GETTING LOST.

l am going to tell about the time
I got lost 1t was two years ago,
but l got so scared that l have
never forgotten it,
l started out to walk around the
square, but went farther than
that. Soon, l looked around and
didn't see any house or building |
knew. Then sat down on the
stone step and began to cry. After
awhile, a woman came up to me
and said, whats the matter, little
sirl-why, Ruth" said a voice that
sounded very kind to me.
stopped crying and looked up and
saw Aunt Anna. Starr looking at
me. She wasn't really my aunt.
just called her that. told her
was lost and that | was so far away
from home. But she laughed, then.
You are only five squares from
home,' she said Come along
with me and we will soon find it."
So she went home with me stop
ping in a little grocery store and
buying a big bag of candy. When
we were in front of my house, she
handed me the bag, and said,
Now, take this, and don't worry.
And don't wander so far away
from home again till you get to be

A STRANGE METHOD

There was once a little boy walk
ing along the road. His hat blew
off over a high fence, into an ad-
joining field. He did not feel
tempted to climb the fence: so he
knelt in one corner of the field
and began to say bis ABCs. A
gentleman slipped quietly up be-
hind him and stood there listening
to the boy for moment. Then he
asked the boy why he was saying
his ABCs.
The boy replied, "The wind blew
my hat over the fence into an ad.
joining field, and the fence was too
high for me to climb"
But the man said, But why did
you say your ABC's instead of say
ing real prayer"
Then the boy said, II didn't know
any prayers, SO l Just said my
ABC's and knew that the Lord will
know how to put them together
and make a prayer.
The gentleman laughed and
climbed over the fence and got the
hat and gave it to the boy.
II knew the Lord would answer
my prayer?" said the boy.
