h. Her first Sunday in Christ!

There was no sunshine, neither was there rain. Just a hush of all
things, and sweetness everywhere.

After breakfast Ruth and Marion lolled on their cots and studied the
programme, while the other two made hasty toilets, and announced their
intention of going to Sunday-school.

"What in the name of sense takes you?" queried Marion, rising on one
elbow, the better to view this strange phenomena.

"Why I have a mission," Eurie said. "About three thousand people have
been talking all this week about teaching a few Bible verses to some
children to-day, and I am going to find out what they are, and what is
so wonderful about them. Besides, I was taken for a being named Miss
Rider, and on inquiry I find her to be what they call an infant-class
teacher, so I am going to hunt her up and see if we look alike and are

the comfort of everybody else, made a seat full of ladies crowd a little
and make room for her. Rows and rows of little people with smiling faces
and shining eyes! It was a pretty sight. Eurie gave eager attention to
the lady who was talking to them, and laughed a little to herself over
the dissimilarity of their appearance.

"Hair and eyes and height, and everything else, totally unlike me!" she
said. "She is older than I, too, ever so much. She doesn't look as I
thought Miss Rider would."

But what she was saying proved to be very interesting, not only to the
little people, but to Eurie. She listened eagerly. It was important to
discover what had been so stirring the Sunday-school world all the week.
She was not left in doubt; the story was plainly, clearly, fascinatingly
told; it wa
