Mr. F., churn agent, sent in some money “to be used for some little child that may have been forgotten.” ‘ God loveth a cheerful giver,”— and the “little Cape, children” will gratefully remember this kind stranger, and good clothing thus provided for them. The other, wms a huge box of gifts, each one bearing the name of some little chid in the eommunity.Not one was forgotten, and as the tired and sleepy little ones stepped up to re- ceive the package, the alacriy with which they devoured the contents, showed that the big man with the bigger heart, would always hold a warm place in their affections.
