apparently absorbed in the beautiful
picture before her, was a fair young
girl, with a face too sad and careworn
for one so young. Suddenly a look of
pain crossed her face, and her sweet
lips trembled as the voice of her litttle
brother reachrd her, say ing in _plnintive
tones: ‘°Mamma, does heaven ook like
that, and am I to go there soon ?”
Forcing back the tears which would
till her eyes, she turned to the window
where the little sufferer lay, and said in
gentle voice: ‘°YVhat, Bertie, dear !
Would you leave mamma and me all
alone ?” And the child, seeing the
grieved look on his sister’s face, smiled
sweetly and answered.
“O no,Lil; but it does look so pretty,
and papa is there, you know.”
And she knew that unless they could
pvc cure the necessary medicine for him
ne, too, would be there with papa.
Soon her thoughts went back sadly
to the time, only a. short year ago. when
surrounded by everything a !alher’s
loving care could suggest, she had not
one thought or wish ungratified; then
lot the dark days which followed so
swiftly on her fathers death, and the
struggle with poverty since; but she
resolved that~in some way she must
save her brother’s life. To resolve was
to do with Lillian, and entering the
room where her mother sat sewing, she
said cheerfully;
“Mamnalthink I will take Mrs.
