DEAR howard FRIENDs-The time seems
long since favorable opportunity for COM
municating with you has presented itself,
and even now l must ask your pardon for
not placing before you letter more
worthy of your reading.
Absence in this instance does not sig
Nifty forgetfulness. My thoughts have
wandered westward many times since 1
last wrote to you all, yet the swiftly re-
volving days have brought with them so
many changes that the pleasure of giving
expression to them has been denied me.
l appreciate the kind inquiries made for
me by several members, and while thank
ing them, it affords me pleasure to well
come Romeo" not only as n new member
hut as friend of our mutual friend and
esteemed brother Hamlet"
To Occasional Visitor" l will admit
having entertained serious thoughts of
deserving the page" my principal reason
being that feel / have duties here which
Justly claim nv first attention, and in con-
sequence of which l may be compelled to
neglect my duties to the club "Wyan-

New York City, else how did you know
that my description OF Central park was
accurate?
l have promised to tell you more con-
concerning the beautiful pictures in our
Metropolitan museum of art here, but as
we have recently removed from our old
home and are not now so conveniently
near the museum, l must ask you to be
patient with me.
Strange to say, our new home Is located
near park, which, although much small
er than the great Central park near which
we used to live, is very picturesque and
beautiful.
1t looks and, in fact, ia a huge hill
whose labyrinthian walks among the
rocks and oyerhanPing foliage Lead to
high tower on the summit.
Each morning at 9 o'clock and each
evening at the same hour the great bell in
the tower peals forth, reminding us of the
rapidity of Times fight and suggesting
the wise and just employment OF the pass
ing hours
The echoes of the bell die away upon
the breeze. But the echo of a voice,
whether raised in anger or modulated bv
affection, will live in the memory, and
passing thoughts, like gentle breezes,
watt the reverberations down across the
hills of time.
Let Us strive to make our voices pleas
ant, that they may awaken echoes OF love
and cheer in every listening heart And
while our own may seem bursting with a
weight of unknown sorrow We know that
we shall be rewarded
after our time of toiling,
After our tide of tears
After our stormy voyage,
At last a port appears.
After our time OF anguish,
After our lore and loss
After test of fire,
The gold eschews the dross.
After the lens thened struggle,
After our lsfe's last nave
After pain and passion
We md quiet grave"

We smother and freeze and by inches wear our
selves to an untimely grave-all because fashion
says so.
1t is a strange circumstance that q people.
who in intelligence ana political freedom
stand first among all the nations OF the globe,
aud who are so determined in their opposition
to all human oppressors, should thus be
trampled on and weighed down by an mani
mate tyrant.
l was deeply impressed with the true
and undeniable facts set forth In this liter
arv gem. In conclusion / will add few
thoughts thereto. To be out OF fashion is
to appear outlandish. If we attend an
entertainment or public gathering and
wear our last years clothes that are out
of date and nearly everybody else is ar
raved in the prevailing fashion, we are
overcome with the decidedly uncom-
Portable feeling that we are looked down
on. And vet it is the height of folly to
spend so much time and money In dress
and the vagaries of fashion.
We will admit ladies are governed and
bend more easily to the sway fashion
than they of the other sex. Sensible
fashions are commendable when they are
not tyrannical. To Jump at every fad and
follow every fashion, no matter how silly
it may appear, is ridiculous in the ex-
IRENE, and shows q lack of proper sense.
There are many worshipers at the shrine
of fashion, and many intelligent minds
have not time for anything else; they are
fashionable society leaders and must keep
step with the ever-changing modes;
home and all that should be dear to their
hearts are sacrificed to the tyrant fashion.

requested by our secretary to change my
name, so therefore don't think it strange
when you see my new name.

been debating the badge question. have
not much to say about it, but think that
by all means we should have badge so
that if by chance we meet brother or
sister of the II. L. G.. we can distinguish
her or him and, maybe, have a long and
sociable talk. But then the real question
seems to be shall the badge be gold, silver
or OF some other metal. Dear friends,
for nv part l think that we have
as honorable and as well to do
society as was ever organized. Why not,
then, have a badge that has some resem-
blance to the society? Not one that other
societies would point the finger of scorn
at and say it resembles the members.
But, let it be whatever kind i: may, let us
one and all honor it to the greatest OF our
knowledge.
believe that some one said that we
can't get gold badge but what resembled
some other so much that it is nearly i'm
possible to distinguish them. Remember,
where there is will there is way, and
nothing is impossible.

That you are Q rafting thoroughbred,

DEAR II. L. G. FRIENDs-I will call again
a little while this pleasant evening and
chat awhile. AS the trees have come
forth arrayed in beautiful and fragrant
blossoms and with foliage bursting forth

will help deck the literary page and en-
tighten some one in darkness.
What has become of Farmers Wife ?'
1 think she might write to the page and
tell US how they are thriving up toward
the polar regions. Perhaps she lives in
some back county where they only get
mail occasionally in the early springtime
on account of the abundance of water in
the "Croakers' habitations," which has
not yet been carried upward by the rays
from the shining face OF "Old SOL" We
have no trouble here on that account, for
no sooner has the sparkling drops left
their abode and descended to mother
earth than they begin a race down
the steep hillside to join myriads OF others
on their journey to the ravine below. and
