went to sleep. It Is gratifying that
the long sleep and the hot milk alter
ward given to this child, saved her from
death and she was added to the fold OF
orphans in DR.. Tayior's care. Even
in the streets Of Bombay, there are
hundreds @! famine children wondering
about.
With sunken eyes, hollow cheeks
and indented temples, with weary weak
skeleton legs, they totter by the dozen
in the footsteps OF the European crying
"Salam, Sahib" which is their way Of
saying ''Peace to you" Then slapplng
their hollow and naked stomachs to
emphasize their need OF food, they con-
tinue their piteous supplicatlons, beg
ging for enough food to keep them
alive just another hour. Sometimes a
mother accosts one, babe In her arms,
trying its little best to get food from the
dry parched breast-and this mother
will entreat you saying: "Glve us
something to eat and God will bless
you with mvny children" The group
of waits about her cling as If by in
stinct to her scant ragged skirts as il
they felt that since this woman ls a
mother to the babe she will act also as
kind mother to all who snuggle up
to her Hundreds OF orphan children
may also be seen in the Government
poorhouse and hospitals.
Saving the children in famine time
is one of the most encouraging phases
of relief WORK, while to see children
starve, to know that the helpless ones
cannot be helped, that they must die
by inches for want OF food, is knowl-
edge that wrings the heart Of every
christian mother and father. Thous-
ands of these orphans are now in the
hands of American missionaries having
been plucked by them from the jaws of
the famine. They must be turned out
to starve unless the missionaries re-
ceive the means to purchase food for
them.
Send money for these and the other
famine sufferers to this paper and 1t
will be- forwarded TO the India Famine
relief fund and will be cabled at once
to The Christian Herald lnter-De-.
nominational Committee OF American
missionaries In India for the aid of tho
starving.

A Wcrd With The Boys.

Boys seldom realize the value OF
the evening hours. If profitably en-
p!oyed the spare hours at the COM
msnd of every boy and girl would rem
der them intelligent and equip
them for life of usefulness. If
these spare hours are wasted, the
opportunity for securing an equipment
for life may never return. Increasing
years mean increasing duties, and ex-
acting demands upon cne's time.
The boy who spends an hour OF each
evening lounging Idly on street corn
ers wastes in the course of year, 800
hours, which, if applied to study would
acc uaint him with the rudimants of
the familiar sciences. If, in addition
to wasting an hour each evening he
spends 10 cts. for cigars, which is usu-
ally the case, the amount thus worse
than wasted would pay for ten OF tho
leading periodicals in the country.
Boys, think Of these things. Think
OF how much time and money you
are wasting, and for what? The
qualification afforded by q lounge on
the corner, or cigar, is not only tenn
porary, but positively hurtful. You
cannot indulge in them without seri-
ously injuring yourself. You acquire
idle and wastefui habits, which will
cling to you with each succeeding
year. You may In after life shake
them of, but the probabilities are that
the habits thus formed in early life
will remain with you till your dying
day. Be warned, then, in time, and
resolve that, as the hour spent In idle
ness is gone forever, you will improve
each passing one, and thereby fit your
self for usefulness and happiness.-Luth-
eran Observer.

Shifting Sands Of Political Favor.

The "other side" of political prefer
ment-the side about which we hear
so little--is shown by Joe Mitchell
Chapple In The National Magazine
for July -
There are many tragedies under the
brighter and more imposing scenes of
Washington life. In one of the cheap
ar restaurants in Washington, where
al egg, a roll and coffee may be secur-
ed tor nine cents, an old man was
speaking. 81 slept in the parks last
aight," he said to companion, II
could not sell muca yesterday"
Twenty years ago he was one OF the
most PROMINENT public men in Wash
ington. His signature, perhaps, re-
mains attached to many important
public documents. Now forgotten
and forsaken, sleeping in parks,
peddling medicines--all this among
the scenes Of his prosperity-he awaits
an obscure death. Few of his old
friends and acqaaintances remain at
the capital, and he is one Of many po-
litical ''derelicts" When the old
mans companion told me Of the mis-
fortunes OF this man, there was nothing
IN the recital to inspire a desire for
political career. The death of his wife
and two children was the blow that
crushed him, and the proud spirit was
broken when an unjust political perse
cution followed ana now he Is simply
called "queer." During the war he
rendered important aud valiant service
for the government, that called for
even more heroism than that required
on the battlefield, but the fact that he
die not bear arms, and defied his perse-
cutors in a political emb roglio later
left him an object of public charity.
