A LITTLE girl was recently waked in the night by a severe thunder-storm. The vivid lightning and the crashing thunder at first frightened her, and she called to her mother in alarm. Then as her mother came to her bedside the child said, "But mamma, my Sabbath-school teacher told me that Jesus could take care of me now in a thunder-storm just as easily as he did the disciples in the boat; so I won't be afraid." And she quieted down to her sleep again. The child's teacher had made a right use of a Bible-lesson, applying it practically to every-day matters. And the result showed how much of good may come from a wisely spoken word by a loving teacher, even to a child out of a Christian home where the same truth has been often spoken before. The freshness of a teacher's word may give new power to a familiar truth which the parents have by no means ignored.—S. S. Times.
