With The Faith Of A Child.

The dying Archbishop Ryan, who passed away
last week, said that he wanted o'go to God the
Father.
This great and good was like a little child,
when his hour came. He had played hard with this
world IS playthings, and tired. All his labors,
duties, amusements, his ambitions and energies
were at an end and he wanted to go to sleep IN his
fathers care. Like babe, this successful honored
man put his confidence in the Father believing with
all an infants belief that his father loved and would
protect and give rest and peace.
is there anything more beautiful, more precious
in this life than conception of God as father? 10
the Father even the good archbishop or the great In
any vocation, stretches out weakening hands, ap-
peals with failing eyes and murmrs with stiffenng
lips Father'' in the pathetic helpessness but also
in the absolute confidence of childhood FEATHER,
Tn tired. Take me!''
We have often wondered how parents cold sur
vive the placing of their dear children in the cold
ground of the cemetery never in this life, to again
see their pretty faces hear their happy laughter and
songs. Maybe it's because they can picture their
darlings safe the breast held in the arms Of the
Father, where sorrow, sin, cold and hunger cannot
come where divine parental love and peace and hap
piness always abide
AT 70 years of age, the good Archbishop Ryan felt
like child and asked for his Father. He knew that
the Fathers love ''smpasseth all understanding
save that of little child whose love and confidence
mean understanding.

A man had such a tender heart
that he in silence wept apart, to
think that in some distant years
about two billion it appears-the
sun would lose its solar heat, its
system be wrecked complete, and
what we call the human race would
freeze and die-a sorry case. He
wept so much and wept so long he
really di himself wrong, neg
lecting those precautions wise for
years approved in mortal eyes. At
last one day he froze and died, a
fire neglecting to provide.

hustle NOW to beat the band.
