HOW MAY REMEMBERED.

May Matthews dear little girl, but she
very often forgot to say Thank you" or please"
and many other things"
One day mother said GLOW can you make
yourself stop doing these naughty things and
learn to do right and polite things?"
y know" said May. "I'll name each one of
my hngers and thumbs; then I'll be sure to re
member"
SO she named one "Thank YOU" and one "Tf
You Please" and one "Put Away Your PIav-
things" and one "Be Kind to Baby" and one
Don't Make a Noise" Then every time she
looked at her dear little hands she thought of the
thlngs she must do and the things she must not
do, until she became very Thoughtful child WIZ
do you think of her p1an?-Our Little Ones.

If you strike thorn or rose,
Keep a-goin'l
If it halls or if it SHOWS,
Keep a-goin'l

When the fish amt on your line:
Bait your hook and keep on tryin'-
Keep a-goin'!
When the weather kills your crop,

When you tumble from the top,
Keep a-goin'!
S'pose you're out of every dime,
Gettin' broke amt apy crime;
Tell the world you're feelin' prime
Keep a-goin'!
When it looks like all is up,
Keep a-goin'l
Drain the sweetness from the cup.
Keep a-goin'l
See the wild birds on the wingl
Hear the bells that sweetly ring!
When you feel like singin', sing
Keep a-goin'!

LONESOME
Mrs. Welch Wanted to Be
 Taken Back

This is part of story touching the escapade of Mrs. Fred Welch who ran away from her husband in Seattle and came to this city as stowaway on the transport Buford, was followed a-d taken back by her husband on the Cot tage City. It is chapter that conflicts with the appearance of reluctance manifested by the woman as to her re- turn south. The Seattle Times, of 8 date prior 10 the husbands arrival here says:
 Mrs. Anna Nelson, the husbands mother, has just received a letter, writ ten by Evelyn to her husband. It tells of her presence in SSagway and is from woman heartsick and homesick. She says she is sorry for what she has done; that she is awfully lonesome. "There is nobody to talk to-" she plaintively adds. It is known that she had no money when she left home, and what her soldier lover gave her could not have been enough to maintain her long. The letter does not give the details of her escape aboard the Buford.
 Mrs. Nelson has forwarded the letter to the young wOman's parents at Pen- dleton, Ore, for the writer indicates that she is ashamed of her action and upon leaving the boat at Seattle she will leave at once for her parents home.
 "The intention of Mrs. Welch to leave Skagway on the first boat she could board, would indicate that she probably left that place before her husband land. ed. Mrs. Nelson says that, for her part, .he young woman can go home so long as she does not claim the child. She is doubtful, however, that her son will give up the erring woman without a strong effort to win her back
