dreamily,
vocing his thoughts, "it is incomprehensible
to me how they can get up such crib %
that for S2.50."-N. Y. journal.
