Why the Boy Gave Thanks.
Alan had played the entire day with little brother without an impatient 'word. After saying his customary prayer that night, his mother suggested that he add: “I thank God I was not impatient with little brother today.” This he did with much fervency; after which he remarked that there were some other things' he would like to thank God for, and forthwith he closed his eyes and said: “I thank God I offered my candy to father before taking any myself. “I thank God I offered my candy to mother before taking any myself. “I thank God I offered my cfendy to little brother before taking any myself. “And I thank God there was some left.” —Lipplncott’s.
