Out of the Mouths of Babes.
Little Julia’s mother had just re- ’ turned from a visit to the hairdresser with her hair all fluffy. “Oh, mamma,” cried Julia, “who fricasseed your hair?” “Listen, Elva,” said the fond mother, “and I’ll read to you aboyt heaven and its beautiful golden streets.” “Never mind, mamma,” replied the little miss, “I’d rather wait until I get there and be s’prised." Clara, aged five, was hurrying to bed, being very weary after a long journey, when her- mother reminded her that she had fofrgotten to say her prayer. Dropping on her knees by the side of her cot and folding her hands she said: “Please, Lord, what I said last night i goes tonight. Amen.”
