A Formula Of Painful Memory.


Last Monday a lady who lives on Nor
gan street took her 5-yeaT-Old son to a
photographer to have his picture taken
She was anxious to secure a good like
ness at this particular sitting because
she wished TO distribute the pictures
among some friends who were then her
guests.
The child's idea of the affair, however,
dld not, apparently, harmonic with that
OF MS mother. For when the man with
the camera began to adjust the lens and
direct ii toward little Edward that young
person set up what was unquestiOnahly
a howl.
In vain did the mother call into use her
utmost forensic abilities. Edward did not
want his picture taken.
Why, my child, she said, soothingly
the gentleman won't hurt you. Just
smile and keep still a moment and il
will be all over before you know it."
Yes. know, mamma" Whimpered the
youth. with the tears running down his
cheeks, but that's what you told me at
