Is Tired Of Praying.

A little girl in st. Louis the other
evening was going through the usual
form of prayer: God bless mamma,
and papa and make me good girl"
and SO on, when all at once she
semed to come to decision. "Now
that is the last time 1 am going to
say that prayer" she said, very grave
ly, looking at her mother. "You are
older than 1 am and it is your place
to ask for all those things and don't
see any use in two peoples asking
the same thing" Since then she has
firmly refused to pray, insisting that
it is her mothers place to ask God
for blessings.

SO much SO that I literally tore the
skin off in shreds in seeking relief.
The awful itching interfered with my

ointments and lotions but received
practically no benefit. Finally I SET

In the Chemistry Class.


In local technical school one OF
the simpler courses of instructions is
that of drilling students in the chemi

substances.
For instance the student must know
very early in his studies to refer to
water as H2O.
Some days ago new pupil was
asked to give the sign for water, and
although it is one of the first learned

of technical schools, he was stumped
