Home Journal, you should look over the
magazines, papers, disabled furniture. dis
carded garments and household ornaments
which even twelve months accumulate so
wonderfully. Be brave, and do not save an

possible needs of the seventh year of which
we hear so much. Give away the best of
the old garments and sell the remainder to
the junk man. The magazines and papers
which you do not intend to have bound or
to utilize in your scrap-book, will be ca
gerly read in some hospital or other institu-
ton. Even the furniture and ornaments
will greatly brighten the dreary surround

HOW to be a Happy Old Maid.

To have so much to do that there is no
time for morbid thoughts.
To never think for moment that YOU are
not attractive, and to make yourself look as
charming as possible.
To be so considerable of the happiness of
others that it will be reflected back to you
as from a looking glass.
To never permit yourself to grow old,
for by cultivating all the graces of heart,
brain and body, age will not come upon
you.
To believe that life work has been
mapped out for YOU that it is near to you,
and TO do that which your hands find for
you.
To remember that the happy old maid is
the one member of family who, not hav
ing any other claims on her, can be Gods
own sunshine to those in sorrow or in joy.
