The Land Boat.

81 wonder if this strong wind would
blow me along in my cart" Willis
thought, one day in March.
The little fellow took his seat in the
express and held up the long tongue.
The wind moved him little, to be
sure, but it was rather slow.
"I'll spread an umbrella" was Will
lis's next thought.
Whizz-zz-zz! how the cart did go!
Rattle, rattle, rattle! But. alas! bang
it went against tree. For, you see,
Willis couldn't hold the umbrella as
it filled with wind. and guide his cart,
too.
II know! I'll make real sail! And
rig it like boat" said Willis.
So Willis went to work. First, he
nailed a mast to the middle of the
cart; and to this he fastened his moth
er's blue kitchen apron. 1t was a
funny looking sail to be sure! But
you should have seen the cart GO
spinning down the street.
Everybody laughed, and all the
boys wanted to take a ride.
"Is there anything left of my kitch-
en- apron?" his mother asked, when
he came in to tea.
ION, yes" Willis answered. mot

Then papa and mamma laughed
Willis couldn't quite see why; but
the next morning when Willis went
out to get his cart, there it stood with
big, white. real canvas sail! for
you see, papa had cut it out for him
and mamma Ito save the other string
of her apron, I suppose!) had sewed
it upon the ropes, SO that it could be
raised or reefed. Primary Education

New York.-Ira D. Sankey. known
as an evangelist throughout the Chris

home In Brooklyn.
Mr.. Sankey was sixty-eight years old.
For the last five years he had been
blind and had suffered from . compli-

work. But almost to the very last he
worked at hymn writing. His tours

Among Mr. Sankey's most familiar
compositions are "The Ninety and
Nine" and when the Mists have
Rolled Away"
His songs are said to have had cir
culation of more than 50,000,000 copies.
He was rapid composer and wrote
book after book of gospel hymns. Dur
ing the last five or six years Of his life
he was interested in preparing and pub
fishing the story of the gospel hymns.
At the same time he saved his wonder
full voice for posterity by singing into
monographs. The records were sent
all over the world. Sankey first met
Moody at Young Mems Christian as
sociation convention In Indianapolis.
Moody was SO charmed with the young
mans voice that he urged him to ac-
company him on his evangelistic tours.
Sankey explained that he was married
and could not give up his position.
You must coms," said Moody, Il
cannot get along without you."
Sankey consulted his wife and they
cast their let with Mr.. Moody. They
visited Great Britain from 1873 to 1873
and again in 1888 and made tours
throughout the United States. When
Mr.. Moody died Mr.. Sankey felt keen

he tried to conduct the work alone,

voice attracted attention in the Hamlet

active life he was Methodist, but for
the last seven years he had been a
