A Queer Compact.
Van is seven years old and biles to go to .Sunday school. One day lie found his best loved friend, the house eat. as old as himself, stretched out on the ground in the garden. His cries brought his mother. who did al! she could for. a poisoned and apparently fast dying cat, but it seemed of no avail. As a last desperate resort Van knelt down beside the poor creature and. clasp ing his hands, upturned his tear-stained face and prayed, “Dear God, make my eat well! Make her well! Oh, dear God. if you will I’ll go to Sunday school every time this summer and not wait to Im* spanked!” The eat got well and tan faithfully kept his compact with God.
