Little Elsie, aged five, was quietly
playing on the front porch one after
noon, while her father and one of his
friends were enjoying smoke and
having chat on political matters.
They paid no attention to the little
girls presence, and Elsie seemed
wholly absorbed in her dolls.
That evening Elsie appeared to be
unusually silent and thoughtful. When
bedtime came and she knelt down to
say her prayers there came the usual
petitions, and then, with slight pause,
she resumed in a very earnest manner:
"And now, God, please take good
care of yourself, for if anything should
happen to you, we should have only

as to the proper place to put the

Napkins should have the initials in

are the only ones on which a wreath

he went over slowly and Of which
there were scores, presented an art
that only few have been capable of.
He had caught character and life in
