Sings Praises of Normandy.
A traveler in France writes: “Nor
mandy is sweet, clean, green and pros
perous. Its iris-crowned thatches are
the most beautiful, its posy gardens
the most sedulously nurtured and its
farmyards the most enchanting in all
France. Its cows are sleek and good
milkers, its horses world famous and
its blonde women—even those sea
soned by field labor—always sphinx
like and often fair. It is attractive,
sensuously speaking, at every season,
and tho Normans, with all their droll
fears for their pocket books, are not
bad company in the long run.”
Mother's Comfort.
Little Pearl’s baby sister had died
before it was a week old. and sorrow
reigned in the home. Pearl had not
seen much of the new baby, but was
Just as grieved as the rest of the
household. After the funeral, how
ever, she seemed to think It was he>
duty to comfort her mother, who was
much shocked one day to hear Pearl
say In the most serious of tones:
“Mamma, I wouldn’t cry if I was you.
I think God only sent that baby on
approval, anyway.’’—Lipplncott’s.
