much known outside the four walls of her house
hold and In charity or two, but who yet left an
aching void behind her when she passed on into
the larger life. No who knew her could help
recognizing the simple completeness of the state
ment From her husband to her housemaid. every
one in the family felt his or her daily way smooth

gentleness She was living example of George
Eiots saying: What do live for if it is not to
make life less difficult for each other?"
To some girls and women this seems a small

One Monday Steve, who had been at church the

ton. He stood stool and spoke very loud
This is part of the sermon that he preached:
This is to be a 'mind-mo sermon There
are two ways in which you ought to mind every
thing she says:
Mind her the very first time she speaks When
mother says, Mary, please bring me some coal or
water or run to the store, don't answer In lust

great deal longer than the the clock ticks off
When you say yes with your lips, say yes with

THEATERs AND CRIME.

That there is intimate connection between
the theater and the prevalence of crime is com
ing to be more fully acknowledged than hereto
fore. The bulk of plays exhibited have de-
moralizng influence on the mpressionable mind
of the young, which shows itself in the lowered
moral standard well in actual vice and
crime In seeking for the of it, theater
manager himself attributes much of it directly
to the theaer He ought to know and his
words ought to be needed by parents who in
the habit of allowing their children to attend
the play house. Before the West End Women's
Club of Chicago, Mr.. A. NJ Bennett theatrical
manager, is reported as saying:
The plays produced in the outlying theaters
are the forerunners of the outrages holdups and
robberies which form the of crime we are
now experiencing Never before in the history
of the country has a theater censorship been
so needed. People should not let young girls
and children go to plays till they know pretty
definitely what those plays are After years of
experience and study, / have to the con-
clusion that the stage is bad place for almost
any young woman.

SIDNEY AND HIS PENNY.

Sabbath-school over, and Sidney was waiting
in church for the service to begin. Grandma and
mamma were sitting in the pew behind him. He
had promised to give a penny every Sabbath to
the church, and he had a little envelope to put 1t
in. He thought he would get it ready while he
was waiting, but. oh, dear! when he went to put
the penny into the envelope he couldn't open it;
he had been carrying it in his warm pocket and it
was stuck together. He held 1t up for mamma to
see Grandma whispered, "Give 1t to me- perhaps
can open It," Sidney shook his head. mo.
am not going to put my penny in to-day One
penny doesn't do much good"
Then he had to turn around, because the minis
ter began to speak
Zone penny doesn't do much good" why, one
penny will buy little tract which will tell some
about Jesus.
Tt will buy pretty card which will please some
poor sick child in hospital.
Tt will buy loaf of bread in Turkey, which
will feed three or four hungry children.

OUR LITTLE DARLINGs.
Bu Mor0dretfd A1ures K0rr

By MGrgdrettd AyreS Kari.
We laid them on the softest breast,
A little while to sleep and rest:
From out our arms a little while,
To wake and meet Gods loving smile;
Some day to newly fold and rock
The little darlings of our flock.
But how we miss the sunny smile,
The look of love TO us beguile;
The closer nesting to the heart,
At every sudden fear and start:
Some day we'll newly fold and rock
The little darlings of our flock.
The patter of the tiny feet
Whose music made our pulses beat:
The mamma" in the sweetest tone,
That claimed us for their very own:
Some day We'll newly fold and rock
The little darlings of our flock.
Some day when God shall us await.
Well see them at the golden gate,
More sweet, more lovely than of yore
To greet, to part with them no more;
Some day to newly fold and rock
The little darlings of our flock

Dolly's home is swept all through,
Chairs and table look like new,
Dolly's little mother, May,
Has been cleaning house to-day.
Picture books, goodly row,
Such pretty order show;
Games and blocks, ball put in place;
Pencils in the drawing case
I'm so tired" says little May,
1--WE been cleaning house to-day"

door key hung outside house in Sweden is
sign that the family not at home. The GUS
tom is more courteous to callers than the Ameri-
can practice of allowing the visitor to "fnd out
by ascertaining' through futile bell ringing or
button punching, but it requires greater conf
dence in your fellow-man, justifabe perhaps in
Sweden.
