A PRAYER.

A little girl of or was quietly
playing on the porch one afternoon
wis her father and one Of his
friends were enjoying a smoke and a
chat or political matters. They paid
no attention to the little girl, who in
turn seemed entirely absorbed in her
dolls and her Teddy bear.
When the guest was gone, and bed
time came, the child's mother noticed
that she was unusually silent and
thoughtful Anwhen she knelt to say
her prayers there was a pause after
the usual petitions. and then she re-
sumed very earnestly:
And. now, God, please take great
care of yourself, for if anything should
happen to you, we would only have

discover that his wife was all tired

gratefully mine. Mary Forest.
I put the letter in the drawer with
the gloves that were supposed to be

Yesterday had accomplished no.
