run a string over the top and through
a slit at each side, and tie it under
the chin. It may rattle a good deal
but may save you a headache.

Why do we wait ’til ears are deaf
Before we speak one kindly word.
And only utter loving praise
When not a whisper can be heard?
Why do we wait ’til hands are laid
Close-folded, pulseless, ere we place
Within them roses sweet and rare
And lilies in their flawless grace?
Why do we wait ’til eyes are sealed
To light and love in death’s deep
trance
Dear wistful eyes—before we bend
Above them with impassioned
glance?
Why do we wait ’til hearts are still
All papers for our next contest
must be in by the last day of
July. This gives you at least
six weeks of your vacation, and this
time you may have seven hundred
words with which to paint a vivid
word-picture of some beautiful scene
in nature near your own home.
You may put into it a touch of life
if you like, but the strongest feature
must be making your readers see the
scene as you see it.
Two years ago we were pained to
discover in our eight-year-old lad a
tendency to cheat in games.
He was intensely fond of playing
games with his father every evening
for half an hour before bed time.
Sometimes it was checkers, sometimes
dominoes, or again some of the simple
little card games, not sport cards
however.
Scarcely an evening passed that
the boy did not attempt, when he
thought he was not watched, to fur
ther his chances of victory by some
little dishonest move. This was very
discouraging, because in other ways
the child seemed perfectly frank, open
and truthful.
His father talked and reasoned with

The Boy Who Cheated
By MRS. M. S. NOBLE.
To tell them all the love is ours.
And give them such late meeds of
praise
And lay before them fragrant flow
ers?
How oft we, careless, wait ’til life’s
Sweet opportunities are past,
And break our alabaster box
Os ointment at the very last.
Oh, let us heed the living friends
Who walk with us life’s common
ways
Watching our eyes for look of love,
And hungering for a word of praise.
—Exchange.
Os course, the neatness of paper
and correctness of style must count
also.

him, and so did I, but with no appa
rent result. He showed remorse, but
it could not have been very real, as
he continued to cheat.
One evening in the midst of an excit
ing game of checkers the boy slyly
pushed one of his “men” to a more
advantageous position. His father
got up quickly from the table, and with
the brief remark, “I don’t care to play
with a cheat,” left the room.
The boy was broken-hearted and
apparently penitent. A little later,
when he was tucked in bed for the
night, his father came in to talk it
over, and simply said that from that
time on whenever he cheated the game
would stop at once just where it was.
The child loved his games, but more
than that he loved his father, and the
privilege of playing with him. From
that evening he really tried to over
come the fault, and one or two inflic
tions of the, to him, dreadful punish
ment, were sufficient for a perfect
cure. He is now ten and “plays the
game” fairly and squarely.—American

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION
Dear Little Mother:
I want to ask the all important ques
tion of the many boys and girls who
read our department. It is this:
Are you ready to die? Are you
ready to be judged? Are you ready
to meet your Saviour and say, “Lord I
have done my very best on earth?”
Can you say that?
Now, my dear friends, I am only a
little fourteen-year-old girl, but I want
to tell you, if you are not ready to do
this, you had better get ready and
stay ready all of the time.
Don’t say “Tomorrow I will do bet
ter or better,” for, if God should
call now, tomorrow would be too late.
The only safe time is today.”
Now, my dear readers, just think for
a minute, “if God should call now,
what would you do? How would J
feel when the judge came to me, when
I found that I had to leave my Church
who wanted to be my dearest friend,
and perish. No eternal life for me?”
Wouldn’t it be an awful ending for
Him to send us away from Him, to
the deepest, darkest and most horrible
pit ever made, because we would not
love Him or believe in Him?
“Now, let us think a minute of the
other side: of how grand it would be
for God to judge us and find that we
shall dwell in the palace of God for
ever, never to suffer again; no, never,
but be forever happy?
“Now, let us try working for God,
