The Rev. DR.. Charles Il. Kings
ley of New York, has raised o.
lection to the use of the prayer
"Now I lay me down tc sleep" be
cause it fills the child with notions
Of death. 'The main petition of the
child is that God should take him if
he does,' says the doctor. "But
there is nothing about how he
should live"
DR.. Kingsley is right BY force
of tradition, every one thinks it Il
beautiful prayers but the writer for
one, has often felt her heart sink
when hearing the words iisped all
unknowing, by baby lips. 1t is use
less as welb since children need no
special prayer, to commend their
souls to God. In case of death,
their pure spirits speed to the bleSt
place of their Inheritance. But it
is for daily living that prayer is
we'll for them, as for older ones.
"Make me- good little boy" for
little girD for jesus sake" is the
better petition.
