DEAR CHILDREN: We begin this week with
our little folks letters, only those under Is
years old Now I want you to remember the
letters must be written by the one sending it
it must be your own thoughts your own words,
and your own writing. Some of our big girls
have copied their letters out of books, of course
that won't do. l can tell when read a chld's
letter whether it is original or not so it is best
for all to act honest, and don't get any one to
help you, and above all things think for your
SELF The more natural a letter is written the
moro interesting it is. / have been so sorry
that L could not publish all the letters re-
ceived, but it has been impossible, tho they
have each one been read and kept, and ssthose
whose letters have not been in the paper stand
quite as good chance for the prize as tho
others. want you all to read the poetry that
heads our column this week, it is so very
pretty. should like to have given that third
little fellow" real good hugging. have had
such nice letter from Henry West; he sent
me the names of all the good friends who sent
him presents Christmas, and wanted me to
publish them, but it would take up two
columns and cannot get them in. He was
truly grateful to all, and l give you his letter
all but the names, but he has got you every
one down. AUNT SUSIE.

God Knows the Best.
Sometimes. when all lifes lessons have been
learned,
And sun and stars forevermore have set
The things which our weak Judgment here has
spurned
The things DER which we grieve with lashes wet
will fash before us out of LIES dark night
AS stars shine most in deeper tints of blue;
And we shall see how all Gods plans are right
And how what seemed reproof was love most
true.
And we shall see that while we frown and sigh,
Gods plans go on as best for you and NE;
How when we called He needed not our cry,
Because His wisdom to the end could see;
And cen as prudent parents disallow
Too much ofsWeet to carving babyhood
So God, perhaps is keeping from us now
LIES sweetest things because it seemeth good
And if some time, oommingling with life's wine
We find the NORWOOD, and rebel and shrink,
Be sure wiser hand than yours mine
Pours out this portion for Our lips to drink
And if some friend we love is lying low,
Where human kisses cannot reach his face,
Oh. do not blame the loving Either so,
But bear your sorrow with obedlent grace.
And you shall shortly know that heightened
breath
Is not the sweetest gift God gives His friends,
And that, sometimes the sable pail of death
Conceals the fairest boon His love can send;
If we could push aiar the gates fife,
And stand within, and ali Gods workings see,
We could interpret all this doubt and strife,
And for each mystery could find key.
But not today. Then be content poor heart
Gods plans, like lilies pure and white unfold;
We must not tear the close-shut leaves apart
Time will reveal the calyxes Of gold.
And if, through patient toll, we reach the land
Where tired feet with sandals loose may rest,
When we shall clearly know and understand,
think that we shall say that God knew test

Good Suggestions.

Scrap Books.-That scrap book suggestion is an
excellent one Hundreds of valuable items are
read each year and forgotten. began filling scrap
books years ago, and there now before me seven
of them, which are worth many dollars to me-
buy regular scrap books with page a foot long and
wide enough for three columns. My books eiler
gives this containing thirty-six pages, for fifteen
cents, or better bound one of ii1y-six pages for
fifty cents. The items saved in the scrap book
ought to be classified to some extent and page at
the inst of the book should be left for an index
Try it and you will regret having adopted the
scrap book system.
