During her slecp she had either failen or climbed out of her little bed and, wandering about the room, kad lost all her bearings, being un- able to again gain ker couch, Sleep hung heavy upon me, for the @Gay's labors had been great, and tired nature craved a season of rest, In tier baby voice she calked, “Papa, gake licr hand; papa, take her hand!” Out of the mystery of sleep came the baby voice so quietly, so tenderly, not disturbed, but confident that cunmber voice whisper somewhere in that darkness rested!: one whose loving duty it was to take ber hand, that it required many rep- _etitions of the baby voice’s beseech- ing to call me fully to my senses. My awakening was so gradual that 1 cculd hardly realize that it was any- thing but a dream, so softly, so sweetly and so serene came the baby voice, “‘Papa, take her hand.” Finally awakened, 1 followed the leading of that little sound, and tak- Ing baby by the hand lifted her into ker couch, where, once more secure, ghe reposed herself to slumber. 8o it is throuzh life. Occasionally we geem to plunge deeply into the very heart of «arkness itself. grope about to feel some tangible thing to clasp, to seck soume light, some avenue from that inky damkness. Sometimes, after all our own resources have become exhausi- ed in our forlorn and dreary stale, wg¢ cry out in the darkness of de- gpair, Papa, take my hand!" or, if “pot in that baby speech and tone, Wo ray ol then, “Father, lend me your hnnal.”' Add in the soul of Him who so criel out, full of the same unrestraingu confidence that possessed the mind of my little one on that dark night, was it ever the case that some hand did not reach into that darkness, into that gloom and with the same tender touch lead from that pit His child? Sometimes that Hand is never scen. Bometimes it comes in such devious ways and uses such inconceivabla means that we reaiize it not; but whatever the means employed it is sho same tender Hand, dominated v, ‘he same unflinching Will, and I. leads: unerringly to light those W%, for a time, had lost hope. These are the tests that bring out the qualities of men. Some there are who cannot bear the test, and In thelr despair cry out, sending fortn a wail of criticism of others that thus they have been so placed. Thev have not learned the beauty of ex- bausting the very last resource of #hich they are capable, of blamins no ome else for their failures, of holding on to the bitterest end, and then appealing, in the fullest confi- dence that it would not be deniel ford some one to reach into tha/ ~ Jarkness a hand. | upply to the Homorable R §Cogyrigk drdsrwapd 4 5 v ind ‘e picture shows the four comvicted police inspecto:s of New York boarding the boat for Blackweli's isiand, | to which place they were sentenced to serve one year ani pay a flne of $500 each on a charge of conspriacy. | From left to right—Inspector Sweeney (extreme left in background), the heavy-set man next to him is Inspector | Murtha, next to him is Inspector Musrsey, and the man trying to hide behind his hat is Inspector Thompsou.
