Show His Prayer Anawered. A certain ' Chicago coal man enjoys nothing more than he does a romp with his two pretty Ihjvs. After supper every ev-ery night he has great fun with them. Ono evening last week his wife was taken sick, and ho cut short the usual romp, much to the disappointment of the boys, who had' been looking forward all day to his homecoming. He told them it was timo for them to go to bed, and, like obedient boys, they walked off without a word of remonstrance. Silently Silent-ly they disrobed and prepared to retire. The larger boy said hi prayer and found his way between the sheets. Then the little fellow knelt down by the bedside, uttered his prayer aud added: "Please, God, make papa funny some more." And the father, who had been waiting just outside the door to see that they retired all right, overheard tho petition and went in and gave his two boys another great romp. The little fellow then retired re-tired in the firm belief that his prayer had been answered. Chicago Herald. |
