Near the Fif.h Avenue, lies a poo widow who looks for us to>day. She ha been confined toher bed these four week and seems dangerously sick. The shan ty is scarce protection for cattle, ant how one can ever be we'll here, is mys tery. These four boys are her only dc pendence, The oldest is Is years-bu they are all very sickly looking, anc suffering for wan, of suffic tent food. The two oldest start off early every morning 10 work in tobacco factory two miles from town, where they work until three o'clock, and earn l2 cents each per day. They are paid every Saturday. This is all the family have 10 live upon, and the poor little boys eat no meat at all, and no- thing during the whole day, but the bread before they start off in the morn, ing. They never beg, but drink grea, deal of water down, when they feel so hungry. I know i, hurts them-so says the mother. We shall help them, and h we them in the Sabbath school.
