THE DRUMMER BOY ON THE BATTLE FIELD.
THE GOLDEN TREASURE.
The wife of the town drummer went to a church one day, in which there was a new altar piece, and over the altar was an oil painting, and before it a sculptured figure of a little angel.
What a chubby-cheeked angel it was! both in the picture on the canvas with the aureole round the head, and also in the carved wood, which was also painted and gilded.
The hair glittered like pure gold in the sunshine, wonderful to see. God’s sunshine itself is really not much more beautiful when it shimmers clearly with a purple and golden light between the dark trees, when the sun is setting.
How delightful then must be the light of God’s countenance!
