Friends In Council.
Gil seem to be more closely bound by
friendships ties than any organization of
like nature. Each one has some specially
appropriate and beautiful memento of
each annual meeting. Among these are
exquisite china cups. On one SIDE these
are lettered F. l. &c E. K. to --
May 1885, Diagonally across The other
side is the motto Friendship above all
ties does bind the heart" In each saucer
is Browning sentiment One of these
is take what is Trust what may be,
that's life's true lesson" These cups
and saucers were the gift of Mrs. Ken
dali. Each member of the Friends In
Council is also the possessor of a beauti-
full medallion head of Dante, a Christ
mas gift from Mrs. Edward Wilder;
Dante having been the clubs study for
sometime. And thus each gift has its
own significance.

Mr.. Charles E. Prather, editor of the
Meriden Ledger, is in the city
Mrs. G. w. Wood has calendar which
is the embodiment of one of the prettiest
ideas imaginable. A young lady friend
conceived the idea of numbering aud
dating 365 sheets of paper and sending
them broadcast among Mrs. Woods
friends and acquaintance, asking that
each one write a sentiment either origi-
nal or quoted, and return to her. Some
of the sheets she prepared herself, but
the larger number went to relatives
and intimate friends. When they were
returned to the originator of the idea, she
had the sheets properly arranged, sized
and blocked and fastened firmly to a
water color paper background painted in
pretty design. As a result, the recip-
lent has every day a message from an
absent friend The sentiment for today
seems especially appropriate to those
who know Mrs Wood 1t is so friend
whose heart still keeps its prime, whose
bright example warns and cheers, you
teach US how to smile at time, and set TO
music all his years."
