Her Prayer.

Gladys had lost two front teeth,
says Lippincott's. She had been told
that God would give her some new
ones. She was to take part in the
Easter exercises at Sunday school. In
spite Of all wishing, however, the teeth
refused to put in on appearance, and
Easter was at hand.
One night Gladys mother heard her
talking after she had put. her to bed.
She went back and saw her kneelIng
beside her bed in the moonlight.

No Fourth part.

A farmer tells of an old Irishman in
his employ whom he once permitted to
make use of certain land for farming
purposes on condition that Pat should
give him one-fourth of the crop he
raised.
At the harvesting of the crop the
farmer was amazed TO find the Irish
man had not kept his part of the
agreement, for while he hauled away
three wagon loads of produce, he had
not sent single load to his masters
barn.
The farmer called Pats attention to
the fact that lie had taken the entire
crop, asking:
Snow, how's that, Pat? Wasn't 1
to receive a fourth of the crop?"
"You was, sir-you was" cxcitedly
exclaimed the Irishman. but there's

Sheep and Hens and Wool and Eggs.

Is 1t not certain that this industry
