A Deserted Wife's Prayer.

Mrs. Caroline Gray was summoned
other day in eviction proceedings in
stituted by her landlord.
The lawyer for the landlord showed
that the woman had paid no rent for
three months. She told the judge
that her husband had deserted her,
that she had three little children,
that she had worked hard to earn
bread and the rent. but that she had
failed. Reluctantly the court gave
Judgment for the landlord. Then the
woman broke down and cried %
where can l go?" she walled.
Her misery and despair touched the
heart of the Judge. Taking IS bill
from his pocket and putting it in his
hat. he directed the court officer to
take up collection. The hat came
back with $50.
The judge gave the money to Mrs.
Gray. who stammered out her thanks.
and handed it to the lawyer for the
landlord. Instead of taking all of it
for his client he handed her back SIS.
and receipt for three months rent,
announcing that he himself would pay
SIG, one months rent, for her.
Then the deserted wife dropped 10
her knees in open court and prayed:
