AN OUT OF DATE PRAYER.

A Chicago Woman's club has
decided that the old, familiar
prayer: "Now lay me-" must
be relegated to the limbo of the
obsolete. 1t Is shocking, says
one Mrs. Edgar A. Hall, presi-
dent of the club.
The last lines of the prayer,
particularly, are horrible" says
the president.
''Now l lay me down to sleep.
! pray the Lord my soul to keep,
And if die before l wake
Ispray the Lord my soul to take"
"Tho idea of death during the
night" continues the president
of this organization which has
for its object the reconstruction
of the universe upon the most
esthetic lines, "the idea of death
during the night is a horrible
thing to drill into the mind of a
young child. l never use it. ="
The president of the club had
a substitute to offer, as follows:
''Father, we thank Thee for the night
And for the pleasant morning light,
For rest and food and loving care,
AVld oil hat C.
Beautiful! Exquisite So tran
quilizing!" murmured the assem-
bled audience. And now the old
prayer is under the ban, and the
club has decided that it would be
an extremely wicked thing for
any mother to scare her child by
teaching it.
Perhaps only those who are
experts in matters of prayer
should volunteer criticism on
such subject. But for our part
we can't see where the more
esthetic version discounts the
old-fashioned prayer in any par
ticlar. The new one is a nice,
meaningless little rigmarole-
but how about the countless
children who have had very little
opportunity to lay their small
hands upon the flood and loving
care and all that makes the world
so fair?-Atlanta Journal.

Queer Young Man Buost into Tears When

New Haven, Conn, March Is.
"A man about twenty-five years
of age came to the summer cot
tage of Mrs. Ella Wheeler Wilcox

yesterday, and said he had come
to marry her. He declared that
she knew all about his intentions.
Mrs. Miller, who has charge of
the cottage in the absence of Mrs.
Wilcox and her husband, told the
young man that Mrs. Wilcox was
in California and was already
married. At this the young man
burst into tears. He had pecu-
liar bundle tied with strings and
leather bands and wore a red
bandanna about his neck. He
went away refusing to leave his

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

When a man is a coward you
can scare him by telling him
there is nothing to be scared of.
A girl has an idea that being
President of the United States is
almost as nice as chocolate
creams.
A girl with pretty ankles would
rather wear laced boots so they
can keep coming united for some
man to tie again.
Education is all the thing you
don't learn when you go to col
lege.
It's queer how long it takes a
mans wife to get over the idea
that his lap was made to sit in.
There is hardly anything so foolish as
imagining that people are crazy to be
reformed.
A woman loves to give information,
specially if it isn't.
Women mostly think about their
children and men about themselves.
There is no use borrowing trouble
when people will give it toy you outright.
You pay an extra high price for life
insurance and somebody else gets what
you buy.
An automobile is rigid economy com
pared with wife.
Once in while boy knows enough
not to know more than his father.
A woman isn't half as afraid of
burglars revolver as he is of her
scream.
1t is a much better guess to be made
a fool of by woman than to think she
is the one. New York Press.

CAN SEE ONLY
in THE DARK
Villagers Say Young wolcOtt Cried His
Sight Out at the Bier of His Bride

Pittsfeld, Mass, March Is
Dazed and blinded by daylight,
Henry Wolcott, of Cheshire, sees
clearly at night and penetrates
into the darkest gloom without
difficulty. So completely has his
day sight left that he is unable
to discern faces or localities by
day. He spends his time almost
alone, doing his own cooking and
household work, sleeping by day
and living in a darkened house.
Wolcott attributes his affliction
to his having been ''moonstruck"
a superstition which is deeply
imbedded in New England folks
here. Moonlight nights afford
him the greatest pleasures and
he revels in the soft light, going
forth after dark for exercise and
recreation. He is known to the
villagers as the Human Owl. "
Until within a few years he
possessed normal sight. He was
accomplished and popular and no
social entertainment was COM
plete without his presence. He
went west, where he married
and settled. His wife died soon
after their marriage, and it is
gossip in Cheshire that following
the flood of grief and tears shed
over her bier and grave the
strange malady came upon him
and gradually his sight failed.
In this condition he returned to
to Cheshire and shut himself in
his house away from friends.

The tide of settlers is now turn

former recently as to its admis-

ed to stem the northward drift
and it is also possible that the
present cold winter has naturally
turned the minds Of settlers tc
the lands of sun instead of snow

clothes was found on the railroad

Did you ever notice that some
