PATHETIC PLEA FOR CHILDREN
Words of Charlti Klng.ley Worth

an of Any Worth.
Do not .lecelve yourselves about the
little dirty offensive children In the

they are not to him that made them
"Take heed that ye despise not one
of these little ones; for I say unto you
that In heaven their angels do always
behold the face of my father which
Is In heaven.' Is there not In every
one of them as In you the light that
llghteth every man that cometh into
the world? And k:.uw you not who that
light is and what he said of little
children? Then take heed I say lest
you despise one of these little ones.
Listen not to the Pharisee when he j
ays: Except the little child be con- ;
Terted. and become as I am he shall j
Id nowise nter Into the kingdom of I

who knew what Is in man when he
Jd: "Except ye be converted ye
hall not enter Into the kingdom of
beaten." Their souls are like their
bodlee not perfect but beautiful
enough and fresh enough to shame
anyone who shall dare to look down
nam them. Their souls are like their
bodies hidden by the rags foul with
the dirt of what we miscall civiliza-
tion. But take them to the pure
stream strip off the ugly shapeless
rags wash the young limbs again and
you shall find them body and soul
fresh and lithe graceful and capable
capable of how much God alone who
made them knows. Prom Charlea

Gerald Underhill drew in a deep
breath of the air of Broadway for It
was the first time he had been in
New York for almost eleven years.
While he was hesitating which way
to turn a crowd of people began pour-
ing out of the Times Square subway
station and a hand was laid familiarly
on his shoulder.
"Jerry Underhill!" Tom Sandford
laughed heartily. "Well of all things!
When did you get In from the Klon
dike?"
About an hour ago. Gee Tom it
Is good to see you again!" Underhill
beamed on his friend. "I only ar-
rived about an hour ago and I'm lone-
ly already."
"I'm aorry old man" Tom gripped
his hand fondly. "I'm late for a busi-
ness engagement now or I'd stick with
you all day. But come up to dinner
tonight and we can talk it oyer. Here."
Tom hastily scribbled the addreaa on
a card and handed It to Jerry. "Then
we will expect you?"
Jerry amiled and thankfully accept-
ed the invitation at once Then in a
serious manner he said:
"You don't know any nice girl who
could marry a miner do you?"
"I don't" then amiled knowingly
"but my sister Alice may. We can
ask her about it tonlg-ht."
They shook hands again and part-
ed. Jerry tucked the card Bafely in
hie pocketbook and turned his steps
slowly up Broadway.
D!aner was over at the Sandfords'
and Jerry with a long cigar sat lis-
tening to the plans being made for
the finding of a wife for him.

home each afternoon at 5 o'clock. He
met a new girl every dsv a. arrporf
and among the lot were some of the
noted beauties of New York.
To Jerry thev Were nil wnnHorftil
but none more so than Alice Sand-

mnro as t" days passed.
Tlic allotted month had hrnnht tin
decision and Jerry at a loss what to
say. sat awaiting the coming of Alice.
A perturbed frown was on his hand-
some face and a great unrest In his
heart.
"I must say Mr. Underhill you are
a disappointment to me." Alice more
vexed than she cared to admit looked
across the room at Jerry.
"I know I must be and I'm truly
sorry" he spoke earnestly; "but can
I help It If I don't love any of the
beautiful ladles?"
"N'o. I supore not; but." a ray of
hope had come to her "do men al-
ways know when they are In love?"
"Maybe not." He rose and came
toward hrr. "You have been so good
to me. I wish I could have wanted
one of them for my wife." He took
her hand "fioodhy; you sec. I want-
ed a girl and they all seemed so
worldly too wise for a weslerr. life."
She watched him get Into the wnit.
