Sam Hughitt, who, like Topsy. rays
he has NO parents, but lives with his
uncle out at the West end, saved .
penniless stranger from the police sta
ton the other night by paying for his
supper At one of the Bowery restAu-

With about IS cents worth Of papers.
Sam remembered that, and when the
stranger couldn't settle his bill At the
restaurant, he came forward with
three Of his hard-earned nickels and
paid for the supper.
It made no difference to Sam that
the man was very much intoxicated.

have placed before the mind Of an in
FAINT child every day as a part Of q
paryer the thought Of death. as in III

Ia 1t not a serious experiment, this
constant placing the thought OF death
not only. but Of Sudden DEATH" be.
for the mind of a child every day and
day after day Of life, and might 1t not
tend to result in early death?
The mind Of a child is most impress
sionable. 1t should not be allowed to
contemplate death. and especially the
fear Of death, %habitually. Its teach
ings should be the Joy Of life, Of
health, Of strength, Of the Infinite. The
