Little Bellies Prayer

A pretty girl of years was playing with
her dog on the carpet of an upper ROOM
when her mother called to her, "Puggy, you
better come down soon, as supper Is nearly
ready"
The girl said "All right, mother" Then
taking her dog Fido, in her arms she said :
My name is Belle and l don't like to have
everyone call me PIGGY just because l
have a pug nose, and l wish they would
not do It, Papa said once that when trouble
came to tell God all about it, and ask His
help, and l Just believe I'll do II right
now because it hurts my feelings when
papa and mamma and every body calls me
Puggy.'''
So the little girl knelt down with Fido
in her arms and said: "Oh, God, you ought
to know how much my feelings are hurt
everyday when they all call me 'Puggy'
just because l have a pug nose. Now, God,
did not make my own nose; You made It
a pug nose, and can't help 1t, and I've
go to wear this pug nose, but 1 wish You
would make them call me Belle, as that
is my right name, and have them never
call me Piggy again. Oh! God, 1 pray
You to hear my prayer. Amen"
Then she stroked Fido and said: ct do
believe God will hear my prayer and any
way feel better now" The little girl did
not hear her mothers steps on the stair
way as she descended, for the mother had
come to call her daughter to supper and
heard all Of Bellies talk to Fido and also
her prayer to God. The mother choked
down her feelings and wiped her eyes as
she reached the dining room and told her
husband of Bellies prayer, and they at
once concluded TO deal better with their
daughter in the future. Then the father
stepped to the door Of the stairway and
said: Come, Belle. supper is now ready"
And the little girl clasped Fido in her
arms and said; God certainly heard my
prayer, FIdo."
And the name of "Puggy' was heard no
more In that home.

MOTHER OF SIXTEEN SOLDIERS
Woman HOnOred for Giving Most
Sons TO Union Nears 111th
Birthday.


Mrs. Sarah Brandon Of MoundsviIle, w.
Va, whose picture the government placed
in the national gallery at Washington in
recognition Of the fact that she gave more
sons to the civil war than any other wo-
man OF her country, will be Ill year old in
April She was the mother OF twenty
three children, all boys but one. Sixteen
Of tho boys served in the war, fourteen
with the union and two with the con-
federGcy. Her native state OF Ohio also
honored her by placing her likeness on
the wall of the state gallery at Columbus.
Mrs Brandon is hale and hearty. She
does all her own homework and cult
Yates a small garden patch in the rear OF
her home. She smokes a pipe constantly,
favoring only the strongest tobacco. With
out the pipe she says she grows nervous
and lonesome.
The little house in which she resides
snuggies against a hill within a few yards
OF the city limits OF the Ohio river town,
and every week Mrs. Brandon can be seen
vending her way 70 the city for supplies
for her Sunday dinner.
She has but one deformity. A hundred
years ago, while playing with her brother,
the lad accidentally shot an arrow from
his miniature bow at her, the dart piercing
her right eye, destroying the sight.
Fifteen OF her sons are living. The Oldest
Is Hiram Brandon OF Bellaire, o., 80 years
old, who works every day at a hot fur
mace in steel mill and boasts that he
was never sick day in his life Her
youngest son. Evan Brandon OF Mounds
Vile is 20 years old and digs coal. He car
ries scars from bullet and saber wounds
received while fighting for the union In
the civil war. All the children OF Mrs
Brandon became parents Of large families,
the Oldest and youngest each having nine
children.
Before her marriage Mrs. Brandon was
/Hiiss sarah Barker. She was born In Bel
mont county, Ohio, her father being a
pioneer OF that section. She can recall
events during the Mexican war and
skirmishes which her father and neigh
bors participated In against rowing and un-
settled bands Of Indians At the axe OF
Is she was married to Ebenezer Rrardon.

Manure From the Barnyard.

Manure from the barnyard adds hui
mus to the soil, and humus acts like a
sponge, retaining moisture in the soil,
making it more capable of absorbing
heavy rainfall and of holding it there
longer. The moral, therefore, is to
save and carefully spread all barnyard
manure over the fields. Manure is
worth dollars and will put dollars into
the farmers pockets.

1 Marguerite Audou1, Partisan sew
Ag woman, has recently received the
Ise of 1900 offered by La Vie Heu-
REESE for the best book published in
France during the year. The book.
Marie Claire" Is for the most part
photographed It consists of Incl
dents in the life of Mile. Audoux, who
did not begin writing until few years
ago. when she was obliged to give up
sewing on account Of threatened blind
ness. Mile. Audoux confesses to little
knowledge of French writer's, but the
novels of Charles Dickens and Charles
were her favorite reading. She says
that these novels and the Bible con-
stituted her sole literary training. The
book in France has already gone into
its tenth edition and is soon to be
translated into English.
Octave Mirbeau, noted French
critic, says: .sArtistically it is the equal
of any work by the great authors of
France. It's exquisite charm lies in its
fine simplicity and absolute sincerity"
Says Wife Should Aid In Business.
Lady Hope thinks woman who
helps her husband with his business is
the ideal helpmeet. "A mans two am
bitions." says she, ARE his home and
his career His home is often the max
ing of his career, if he has tactful,
restful wife of a cheerful and happy
disposition. l cannot help thinking the
ideal woman should be true to the first
pattern She must be helpmeet to
the man. Tt is not good for man to
live alone were the initiatory words
pronounced on her Introduction to this
beautiful world. Today, though thou
sands of years have passed by since
then, the same motto holds good, and
men who have the truest views OF life
and its responsibilities will be found to
concur in it. Woman finds her great
est rewards in life by maintaining her
rightful position-that is. by being
good mother, good daughter and a
rood sister and, above all, good wife.
Could any one estimate her influence
too highly u she fills these positions
