TEXT TAKEN TOO LITERALLY
Ten.Year.old Julia Gets Into Bad
Graees Of Mother by Giving
Tramp a HaIf-DolIar.

"Be not forgetful to entertain
strangers; for thereby some have en-.
tertained angels unawares."
The foregoing quotation is from
chapter 13, verse 2, Book of Hebrews,
and 1t is introduced solely because it
constitutes vital part Of this story.
Julia is ten years old and she goes to
Sunday school. 1t appears that on a
recent occasion the Sunday school
teacher had considerable to say about
this matter Of entertaining angels
unawares." Anyway, it made a deep
Impression with Julia.
A few days after the lesson Julia's
mother left her in charge Of the house
for few hours. When the mother re-
turned she went to a particular cup
In the cupboard to extract therefrom
one-half dollar. In this cup is kept
the family pin money, and Julla's
mother knew that she had put fifty
cents there before she had gone out.
But the half dollar was gone. There
was an expression Of anxiety on
Julia's face and mother scented mis-.
chief.
did you take that money! asked
the mother, somewhat severely.
Julia broke into tears. "I gave 1t to
= man that came to the back door,"
sobbed the little girl.
Gave 1t to a mani" exclaimed the
mother. What for?"
II thought he might be God" tear
fully replied Julia.-Kansas City Star.
