For the thirteenth time the famous
little Columbia Pad Calendar makes its
annual and welcome appearance. The
1898 issue is not only brightly illus
trated outside and inside. but filled
with chosen thoughts and verses from

Columbia Calendar. Then at the end
OF the year the calendar may be pre-
served in the form of a diary and re-
1erred to at any time as a reminder of
past events. The illustrations are
