WARM AND CORDIAL NOTES.
Cold, Formal Letters That Strike the
Recipient Like Blow.

Soidt FORMAL Letters That Strike the
Recipient Like Blow.
IF people only realized how import
ant it was to put little warmth into
their letters, writes a woman who has
had a great deal Of experience, in the
New York Times. there would be
more general amiability in life" she
went on, land many more pleasant
and kindly deeds done. People who
write cold, formal letters of acknowl-
edgment are apt to say that they are
not letter writer's, and not given to ex-
pressing their feelings. But that is no
excuse. Half the time they do not
have the feeling and letter should be
written two or three times until there
is proper expression of warmth in it.
The recipient Of a gift or a favor
should put herself into an expressive
mood before she writes. and il she
thinks a few minutes she can do it.
l have received letters OF acknowledge
ment so entirely formal and without
feeling that my first thought was that
l never would do anything for that
person again and l didn't much care
il l never saw them There is usually
or there should he, some little warmth
of feeling and desire to give pleasure
in sending a gift and a cold note from
the recipient comes in the nature OF a
blow. On the contrary, there are peo-
pie who write such pretty, graceful
and pleasing little notes in response to
small favors that it gives one feel
ing of warmth all over to receive them
and an immediate desire to do as
many pleasant things as possible LOT
the writer l have known so many
pleasant little journeys and invitations
which have come to girls chleny from

SAN JOSE SCALE.
The Destructive Insect Believed
TO Have Attacked Fruit Trees
on PawtuCket Avenue.

II looks as II the dreaded San Jose
scale had reached Rhode Island, and Mr..
James M. Southwick. entomologist to
the state board of agriculture, has re-
ceived a letter from the United States
department OF agriculture. in answer to
a query.
Mr.. Southwick wished TO be sure of
the nature OF two kinds of insects he
discovered on fruit trees at the corner
of Pawtucket and Hillside avenues
The response of the national depart
ment confirms Mr.. Southwicks unpleas-
ant conclusion that one of the insects is
the dread San Jose scale.
This. as far as is known, is the first
instance of the discovery of the San
Jose scale I'm Rhode Island. although 1t
has been found i'm several places i'm
Massachusetts. The state board OF agri-
culture will keep "A keen outlook for IL.

BLOOD POISONING
Doctor LongfeI|ow Scratched
Finger While Making Autopsy
and Goes TO Hospital.

Medical Examiner A. III. Longfellow OF
the towns of Cranston and Johnston. is
at ST. Joseph's Hospital undergoing
treatment for blood poisoning, although
il is not anticipated that the result will
be serious.
DIR. Longfellow, while engaged in max
ing the autopsy on the body OF John n.
Drape. the insane patient, who was killed
at the State Insane hospital innicted
slight scratch on the middle finger of his
right hand.
He did not regard the matter seriously,
although precautions were taken which
were regarded as sufficient. The infiam-
nation, however increased and in a few
days the hand was badly swollen and =
became necessary TO treat the finger sur
gically.
DR. Longfelow therefore decided TO en-
ter ST. Joseph's Hospital and today the
surgeon i'm charge OF the case stated that
he had confidence that amputation of the
finger. which IL had been feared might
become necessary. will be avoided.

asked about his views of the governor
ship. Nothing is settled" he replied.
when do you think the candidate can
be announced?'
''I think about the evening OF Sept. 8.
This would mean that the candidate
will not be determined upon until the eve
of the state convention. Senator Platt
was asked whom the Republicans up the
state desired for governor.
PLATT's OPINION.
"The demand" he said, lis first for
Odell. and, / think, second for Woodruff.

those of his family.
