OLD LETTEks. Never burn kind
ly written letters, it is SO pleasant
to read them over when the ink is
brown, the paper yellow with age,
and tde hands that traced the
friendly words are folded over the
hearts that prompted them, under
the green sod. Above all, never
burn love letters. To read them
in after years is like a resurrection
of ones youth. 1'he elderly spin
ster finds in the impassioned offer
she foolishly rejected twenty years
ago, a fountain of fejuyenescence.
CHANGING oyer it, she realizes that
she was once a belle and a beauty,
and bebolds her former self in
mirror much more congenial to her
tastes than the one that confronts
her in her dressing room. The
widow indeed derives a sweet and
solemn consolation from the let
ters of the beloved one, who has
iourneyed before her to the far.off
land, from whence there comes no
message, and there she hopes one
day TO join him. No photographs
can so yiyidly recall to memory of
the mother the tenderness and de-
yotion of the children who have
left at the call of Heaven. as the
epistolary outpouring of their love,
