BE CAREFUL FOR NOTHING; BUT IN EVERYTHING BY PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION WITH THANKSGIVING LET YOUR REQUESTS BE MADE KNOWN UNTO GOD. AND THE PEACE OF GOD, WHICH PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING, SHALL KEEP YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.

Look on the Sunny Side,
AND OTHER SKETCHES.
IT was drawing towards evening, when a woman, carrying a large bundle of work, entered a room on the ground floor of a ready-made clothes warehouse. She was bringing back a pile of finished shirts made by machine at her own home.
There were a number of girls and women at work in the room as she entered, some employed in fixing for the machinists, or finishing off their garments by making button-holes or putting on buttons. Others were cutting out, or making up parcels of garments to give to the out-door workers. All looked tired, for the day had been hot and close, and many glances were cast towards the clock, for this last working hour seemed longest of all to the weary women.
