CHILDRENs PRAYERS EFFACIoUs
Cincinnati Traction Magnate Shows
Gratitude to Orphans.

Once upon a time, nearly twenty
years ago. big. healthy man, living
in Washington, d. Ca, was stricken
i'll and death apparently lowered over
his bed. Famous doctors were called.
They said he had typhoid fever and
in such severe form that they shook
their heads despairingly. The power
full, body OF the afflicted man grew
shfunken and his friends feared the
worst. But there were other callers
at the house besides the great and
learned physicians. The poor little
orphans OF the city came. They knew
nothing OF medicine, but they had an
innocent faith in God. So they pray
cd every day for the patient and Ii"
was restored to health. The patient
was kesley Schoepf, now president
of the Cincinnati Traction company,
and ever since his touching experi1
ence with the orphans he has had the
warmed spot in his heart reserved for
them. Every year Mr.. Schoepf gives
all the little waits in Cincinnati an
outing at the Zoo. and the 1913 out
ing was held Thursday.
